We are a fountain of ecology. We have corridors in our hearts that connect us to our humanity; our songs that are heavenly, and food that tells a story. There is so much worth fighting for to exist and flourish. Let us drain the well of capital and build a wealth of knowledge. -qbv
In an ideal world we'd all be plants and gather our energy exclusively from the sun, but unfortunately we need to invent a lot of technology to do so. These advances in solar panel technologies could bring us significantly closer to this goal.
Hawaii's largest city, Honolulu, passed a bill banning plastic food containers, straws, and most plastic utensils on the island of Oahu.
The new technology called a bilevel equalizer is the first hybrid that combines the high performance of an active equalizer with the low cost of the passive equalizer.
Interesting read and the scientist behind this research seems like an awesome person with a really powerful story. Check it out.
Highlights:
An electrical engineer at The University of Toledo, who nearly died as a girl in Africa because of a hospital's lack of power, has developed a new energy storage solution to make battery packs in electric vehicles, satellites, planes and grid stations last longer and cost less.
The new technology called a bilevel equalizer is the first hybrid that combines the high performance of an active equalizer with the low cost of the passive equalizer....
Experiments have shown that the bilevel equalizer increases the discharge capacity of lithium ion batteries by about 30 percent, and the pack lasts longer because the cells are balanced...
Mubenga understands the life-changing power of electricity. When she was 17 years old in her native country of the Democratic Republic of Congo in Africa, she waited three days for surgery after her appendix burst because there was no power at the hospital...
She started studying renewable energy at the UT College of Engineering in 2000 and earned a bachelor's degree, master's degree and PhD in electrical engineering. After earning her professional engineer license in Ohio, she went on to found her company called the SMIN Power Group, which develops and installs solar power systems in communities throughout the Democratic Republic of Congo.
"My passion is deep," Mubenga said. "In places like that small town of Kikwit, if you have solar power, you can have electricity and save lives. “
Another factor fueling Mubenga's research motivation is a connection between her native country and lithium ion batteries.
"Most of the minerals for today's electronics are mined in the Democratic Republic of the Congo," Mubenga said. "The Democratic Republic of the Congo is a leading producer of cobalt, copper, gold, diamond, tantalum and tin in the world. Indeed, the Democratic Republic of the Congo contains about 50 percent of the world's reserve of cobalt, a mineral used to make lithium ion batteries."

Earth Nation is network of change agents who seek to transform our current power-centric based society into a equality-based culture…
This is SOOO Dope. This is my first time so, I am posting this link for the second time to test out this site, but still, check out these solutions to global problems. Sustainability can be applied to all areas of life, this helps spread it across the globe.
Re-connecting to the little round ball that we are part of
"So we are living on this little round ball, and shaping it fast, and have forgotten about it. Which is not very smart for a species that calls herself/himself homo sapiens- the ‘smart monkey’... so I think it is really high time to connect our value systems and worldviews, and the way we operate, to the little round ball and this thin layer of life that we are part of.”
Carl Folke from the Stockholm Resilience Centre
Structural waste on the mobility system via Ellen MacArthur Foundation report Growth Within: A circular economy vision for a competitive Europe
‘Structural waste is prevalent in the large, mature sectors on which this study focused. Consider mobility, a century-old sector, where very capable manufacturers have optimised products continuously. This sector captures 15 percent of the average European household’s spending. The European car is parked 92 percent of the time – often on valuable inner-city land. When the car is used, only 1.5 of its 5 seats are occupied. The deadweight ratio often reaches 12:1. Less than 20 percent of the total petroleum energy is translated into kinetic energy, and only 1/13 of that energy is used to transport people. As much as 50 percent of inner-city land is devoted to mobility (roads and parking spaces). But, even at rush hour, cars cover only 10 percent of the average European road. Yet, congestion cost approaches 2 percent of GDP in cities like Stuttgart and Paris.’
