The important benefits from transporting goods by hyperloop

November 2, 2021/by insnet editor

The realization of a hyperloop network for goods between the provinces of North and South Holland in the Netherlands will cause a one-million-tonne reduction in CO2 emissions and could lead to a significant improvement in air quality. This is one of the main conclusions of the research conducted by Hardt Hyperloop. Transporting goods by hyperloop also […]

This new process makes fertilizer from bioplastic

October 31, 2021/by insnet editor

Japanese scientists produced fertilizer from bioplastic. Their findings pave the way towards sustainable circular systems that simultaneously address issues such as plastic pollution, petrochemical resource depletion, and world hunger.

Quantum Computing Emerges as Key Player in Climate and AI Race
A team at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) has reached a new milestone in quantum computing: a functioning system with 6,100 qubits. These are so-called neutral-atom qubits held in place by optical “tweezers.” It is the most extensive and most stable qubit array ever built. For the global quantum community, this is considered a breakthrough: for the first time, scalability is being combined with high accuracy and long coherence.
Governments Double Down on Fossil Fuels, Pushing Climate Targets Out of Reach
Instead of winding down coal, oil, and gas as promised, governments around the world are preparing to expand fossil fuel production — a move that scientists warn could blow past global climate goals.

In the few independent media outlets and free forums that still exist, speculation about this phenomenon continues. Yet these discussions increasingly feel like rearguard battles.
