This nanoparticle coating also allows the temperature within the engine to be raised, which would increase fuel efficiency — resulting in decreased fuel use, and reduced emissions. The new technology is also considerably cheaper than current conventional ones.

The plan is being rolled out in select European countries, and could offer Millennials all the benefits of car ownership without being tied to the vehicle. The plan is being rolled out on the new Citroen C4 Cactus crossover, which is being offered with two types of pricing plans. The traditional flat rate plan costs 199 euros per month for 36 months, and includes insurance, maintenance, and 45,000 kilometers, or about 30,000 miles of driving. Pretty standard stuff here, right? It’s a pretty good deal, wrapping maintenance and insurance up in the cost, but you’re still looking at about $275 a month.

The Baumquadrat (Tree Cube) is a small room in the trees that can be used for relaxing, sleeping and playing. Depending on the size and stability of the trees in your backyard, the structure can stand on stilts or be suspended in the trees. The cube measures 2.30 x 2.50 x 2.50 meters with 80mm thick walls, and the interior and exterior façade is paneled with larch wood.
Baumraum recommends that the Baumquadrat be installed about 3 meters above ground, and it can be assembled out of several modules. The ladder rails are made of galvanized steel with larch rungs, while the roof is topped with sheet metal.

Regardless of creed, ethnicity, or tax bracket, everyone must breathe the same air. This week, the World Health Organization announced that air pollution was responsible for seven million deaths globally in 2012. It is also the single largest preventable health risk worldwide. Both indoor and outdoor particulate matter is to blame for illnesses such as stroke, heart disease, respiratory infections, lung cancer, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Not just harmful to human bodies directly, much of the pollution also contributes to the acceleration of climate change and its catastrophic affect on agriculture, the economy, and biosphere.
According to the WHO, air pollution is responsible for one death in eight every year. Overall, 4.3 million deaths worldwide were linked in 2012 to indoor pollution primarily due to cooking with coal, dung, or wood stoves. Outdoor pollution from diesel engines and fires were linked to 3.7 million deaths. Many populations are exposed to poor air quality in both settings, causing a degree of overlap within the aggregate figure of seven million deaths. Further chronic health risks such as birth defects and impaired cognitive abilities in children add to the already sobering statistics.

“You know that it is a tradition in the tunnel boring industry to name the machine after woman,” Premier Christie Clark began. “We are here today to christen this machine Alice, after Alice Wilson, who was the very first woman they ever hired in the Geological Survey of Canada.”

Every year on this day since 1993, the community of nations has focused on the importance of fresh water and advocated for the sustainable management of freshwater resources. Severe droughts experienced recently in places like the American West, the Horn of Africa, Russia, China, and Australia have highlighted the fact that humans are rapidly using up the world’s freshwater supplies—and when they’re gone, they’re gone. We are spending one of our most vital resources in greater volumes every day.

As Mr. Robinson watched the day-to-day coverage of the catastrophic event, he began to formulate a resilient design that would be able to withstand the strong forces of a tsunami. After sketching his tsunami-ball design with Adobe Illustrator and consulting a few engineers to confirm the structure’s potential buoyancy, he began to work on its construction.
Since the initial idea, Robinson has spent the better part of two years and up to eight hours a day building the 22-foot-long, 10-foot-wide, 8.5-foot-high wooden capsule, which is made of interlocking pieces of plywood and epoxy. Recently installed with portholes, the buoyant structure was inspired by oil-derrick escape pods and a Canadian artist who builds tree-hanging wooden spheres as hotel rooms.
Once work on the oval storm shelter is complete, the gaps within the plywood skeleton will be filled with buoyant foam and the boat will be equipped with an electric motor and a structural keel. Solar panels will also be installed and connected to batteries. Robinson hopes to finish his ambitious project in May followed by one very hopeful test run in the Pacific Ocean.
