Rainforest Portal Top 5 Exotic Free Energy Technologies From PESWiki Shortcut URL: See also News:Best Exotic Free Energy Technologiesand Tracking the Position of the Top 5and Directory:Best Exotic Clean Energy Technologies This page is devoted to featuring the top five exotic technologies that we know of that are closest to market. Here at PESWiki we cover the entire spectrum of clean energy technologies, from conventional methods such as solar, wind, geothermal, tide, wave, river on the one hand; to very unconventional or "exotic" technologies such as cold fusion, magnet motors, overunity electromagnetic motors, gravity motors, and vortex technologies on the other. There are many ways to harness the wheelwork of nature -- energy sources that the environment provides free for the taking -- that are not only clean but inexhaustible and ubiquitous. Conventional renewable energy (there are 25 genres) has made great strides but has limitations. Runners Up Spreadsheet Best Exotic Clean Energy Technologies In the News
Monsanto’s Dirty Dozen: The 12 Most Awful Products Made By Monsanto When you take a moment to reflect on the history of product development at Monsanto, what do you find? Here are twelve products that Monsanto has brought to market. See if you can spot the pattern… #1 – Saccharin Did you know Monsanto got started because of an artificial sweetener? After mounting pressure from consumers, the Calorie Control Council[5], and manufacturers of artificial sweeteners and diet sodas, along with additional studies[6] (several conducted by the sugar and sweetener industry) that reported flaws in the 1970s studies, saccharin was delisted from the NIH’s Carcinogen List. #2 – PCBs During the early 1920s, Monsanto began expanding their chemical production into polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) to produce coolant fluids for electrical transformers, capacitors, and electric motors. After another decade of studies, the truth could no longer be contained: the U.S. #3 – Polystyrene #4 – Atom bomb and nuclear weapons #6 – Dioxin #7 – Agent Orange (Think that can’t happen here?
Il était une forêt Le langage des arbres © FranceInfo Les forêts primaires se trouvent au stade final de leur évolution. Il faut 700 ans pour atteindre ce point d'équilibre ultime. Le film nous montre comment lentement au fil des siècles se tisse ce réseau de connexions complexes entre végétaux et animaux. Dans ce réseau, les arbres jouent un rôle bien plus important qu'il n'y paraît. Au fil de l'évolution, ils ont par exemple développé des capacités de communication. IL ETAIT UNE FORET - Bande-annonce VF © CoteCine Quel genre de message les arbres s'envoient-ils entre eux ? Des messages d'alerte par exemple. Si les arbres peuvent faire fuir certains animaux, ils savent comment en attirer d'autres ? Ce sont des charmeurs. Rien n'est trop beau pour appâter ces animaux transporteurs. Quel genre de son ? Prenons l'exemple du Moabi, l'un des plus grands arbres des forêts humides africaines. Les arbres peuvent faire venir les éléphants, ils peuvent aussi faire venir la pluie.
Living Light Sculpture Reveals Air Quality of Seoul Check out how a retro glass sculpture maps the city’s air quality ! In the center of Seoul ’s Peace Park , which is located across from the Korean World Cup Stadium, lies a very extraordinary sight: an outdoor glass canopy called the Living Light Sculpture. Created by Soo-in Yang and David Benjamin of The Living , and commissioned by the Korean Ministry of Environment, this amazing sculpture is more than just a fantastic piece of art. It actually projects up-to-date information about surrounding cities and their air quality. The glass skin on the sculpture is a map that covers 27 local neighborhoods, and every 15 minutes certain sections light up to tell you which city has the best and worst air quality. The coolest thing about the sculpture is that you can send a text message of a certain area code to the Living Light Hotline, and then minutes later you’ll receive a reply back that tells you the area code’s air quality. digg
The Importance of Drinking Rather Than Smoking Cannabis Cannabinoids can prevent cancer, reduce heart attacks by 66% and insulin dependent diabetes by 58%. Cannabis clinician Dr. William Courtney recommends drinking 4 – 8 ounces of raw flower and leaf juice from any Hemp plant, 5 mg of Cannabidiol (CBD) per kg of body weight, a salad of Hemp seed sprouts and 50 mg of THC taken in 5 daily doses. Cannabis – whether Sativa, Indica, Ruderalis, male, female, hermaphrodite, wild, bred for fiber, seeds or medicinal resin – is a vegetable with every dietary essential we can’t synthesize: Essential Amino Acids, Essential Fatty Acids, Essential Cannabinoid acids and hundreds of anti-Cancer compounds. Cannabis clinician Dr. “If you heat the plant, you will decarboxylate THC-acid and you will get high, you”ll get your 10 mg. “The amount of Cannabinoids we need would be difficult to get through smoked Cannabis without feeling the intoxicating effects,” said Kristen Courtney. Hemp juice has lowered blood pressure an average of 10 points within 2 hours.
ENVIRONNEMENT • L'Indonésie, championne de la déforestation L’archipel a détrôné le Brésil en tant que premier coupeur d’arbres de la planète. La forêt primaire y disparaît deux fois plus vite qu’en Amazonie. Et les autorités du pays sont impuissantes à enrayer ce processus. Quelque 0,84 million d’hectares par an. C’est le rythme auquel disparaît la forêt indonésienne, selon une étude parue dans Nature Climate Change le 29 juin. Entre l’an 2000 et 2012, le recul des forêts primaires est estimé à plus de 6 millions d’hectares, essentiellement à cause de l’activité des industries de la pâte à papier et de l’agroalimentaire. Ces coupes franches dans les forêts primaires et les tourbières boisées de l’archipel, observées par des images satellites, augmentent les émissions de gaz à effet de serre et nuisent de façon drastique à la biodiversité. Or “les forêts indonésiennes abritent 10 % des espèces végétales mondiales, 12 % des mammifères, 16 % des reptiles et 17 % des oiseaux”, note The Age. Virginie Lepetit
