Four years of engineering brainpower and hundreds of hours spent building a practical solar car will be put to the test when The Flinders Automotive Solar Team (FAST) set out on a 3,000 kilometre journey across the outback in the 2019 Bridgestone World Solar Challenge.
The largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in British Columbia is transportation. Scientists at the University of British Columbia (UBC) have designed a hydrogen supply chain model that can facilitate the adoption of zero-emission, hydrogen-powered cars—converting them from a novelty into daily transportation in merely 30 years.
The type of vegetation and land use has a vital role to play in water retention and runoff. Along with scientists from the U.S. and the UK, researchers from the Leibniz-Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries (IGB) have created a mathematical model that can reflect the complicated interplays between soil, vegetation, and water regimes.
Sulzer Schmid, a Swiss company pioneering UAV technology for rotor blade inspections, and NNAISENSE, a world leading artificial intelligence specialist, have partnered to develop an artificial intelligence engine to automatically detect rotor blade damages on wind turbine.
So far, it has been nothing but the wishful thinking of numerous plastics recyclers that recyclability is taken into consideration directly from the very start of a product’s life cycle, at the design stage of a product. A new project is aiming to make this dream a reality.
Scientists at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) in Germany, in association with colleagues from the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg in South Africa and the University of Dar-es-Salaam in Tanzania, were successful in using cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) as a replacement for petroleum in organic synthesis.
A discovery made by researchers challenges earlier beliefs of the relationship between the polar Southern Ocean, next to Antarctica, and the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Climate change tends to either elicit end-of-the-world anxiety or brazen cynicism. Jason Hubbart, Director of Institute of Water Security and Science at West Virginia University, offers a more pinpointed approach.
Researchers from Swansea University have found how plastics commonly found in food packaging can be recycled to create new materials like wires for electricity – and could help to reduce the amount of plastic waste in the future.
Recycled Karma Brands, LLC, a Los Angeles based premium apparel fashion company, has introduced The Green Label, a collection of eco-friendly sustainable fashion --making environmentally conscious clothing the fashionable choice.
