10 years later... (Imagine1)

In 2022 I will be 22 years old and will be a scientist, studying chemicals and trying to create things that people haven't even tried to make before. I will get to Tokyo by plane (NZ to Japan) and I will try to find extra opportunities while i'm there.

LEARN2

In my opinion one of the biggest challenges to food security in our local community is child poverty. One child in four in Nuremberg depends on social transfer benefit payments and every third child suffers from poverty at all.

As one of the most powerless groups in society, children often bear the physical and emotional costs of poverty. This problem manifests itself in bad living conditions like bad housing conditions, frequent unemployment and malnutrition of children.

Charity: Water Assistance

For my last birthday, I did a Charity: Water campaign. I raised $110 to help fund water wells in developing nations. I've also previously blogged about the water site. I intend on doing another campaign for my next big birthday (or other milestone)

Charity: Water

I've been a supporter of Charity: Water for several years now. I think their approach is really positive and they've created an infrastructure that supports their work without using donations for anything that doesn't directly help people.

4th of July 2020

4th of July is the ultimate outdoors event, and the epicenter is always the grill. Because we're being green, we've purchased one of these sweet new solar grills that have just hit market.

While our burgers cook, we're also using the sun to run our music system, a key part of any festivities. We're using USB…

solar powered cell phone charger

one of my main issues for electricity is keeping my cell phone charged. it's endless aggravation and i'm constantly searching for outlets. I know it's not sustainable and I know it's inconvenient.

I have a huge window in my office as well as living in an area that gets a lot of sun, so a natural solution is to look at cell phone chargers that are solo powered.

Two that I like: …

Biomass electricity generators

As a scientist by education, I was fascinated by the work of Lalith Seneviratne, who created electricity generators that runs on the biomass of the woody gliricidia, which is a tree in Sri Lanka. He also forged the social connections to teach people how to use these generators and has helped the villagers to get the loan to run the plants. Very cool!

What's for dinner in 2020?

I think we always overestimate how much things are going to change, because often we fail to account for the adaptability of humanity in our projections. I think I'll be having much of the same thing for dinner in 2020 that I had in 2012, 2002, and 1992. I focus on fresh foods with home-prepared meals!

act 1

i picked Richard because at the age of 11 Richard decided to do something about his family’s losses. He observed that the lions never struck the homesteads when someone was awake and walking around with a flashlight. Lions are naturally afraid of people. He concluded that lions equate torches with people so he took the led bulbs from broken flashlights and rigged up an automated lighting system of four or five torch bulbs around the cattle stockade. The bulbs are wired to a box with…

Mission 4 imagine

I would have the event at a beach, and there would be a cornered off area for inflatable toys and kayaks. The event would be free, but little shops, cafes and markets would sit on the perimeter of the beach for people to enjoy. Volunteers would walk around asking if people would like to dontate.
When night comes, music would play loudly for everyone to dance to, and shows and dances would be performed on a stage.

Antoine Cesar Becquerel

I picked Antoine Cesar Becquerel because his invention, the solar panel. Even if people have improved on the designs, they built up from something, take that thing away and no improvements, this is why the inventor is more important than anyone else.

Fourth of July on the Lake

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Stinging Nettle

In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle. Let's start with the chemical constituents of this plant:37 % Non-Nitrogen-Extracts19 - 29 % Ash9 - 21 % Fiber4 % Fat22 % ProteinOnce the leaves are drid, their protein content can reach an astounding 40 %, which is much higher than beef, which even under the best of circ**stances can never exceed 31 % protein.

Future

FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

public servants

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
