-(Natural News) Rocks might not strike you as a potential source of clean and renewable energy, much less a substitute for solar panels. But Chinese researchers found that some stones sport metallic coats that naturally convert sunlight into electricity via the same process as photosynthetic organisms. The coating contains iron and manganese, two minerals used […]

-(Natural News) A Swedish-led research group succeeded in increasing the amount of electrical current that they can harvest from bacteria. The jump in efficiency is a big step toward the use of bacteria as sources of clean and renewable energy. In light of the dwindling supply of fossil fuels and the increasing demand for energy, researchers are exploring […]

-(Natural News) Researchers from Harvard University have made an interesting and hilarious discovery with regards to wind power, which actually causes more global warming than the burning of fossil fuels does. While massive wind farms are said by some to be the “renewable” energy source of the future, two Harvard scientists have found that the […]

-(Natural News) Lubricants are a key ingredient in making sure modern technology runs smoothly. It’s used in cars, home appliances, and industrial machinery – pretty much everything that has an engine. But while they’re helpful, mineral oil can heavily pollute the environment. The most common alternative, synthetic base oil, is unlikely to completely replace mineral […]

-(Natural News) Researchers from Bozok University in Turkey examined whether cocklebur (Xanthium strumarium L.) seed oil could be used as an alternative biodiesel source. The team published their results in the Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry. Renewable energy sources are used to reduce greenhouse gas emissions caused by fossil fuels. Among these energy sources, […]

-(Natural News) Splitting water to create renewable hydrogen energy looks good on paper – until you realize that making it requires a lot of the “dirty energy” it’s trying to replace, like fossil fuel. In a study published in the American Chemical Society’s ACS Catalysis, researchers from the University of Delaware and Columbia University established a process that can produce greener hydrogen […]
