A transparent layer can retard UV rays and moisture, but some conservators worry about application and suitability for aging oil paint.
Turning plastic waste into roads.
Presented by BASF
A company in Nairobi wants to install bricks made from plastic trash across Kenya’s capital. Could they become a solution for a country where 90% of roads have never been paved? And are roads made from plastic really a good idea?

The Chinese government is developing biological weapons that can attack #DNA strands specific to targeted racial groups. According to Gordon Chang, author of “The Coming Collapse of China,” these “ethnic-specific pathogens” could amount to “civilization killers,” and leave China as the world’s “only viable #civilization.” This development is happening as China amasses the largest collection of American DNA profiles, even larger than what the United States has, through the purchase of DNA sequencing companies. We sat down with Gordon Chang to learn more about why these developments necessitate the immediate attention of the U.S. #government, and of governments around the world.
AUSTIN, Texas — As much as a third of the world’s population does not have access to clean drinking water, according to some estimates, and half of the population could live in water-stressed areas by 2025. Finding a solution to this problem could save and improve lives for millions of people, and it is a high priority among scientists and engineers around the globe.
Scientists and engineers at The University of Texas at Austin have created a hydrogel tablet that can rapidly purify contaminated water. One tablet can disinfect a liter of river water and make it suitable for drinking in an hour or less.
“Our multifunctional hydrogel can make a big difference in mitigating global water scarcity because it is easy to use, highly efficient and potentially scalable up to mass production,” said Guihua Yu, an associate professor in the Cockrell School of Engineering’s Walker Department of Mechanical Engineering and Texas Materials Institute.

How do you settle an argument with someone who’s clearly in the wrong? Well, you show them a live demonstration, even if it means putting your life on the line but in the end, you have to show them who’s the boss am I right?
That’s exactly what Destin Sandlin from SmarterEveryDay YouTube channel did by shutting off the helicopter midair to prove a point. A few years ago, Neil deGrasse Tyson had made a statement that “An airplane whose engine fails is a glider. A helicopter whose engine fails is a brick.” which did not sit well with the Youtuber and he decided to prove Tyson and everyone once and for all, that that statement was in fact wrong and the reality was different. The video was shot in 2016 but it has been making the rounds once again.
For his stunt, Destin took a flight around Widgeon Lake in British Columbia with Bradley Friesen, the helicopter pilot, and discussed whether a helicopter could land safely if its engine was busted. As it turns out, that landing a helicopter with a faulty engine is very much possible with a little trick called “autorotation” and that the helicopter need not fall straight down like a brick. So they decided to test the theory in real and turned off the helicopter engine mid-flight and still managed to land safely. But this doesn’t mean you should go and try this out in your private helicopter now just cause someone with more than 16,000 hours of experience demonstrated it for the sake of argument.
