When the design greats at Pininfarina teamed with California startup AC Future on the dramatic eTH expanding electric motorhome for CES 2024, the unique vessel seemed unlikely to be anything more than a folder full of renderings.

Water fluoridation is widely seen as one of the great public health achievements of the 20th century, credited with substantially reducing tooth decay.

It found a significant inverse relationship between exposure levels and cognitive function in children.Higher fluoride exposures were linked to lower I.Q. scores, concluded researchers working for the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.None of the studies included in…

Digital reader outfit PocketBook has designed what’s billed as the world’s first ePaper color poster/art display, and has partnered with E Ink and Sharp to bring it to life. The InkPoster comes in three sizes and employs two screen technologies.Just like a conventional framed print you might hang on a wall, the InkPoster ePaper unit doesn’t require any power to display its onscreen visuals – unless the user opts to change an image, which is the only time the InkPoster will dip into its built-in battery reserve. That could mean months, perhaps even a year, between top-ups, together with cable-free…

New York City will soon be getting its own personal offshore wind farm. The Empire Wind 1 project just received a US$3 billion project financing package and is expected to go online in 2027, powering roughly half a million borough residents. But what’s the catch? In the energy sector, levelized cost of energy (LCoE) is a key metric that looks at the cost of electricity generated over the lifetime of the unit generating the power. LCoE takes into consideration everything from operational costs to construction, fuel (if applicable), maintenance, output, right down to finance costs and interest payments on loans.…
