The Window Socket offers a neat way to harness solar energy and use it as a plug socket. So far we have seen solutions that act as a solar battery backup, but none as a direct plug-in. Simple in design, the plug just attaches to any window and does its job intuitively.

I’m on mobile so the last thing won’t load but I’m gonna bet everything that it’s the squid ward “future” thing
As the balls degrade, they can emit toxic chemicals. And there appear
to be lots of them in certain places underwater — right next to coastal
golf courses.
ppl touting animal ag as THE cause of climate change are taking the heat off of oil companies which can only be harmful
The main cause of climate change
IS
Fossil
Fuels.
This isn’t even controversial or “uwu close”. Everyone changing their diet won’t mean a damn thing if companies keep burning coal and drilling for oil.
Animal agriculture is basically using food to make less food so that privileged people can eat decomposing flesh and then waste half of it. 🤷🏽♀️
I honestly don’t think distributing corn stalks and wheat byproducts to poor people is gonna help much but go ahead and tell me more about how you don’t know what “decomposing flesh” is.
So very little goes to waste in the agricultural sector. The “waste” products from corn, soy, wheat, rice, cotton, brewer’s grains, and various other crops all have applications as animal feedstuffs. In turn, the “waste” products produced by animals often return to the cycle as fertilizers, calcium and other nutritive supplements, textiles, pet foods, and treats/chews. There’s even new research that suggests that animal fat could be used to produce biodiesel or a more environmentally friendly plastic than that which is currently made from petroleum products, and scientists are currently working toward finding other uses.
Whether you like it or not, crop production and animal management have a symbiotic relationship in much of the world. Don’t believe me? Let’s look at the research:
Mixed crop-livestock farming (an international study prepared by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations)
This is just a small sample of the evidence suggesting that livestock are beneficial to the production of plant-based foods at almost every stage, and vice versa. One cannot thrive without the other.
Science has proven that a strict vegan diet has a higher carbon footprint than a more omnivorous one, and herd animals, wild or domesticated, produce less greenhouse gasses than even the most gas-efficient automobile, yet we and they are the ones who get the bad rap from vegans.
Genuinely happy for people who can afford this product and love it but not everyone has that privilege.
The environmental argument only really works against people who support factory farming and large scale agriculture, and not everyone does and some people literally can’t help it.
