I have learned of many ingenious eco-architectural designs, but none have looked quite as spectacular as this entry into the 2008 Evolo Skycsraper Competition.
Planned for the northern coast of Chile, the 400 meter tall coiling tower collects the moisture from the unique coastal fog known locally as “Camanchaca“. The water molecules are trapped, then funneled
Perhaps eco-newb is a bit much. The gentleman in the story after all does sell locally grown produce. Those of us green minded folk, who are subconsciously drawn to exploring the unlimited resourceful ways of minimizing our contribution to pollution, are often times reminded just how gratifying our work of educating on sustainable ideals can [...]
ZapRoot is a weekly webcast show from ViroPOP, a green pop network, and is the next generation approach to educating the asses on how to live greener. Host Jessica Williamson enlightens us with some of the more uncommon yet fun ways to be green. Yes she is gorgeous, and yes she talks about sex toys a lot!
Check out this attractive building of sustainable proportions set to be built in Chicago. It comes equipped with wind turbines and solar panels.
First we had hybrid-busses and then plug-in hybrid busses, and now a no-plug-in hybrid wirelessly rechargeable bus? Say what? So the terms may need tweaking. From Tokyo, check out this interesting new project by Hino, a subsidiary of Toyota. Before the majority of society can even ingest the news of a prospective electric-car-future, we have a design that can keep a battery charged without having to stop, plug in, and “fill up”. But, as EcoGeek pointed out, the available wireless energy transmission technology is rather inefficient. So to actually make it a truly green project would mean the source of the energy providing the grid would have to be solar power or some other efficient energy production.
Read the dark and concealed history of water fluoridation at fluoridealert.org and witness the statement originally signed by 600 professionals in 8/07, now at over 1,500 signatures @ fluoridealert.org statement.
This is how industrial waste byproduct becomes profit by the phosphate industry by exporting the pollution to your local water districts.
Both fluorosilicic acid (FSA) and [...]
Far from what I would consider an objective report, this was quite deliberate at the expense of Aptera and the viewers who were denied a more informative report, not to mention a technology that can, you know..sorta save mankind and all… no big deal.
Researchers at Idaho National Laboratory, along with partners at Microcontinuum Inc. (Cambridge, MA) and Patrick Pinhero of the University of Missouri, are developing a novel way to collect energy from the sun with a technology that could potentially cost pennies a yard, be imprinted on flexible materials and still draw energy after the sun has set.
