What is with all the Green Drinks? First, 360 Vodka, then Great Lakes Beer… Now the Bota Box? One thing is becoming very clear. Green People are Drunks.
Except me…
The other day, the Mrs. and I were wondering through Kroger when we spotted a couple tell tale signs of a green product. First, a [...]

I was shopping at Generation Green in Columbus, Ohio the other day and Mrs. Green Gear pointed me to something I’ve been looking for for a while. A recycled boot tray for indoor or outdoor use made by DII.
I hate coming in from the winter cold and getting dirt and water everywhere. Even if i [...]

I like to spend a lot of time outdoors. When i’m not reviewing green products or otherwise being busy I enjoy Camping, Running, Hunting, Fishing, and Hiking. All in all, I enjoy nature.

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 [...]

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 [...]

Break from Reviews! Happy Weekend.
Just a few weeks ago I finalized the method and criteria I use to evaluate and rate products. To go along with that here is a long video of me opining on that very subject. And yes, since you are thinking it, I was really tired when i filmed this.

Its the time of year that people address their bodies of government on the “state” of things. So here is my address on the State of Green Products. Enjoy.
The Peculiar Rise of Green Products
As a person who has always been interested in retail goods and retail buying trends the influx of green products into mainstream [...]
