Treehugger Tuesday. Wearable windmills.

Posted by Andrea on March 9th, 2010. Filed under: eco-friendly, environment, treehugger tuesday.

So, this here contraption can generate enough wind power to illuminate led lights or a small electrical device.

Imagine what you could do if you strap this to your over-active children? It could solve the childhood obesity problem AND lower our dependence on conventional electricity in one fell swoop, don’tcha think? Just load your kids into one of these  and let ‘em rip around the yard for a few hours, or better yet have them ride their bike…down a big hill. You can tell them that they can’t watch TV until they’ve generated enough electricity to power an episode of Spongebob.

I find this dandelion design oddly delightful. I think little girls may dig it if it were more colorful. For boys, though, we’d we have to redesign it to look like rocket boosters or something.

You think this gizmo could qualify for some of the federal government’s green energy funding? I could TOTALLY see Obama and Biden rockin’ one of these.
