Fifty years after the blockbuster film “Jaws” turned sharks into the world’s most feared underwater villains, celebrated endurance swimmer Lewis Pugh will seek to rewrite the narrative on sharks for a new generation.
At Green Prophet, we’ve long followed algae’s transformative potential—from algae solar panels and bioplastics to its use in wastewater treatment and as a vegan protein source. Now, as color becomes another frontier of ecological consciousness, we see a full-circle return to Earth’s original pigments.
Don't have a garden? You can still own a fruiting olive tree, grown in a container. A sunny balcony and the right climate are the essential things; that, and time.
If you picture an eco-village, you might imagine a simple dwelling with permaculture gardens and a very slow, rural pace of life. While often true, this rustic image undermines the technology that is increasingly being used to achieve their sustainability – technology that we shouldn’t be frightened of or avoid, but use to harness a […]
According to Palauan legend, a two-headed eel grew with one head on either side of a rock, each unaware of the other. The snakes starved as they pulled each other to go after prey, before realizing they were linked. Only then did they put their heads together, working together to thrive.
I was contemplating how to ready myself for old age, using the body wisely, and still attending to daily routines. Such was the state of inner asking when grace responded with the arrival of MoonCool, an e-trike. Silence is what I did not wish to disturb for me, the forest, and its creatures.
In the remote forests of West and East Africa, a form of communication echoes across the trees—low, percussive thuds made not by humans, but by chimpanzees. Scientists have long known that our closest relatives use calls, facial expressions, and gestures to interact. But a new study reveals something more astonishing: chimpanzees drum.
In the Twende Solar and The Community Project: Ethiopia, the American solar energy systems manufacturer Sol-Ark has helped power a brighter future for students and families in Debre Birhan, Ethiopia, providing them with solar inverter systems for the country's first public K-12 STEM academy.
Patients breathe into a specially designed face mask for three minutes. The mask is then sent to the company’s laboratory, where trained beagles "analyze" the sample under the supervision of an AI system. Each sample undergoes 3 to 5 examinations to ensure high accuracy.
It’s easy to overlook the value of small progress. But choosing to walk instead of driving, standing more often, or adding a five-minute stretch at the end of your day all make a difference. These changes don’t need to be big to be meaningful.
Innovations are also emerging in the realm of energy sourcing. Some mobility scooters are now equipped with solar charging capabilities, allowing users to tap into renewable energy for themselves. Additionally, partnerships between manufacturers and green energy providers are facilitating the development of eco-friendly charging infrastructures, meaning that the electricity powering these scooters is as clean as can be.
Martin Varsavsky, a seasoned entrepreneur behind billion-dollar clean energy exits, says he’s lost faith in the renewable energy paradigm. Moshe Luz, director at Ivanpah, the world’s largest solar thermal power tower project in California’s Mojave Desert, believes just the opposite.
It’s like finding a map back to your grandmother’s pantry, but with the tools of a climate-conscious chef.

Working through the complexities of real estate is challenging. This area has undergone a revolution with the advent of Geographic Information System (GIS) mapping. GIS mapping technology provides a dynamic perspective on interpreting and analyzing data associated with geographic locations. In this article, we will discuss GIS mapping and its transformative effect on real estate.
