Students awarded for reusable paper-and-ink design - 2 Apr 2010

Seventh grade students Anika Patel and Angela Riggins of Washington, USA have been named as winners from among 14,000 participants in the 2010 ExploraVision Awards, sponsored by Japan-based electronics company Toshiba. With a mutual love of scientific experiments, the two teens designed an eco-friendly printer system that conserves resources by removing ink from paper, thus facilitating reuse of both materials.

They said they were inspired by the gecko lizard, whose unique feet are specially adapted for sticking to surfaces. Thus, the printer rollers are designed to be able to reverse their electrical charge, with the ink that was sticking to the paper being released and stored for re-use.

The regional award for their futuristic concept has qualified the two youths for a national competition.
Our green hats off, Anika Patel and Angela Riggins for your ingenious development and deserved distinction! Wishing you continued inspiration and the joy of discovery in such humanity- and Earth-enhancing technologies as these.

California, USA, adopts new rules to save aquatic life - 9 May 2010

California coastal power plants have been instructed to reduce their impact on marine wildlife by phasing out a process known as "once-through" cooling. In its circulation of billions of gallons of ocean and estuary water every day, this process has been inadvertently destroying countless fish, larvae and eggs, as well as causing the loss of 6２,０００ endangered delta smelt every year.

Following a nine-hour public hearing, the Water Resources Control Board voted unanimously to adopt new regulations for the state’s １９ power plants, which are being offered alternative cooling methods such as closed-cycle cooling systems or other structural changes.

Many thanks, California state regulators for your commitment to protecting the health of aquatic habitats. May such eco-friendly processes become the norm for the flourishing of all life in California's waters, and beyond.

Scientists say carbon storing is not a viable solution - 16 May 2010

With countries like Britain, Australia and the US poised to implement carbon capture and storage processes (CCS) in an attempt to reduce global warming, a research paper from Houston University in the United States is casting doubts on the practicality of such plans.

The paper states first of all that it would require a reservoir the size of a small US state to contain the carbon dioxide produced by even one power station.

Co-authors Drs. Michael Economides, professor of chemical engineering at Houston University, and Christene Ehlig-Economides, professor of energy engineering at Texas A&M University, go on to assert that previous models of CCS are inaccurate because they assume a constant pressure from the carbon as it is stored in underground rock structures.

In fact, the pressure on surrounding rock will likely become so intense in places that it would cause fractures, with the escaping carbon eventually migrating back to the surface.
The paper concludes by stating, "(CCS) is not a practical means to provide any substantive reduction in CO2 emissions, although it has been repeatedly presented as such by others."

In response, the British Geological Survey has affirmed its intention to quickly review the findings and produce a peer-reviewed analysis.

Drs. Economides, Ehlig-Economides and all participating scientists, we are grateful for your careful evaluation of the urgent matter of handling carbon emissions. May we be guided to planet-cooling actions that bring a lasting revival of our ecosphere.

Supreme Master Ching Hai often urges for the most effective way to solve global warming, as during an international gathering with our Association members in February 2008.

Supreme Master Ching Hai : Everybody knows by now, from the UN Report that meat eating, animal raising, it’s one of the worst factors, or even the worst factor of global warming.
And nobody talks about it. Everybody says, okay, new energy, biofuel, hybrid car, dig a hole and store the carbon. As if it will not bust one day.

What is so difficult, to put down one piece of meat, and replace it with one piece of tofu. Which is exactly the same, better nutrition. Better for your health. More economized.

Solar-powered “boat of bottles” returns to dock in Australia - 28 Jul 2010

The sixty-foot catamaran, Plastiki, constructed from about 12,500 discarded plastic bottles and equipped with sustainable solar panels, arrived in Sydney, Australia on Monday, July 26 following a four-month voyage that began in San Francisco, USA. Expedition leader and environmentalist David de Rothschild, said the journey was motivated by a 2006 United Nations report warning of the perils of plastic in the world’s seas as it stated that every square mile of the oceans contained 46,000 pieces of floating plastic debris.

