University of California, Berkeley, innovative nonprofit group GridLab and nonpartisan energy and environmental policy firm Energy Innovation: Policy and Technology. Published Thursday, the report showed that rapid advances in the technology and cost of batteries would allow all new U.S. vehicles to be powered by electricity by 2035. And if new car and truck sales rapidly shift to electric, consumers would save up to $2.7 trillion by 2050. Plus, it’s possible to charge those electric vehicles (EVs) on an electricity grid that uses 90 percent clean energy. This would help reduce air polluti...

https://www.afinalwarning.com/514481.html (Natural News) Single-use plastics like plastic bags and plastic bottles could provide airplanes with the fuel they need to fly. In a recent breakthrough, a team of researchers from the  Using an energy-efficient process and a novel catalyst, they were able to break down polyolefins. The versatility of this family of polyethylene and polypropylene thermoplastics makes it one of the most popular plastics. In fact, polyolefins currently account for up to 70 percent of all plastics. But polyolefins are more difficult to recycle than other plastics. ...

Made of a special type of paper coated with a compound called titanium nitride oxide, the material heats rapidly and vaporizes water when exposed to the sun. The resulting water vapor is then condensed and collected via a container with a sloped quartz roof. The researchers found that water desalinated using the technology contains lower levels of salt than ordinary drinking water. They added that the desalination unit can be rapidly deployed in remote seaside areas without access to potable water. The findings of the study were published in the journal AIP Advances. Breaking down the ...
