Students from TU Eindhoven have recently presented a car almost entirely made out of waste materials .
Items like PET bottles , plastic from the ocean , and household waste items were reused to create the car .
A group of 22 students collaborated to construct new materials by combining the waste with horsehair , coconut fibers , and flax .
The waste material car has been named De Luca .

Last year, animal rights activists infiltrated a farm in Victoria, Australia, and captured horrific footage of a farmer mistreating animals. In one video that was later released by the animal rights group Aussie Farms, the farmer can be seen shooting baby goats in the head and then dumping them like trash into a bin just days after they were born. The animals were reportedly killed as a part of a “mass cull.”
Chris Delforce, director of the activist group Aussie Farms, told Yahoo News Australia that baby goats are routinely killed on many farms because they are considered a waste product.
“The baby males are considered a waste product – this is the dark side of the dairy industry that the industry doesn’t want to acknowledge. They keep it secret from consumers. Like humans they don’t lactate without first giving birth. The babies are taken away from the mothers. If they’re males they’re useless and killed, if they’re females they’ll be put into the cycle to replace the milkers,” Delforce said.
Other videos released around the same time by the group Animal Liberation Victoria, showed a different Victorian farmer bludgeoning baby goats to death with a blunt object. Once these videos went viral, many people were surprised to learn that these practices are entirely legal.

truththeory--2020-10-21--Scientists Can Now Build Renewable Fuel Cells From Spinach

In a major step for green tech , scientists have taken regular grocery store spinach and turned it into the catalyst for a renewable and efficient fuel cell !
Scientists have been working with spinach in various capacities , trying to harness its powers like Popeye .
This proof-of-concept renewable fuel cell is the latest achievement .
Lead scientist Shouzhong Zou , a chemist from American University , along with his team has been able to exploit the high density of energy-generating molecules found in spinach .
It can have great applications in industrial use , reports Ars Technica .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ last month .
Usually , carbon-based catalysts for fuel cells perform better than platinum .
But when scientists used salted spinach blended and dried as nanosheets , they were more efficient than even platinum .
The lightly-salted spinach blend had to be treated with heat into layers of the nanosheets for the renewable fuel cells .
In a press release , Zou explained how this research suggested that sustainable catalysts are possible to be created from natural resources to create oxygen reducing reactions .

In a major step for green tech, scientists have taken regular grocery store spinach and turned it into the catalyst for a renewable and efficient fuel cell! Scientists have been working with spinach in various capacities, trying to harness its powers like Popeye. This proof-of-concept renewable fuel cell is the latest achievement.
Lead scientist Shouzhong Zou, a chemist from American University, along with his team has been able to exploit the high density of energy-generating molecules found in spinach. It can have great applications in industrial use, reports Ars Technica.
The research was published in ACS Omega last month. Usually, carbon-based catalysts for fuel cells perform better than platinum. But when scientists used salted spinach blended and dried as nanosheets, they were more efficient than even platinum. The lightly-salted spinach blend had to be treated with heat into layers of the nanosheets for the renewable fuel cells.
Future of Renewable Fuel Cells
In a press release, Zou explained how this research suggested that sustainable catalysts are possible to be created from natural resources to create oxygen reducing reactions.

“The method we tested can produce highly active, carbon-based catalysts from spinach, which is a renewable biomass. In fact, we believe it outperforms commercial platinum catalysts in both activity and stability.”

While this experiment was a success, it will take some time for spinach to be used in the real world. This research just proves that the concept of using natural resources like spinach can actually produce favorable results. In the near future when green tech keeps expanding, experts believe spinach cells will be the more sustainable alternative. Renewable fuel cells could be powering a variety of electronics, including electric cars.

