Eco-Friendly Father's Day Gifts

Father’s Day is right around the corner, and for those of you who have left it until the last minute, there’s still time to get dad a gift. There’s even time to make it an eco-friendly one. Instructables.com offers advice on how to transform your push mower into a solar-powered grass eating machine.

Perhaps when dad’s done he’ll be able to cool off with a beer from his new organic home-brewing kit. And after a healthy meal from the local farmer’s market, he might just have to loosen his belt...made from recycled tires. If you’re generous, you can also treat him to a computer case that will charge his laptop and cell phone using solar energy. Or you can scale back, and just get him a solar powered razor...for all those super-green dads who shave outside.
