Say it isn't so! An extension cord cast from real tree branches?

It's called the Electrici-tree, and it's a "three-branch daisy-chainable rubber extension lead." In Laiman's terms: it's an extension cord. It can be plugged in, chained up, or strung along the wall.

Designed by Vahakn Matossian, the idea behind the Electrici-tree is that "it's a physical representation and reminder of how much electricity we are using...and what we are polluting with our over-use of power."

So, I guess he wouldn't like the fact that we're using power while on our computers nine hours a day writing about gadgets and tech, eh?
