Are you thinking about buying a hybrid vehicle but can’t come up with the cash right now? The Kiwi Fuel Saving Device is a gadget that can help you save money at the pump, and at the same time, optimize your vehicle’s fuel efficiency, reducing the output of global warming CO2.  As long as your vehicle was manufactured after 1996, plug the Kiwi into your on board diagnostic port, located by your steering column. The Fuel Saving Device uses a sensor that will analyze what areas of your driving are wasting gas mileage.

Every day, the Kiwi will show you how gas you’ve saved compared to the last trip you took. On average, users notice about a 20% improvement in MPG in as little as a few days.

If you prefer a simpler sort of phone gadget, the Motorola Renew might be just the ticket. The Motorola Renew is the first phone made of recycled products, made from plastic comprised of recycled bottles.  Twenty percent less energy is used during production, compared to standard plastic processes. The Motorola W233 Renew is also the world’s first carbon neutral phone.

Moreover, the Motorola Renew comes with an in-box postage-paid recycling envelope so that you can ship off your prior phone for recycling.

So is there a downside to this eco-friendly technology? Well, if you’re the iPhone type of user, don’t expect to replace your fancy, schmancy multimedia phone with the Motorola Renew, as its list of features are far more limited.

The Motorola Renew will supposedly launch in February 2009, with T-Mobile USA as the first carrier to subsidize it.

Looking for a new way to reduce your carbon footprint? With over 165 million home computers in the United States alone, electricity is used and abused on a much larger scale – translating to over 5 million tons of wasted C02 from idle computers.

However, the eco-button, a new green gadget for your computer, is making wasted energy from idle computers obsolete. Each time you leave your computer, you simply press the eco-button and your computer is put into ‘ecomode’ which ensures that both your computer and monitor draw only the same power as when they are shut down. Bear in mind, you are not shutting your computer down – you can press any key on your keyboard to return to where you left off.
