James Brady+FollowTree Goo Could Supercharge EVs!Who knew a sticky tree gum from India could be the secret to longer-lasting electric cars? Scientists just figured out that kondagogu gum—something the Indian government literally struggles to get rid of—can make supercapacitors (the things that help power EVs) last way longer. Like, 80 years longer! That means fewer battery swaps, less toxic waste, and more money saved for EV owners. Nature really does have all the best hacks! #EVs #Innovation #Sustainability #CleanEnergy #TechNews #Science00Share
rgallagher+FollowPorsche’s Secret Sauce for Lighter CarsPorsche just dropped a game-changer: TABASKO, a wild new way to make car parts lighter, stronger, and greener—all at once! They’re using carbon fiber tape (think: super thin, super strong) mixed with recycled plastics to build parts that are 20% lighter but still tough as nails. And get this: it’s fully automated, so they can crank out up to 80,000 pieces a year without breaking the bank. Imagine your next Porsche being even faster and more eco-friendly! #Porsche #Innovation #Sustainability #CarTech #Engineering #Cars00Share
jwhite+FollowWhy Green Collision Shops Win BigTurns out, going green in auto repair isn’t just about saving the planet—it’s a total game-changer for business! Shops that use sustainable practices are attracting younger talent (who actually care about this stuff), keeping employees happy, and even impressing big names like BMW. Plus, new tech like waterborne paints and recycling old tires into clearcoats? That’s next-level. Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s the secret sauce for future-proofing your shop and boosting your bottom line. #Sustainability #AutoRepair #GreenBusiness #FutureOfWork #Innovation #Cars00Share
dianefrank+FollowSingle Berry, So Much Plastic?!Just saw a pic of Sprouts handing out ONE blackberry in a plastic cup with a lid—seriously, all that waste for a single berry?! People are calling them out for not using paper or just handing them out directly. For a store that claims to be all about sustainability, this feels like a major fail. It’s wild how much single-use plastic we still go through, even when there are better options. Are we really still doing this in 2024? #PlasticWaste #Sustainability #EcoFriendly #Wasteful #SingleUsePlastics #Food00Share
Amanda Carroll+FollowStarbucks Goes Green & Saves Big BucksDid you know Starbucks has turned over 9,000 of its cafes into eco-friendlier hangouts? That means more energy savings, less water waste, and even perks like free refills in real mugs if you sip your latte in-store. They’re also adding EV chargers at select locations, so you can power up your car while you caffeinate. The best part? These green moves save Starbucks $60 million a year—proof that being eco-friendly can be good for your wallet, too! #Starbucks #Sustainability #MoneyHacks #EcoFriendly #CoffeeBreak #Shopping00Share
Amber Mcguire+FollowPanama Canal’s Secret Power MovesDid you know the Panama Canal isn’t just a shortcut for ships—it’s a global trade MVP? At a recent lecture, the Canal’s top boss spilled how this waterway connects 170 countries, slashes shipping routes by 8,000 miles, and keeps $270B in U.S. cargo flowing. Now, they’re doubling down on water storage and launching eco-friendly shipping perks. Plus, a new gas pipeline is coming to boost energy exports. The Canal’s glow-up is wild! #PanamaCanal #GlobalTrade #SupplyChain #Innovation #Sustainability #Transportation8337Share
Vanessa Brown+FollowMicrosoft Buys More Clean Air for the FutureBig news: Microsoft just doubled down on its promise to fight climate change by locking in a mega-deal with Stockholm Exergi. They’re buying enough carbon removal to wipe out the emissions of a small city every year! This isn’t just corporate PR—Microsoft is literally paying to suck CO₂ out of the air and stash it away for good. If this catches on, your next tech purchase could help clean the air, not just clutter your desk. #ClimateAction #CarbonRemoval #Microsoft #Sustainability #GreenTech #Business00Share
fnixon+FollowCoke Japan Goes AI for Faster DrinksHeads up, soda fans! Coca-Cola’s main bottler in Japan is using AI to get your favorite drinks to stores faster and fresher. They’re teaming up with a tech company to streamline deliveries, cut down on wasted stock, and maybe even help the planet by using fewer trucks. But here’s the twist: running all that AI takes a ton of energy, so the eco-wins aren’t guaranteed yet. Still, it could mean fewer empty shelves and more cold Cokes when you want them! #CocaCola #AI #SupplyChain #Sustainability #Japan #LifeHacks #Business00Share
Brooke Martin+FollowNASA’s Supercomputer Predicts Earth’s Expiry DateEver wondered how long Earth has left? NASA and Japanese researchers ran the numbers and, spoiler alert, our planet’s got about a billion years before the Sun turns up the heat and wipes out all life. But don’t panic-pack your bags just yet—this is a slow burn, not a sudden apocalypse. The real takeaway? Our daily choices—like using less plastic or saving energy—matter, because climate change could speed things up. Maybe time to double down on those eco-friendly habits! #ClimateChange #NASA #Sustainability #FutureTalk #EcoLifehacks #Business145174Share
James Brady+FollowSpace Junk Is Piling Up—Here’s WhyDid you know climate change is making our space junk problem even worse? MIT scientists found that as greenhouse gases cool the upper atmosphere, it gets thinner—meaning less drag to pull space debris back to Earth. That could shrink the safe zone for satellites by up to 82% by 2100! With millions of pieces already zipping around, even a blueberry-sized chunk can hit like a falling anvil. Wild, right? Less pollution = less space trash. Who knew saving the planet also meant saving our satellites? #SpaceJunk #ClimateChange #ScienceNews #EarthOrbit #Sustainability #Science40Share
