(Natural News) The Aloha State could be the country’s leader in renewable energy as it moves toward getting 100 percent of its power needs from both solar and wind sources by 2045. As of this year, Hawaii gets around 33 percent of its power needs from rooftop solar, although there are days when the percentage […]

(Natural News) When a disaster, invasion, or terrorist attack takes out the power grid, it will take years or even decades to restore power. An article on Ready Nutrition recommended five alternative sources of electrical energy that can improve your chances of surviving post-collapse conditions. Each power source has its strengths and weaknesses. You should […]

(Natural News) Which planet sounds like a better place to live: One that is full of plants and trees and teeming with wildlife and biodiversity with plenty of food to go around, or a cold and barren one with a starving and dying-off population? If you’re like most people, you would choose the first option […]

(Natural News) Global warming alarmists can take a chill pill. A ground-breaking study by Californian scientists predicted that the radiation from the Sun will taper off during the middle of the 21st century, allowing Earth a chance to cool off, reported a Science Daily article. This reduction in solar radiation is part of an irregular but recurring natural […]

(Natural News) Until just a few decades ago, “sustainability” was a term that was hardly ever used. When humans needed a new resource they simply searched for it, found a way to extract it, and then implemented its use. In recent years, however, there has been more and more emphasis placed on the sustainable use […]

(Natural News) Researchers were surprised when they discovered that eucalyptus trees have adapted to their harsh environment. In their study, the researchers aimed to determine how eucalyptus trees in Australia reacted to extreme heat and drought. The researchers replicated a “heat wave of the future,” growing trees in special Whole Tree Chambers at the University […]

(Natural News) To develop new techniques in maximizing food and fuel production in the modern age, researchers from The University in Edinburgh in the United Kingdom are turning to an unlikely source for answers: The living bacteria inside the guts of bovine animals. A new study claims that microbes may be the solution to figuring […]

(Natural News) Microbial fuel cell technology shows plenty of promise for generating electricity in places where power sources may be limited, but they haven’t been perfected yet. Now a group of researchers from the Kaunas University of Technology (KTU) have shown that it’s possible to improve their efficiency with the use of modified graphite felt. […]

(Natural News) The largest wind farm in the United States is coming soon to Oklahoma, reported EcoWatch, now that the Southwestern Electric Power Company (SWEPCO) has reached an arrangement with Walmart and Arkansas state agencies to guarantee the project. The state’s famously-shaped and windy panhandle region will be hosting the Wind Catcher Energy Connection project. A huge […]
