Now, instead of having the choice of whatever coffee you want, you pay almost a buck per hit of their choice of brand, and a little plastic, foil and paper turd to throw in the garbage after. In the end, in the name of convenience, we have a machine that creates a captive audience for an overpriced proprietary coffee system that creates unnecessary waste.

Nissan LEAF: Gas Powered Everything. What a fantastic promo vid; love the poke at the Chevy Volt in the last few frames.

ITWorldCanada's Green Issue

I play the role of your standard town curmudgeon in Kathleen Lau’s feature article on Green IT. Seriously though, businesses don’t necessarily have to spend wads of cash to be green — in many cases, technology infrastructure is used so inefficiently that just cutting this slack will go a long way in reducing energy and resources consumption.

Canadian tech geeks, enjoy this good over-coffee read.
