Here’s a weird bit of news that’s sure to affect people’s experience at the 2010 FIFA World Cup in a few months: A company called the Kelp Environmental Learning Project (K.E.L.P) has introduced an environmentally friendly vuvuzela.  Here’s a video about it:

Apparently the group, based in Kommetjie, South Africa, use dried kelp horns to create vuvuzelas which are painted and branded.

I’m still not entirely convinced that vuvuzelas should be allowed at the World Cup matches, but if you insist on bringing one, now you have a cool “green” option. And heck, I bet you can make a nice bowl of soup out of it when your done too!
