Better Place is a project of Shai Agassi, he said a mission, to achieve sustainable transportation, global energy independence and freedom from oil. Better Place does not makes cars but embraces a joint venture with Nissan – Renault which are building zero-emission electric cars and exchangeable batteries.
Better Place network will provide [...]

The Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) was called for by the United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan in 2000. Initiated in 2001, the objective of the MA was to assess the consequences of ecosystem change for human well-being and the scientific basis for action needed to enhance the conservation and sustainable use of those systems and their [...]

Researchers at HP Labs create the memristor — short for memory resistor – could make it possible to develop far more energy-efficient computing systems with memories that retain information even after the power is off, so there’s no wait for the system to boot up after turning the computer on. It may even be [...]

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 [...]

ScienceDaily (May 2, 2008)
Scientists confirm computer model predictions that oxygen-depleted zones in tropical oceans are expanding, possibly because of climate change. An international team of physical oceanographers including a researcher from Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego has discovered that oxygen-poor regions of tropical oceans are expanding as the oceans warm, limiting the [...]

The case of Darfur, a forbidding piece of sun-parched real estate in the southern part of Sudan, illustrates the new Cold War over oil, where the dramatic rise in China’s oil demand to fuel its booming growth has led Beijing to embark on an aggressive policy [...]
