Nanotechnology and the Future with Clean Energy

Harnessing the power of tidal currents has the potential to provide unheard of clean, renewable energy production. Nanotechnology, with its innovative approach and non-surpassed success rate, may be the conduit needed to perfect the viability of ocean-current power as an alternative energy source. Ocean currents are a natural phenomena located along most coastlines. The only [...]

Nanotechnology for Oil Spill Cleanups

Oil spills are a serious threat to the environment. The marine ecosystem, in particular, takes a serious pounding because of them. Several approaches have been used so far to deal with oil spill cleanups. The latest in the list is nanotechnology, which deals with structures of the size of 100 nanometers or smaller. The idea [...]

Nanotechnology May Help Improving Fuel Ability

As we are facing the uncertainly in supply of crude oil, as well as affluent prices, other fuel source is a happening and hot topic. An interesting option could be ethanol, now made out of plants like corn and sugar cane. Companies and universities are eagerly working to grow this process of making ethanol from [...]

Environmental Science is an Eco-Friendly Degree Option

From its infancy in the 1970s, the environmental awareness movement has gained strength not only in the United States, but also all over the world. From the first “Earth Day” in 1970, to the present day global knowledge of our fragile planet, people’s awareness has grown exponentially. In fact, hundreds of colleges around the world [...]
