Rick's Journal: Greenbuild Day Two
What’s that old line about a carrot or a stick?
As most of you may know, I’ve been pretty much a carrot guy my whole professional life, opting to try to motivate those around me to do better and achieve more, rather than scaring them into it. But don’t think for a minute I don’t see the occasional wisdom in the other, sterner and much more in-your-face style of attitude adjustment.
As such, I found myself utterly blown away during an afternoon session at Greenbuild 2016 yesterday during a presentation by the world-renowned polar explorer, author, photographer and documentarian, Sebastian Copeland. Copeland, whose life and work on global climate change, and in particular, carbon’s impact on the earth’s ice cap, is the stuff of legend. He spent an hour giving a roomful of us some of the absolutely toughest love I’ve ever seen dished out at Greenbuild.

This Brilliant Chair Solves The Inescapable Problem Of Being Too Hot Or Too Cold At Work
If you're at work right now, you're probably too cold. Or too hot. If you have a working thermostat nearby, there's a good chance that it's the thing you disagree about most with the person sitting next to you. It seems like an intractable problem, because people inherently prefer different temperatures. A 2015 study found that women get cold much more quickly than men. (It also pointed out that most offices still use a decades-old formula for setting temperature that's based on the average man, which is why men are a little more likely to be comfortable.)
The Taco-Shaped Chair You Never Knew You Needed
We all have those moments when we wish we could just hang out in bed all day long. Well, there’s a furniture line that is practically made for those Netflix-and-chill moods.
Enter, the Blandito, the lazy person’s dream chair-cushion-pad thingy. Made of malleable materials, it’s basically a flat pillow that can fold up and be secured into whatever shape you want it to be — the top pick being a cuddle taco (or clam?), of course. Made by Oradaria Design, the Blandito molds into the desired shape and is then secured by two wooden tapestry balls. Once you’re set up, you’re not going anywhere. So, you can feel like you got out of bed, but not really.
This TV Is Hidden Within A Pullout Rack
