Scientists have underestimated how much snow accumulates in North America

Would you believe that after many years of intensive study, performed by some of the most brilliant experts in their respective fields, that there’s still a lot of stuff that’s currently unknown about water in relation to the Earth itself? Indeed, that seems to be the gist of a recent report which showed that previous […]

A new metal-organic framework could help reduce carbon emissions produced by the petrochemical industry

A newly developed metal-organic framework (MOF) could help reduce the amount of carbon emissions produced by the petrochemical industry, according to a study published in the journal Advanced Functional Materials. One of the most important challenges in the chemical and petrochemical industries is segregating molecules in an energy-efficient method. In fact, the separation processes make […]

Cool multi-use invention: Street lamp powered by dog poop has proven to be a successful green energy and waste management combo in the U.K.

From littering walkways and streets to illuminating them, dog poop may soon be fueling streetlamps across the United Kingdom. That’s already happening in Malvern Hills, an iconic landscape in England and home of the United Kingdom’s first dog poop-powered street lamp. The brainchild of Brian Harper, a member of the environmental group Transition Malvern Hills, […]

Beer as a renewable fuel: Vehicles could run on it 2022, without having to be altered

Beer could soon replace diesel and gasoline as a promising source of sustainable motor fuel by 2022, thanks to chemists who developed a method for converting the alcoholic beverage into a new type of fuel without the need to alter the vehicles. Scientists from the University of Bristol have managed to create fuel from beer by converting […]

Scientists develop clean fuel using CO2, proving again how essential carbon dioxide is to human life

Researchers at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory say they have made a breakthrough in clean energy in relation to the process of converting carbon dioxide (CO2) into fuel using photosynthesis. In their experiment, published in the Energy and Environmental Science journal, the U.S. Department of Energy scientists at the Berkeley lab were for the first time […]

Deforestation impacts climate change more than fossil fuel use, new study finds

Curbing the use of fossil fuels is often singled out as the best way to tackle climate change, but a new study published in the journal Environmental Research Letters shows that the problem of deforestation should not be overlooked as it contributes far more to climate change than once believed. The new paper, which is […]

New science reveals “consensus” theory of how Earth was formed is TOTALLY WRONG… but scientists are sure they’re not wrong about anything else

A new scientific discovery debunks the popular “consensus” theory of how the Earth was formed. Researchers at the Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris simulated the formation of the Earth’s mantle and discovered a zinc to sulfur ratio different from current thinking. The discovery suggests that the Earth was NOT made from solar system materials, as scientists have […]
