The Platio Solar Paver is a solar panel that can be installed into residential driveways with the aim of providing clean electricity for your house or electric car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best bit? Each Solar Paver is made from 400 PET bottles \u2013 i.e. the most common bottle used to package drinking water or fizzy drinks. The waste caused by these bottles is causing an ecological crisis that \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/2017\/jun\/28\/a-million-a-minute-worlds-plastic-bottle-binge-as-dangerous-as-climate-change\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rivals the threat of climate change<\/a>.\u201d Platio says the PET bottles are more durable than concrete when compressed into pavers. In terms of efficiency, the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/platiosolar.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">company is confident\u00a0<\/a>that a 20m<sup>2\u00a0<\/sup>paver can produce enough energy to power an average household for 12 months. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Clear blue skies in India<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve grown accustomed to seeing absurd stories in the daily news; things that just a couple of months ago would\u2019ve been truly unthinkable. High on the list of \u201cyou gotta be kidding me\u201d headlines was the announcement in late March that India\u2019s 1.3 billion-strong population would be going into lockdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The logistics of this are mind-boggling, particularly given the number of people\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/niallmccarthy\/2019\/07\/12\/report-india-lifted-271-million-people-out-of-poverty-in-a-decade-infographic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">living in poverty in India<\/a>\u00a0is higher than the entire population of Western Europe. But the lockdown imposed by PM Narendra Modi has inadvertently produced one of the Coronavirus\u2019 most touching silver linings stories. Namely, the removal of cars from roads across the country has brought about a drastic reduction in air pollution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>India is typically home to some of the world\u2019s dirtiest air \u2014 the skies in New Delhi tend to be a murky shade of grey. Now, however, residents are looking up (presumably from their bedroom windows) to glimpse bright\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/npr.org\/sections\/coronavirus-live-updates\/2020\/04\/10\/831592401\/with-coronavirus-lockdown-indias-cities-see-clear-blue-skies-as-air-pollution-dr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">blue skies<\/a>. Delhi has been known to report air pollution 20 times higher than what\u2019s deemed safe by the WHO. But in recent weeks the city\u2019s air has jumped into the \u201cgood\u201d category on the Air Quality Index.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Koalas return home<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>2019 was Australia\u2019s hottest year on record. So hot, in fact, that the country\u2019s bushfire season started in winter. The most populated state, New South Wales, recorded its worst fires on record in terms of area burned and properties destroyed. The NSW fires are also estimated to have killed\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatecouncil.org.au\/resources\/summer-of-crisis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">800 million animals.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Volunteers, fire fighters and animal protection organisations worked hard to save as many animals as possible. This included a heroic effort to rescue several koalas from a koala hotspot on NSW\u2019s mid-north coast. The severely burnt koalas were then taken to the Port Macquarie Koala Hospital, where they have since been tenderly resuscitated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the hospital\u2019s most famous patients is\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.koalaexpress.com.au\/Koala_News.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Anwen<\/a>, who became a social media celebrity after she was rescued from the fires with burns on 90% of her body. The hospital\u2019s clinical director, Cheyne Flanagan,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.abc.net.au\/news\/2020-04-03\/bushfire-koala-victim-anwen-returned-home\/12119994\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">told the ABC<\/a>\u00a0that Anwen\u2019s \u201cburns have healed, she&#8217;s [had] good claw-return, so it&#8217;s all about letting them be koalas again.\u201d As a result, Anwen and several other koalas were recently returned to their natural habitat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">South Korea gets its first feminist political party<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Women\u2019s Party launched in South Korea on International Women\u2019s Day (March 8). It\u2019s the country\u2019s first ever feminist party and the party\u2019s formation reflects the growing feminist movement in the Korean Republic. The Women\u2019s Party had already attracted 8,000 members by the time of its launch, with co-founder Kim Eun-ju\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-southkorea-women-rights-trfn\/south-koreas-first-feminist-party-launches-on-international-womens-day-idUSKBN20Q11E\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">telling Reuters<\/a>\u00a0that \u201cWomen\u2019s [issues] have been marginalised by other parties and we want to put them at the forefront.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>South Korea has a poor historical record on sexual discrimination and violence. The socially conservative, patriarchal nation continues to uphold strict&nbsp;beauty standards&nbsp;and only last year lifted a decades-old abortion ban. There is still much work to be done and the Women\u2019s party hope to lead the way. \u201cWe want to highlight the seriousness of discrimination, violence and inequality against women,\u201d said Kim Eun-ju.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019re currently enduring the worst public health pandemic in 100 years.
