A new method of lighting based on how fireflies produce light has been discovered by scientists at Syracuse University. Their quantum nanorod chemical lighting system could one day replace LEDs and run without electricity - just like fireflies, only...
Free energy, or zero-point energy has been lately linked with the Universe's dark matter. Although not yet determined experimentally, dark matter could be behind scientists' latest discovery talking about neutrons and a parallel world that they have been determined...
The best way to fight carbon emissions is, of course, not to produce them in the first place; but if you can’t help generating some, what do you do? The answer comes from UK researchers: you "cage" them!
The NOTT-202...
Did you ever stop to think why electric cars are more expensive than regular ones? Ok, it's the technology, but what about it exactly? The answer lies partly in the heating/cooling systems of the car, an aspect A123 Systems...
A cheap solar panel system will forever be the best solution to expensive electric bills. Solar cells are getting cheaper each year.
While you could pay up to $10,000 for an off-the-shelf installation and could cover the system's price in just over...
The Nest thermostat has been waited by everyone, despite the scandals with Honeywell, the company who said that Nest stole their patent and applied it into an Apple-inspired intelligent thermostat.
Now, the Nest smart thermostat is selling on Amazon for...
A new study performed by UC Irvine researchers and their colleagues reveals that the carbon stored in U.S. forest soils could be easily released in the future if temperatures will continue to rise.
By analyzing forest soil in Wisconsin and...
A new analysis reports that China’s carbon emissions could be 20% higher than earlier expectations, which suggest that there is a very high rate of climate change due to this. As it emerges as one of the newest superpower...
The production of biofuel is considered a bandwagon today due to its many benefits to machines as well as to the environment. However, two scientists are challenging the popular belief that biofuels are clean sources of energy. A recent...
Thin-film solar cells have a relatively low efficiency. Even fancy silicon ones which can reach 11% don't satisfy us. So what are researchers around the world doing to please us?
Spain, for example, is trying pretty hard to be in...