LAFD Chief, Ralph Terrazas, stated that he could afford to lose one of these wondrous firefighting robots but not a firefighter. The RS3 is a suitable alternative to enter blazing buildings and ignition sites. They can pacify massive explosions without human casualties as acknowledged by L.A. City Councilwoman, Monica Rodriguez.
RS3 in Action
RS3, the firefighting robot, proved to be a game-changer when firefighters were withdrawn from the building with a raging fire on Tuesday. The robot is a smart car-sized and can easily enter through double doors. With the plow front, it drove into the burning structure with ease and brought the situation under control. RS3 made it possible to quell such a destructive fire by spraying water from within.
The firefighting robot acts as a human substitute and strides straight into the center of the fire site. Several high-definition and infrared video cameras act as the eyes and ears of the fire department and locate targets and source of the flames.
It was a RoboCop moment when the RS3 stomped past the firefighters, into the ravenous fire. Experienced firefighters were hypnotized.
This firefighting robot has a huge capacity of discharging 2,500 gallons of water or foam per minute. During a demonstration, Terrazas admiringly said that the force of the spray can blast off walls and roofs. Water can be sprayed vertically from the cannon and function as a sprinkler system. Such multi-function systems can greatly improve the ways of tackling fires.
It released thousands of gallons of water, during a demonstration and shoved a Chevy Celebrity like a USC lineman with the help of its plow. Though it is designed to function in urban areas, it can easily mount a 70-degree slope.
A firefighter can remotely operate the RS3 firefighting robot or be tied to it. It can operate for 10 hours with the help of the heat-shielding equipment. It can haul up to 1,750 pounds on the 5,000-pound crane.
In case you missed it, we’re excited to introduce the RS3! Your #LAFD is deploying the first robotic firefighting vehicle and it already got dirty at this morning’s major emergency fire.

Firefighting Robots Across the Globe
The technology of the RS3 is also applied in Iraq, Afghanistan, and many other nations around the globe. Many oil companies have registered to acquire such fire extinguishing robots.
Howe and Howe Technologies is the creator of the RS3 and the chassis, which is used to detonate improvised explosives devices. The chassis has already been tested and approved as a durable robot to disarm IEDs.

The Los Angeles Police Department bomb squad also possesses a BatCat, a 39,000-pound remote control vehicle, with gigantic telescopic arms and looks like a forklift truck on steroids.
The firefighting robot has been allocated to one of Los Angeles’ busiest part, Fire Station 3. It is a part of the Urban Search and Rescue team. RS3 was acquired by non-profit fundraising that raised $272,000. With the help of the major donor, Elon Musk, the RS3 was added with a plow, bells, and whistles. Terrazas confirmed that RS3 can reach any part of L.A. in a short time and eagerly wait to see how it functions.

Since then, there have been a handful of individual clowns who have impacted on our collective consciousness.
The curse of a clown families
One such clown was Joseph Grimaldi, who performed in theaters in England during the late 17th and the 18th centuries.
Grimaldi took the profession to the next level and introduced the white-painted clown face which remains today, together with bright costume and blue hair.
What marked him out further was the contradiction between his stage persona and his real life character. At work he got people to laugh and have fun. But in reality, he suffered severe depression.

The curse continued when his wife died at childbirth and then having pushed his son into life as a working clown, the son died from alcoholism at the age of 31.
Grimaldi later suffered from pain which left him disabled to a degree. He subsequently died after his own battle with alcohol.
Later, author Charles Dickens, allegedly inspired by Grimaldi’s son, furthered the myth of the miserable clown when he wrote The Pickwick Papers in 1836.
At a similar time in history in France, another infamous clown emerged called Jean-Gaspard Deburau, or more commonly known as Pierrot.
The story went that Pierrot, enraged by a rude child, picked up a stick and delivered a fatal blow. Pierrot was later exonerated, yet the story still added to the theory of nasty clowns.
Pogo the serial killer
It was taken to a completely terrifying new level in the 1970’s in America with Pogo the Killer Clown.
The American serial killer performed at children’s hospitals and charitable functions, calling himself ‘Pogo the Clown’ or ‘Patches the Clown’. He subsequently raped, tortured and killed at least 33 young men in the Chicago area.
It’s therefore no surprise that there have been numerous clown-themed horror movies since then. There have also been several real-life copycat clown killers.
