A glimpse of the future

Posted by David Beard, Boston.com Staff March 30, 2008 10:59 AM

Not able to make the huge exposition of eco-friendly ideas and products closing today at the Hynes Convention Center? Or want to take a glimpse before making the trip?

Here are a few snapshots from the big Down:2:Earth show over the weekend. The event also featured panels with speakers such as ''The End of Nature'' author Bill McKibben.

The event was big on alternative transportation (think Vespas) and innovations like pin-free cloth diapers and even green burial techniques. For more on THAT, check out this Globe article by Mark Pothier.
