Electric Bacteria

Researchers went to yellow stone to find an interesting kind of bacteria. This bacteria can "eat" pollution. It turns toxic pollutants into less harmful substances and creates electricity. Electricity for low power applications could be produced as the bacteria transfers its electrons to solid surfaces.

Using this bacteria could change the world by helping clean the environment while also creating electricity and i think we should research it more

    This is very interesting,. There is also a question that I have, does the bacteria know which things are pollution and which things aren't.

    It's kind of strange after all these years with the resources we have, scientists just discovered this new bacteria.

    Could this possibly be used to our benefit in an area in which there is heavy pollution?

Dual-fuel vehicles

A recent study shows that dual- fuel vehicles are benefiting the population but, turns out they are costing the environment. While substituting gasoline for ethanol gases, it causes an increase of ultra fine particle matter, with a 30% increase of atmospheric concentration. The problem is that they are less then 50 nanometers in diameter. The nano particles are also not track or regulated by the environmental agencies. We inhale these gases everyday, inhaling ethanol. The most practical way to reduce greenhouse gases is using electric, hybrid and biofuel care.   https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828124546.htm

Acid Zone in Chesapeake Bay Found

     According to the University of Delaware, the Chesapeake Bay is becoming acidic as it has gone to 7.4 pH from an average of 8.2. The oxidation of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide may be the factor that is leading to the higher acidity levels in coastal oceans, but it can eventually lead to more of open oceans. Naturally the waters of the Chesapeake Bay have a regulatory system that holds back the increase of acidity levels in the area, and this works as the dissolving of living shells, non-living aragonite, and calcite minerals. Though nature has a path to keep the waters in the Chesapeake Bay, humans should take more care of our Earth as we have a role in polluting the water and rising the acidity levels in coastal oceans. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828093737.htm
