Three 16 year old Indian students can remove microplastics from water using tamarind seeds. And they've received a $12,500 grant from The Earth Prize to develop this solution. How did they do it? Tamarind seeds have something called polysaccharide - which is a sticky compound that can natural polymer.... Kinda like a plant-based glue. This glue when mixed with water can pull out microplastics and clump them together. And these kids are using the same principle to develop their product called "Plas-Stick" - which is just this power made from waste tamarind seeds. Now, "Plas-Stick" is still in its developmental stage and there is a lot that needs to be done before it can be scaled. But if they pull this off - we could have a simple, biodegradable and scalable solution to purify water for billions of people in the world. And that's something. Kudos to Vivaan Chhawchharia, Ariana Agarwal, and Avyana Mehta. P.S. Video and Picture taken from The Earth Prizeshow more

Americans: Indians taking our job Reason: Three Indian teenagers just achieved something most scientists spend years working on. They created a biodegradable powder from tamarind seeds that helps remove microplastics from water—without electricity or complex machinery. Their innovation, called Plas-stick, won the 2026 Earth Prize, making them the first global winners from India. A reminder that some of the world's biggest problems don't always need expensive solutions—sometimes they just need fresh thinking.

Bryan Johnson reveals that water from glass bottles has MORE microplastics than water from plastic bottles ''When you look at the data, the microplastics don't come from the glass, they come from the lid and it's the paint that goes in the lid and then it chips off'' ''That's why it's very counterintuitive. You think a plastic water bottle is made of plastic and a glass water bottle is made of glass. The glass bottle has more microplastics than the plastic bottle. This is why testing is the best thing to do, it's very dangerous to have assumptions''

American Farmer Spreading Awareness, Read Every Word Of This 👇 “The seed companies are essentially bullying farmers into buying their seeds, which is another reason why your food is becoming so expensive” “Farmers can be and will be sued if they plant their own seeds” “Farmers don't own the rights to the genetics of their own seeds unless they're using heirloom seeds. So in order to have the right to plant these seeds, we have to pay a fee. The seed company can actually come on to your property, check your plants, and if the plant has any trace of their genetics, they sue the farmer. So all that hard work growing the plant, yeah, we don't own it. And the seed companies love to remind us this, by saying, we know you bought our seed last year, so if you don't buy seed again from us, we're gonna be auditing you. So my order of three totes just came in, enough to plant 300 acres of soybeans, and to have the right to plant them cost me over $30,000”

our shrimplet harvests are finally ready to be collected! using a moderately-deep water-dingus such as this, we aim to provide the fertile shrimplet with a safe place to release its stash. once the spores are released, the unburdened shrimplet is removed, and the water-dingus is sieved to isolate the fertile spores. next, the spores are desiccated, dehydrated, and preserved inside a stable medium. this ensures that the spores can be re-used for several years. once the time is right, the spores are reactivated in a solution of spore-catalyst, so that they can be reused and re-deposited if necessary.

Stay with me here for a second. Is it possible that God is using this Epstein situation to bring people closer to him? The average person cannot comprehend the terrible things that these people have done to children. But now they can’t hide from it anymore. And because of that people are realizing and seeing that there is true evil in this world, and they are turning to God.

This is Anagha Rajesh. And she is crazy. She wants to store data in bacterial DNA. Her startup is called BioCompute. And last year, they actually did it. They stored data in DNA and retrieved it in their tiny lab in Bengaluru. This is a huge moment. But why is she even doing it? Because DNA is the ultimate storage tool available to us. Just 1 gm of DNA can store about 215 petabytes of data - that's like storing over 2 million movies in 4K. On top of that - this data can last for literally 1000s of years. Right now, they still need to figure out a way to make the reading and writing process faster and cheaper. But if BioCompute solves this problem - we could theoretically store all the data created in the world every year in the palm of our hands. And that would be insane. P.S. Check out this video from vyom going to Anagha's lab and actually doing it.

This is an areal look into Lake Powell, which now sits at only 23% capacity Because so many of our vital water reservoirs are running low or dry, there is a movement for what’s called ‘The Colorado River Abundance Act” The goal is to develop up to 7 million acre-feet of new reliable water per year. They would do this by large-scale seawater desalination, brackish water desalination, advanced water reuse and recycling and infrastructure modernization The cost for this proposal is about $40 billion which is a ton of money but something needs to be done….

