Germany is the largest biodiesel market in the World — but since January this year has been under censure and mayhem – post having lifted the tax-free status form the yet infantile industry, sending the biodiesel produced in the Deutschland expensive...
Researchers have come up with a new technique that holds promise to control the rising volumes of CO2 in the atmosphere. These researchers are now trying out ways by which this excess CO2 can be safely dumped into the ground.
What if CO2 levels...
Japanese are a serious rage in the tech and environmental world, they hardly let a day pass before they are up with something novel again in either sphere – Texas Instruments was probably the first ever to build Solar cells – that plays a brainwave for...
GPS devices are mostly of use when you are going to an alien place. The iBT-GPS Solar Bluetooth GPS Data Logger is a dual purpose GPS device that is powered by solar energy.
As you can see in the image the devices has a solar panel in place of the...
A new technique may completely change the use of wind power from a back-up to the star of the show. As we all know what we get at our home is Alternating Current or AC. This type of electricity is then converted into DC or direct current to run our...
We all know that turtles don’t need an internet connection to keep them alive, however, they need to be tracked carefully so that they don’t enter the dreaded list already flooding with the names of endangered species.

Have you ever imagined a washing machine that does not need a detergent to clean your clothes…? I guess, not, but anyone well versed with the phenomenon of electrolysis might know that it can be done.
Actually, we use detergents not to clean...
We at Ecofriend are continuously getting you closer to all the breakthroughs in the field of environment science and believe us we don’t even get time to take a break all day long. The reason is the continuous development of products the...
Researchers at the Ohio State have developed a new technique that not only reduces the cost of solar cells to a quarter but also makes them beautiful. These solar cells come in pink and are called Dye Sensitive Solar Cells of DSSCs.
These solar...
Earthtech has launched a new Solar Laptop Charger that delivers 150-watt of portable power to any system that consumes less than that. Now there will be no excuse for not working (not necessarily a good thing) if you are stuck up in a traffic jam for...
With the conventional sources of power running out, people are on the constant lookout for renewable sources of energy. The US Dept. of Energy, and Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) together found that it will be cheaper to use a rooftop...
Wind energy is one of the most renewable sources of energy that we can get on our planet. We usually don’t see wind turbines mounted onto the rooftops. But if you have one for you, paying the electricity bill should be a breeze.
Popsci has an...
Come rains and the pavements are perpetually rife with running water. To my deepest embarrassment, I’ve slipped more than once under such circumstances. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if water were not to remain on the surface and just vanish...
Offsetting carbon emissions to a least degree could be as simple as making your own cake and having it.
Green is the word promoted to save the world lately – not polluting at the first place, could be an alternative for the cause, but in the fast...
The California Academy of Sciences building that is coming up in San Francisco will feature one of San Francisco’s most exciting green projects; a living or a green roof.
The building’s green roof will provide an undulating huge living space....
