Acoustic Metamaterial – this innovation is a new way to block out noise

The modern world is super noisy. Technology makes a lot of sounds and many of them aren’t what we could call pleasant. They’re just loud but unfortunately noise canceling options are unwiedly and unattractive. That may change in the future with Acoustic Metamaterial, the new material that can cancel out 94% of sound.

Quantitative Science Studies – the newest open access journal

Access to full scholarly papers is expensive which means that people just aren’t able to access the raw information for their own studies or just to draw their own conclusions. The system is not one that’s greatly favored by people and in response to that, Quantitative Science Studies was created, the newest open access journal.

Carbon Powder Traps Emissions – this powder can capture emissions before they hit the atmosphere

Turning back the clock on climate change is a battle fought on many fronts. While we’re switching over to sustainable energy sources, there still needs to be done with the emissions that being poured into our air now. One researcher has developed a powder that can capture emissions keeping them out of the air and shows some promise.

Hydropower and Droughts – when the water dries up, emissions increase

Hydropower is a familiar clean energy option but when there’s no water, there’s a definite increase in emissions from other less sustainable energy sources. This may seem like a no brainer but with the possibility of increasing droughts due to climate change, this could spell big trouble for many clean energy efforts.

Cloud Seeding – this science fiction concept is a reality

Snow, it’s more important than people think. If you’re just living in a city, it’s the white stuff that makes your morning commute a hassle but for people in certain parts of the world that rely on winter snowfall to create the green pastures of spring, the lack of it is causing big problems. No worries though, science can make more with cloud seeding but it has some drawbacks.

nergy House – this house inside of a lab answers some energy questions

Heating our homes is a big deal. It’s where we use a lot of energy because no one likes to be cold. Since you can’t just move into a new, energy efficient home, we’ve got to figure out how to get the most from what we do have. Which is why scientists in the UK built a whole house in a lab called Energy House.

Robobees – these hairy drones can pollinate flowers

We’ve talked about the bees before (save them) and the serious problems that they’re facing. This is a problem for us because they pollinate a lot of the fruits and vegetables we eat. While we’re battling the issues that are killing them. But there’s been a new idea for a stop gap solution: Robobees made from off the shelf drones.
