Five silliest not-so-green inventions

The trend of living an eco-friendly lifestyle and using eco-friendly products seemed to have caught on in the past few years for the benefit of our nature and environment. As a result, a wide range of eco-friendly devices has been invented with an aim to lessen our dependency on non-renewable power sources and also to decrease the pollution. However, besides wind turbines, solar panels or electric cars, there have been many other petite inventions that support our natural environment in strange ways. So, here is a short list of some of the strangest green inventions ever made:

Eco Button

This eco button with a picture of earth emblazoned on it can be called as one of the silliest invention made under the category of eco-friendly products, although its function can hardly be accounted as an environment savior. If you have this eco button, all you can do is send your laptop or computer into sleep mode by pressing it. However, the same function can also be performed by using the very simple drop down menu of your computer.

Solar fan hat

This fan hat that runs on solar power must have been invented with an aim to amuse people around you because even the most depressed person will laugh seeing it on someone’s head. It is still unclear why it is called as a green innovation as it hardly does anything to help the natural environment. Moreover, the air it generates with the small solar panel placed right on top of the hat can be generated by simply waving your hands.

Solar powered bra

Did you even know that you could charge up your cell phone by simply wearing a solar powered bra, although this undergarment will be applicable only on the female population? This bra has two cup holders like normal bras and also an electronic billboard unlike any other bras for charging your cell phones. As bizarre as it may seem, we cannot rule out the fact that it may come in real handy if you are lost in the middle of a desert.

Blood lamp

If you are ready to shed a drop of your blood, then only you can light up this blood lamp as this bizarre lamp needs a drop of blood to light up. It might take a real genius to figure out why it was even invented but it may attract a lot of vampires.

Hybrid SUV

Claimed as a green innovation, this hybrid SUV instead falls short of everything that might have helped our environment. This hybrid SUV has the worse gas mileage and also needs a lot of virgin resources to run. So, it seems like someone has got a lot of nerve to even call it eco friendly.
