The UK Design Council's RED team has added more ideas to the Future Currents site Dawn told us about in October. Check out their ideas for home energy monitoring, ranking and rewarding goods and services, and distributed power -- along with five ideas from top global design groups.

Readers can then vote on which ideas they'd like to see happen. Many of them are quite good, and seem easily implementable. RED uses a scenario approach with many of the products, providing a news clipping from the future describing a little bit of what the world looks like when the product or service is available.
