I know everything I am looking for is here, watch movies, watch series, education, games, exams, news, current events and many more.
Upcycled materials have become a familiar part of sustainable design, but most of them still try to hide where they came from. The aluminum gets purified, the recycled plastic molded smooth, and the result looks clean and neutral but loses the story of its origins. Pairing genuine sustainability with aesthetic character turns out to be…
The fashion industry has a water problem that most people never see. Dyeing fabric is one of the most chemically intensive steps in garment production, and the wastewater that comes out of that process carries synthetic dyes, heavy metals, and other pollutants that routinely end up in rivers and soil. By the time a sequined…
Most of us have a box. Or a bag, or a corner of the closet where clothes go to wait for a fate we haven’t quite settled on yet. Not trash, not donation, just quietly pushed aside. The jeans that stopped fitting but once made you feel unstoppable. The sweater that pilled after three washes…
Some plastics never get recycled, no matter how much you sort them. Fishing nets, buoys, agricultural films, and multilayer snack packaging are too dirty or too mixed for normal recycling systems, so they end up burned or buried. Meanwhile, we keep pouring concrete into retaining walls and bases, even though concrete production is heavy on…
When it comes to recycling, few materials can match aluminum. It can be reused an infinite number of times, and it’s often cheaper to recycle than to produce new aluminum because it requires so much less energy. Yet only about a third of the aluminum used in the U.S. gets recycled. The problem lies in…
Here’s something you don’t expect to sit on: surgical masks. Nearly 10,000 of them, to be exact. But that’s exactly what Design PY created in Hong Kong’s Tai Kok Tsui neighborhood with Tidal Stories, a spiraling urban installation that quite literally traces where the ocean used to be. The concept is brilliant in its simplicity….
Plastic recycling startup Novoloop has inked a deal with a major manufacturer to produce its upcycled thermoplastic polyurethane at commercial scale, TechCrunch has exclusively learned. The agreement helps nudge the Menlo Park-based Novoloop through the so-called “valley of death” that many climate tech startups must slog through. Startups that depend on hardware are particularly susceptible…
If you’ve ever been to a concert, you know that those crowd-control barriers can be both your salvation and your pain. They are, of course, meant to keep people in line, but if there’s ever a crowd rush and you get pushed up against one, it can be really tough. While they’re built to be…
There is a certain image that pops up whenever people think about crushing soda cans. It is the kind of scene you see in movies, where a brawny athlete flattens an empty can with a single squeeze, probably in front of a cheering crowd. The reality, however, is far less cinematic. Most of us barely…
Recycling today kind of sucks. People are generally confused about what can be recycled and where. As a result, only about 32% of eligible waste actually gets recycled. It would be a lot easier if people could dump everything into one bin and let the waste management companies deal with it, but that’s proven to…
