All of you innovative crafters and great thinkers out there, listen up.

MAKE tells us that Yahoo is on a mission to find groovy green products to bring to market. They’re turning to you, dear readers to make things green—which also happens to be the name of this clever, new program.

Make it Green” will cull together all of the submitted DIY ideas—and then choose what they think is the best. The selected green idea will then hit store shelves—leaving you to collect a portion of the eco-royalties, score $2,500 and potentially win an appearance on the PBS show Everyday Edisons.

Click over to the website to get the details and feel out what others are submitting. Spotted entries include a solar clothes dryer, light switch reminder, and plant fiber diapers. If you don’t already have an idea in mind, scour Planet Green's host of DIY projects that will help get the creative juices flowing.