The subject of 'owning a slave' is dense. It is something we hear a lot when we are in the FemDom Realm. Is it just fantasy? Can it actually be a lifestyle? How do we navigate this type of dynamic? How do we even get to that level of D/s? In this short clip [Exerpt from SLAVE TRAINING Part 2] I want to already bring to your attention one thing that will define if your desire for a slave (or desire as a slave) is touching more on a fantasy or... how can you actually navigate this in a realistic way. No one person 'can do it all' or should be expected to. If you want your slave to be 'the best' , assign them a specific role in which they can excel... and then build upon that. Once they 'master' your housekeeping (which takes quite a bit of real training), they can move to other levels. And an important note I want to leave here... make them EARN access to certain things in your life that sometimes you just want to delegate because you don't want to manage or don't know how to manage. Entrusting them with serious tasks that can affect your life, your business, your reputation, are on top of the ladder. Are they even qualified for the thing you want them to take off your shoulders? Start small and allow them to grow in their submission, to develop their skills and to learn how to best satisfy you without setting them up for failure by expecting too much, too quick. In the end, if you want this to truly work, you have to approach it from a place that transcends the roles. As this is consensual power exchange. And you both want to be fulfilled in that relationship.

Ring muscle-ups are a beautiful blend of strength and flexibility While you can be brutally strong in pull-ups and dips, you still need to understand the transition part which is the hardest part for most people You need to develop the false grip, learn how to transition from a pull to a push movement and what it feels like to shift your bodyweight to accommodate that transition

.Secretary Marco Rubio: "Let me explain to you guys this in simple English, ok? Iran is run by lunatics — religious fanatic lunatics. They have an ambition to have nuclear weapons. They intend to develop those nuclear weapons behind a program of missiles and drones and terrorism that the world will not be able to touch them for fear of those things. And this is the weakest they've ever been. Now is the time to go after them. The President made the decision to go after them, take away their missiles, take away their navy, take away their drones, take away their ability to make those things, so that they can never have a nuclear weapon... That's why the President made this decision. It was the right decision — and the world will be a safer place when these radical clerics no longer have access to these weapons. You see how they're using them now. Imagine how they would use them a year from now if they had more of these."

Camel, the amazing desert superanimal Camels don't just have adaptations that help them survive heat, they have adaptations that help them thrive and rule the deserts. ✓ You're more likely to encounter a venomous snake than a non-venomous one in many desert environments. Camels have some degree of resistance to snake venom. Coincidence? ✓ Camels have long eyelashes and bushy eyebrows which protect their eyes from blowing sand and sun glare ✓ They have third transparent eyelid which acts like a windshield wiper; camel can still see while keeping sand out ✓ They have narrow slit-like nostrils that can close completely to keep sand out during storms. ✓ They have humps which can store fat for future use. 1kg of fat stores in the hump can provide about 1kg of water and energy when metabolised. So, they can stay for long without water. ✓ Their urine is concentrated and syrupy. This minimizes water loss. ✓ They can drink up to 100L to 200L in just 3 minutes. This means they can rapidly rehydrate when they come upon water. ✓ While humans can die at 12-15% body-weight water loss, camels can tolerate 20-30%. ✓ They have thick, leathery knee pads which makes it easy for them to kneel on the hot desert sand. They can kneel on a sand that's up to 70°C hot without getting burned. ✓ They have wide, cushioned feet, which makes it easy for them to spread their weight and walk on sand without sinking. ✓ They have thick and tough lips that makes it easy for them to eat thorny desert plants. These and many more makes them the rulers of desert. Camels are amazing creatures.

#WATCH | Delhi | AAP Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal says, "The people of Sagarpur, Dwarka had called me and the situation there is very bad... I went to a house and black water was being supplied there. I filled that black water in a bottle and I brought that water here, at the Chief Minister's residence. Since 2015 we have been hearing that next year everything will be fine... That black water which I have brought - they have no shame, will Delhi drink this? I warned the Chief Minister - this was just a sample. If within fifteen days she does not fix the water supply of the entire Delhi, I will bring a whole tanker full of such water. I am leaving this water for her. She can bathe with this water, drink this water or purify her sins... Chhath Puja is coming. Today was Govardhan Puja, yesterday was Diwali and this is the condition of Delhi... Who can drink this water and live? Who can stay alive after drinking this water? The Chief Minister is also the Water Minister. Is her job just to make fun by holding ten press conferences every day?"

This is insane “Guess how many microplastics they found in a can of Coke?” - Plastic bottles contain 250,000 microplastics per liter - There are 3.7 million in a single can of Coke Read that again. “The numbers just mean that on a daily basis we are ingesting millions and millions of nanoplastics And if you look at this — they've been found in every single man that's ever been studied in their testicles. They've been found in brain, ovaries, kidneys, every organ in our body is full of these particles. They can directly be damaging to our ability to produce hormones” There is also research that shows microplastics are being going in our brains. In fact our brains are now 0.5% plastic according to a study by the National Institutes of Health This has to stop, we need revolutionary change and regulations against microplastics