Voyaging 8,000 nautical miles, Mr. de Rothschild along with 5 other crew members endured storms and other challenges on the journey. They also witnessed first-hand the North Pacific gyre, a place where some 3.5 million tons of discarded plastic has gathered in an enormous current and clustered together in a swirling mass of waste the size of Texas, USA.

Saying that this debris now represents a real threat to marine life, World Wildlife Fund Policy Manager for Marine Species Lydia Gibson stated, “Plastic garbage, which decomposes very slowly, is often mistaken for food by marine animals.

High concentrations of plastic material, particularly plastic bags, have been found blocking the breathing passages and stomachs of many marine species, including whales, dolphins, seals, puffins and turtles.

Plastic six-pack rings for drink bottles and cans can also choke marine animals.” As one example of the unimaginably horrific effects of this marine waste, the stomach of a rare eight-meter Bryde's whale discovered perished on an Australian beach was found to be jammed with almost six square meters of plastic, including supermarket bags, food packaging, three large sheets of plastic and fragments of garbage bags.

The returned Plastiki will be on display for a month at the Australian National Maritime Museum where the crew members will hold public speaking events to raise awareness of the increasingly dire effects of plastic waste in the ocean.

Mr. de Rothschild said, “The plan is to create a global oceans exhibit that can showcase not only the issue of throw-away plastics but really about nurturing and re-evaluating our oceans... our most precious of ecosystems.”

Our admiring salute, Mr. de Rothschild and crew on the success of your eco-adventure as we also thank World Wildlife Fund for their caring efforts on behalf of marine co-inhabitants.

May more and more people become aware and motivated toward actions that consider all lives on our shared planetary home. Supreme Master Ching Hai has often spoken of the importance of our care for other beings in a larger picture of global balance, as during a July 2008 videoconference in Formosa (Taiwan).

Supreme Master Ching Hai: Indeed it’s a sad news as some companies or individuals are not responsible because they do not perceive the impact of their actions and the consequences on the environment if they are careless. So many marine species have suffered, decreased, or completely been wiped out of existence, due to such other’s and careless actions. Oil spills and all that, garbage disposal and all that is harming the environment and killing the wilds a lot.

So I suggest that stricter rules must be imposed to protect the sea, the water, which is our life, which is also our protector in terms of balancing our ecosystems and sustains our planetary equilibrium, and sustains our lives.

We’ve been warned from all sides. It is time that we take heed now and return to our natural loving self. Manifest our love outwardly by protecting, respecting all lives, in action. Meaning again: being a vegetarian, abstain from all animals products.

Eco-friendly Austrian project uses grass for fuel - 28 Nov 2010

Sponsored by some of the nation’s large energy providers, a pilot project in the state of Lower Austria has successfully produced natural gas as a fuel source without a loss in food production.

To achieve this goal, participating farmers first harvested their primary food crops in late July or early August, then sowed the fields with grasses that served as secondary bio-fuel crops to be harvested in late October.

The biogas fuel from the crops was then refined so that it could be introduced into the existing natural gas network. The results of the pilot test have shown that Austria has the potential to sustainably provide for nearly all of her natural gas needs through this bio-fuel.

In addition to the energy benefits, the secondary planting has also been noted to benefit the soil, as the grass cover crop helps retain moisture, and its by-products can be spread on the field as an excellent natural fertilizer that retains a high proportion of total nitrogen.

Bravo, entrepreneurs and Austria for your work to introduce sustainable bio-fuels while protecting food security.

May your endeavors continue to be graced with success, yielding abundant energy supplies in harmony with nature for all.

Future e-car for urban mobility unveiled - 15 Jan 2011

Imagine a vehicle capable of navigating without a driver, which can be driven individually or joined with other vehicles in a train for more efficient travel. It can also avoid obstacles, park itself and will automatically return to the owner when summoned from a smartphone application!

This is the new concept car EN-V, or Electric Networked Vehicle by US-based auto manufacturer General Motors in partnership with green transportation company Segway, Inc. The EN-V debuted at the recent Consumers Electronics Show in Nevada, USA following a six-month exhibit at the Shanghai World Expo in China.

Designed for urban short-commuting distances, the two-wheeled, two-seater EN-V measures 1.5 meters by 1.5 meters, and contains lithium-ion batteries that can be recharged with conventional outlets.

