Maybe in some years we all will run around with such fancy clothes.

Store renewable energy as methane gas

Researchers want to store renewable energy as methane.

This would be another way instead of using batteries as energy storage device. And for the production of the batteries you need a lot of seldomly available resources.

Achtbeinige Genies

Spinnen sind achtbeinige Genies, und auch Tintenfische und dergleichen sind bewundernswert.

Wir Menschen überschätzen uns häufig und denken, wir sind einzigartig.

Das stimmt auch teilweise, nur nicht in allen Bereichen.

Amazon head quarter

Jeff Bezos wanted to build another Amazon head quarter. And New York was one of the options to build it. But the people there rejected as the city should have sponsored that with a lot of money.

In my humble opinion, Amazon and these other big companies are having and getting so much money, it’s not necessary that they get sponsored like that.

So we should really reject that in the future.

The same is valid with tax. They should pay taxes as they are also having a lot of benifits from the environment cities and countries are providing.
