Hello everyone.  I’m Nino, the editor and co-founder of EarthTechling, an online consumer publication about green technology located in the Hive. I’ve been here since the beginning of September.  We are growing pretty fast and I’m turning to you, the Leftbank Project community, to help us out with some fresh story ideas.

We cover all matter of green technology topics including, but not limited to, green gadgets, wind farms, solar power, wave energy, electric vehicles, hybrids, green architecture and so forth.  You probably get the idea.  What I’m looking for are ideas that your business, or you personally, are involved in or aware of which might be interesting for my readers.  If the story idea pans out, I’ll give you credit on my site as the origin point.  Locally based ideas, such as Portland’s biogas project, are fine as I’ll use that to address as an example of something which can be done on a national level.

Please shoot me your ideas to my email address.  Thank you for your help on this.  Cheers!

Our newest Hive member, Jonathan Maus (Editor-in-Chief of BikePortland.org) recently interviewed Upstream’s Mel Rader about his involvement in a Transportation Seminar Series at Portland State University which investigates links between transport (greenhouse gas emissions) and health.  You can check out this interview here.
