Amazon Goes Green

Description

In the past 40 years culture has become disposable with our world’s massive adoption of gizmos. Most of us do not give a second thought to the great electronics graveyard, where the majority of our gadgets end up. Thankfully, Amazon is making a dent in the issue with a new portal that is specifically designed to encourage customers to recycle, repair, and return devices, as well as to buy quality pre-owned and refurbished devices. The program, entitled Amazon's Second Chance, was launched on America Recycles Day. The program makes it possible to clear out all the electronic clutter we accumulate over the year and to grab some great gear at reduced prices.

  • Ecuador Begins Drilling for Oil in Amazon Nature Reserve

    This lush expanse of Amazon rainforest, close to the Yasuni Nature Reserve, will be home to an oil drilling operation from Ecuador's state oil company Petroamazonas for the first time ever, which seeks to tap into the large Tiputini oil field. Ecuadorian Vice-President Jorge Glas was present to inaugurate the drilling of the oil reserve, the biggest in the Andean country. The Tiputini field is expected to produce 1.67 billion barrels per year. After years of debate, Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa's government gave state-owned oil company Petroamazonas the green light to drill in the Ishpingo-Tambococha-Tiputini (ITT) block, just outside of the Yasuni nature reserve. Environmental activists had called for a referendum on the decision but this was denied by the Correa government. The decision has been met with criticism from indigenous-rights and environmental groups.

The latter connects the device to the car antenna and charges it inductively. Amazon Alexa and the Audi connect key, which authorizes the customer to lock and unlock the car and start the engine via their Android smartphone, will follow shortly after the market launch.

  • VIOLENT SATURDAY Clip from the Eureka Entertainment Dual Format (Bluray & DVD) release

    A coolly riveting crime saga from director Richard Fleischer (The Boston Strangler, Soylent Green), Violent Saturday tells a brutal noir tale against blazing, sun-drenched Arizona landscapes.
