As darkness slowly envelops your landscape, other strange things start happening outside your bedroom window, too. Leaves begin to change position and flowers that were closed during the day start to open and emit nocturnal fragrances....

On Stanley Jevons And Led Lights

In a recent post on LED lighting, I raised the spectre of Jevons Paradox, paraphrasing Stanley by saying that “It is wholly a confusion to suppose that more efficient lighting leads to diminished consumption. The very contrary is the truth.” Stanley Jevons wrote his book “The Coal Question” in 1865, at a time when there was some worry that Britain might run out of coal. It was then used to power very big and inefficient steam engines that pumped water out of mines; when James Watt developed his steam engine that used 75 percent less coal than the Newcomen engine it replaced, the common thinking was that the increased efficiency meant that they would burn less coal....

Were Any Animals Harmed In The Making Of My New Down Comforter And Feather Pillows

Question: Were any animals harmed in the making of my new down comforter and feather pillows? Answer: Funny you ask considering that I’m fielding this query in a horizontal position directly from my down, feather and hypoallergenic fiber-filled (more on this later) advice headquarters. One has to tackle the hard-hitting questions in resplendent comfort, am I right? Down Is Plucked From Waterfowl Given that there is no magical factory in the sky that makes feather and down — the fluffy, insulating undercoating of quill-less feathers located underneath the tougher outer layer of feathers belonging to ducks, geese and other waterfowl — it’s most likely that the heavenly filling in your comforter and in those pillows was directly plucked from a real, live (well, ideally not live) bird....

Where Our Kitchens Came From And Where They Are Going

This is a series where I take my lectures presented as adjunct professor teaching sustainable design at Ryerson University School of Interior Design in Toronto, and distill them down to a sort of Pecha Kucha slide show of 20 slides that take about 20 seconds each to read. How did kitchens get to be how they are, and where are kitchens going? Certain things go in and out of fashion (like bright yellow appliances) but other things seem to never change....

Why Dogs Hoard Things

Some dogs stash away their things. They tuck stuffed animals into the couch cushions or roll tennis balls under the bed. They might even hideaway pieces of their kibble in a laundry basket or bury them in the backyard. But other dogs swipe stuff that doesn’t belong to them. They might take off down the hallway with your sock, some mail, or your phone charger. Dog owner @francesaemming recently had a moment of Twitter fame after she shared photos of her dachshund Flynn nabbing everything from remote control and a candle to a pillow and a cutting board....

Why We Don T Need Electric Cars But Need To Get Rid Of Cars
