Even as we move towards a greater reliance of aquaculture  - providing nearly 50 percent of the fish eaten worldwide – it may not be enough to meet the growing demand. Add to this the fact that fish farming suffers from many of the same problems as industrial livestock operations – the spread of disease and waste – along with carrying the fear that these “cultivated species” could potentially overrun native populations, and we’re facing a scenario with no easy solution.Read more...]]> http://www.psfk.com/2009/05/cuttlefish-inspired-flat-screens.html Fri, 15 May 2009 18:53:38 +0000 Researchers at MIT are using biomimicry to create TV screens that use dramatically less energy than existing models. Using the camouflaging techniques deployed by cuttlefish as a model, the MIT group has been able to power these displays with less than  0.01% of the power used by conventional screens. Ecofriend explains: The researchers stated that cuttlefish change their appearance in a few seconds by secreting special chemicals to alter the spacing between their membranes. This low-energy technique seen in cuttlefish has been mimicked by the researchers to develop low-power displays. These researchers have developed a prototype screen that is severalRead more...]]>
