Being Ed
While he's well known and respected for his work in the acting realm, Ed has never shied away from his roots in environmental activism. Tailoring his lifestyle to be eco-friendly and green thinking, Ed's house is a concrete example of his innovative, if not asthetically-ambivilent, lifestyle.
On Living with Ed, he chronicles the daily going-ons in the Begley household. And these episodes include the disagreements, most often about Ed's eccentric environmental creations such as the latest water catcher or sun-powered oven.
Yet for all those Ed admirers out there who still aim to create a more eco-friendly environment, here are a couple quick products that will help renovate your home, Begley-style.
- The Greenswitch Got a whole lot of electric vampires sucking your wallet dry? Then get rid of all these nonessential plug-ins with the Greenswitch. This powerful remote control switch shuts down all those energy-sappers off when you leave, keeping only those important appliances on, like the alarm clock or the answering machine. This great energy saver retails for $1,125.00.
- Rain Barrels Save water the old-fashioned way, with a few of these plastic gallon-catchers. Know that all your water will be going to good use, and it helps recycle. Rain barrels are available in different sizes from 20 gallons to the whopping 65-gallon models. Single barrel prices start at $114.95.
- Solar Light Lightning Why leave the front light on forever? Take advantage of the brightest free power source: the sun! Light your walkway or houseline during the day, and by night have a perfectly lit, charged walkway perfectly visible for guests or late night activity. The Hampton Bay package of 6 retails for $49.00 each.
- Professional Weather Center Need a more accurate weather forecaster rather than the goofy network guy? Want to know if you need to put out your rain catcher barrel or sun powered oven? Meet the Professional Weather Center, the latest technological marvel in barometric measurements. Gauge everything from wind chill to forecast to weather alarms and storm warnings. The Professional Weather Center retails for $159.95
- Wellness Shower Tired of showering with overly hard, soft, or harshly chlorinated water? The Wellness Shower aims to give you a shower with "water the way Nature intended it". Effectively reducing up to 99 percent of chlorine and increasing hydration of the skin and hair by 155 percent are surely impressive statistics. But enjoying the chemically-free shower? That's sure to leave a clean feeling no matter what. The Wellness Shower costs around $249.00.
