This amazing, modern tiny house is sure to impress! The entire home is luxury through and through, but best of all, this is a home which allows its owners, Bela and Spencer, to live a life of their choosing, enabling them to travel the world together with their young daughter, Escher.
Located in southern California, the home is designed to take advantage of the fantastic weather and has indoor / outdoor living in mind. A lot of thought has gone into making this a truly functional home for the family, while remaining luxurious throughout.
Best of all, Bela and Spencer are able to rent out their home for two thirds of the year, helping to fund their world-wide travels while also giving them a stable place to call home. You can find out more about Bela and Spencers adventures on their blog: https://thisxlife.com/
Climate change is a reality, and the environmental threats disrupting our economies and lives are connected in unexpected ways. Find out what we need to do to prepare for a warming planet.
This lab is planning to test the world’s first solar geoengineering experiment in the field. Here’s why that’s so controversial.
Solar geoengineering, an idea that picked up steam over a decade ago when a Nobel Prize winning scientist called for more research on this climate engineering intervention, is back in the news. The idea made it into the 2019 UN Environment Assembly agenda and was used to kickstart a global conversation surrounding the contentious response to the climate crisis.
With growing urgency and scientific interest, a team at Harvard University took up the charge to investigate solar geoengineering in a fully fledged research program.
Solar geoengineering involves a plan that would disperse particles into the stratosphere and could ultimately reduce global temperatures by bouncing the Sun’s rays back into space.
However, this type of geoengineering intervention would not fix the root cause, which is the rising funnel of greenhouse gas emissions that are getting trapped in our atmosphere.
