Farmers’ markets, sometimes called greenmarkets, are markets, usually held out-of-doors, in public spaces, where farmers can sell produce to the public.
Farmers’ market produce is renowned for being locally-grown and very fresh. People argue farmers’ markets allow farmers to pick produce at the peak of flavor, preserve the nutritional content of fresh [...]

Nature ha pubblicato uno studio tedesco secondo cui nei prossimi 10 anni avremo una temporanea diminuzione delle temperature dovuta al raffreddamento delle correnti atlantiche, evento che avviene naturalmente ogni 60-70 anni. In termini di tempi del pianeta dieci anni non sono che un battito di ciglia, dal 2020 le temperature riprenderanno a salire come previsto [...]

A spidery fungus with a voracious appetite for military uniforms and canvas tents could hold the key to improvements in the production of biofuels, a team of government, academic and industry researchers has announced.
The fungus T. reesei rose to dubious fame during World War II when military leaders discovered it was responsible for [...]

Renewable, synthetic automotive fuels will guarantee future mobility. Synthetic biofuels, also known as BtL fuels (Biomass to Liquids), are largely CO2-neutral and therefore play a major role in protecting our environment and climate. SunDiesel®, one of the range of SunFuel® products, is currently being introduced to the public arena in conjunction with Daimler AG and [...]

«Parlando di energie rinnovabili molto chiacchierate ma poco coltivate, è inutile insistere con l’energia eolica perché di vento ce n’è poco nella Penisola al contrario dei Paesi del Nord o dell’Irlanda. Anche la biomassa rappresenta una nicchia limitata. Invece il sole è l’unica sorgente che abbiamo abbondante e ancora da sfruttare. Noi, con [...]

In a letter to the italian newspaper Corriere della Sera Corrado Clini, chair of the Global Bioenergy Partnership, defends biofuels from the critics of being responsible for recent food rises. Clini points out how ethanol and second generation biodiesel derived from cellulosic biomass or algae, whose availability is predicted to be within 10-15 years, will [...]
