Few years back I heard the term Hydroponics for the first time when there was an event at the local school showcasing the latest trends in gardening. Was an interesting concept! A year later, my mother sent me a video link to show how farming was done vertically. Amazing concept!

In the previous post about Learning from bees, we looked at what is the current challenge we are facing and what can we do to save the species.
It made me think, are the universities doing anything about it? What does the current digital age and Robotics/AI organizations doing about this challenge.

Bioluminescence is the production and emission of light by a living organism. (Fireflies is the first thing that comes to mind :)) There are places on earth that have an abundance of organisms like fish, bacteria, fungi, jellies etc (mostly sea creatures) that are bioluminescent (emit light – similar to glow-in-the-dark). I have always been fascinated by the concept and was amazing to see the different places that have bioluminescent bays across the world!

While researching about what can be done to revive bee population, came across very many cities and city-builders, architects considering the option of building rooftop gardens across bigger cities. Cities being now called as Big cities, will become global cities attracting twice to ten times the population from suburbs in the next ten years (Courtesy: Internation Management session at Wharton)
Pictures are google-searchable and I do not own them. However, they seem to be portraying a story.
Bees are a critical part of our eco system. Bees are pollinators that are vital to our food chain. Close to 1/3rd of our food will not be available without bees. So, does that mean humans will die if bees dont survive? Yes.
Continue reading “Learning from Bees”We all know about how human evolution happened. Looking at these pictures makes us think how our spinal cords have straightened during evolution.
Look at the way the neck is bending to look at our handheld devices.

H2 + O = H2O
We all know water is very beneficial to health. Drinking water is known to be a good therapy for many health conditions. Hydrogen is available in plenty in the atmosphere. However, when it combines with Oxygen, their combined properties make water possible. Water is also known as the source of life on earth.
Continue reading “Hydrogen water – What is it?”One of the articles on World Economic forum on the reducing the carbon footprint triggered a thought.
There are organizations who are thinking about reducing our carbon footprint on earth. As an individual, what can I do to help?
