Home heating alternatives

Interesting video showing an activity to investigate which sort of materials are good at thermal storage. Read more here

This is the sort of thing that we can try at a future STEM group meeting

As this was found on the Fediverse, please see the related fedi thread

Wind turbine blades could someday be recycled into sweet treats

Interesting article on New wind turbine technology that is more sustainable and allows old turbines to be disposed of and recycled. This is an important step forward as waste is still a big problem so finding more environmentally friendly with producing green energy makes that greener and better for the environment.

Also included a link to Science Forums to discuss further, again please link directly to the original article.

Manganese could make luminescent materials and the conversion of sunlight more sustainable

Sounds like an interesting development. You can read more on Science Daily [2]. I think the significant part of this discovery is that Manganese [2] is cheaper and more readily available. Please feel free, to open a thread on Discourse [3] in order to discuss further.