Estimated to be production ready within a decade at a cost of US$10,000, the eco-friendly vehicle can easily share a parking space with four or five other EN-Vs. Speaking of the niche envisioned for the car, General Motors' Director of Advanced Technology Vehicle Concepts, Chris Borroni-Bird stated, “Building more and wider roads is expensive and doesn't really solve all of the problems, meaning that smarter solutions are needed.

Public transportation is important, but with so many people going from point to point in different directions, some personal transport is needed as well.” What an exciting glimpse into future transportation design!

Bravo General Motors and Segway, Inc. for bringing together streamlined function with concern for the environment. May the EN-V inspire many more toward such innovative vehicles that are smart, efficient and green!

Black carbon reductions cool the environment - 19 Jan 2011

Regulations designed to improve public health and reduce smog by reducing air pollution from trucks burning diesel fuel in the US state of California have been found to have an additional side benefit.

Over the past two decades, these measures also resulted in a 50% reduction in black carbon, a potent climate change agent generated from diesel fuel combustion and agricultural or other biomass burning. As a result, organizations like the Arctic Council and the Climate Institute have been focusing on the further reduction of this substance to bring about more rapid planetary cooling.

Scientists and policy makers in the past have been concerned that reducing black carbon would also diminish other aerosols, whose presence has actually been attributed to a cooling effect. However, in this California study, Dr. Veerabhadran Ramanathan of Scripps Institution of Oceanography calculated that the reduction of black carbon resulted in a significant cooling effects for both the region's heat and water supplies.

Moreover, according to World Preservation Foundation Senior Scientist Gerard Wedderburn-Bisshop, one of the leading sources of black carbon is the deforestation that occurs to clear agricultural land, 70% of which is used for livestock raising.

California Resource Board, Dr. Ramanathan and Dr. Bisshop, many thanks for helping us understand the role of black carbon in climate change. May we each act to reduce this and other potent greenhouse gas sources for their Earth balancing benefit to all lives.

Speaking during an October 2009 videoconference in Indonesia, Supreme Master Ching Hai addressed the changes needed to most effectively reduce planet-warming substances such as black carbon.

Supreme Master Ching Hai : Now, methane and black carbon are what scientists call short-lived gases, meaning, although they are very potent climate warmers, they dissipate and exit the atmosphere very quickly.

The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization said that the livestock industry is the major cause of the most pressing world problems, namely, global warming, land degradation, air and water pollution, and loss of biodiversity.

With no animal breeding industries, we immediately stop the number one cause of greenhouse gas emissions. Not just CO2, not just carbon dioxide, but also methane, nitrous oxide, black carbon from burning down the trees for the livestock, and also toxic gases like hydrogen sulfide.

If the world's people all become vegans, we will see a dramatic change in a short period of time, a couple of months, yes.

These changes would be just the beginning signs of a real Eden on Earth.

Material developed to replace fossil fuel - 30 Jan 2011

Cella Energy, based in the United Kingdom, has developed a hydrogen-based liquid fuel which, according to early tests, can cleanly power regular internal combustion engines in existing vehicles with the only significant end product being water vapor.

The synthetic fuel, created at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory over a four-year period by Professor Stephen Bennington and his team of scientists from University College London and Oxford University, is based on technology that enables the safe and lasting storage of hydrogen in liquid form.

The new fuel not only has a similar efficiency to current fossil-based fuels, but it will be available at a lower price and can be used as an additive to regular petrol to reduce carbon emission levels. Cella Energy hopes for the fuel to be available as soon as in three years.

Way to go, Cella Energy, Professor Bennington and your team of scientists! Wishing your innovative clean-energy endeavors much success to benefit both travelers and the environment.

As during a July 2008 videoconference in the United States, Supreme Master Ching Hai has often spoken about the vast potential of beneficial technological developments awaiting humankind through a mindful change in lifestyle.

Supreme Master Ching Hai : The technology that we are having right now is nothing, nothing compared to what we will have if all the population of the planet turn to a loving, kind, compassionate vegetarian diet. Then you will see all kinds of inventions that we have never imagined before, will surface. And all people will live in peace and love; even if they don't pray for it, it will come.
