A team from the Weizmann Institute’s Organic Chemistry Department has demonstrated a novel approach for splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen, driven by sunlight. The metal complex of the element ruthenium is a ‘smart’ complex in which the metal center and the organic part attached to it cooperate in the cleavage of the water molecule.

A Perfect Storm for Water Counting Calories and Counting Carbon: The Role of. Driving range will no longer be an obstacle, because customers will be able to plug their cars into charging units in any of the 500,000 charging spots in Israel. Shai Agassi predicts that Israel will have over 100,000 electric vehicles in use by 2010.

An injection well pumps water into this hot layer where it is turned to steam. Part of Mr. Agassi’s model depends on quick-change service stations to swap batteries for drivers who need to use their cars before they have completely recharged their batteries. It’s a little bit more complex than that, but not much.

A study by researchers in Israel and the US has found that single (“sub-clinical”) exposure to extracts from particulate material (PM) collected in a near roadway environment can induce a transient oxidative stress and inflammation in mice’ lungs. They collected PM samples from a roadside monitoring site in central London in early July 2012.
