hubcap creatures - art from debris

swordfish7.jpg

hubcap2.jpgReclaimed, recycled and repurposed hubcaps and other metallic debris form the raw materials of these fascinating works of sculpture. Designed by Ptolemy, each piece is created solely from found materials and thus may show the scars of their previous life-cycle. Pictured above is a commissioned work.

Works range in price from roughly £110 to £550

    Does anybody know about this site ( http://www.earthlab.com ) ? I have seen other environmental sites with carbon calculators like yahoo and tree huggers, but I am wondering what the deal with earthlab.com is, is it credible? I saw they also published a list last month of the top ten greenest cities (http://www.efficientenergy.org/Top-Ten-Green-Cities-in-the-United-States). Does anyone know if this site is better than say WWF site? Fill me in

    I took their carbon foot print test and it was pretty interesting, but they said that I put out 4.5 tons of carbon while another test gave me like 15 tons? I think I trust earthlab.com’s test a little more (because my score is lower). Does anyone know about any other tests?
