Responsible solutions
for people who care
PET-like plastic made from plants
Researchers used non-edible plant parts to create PET-like plastic that can be naturally recycled.
Growing food without sunlight
Scientists discovered a way to grow food even in the dark via artificial photosynthesis using carbon dioxide, electricity, and water.
Atom laser that can run forever
A team of researchers from the Netherlands created a beam of atoms that behaves like a laser and can theoretically run forever. The atom laser has potential applications in physics and engineering.
Human echolocation: the ability to detect surrounding obstacles by sensing echoes
Study shows that after a 10-week training, sighted and blind humans can echolocate or detect surrounding obstacles by sensing echoes from those objects.
Nuclear fusion’s clean energy to potentially power our planet
Nuclear energy from fusion could be an infinitely-abundant energy resource that will end our dependence on fossil fuels. Plus, it’s efficient and sustainable.
Eco-friendly cement made from algae
Scientists create limestone from algae to produce cement that is not only free from carbon emission, but also uses up carbon dioxide in the process.
Airbus hydrogen hub
Airbus partners with gas firm Linde to develop green hydrogen hubs at airports.
Aevum: solar race car for the world solar challenge
Aevum is designed to accommodate the demands of the World Solar Challenge.
Glow-in-the-dark concrete
The concrete building material would help cut down on the power used for street lighting and road signage.
Biobatteries: dust-like size and self-healing
Biobatteries can keep these devices powered every time — even in remote locations.
