Kite Powered Cargo Ships
In terms of great eco ideas, this has to be the best one I've seen. By attaching a computer controlled kite to cargo ships crossing the Atlantic, freighters can save up to $2,000 a day in fuel costs or 35% of their overall fuel consumption. It's amazing how sometimes the best answers to our biggest questions are the simplest. Keep that in mind as you think about how you're going to change the world.
