Inhabitat’s Week in Green: Skyscraper competition, a solar death ray and nanoparticles equipped with HIV-killing bee venom
In SoMeIT (Social Media Information Technology), we are fully dedicated to satisfying all of your web needs, integrating your business to social networks.
Each week our friends at Inhabitat recap the week’s most interesting green developments and clean tech news for us — it’s the Week in Green. March marks the start of spring, and this week we saw lots of fresh new unveils in the world of green architecture — including the futuristic winners of the 2013 eVolo Skyscraper Competition. This year’s winner was the Polar Umbrella, a buoyant skyscraper designed to rebuild the shrinking polar ice sheets affected by global warming. Some of our other favorites are these jellyfish-shaped PH Conditioner Skyscrapers, which combat air pollution while producing fresh water, and Project Nomad, an out-of-this-world mobile skyscraper that could terraform Mars to make it habitable by humans. Meanwhile architect Michael Charters designed “Big Wood,” a prototype for a large-scale wooden skyscraper in downtown Chicago.Filed under: Misc, ScienceComments
