Designed for the year 2030, the Aero Truck is a concept designed by John Shercliff. It is based on the aerodynamic perspective, which is helpful in increasing the fuel efficiency when the truck travels over long distances at high speed.

PinkCloud has designed an innovative and eco friendly Oil Silo Home, which reuses existing empty oil silos, redefining their purpose altogether. These oil silos can actually be transformed into an affordable housing option for many families around the world, and particularly so in the times when oil becomes a scarce commodity. Not only would it be easy to assemble and disassemble an Oil Silo Home, it will indeed be durable and strong for supporting the house.

Apparently, the concept of the ‘Fibrous Towers of Multiple Natures’, has its foundations in the Austrian architectural practice called, Soma. The project redefines the nature of skyscrapers in an urban landscape, biomimetically. This implies that the design is calibrated to remain in sync with nature, and at the same time, adjusts to provide a comfortable living to its inhabitants.

Apple appears to be taking its green responsibilities very seriously. It has now announced that it is constructing what is billed to be the United States’ biggest end user owned solar array, which will have the capacity of producing renewable energy worth 42 million kilowatt hours every year.
Sonia Renthlei:
Unlike in centuries past, modern art can be created out of virtually anything. Many artists are ditching the usual paint, brushes, stone and clay and are working with materials that sculptors of the world wouldn’t have given much thought to. The result is artwork that’s interesting and unique and makes for stunning contemporary installations.

The use of photosynthesis in the production of biofuels is something we all have heard of, but how this process can be more potentially utilized, still remains under explored. The present indices about the low efficiency of photosynthesis show that with major crops like wheat and rice, we barely manage to squeeze about a five percent energy yield. But, this picture can be swapped by turbo charging the process of photosynthesis.
Sonia Renthlei:
The state of the world today is one of congestion. Everywhere you turn, automobiles clog the roads emitting huge amounts of noxious fumes. In urban areas, not a day goes by when one doesn’t encounter a traffic snarl. But, we can’t very well continue in this vein; health problems will increase, the number of road accidents will rise and the environment as a whole will continue to be disrupted. What is to be done then to reverse the present condition?

Petroleum is an ingredient used in many modern products ranging from pharmaceuticals to plastics. Once the sources of petroleum have been exhausted, how are we going to produce the petroleum based products to meet our demands? The answer is given in the research published by Professor Krijn de Jong and his team.

As the time moves on new developments can be seen in the field of technology. Every new innovation is always better than its predecessor and new records are set regarding efficiency. Keeping up the trend, an International chemical group Solvay now claims to have created the world’s largest PEM (Proton exchange membrane) fuel cell. The one megawatt hydrogen fuel cell has been set up at SolVin chlorine plant in Antwerp, Belgium. Used for industrial demonstration it produced power of more than 500 megawatts per hour and has been generating energy at this steady rate for two months, operating for 800 hours. The energy produced by the cell is enough to power 1370 homes for all that time.
Ishan Sidhu:
Recycling has become a global trend in today’s world. In the past we have seen lots of sculptures made out of recycled paper, automobile parts etc. and every artist or designer has looked forward to create a unique product by reusing something, which has lost its value. Going green, this time Australian artist, Sean Avery, has created unique sculptures using old and shattered CDs.
