As a widely used material across the globe, cement has a massive environmental footprint and accounts for around eight percent of our CO2 emissions, but scientists hope to eat into this problem by making tweaks to the recipe. A research team has now co… Continue reading Novel cement uses discarded clay to cut carbon footprint by two thirds
Eco-conscious campers living the “leave no trace” way of life might like to minimize their impacts on the places that they visit, but that can become a little tricky when it’s time to make fire and food. A new solo stove from Japanese outdoor gear make… Continue reading Martian Kayak camp stove uses a slide-in fire bed for nice clean cooking
Scientists at Australia’s RMIT investigating the massive untapped potential of wave energy have come up with a novel design for a convertor they say operates with far greater efficiency than comparable solutions, and which they hope could open the door… Continue reading Counter-spinning turbine design draws double the energy from ocean waves
The field of nuclear fusion has seen some exciting advances of late, with scientists demonstrating how fuels can be heated to the temperatures needed for the necessary reactions to take place. All are working towards a version of the technology where t… Continue reading High-powered laser closes in on nuclear fusion ignition

As electric vehicles continue to gain in popularity, one thing we’ll have to deal with down the road is mounting piles of batteries that have reached the end of their lives. Casting their eye toward this future, scientists at Oak Ridge National Laborat… Continue reading Robotic system dismantles EV batteries for recycling 10x faster

Recent advances have put some interesting possibilities on the table when it comes to tackling hair loss, from topical solutions packed with stem cells, to 3D-printed hair farms, to growing hair with a patient’s own cells. Scientists in China are now t… Continue reading Microneedle patch beats baldness by boosting blood flow to the follicles

The concept of a home ground advantage, where teams play in familiar surrounds in front of their own adoring fans, is broadly accepted as having a major bearing on match-day performance, but exactly how much benefit does it bring? To dig into this ques… Continue reading How stadiums emptied by COVID halved football’s home ground advantage
