Great Lakes Beer Review by Green Gear

by mrgreengear on 20 January, 2009

Mr. Green Gear really enjoys beer. Not so much in quantity, but in quality. Sure, I’ve put down more than my fair share of Natural Light, but as I progress in my elder years I’ve begun to drink less, and less of better and better beer. Not bad huh?
Here in Ohio, some of our better [...]

by mrgreengear on 19 January, 2009

swiffer me this…. You get a call from a Realtor saying they would like to show your home… that’s great, but what do you do when they want to look at it THE SAME DAY and your house is far from clean? Well, if you’re the Green Gear family, you bust out a platoon of [...]

Grenware Biodegradable Dinnerware Review by Green Gear

by mrgreengear on 18 January, 2009

A few months ago i received a promo plate from a company called ecosource who had started making complete dinnerware out or recycled rice hulls. I’m pretty sure I got this because my name was on a list to attend a green conference, which I ended up not going to. Instead of simply [...]

Method Wood For Good Wipes Review by Green Gear

by mrgreengear on 14 January, 2009

Mankind hath always enjoyed the look and feel of wood.  It is a sign of strength, power, durability, and elegance.  Its difficult to imagine a world where wood played a lesser part.  Our buildings, our furniture, our fire, and our fences.  The Red Wood Forests, Log Cabins, Ships, and the entire state of Oregon would [...]

Klean Kanteen 18oz Water Bottle Review by Green Gear

by mrgreengear on 7 January, 2009

Ahh, The reusable water bottle.  The vexillum communis of treehuggers everywhere.  Reusable water bottles landed on college campuses in 1997 with greater force than Ani Difranco, and since then they have become more and more popular.  Nalgene lead the way with those hidious giant watter bottles that people kept dangling from their north face backpacks [...]
