Have you watched the documentary, “An Inconvenient Truth”? Well, I must say that viewing it certainly jolted some folks into action to help clean up the earth. As for Japan’s Atsuhiro Hayashi, he decided to take a different direction – by offering silicone ice cube “molds with a message” which will create a solitary frozen cube at a time. The white one will result in a polar bear, while the black one aptly churns out a pair of penguins.
These ice cubes will probably look so nice, you might think of it as an affront to see them melt. Why not let them bob about gently in your favorite beverage, with the inevitable coming as they melt into oblivion, letting you pause for a moment and wonder whether you have done all you can to make sure our earth will still be able to sustain such life in the arctic and antarctic?
These ice cube cups won’t come cheap though, but then again at the moment, going green had never been affordable. The Polar Ice environmental ice cube cups will retail for $31.30 for each set.
