A.M. Greenlist: Smart ideas

Pink >> Very cute bicycle helmets! Unfortunately, they're made and sold by a company all the way in the UK. They're also rather expensive. (via Treehugger)

>> Inexpensive eco-fashions are on sale at Barneys right now, but here's another option for cheap environmentalists: Crow Clothing offers clothes made from eco-friendly fabrics on a sliding scale. (via Lazy Environmentalist)

>> How to bring smart growth to your city. Experts name a variety of ways you can take action as an individual to encourage less sprawled, more vibrant cities.

>> Smart Faucet: A small gadget for your sink to help save water. Potential shortcomings I see: The gadget won't prevent the waste that happens when one runs the water waiting for it to warm up, and the gadget might get in the way if you wash your face in the sink. I haven't tested it out myself though. Anyone tried it?

>> A photo gallery of endangered and threatened species at the Chicago Tribune. I had no idea so many bear species were doing so badly.
