Sustainable living tip of the day

Sustainable tip of the day is to save Nemo, Nemo is a Disney cartoon, but they're plenty of other fish who actually need saving. More than 90 percent of the world's swordfish, marlin, giant tuna and other large predatory fish have been caught, and 76 percent of the world's fish stocks are eaten up by man if we don't watch out, we could lose many of the world's fisheries.

Sustainable Design Tennis Ball chair

In a sustainable design article posted by Yuka Yoneda on inhabitat . Yuka tells us how to be sustainable enough to fight the ever increasing global warming by using recycled material.
What do you think of when you think “green design?” Probably not a chair made entirely of recycled tennis balls! This sustainable and unexpected take on recycling by furniture designer Hugh Hayden maker of this playful FUNATURE Tennis Ball Chair and also the winner of BKLYN Designs Most Innovative Use of Materials Award. He used medium size (297 repurposed tennis balls) to make it smart and simple, it’s also fun and sustainable and when it comes to getting people talking about sustainable design, the Tennis Ball Chair is the perfect eco conversation piece.

Why tennis balls? Their high turnover during matches means that a huge number of the fuzzy lime green spheres get discarded despite their being practically new. Recognizing the durability of the tennis balls, as well as the need to salvage them from getting burnt or dumped, Hayden decided to use them to craft a tongue-in-cheek chair that is surprisingly comfortable to sit .

Since the main component of the chairs already exists and does not need to be produced or processed, it is even more sustainable than some of the materials we usually consider to be extremely sustainable. And in terms of being delightful to look at, the Tennis Ball Chair takes the cake. From this sustainable art piece we can smell that Hugh and the Wimbledon have collaborations? It would certainly a sustainable match (point) scored by them

World's fastest plane

Research indicates that aviation is the fastest growing source of CO2 and with more and more people opting for the fastest way to commute, the figures are bound to reach staggering heights in the next couple of decades. Greening airplanes isn’t an easy and a practically feasible task considering the demand for speedier planes is ever increasing. SkySpark, which took the sky for the first time on June 10, is definitely a stepping stone toward greener aviation.

The 100% electricity-powered airplane made a world record by reaching a top speed of 250km/h. The airplane is a specially built Pioneer Alpi 300, which is now powered by a 75KW brushless electric motor fueled by an array of lithium-polymer batteries. The team behind the development is looking forward for better range and more speed using engine technology that runs on hydrogen fuel cells.
