All kinds of cool cleantech innovations geared specifically towards the Middle East and Egypt will be on display at Project Lebanon 2011. Today is the opening day of the International Construction and Environmental Technology Trade Exhibition in Beirut. Considered among the key sales and business platforms for people interested in the latest developments in building materials, construction, equipment, and environmental technology, the 16th annual event gets off to a roaring start with biomass boilers, outdoor solar lights,  and a variety of other innovative products.

Lebanon-based Phoenix energy is among the numerous businesses showcasing their latest clean technologies such as the sleek Solior FL 150 solar thermal water heater which can be installed on flat, slanted, or tiled roofs. Project Lebanon takes place in tandem with Energy Lebanon and Lebanon Sustainability Week, which officially kicks off tomorrow. The show will run from today, May 31 2011 through June 3 between 3pm and 10pm at the Beirut International Exhibition & Leisure Center in Beirut’s Central District.

In fact, wherever she traveled – whether it was Viet Nam or South Africa or England – it became clear how inefficiently the mandate to re-think our consumer culture is reaching the general public. Born in Iran, raised in South Africa and the United States, she currently splits her time between Africa and the Middle East. Tafline can be reached at tafline (at) greenprophet (dot) com.

As AI factories consume unprecedented amounts of electricity, NVIDIA is looking beyond chips and data centers to the ocean. The company recently spotlighted Israel's Eco Wave Power and its wave energy projects in Jaffa and Los Angeles, highlighting how AI, digital twins and renewable energy can work together to meet future power demands. The collaboration reflects a growing realization that the future of artificial intelligence may depend as much on clean energy infrastructure as it does on computing power.

Villages are uplifted. Traditional recipes are kept alive not as nostalgia but as knowledge systems: real food is carbon-light, waste-free, and is adapted to the land.

Lebanon’s mountain resorts — from Mzaar Ski Resort Faraya to the Cedars of God in Bsharri — offer rare snow in the Middle East, where you can ski by day and swim in the sea by night. But climate change is shrinking snow seasons fast. Resorts like Zaarour, Laqlouq, Faqra, and the Cedars are adapting, turning toward year-round eco-tourism and mountain conservation.

Tigris River oil spill highlights Iraq’s environmental oversight and our addiction to oil

A fresh oil spill in the Tigris River, filmed by an Iraqi university student, has reignited concern over Iraq's polluted waterways. From ancient Mesopotamia to modern Basra, the country's dependence on oil has come at a steep environmental and human cost, with activists warning that unchecked contamination is putting ecosystems and public health at risk.

Doctor-Led Direct Hair Transplant: What Surgeon Involvement Means for Outcomes

0
Hair restoration technology continues to evolve, but the surgeon behind the procedure remains the most important factor. Doctor-led hair transplants emphasize careful diagnosis, conservative donor management, natural hairline design, and long-term planning rather than simply maximizing graft counts. By treating donor hair as a limited resource and tailoring each procedure to the patient's future hair loss, experienced surgeons can reduce the need for corrective surgery while delivering more natural, sustainable results.

Data centers in Space? Sophia Space and Apex plan on busing them in

0
Can data centers really be built in space? Pasadena-based Sophia Space is partnering with Apex to test the idea by launching modular AI computing systems into low Earth orbit in 2027. Using radiation-hardened compute TILEs cooled by passive radiative systems and mounted on scalable satellite buses, the companies aim to prove that edge computing can operate reliably in space. While challenges remain, the project represents an important step toward distributed orbital computing networks that could support everything from climate monitoring and pollution tracking to autonomous spacecraft navigation in an increasingly crowded orbital environment.
