Fave Resource #1
I love the Real Goods catalog. I think it’s because I can find both a suitable wedding gift (like recycled maple measuring spoons), a huge variety of solar panels, organic cotton bathrobes and a stovetop water distiller, all in one place. They also have those cool backpacks and bags with solar panels on them that I so want so I can go hiking and power up my laptop while I walk mountain ridges.
