Top 10 Ways to Destroy Earth-authors take note

January 18, 2009

Another article from LiveScience.  Gives ten ways to utterly destroy the Earth (not just life on it, the planet itself too) and an estimate of feasibility.  Several of them have already been used in scifi works, but there are some that have not.  I see a whole slew of book ideas here.  To bad I stink as an author.


Coconut Cars

January 18, 2009

I’m flashing back to Gilligan’s Island.  The professor could make anything out of coconuts.

Check out this article from LiveScience about potential uses for coconut husks.  The idea is to use a part of the coconut that has always been considered trash, thereby reducing waste and increasing profits for poor coconut farmers in equatorial regions.  Go environmentalism!
