5 Signs the California Drought Could Get Worse

Anastasia Pantsios, EcoWatchCalifornia is entering its fourth year of drought, with high temperatures, water shortages and increased wildfires. The state has taken some steps to address the impacts of that, including addressing greenhouse gas emissions and rationing its diminishing water supply. But there are signs that the impacts of drought on the state could get even worse.1. A new study shows that if greenhouse gas emissions continue to ris [...]

Future Tech Watch ~ High-tech mirrors to beam heat from buildings into space ~ May replace air conditioning

By Chris Cesare

A new ultrathin multilayered material can cool buildings without air conditioning by radiating warmth from inside the buildings into space while also reflecting sunlight to reduce incoming heat.

Stanford engineers have invented a material designed to help cool buildings. The material reflects incoming sunlight, and it sends heat from inside the structure directly into space as infrared radiation (represented by reddish rays).

Stanford engineers have invented a revolutionary coating material that can help cool buildings, even on sunny days, by radiating heat away from the buildings and sending it directly into space.

A team led by electrical engineering Professor Shanhui Fan and research associate Aaswath Raman reported this energy-saving breakthrough in the journal Nature.

The heart of the invention is an ultrathin, multilayered material that deals with light, both invisible and visible, in a new way.

Invisible light in the form of infrared radiation is one of the ways that all objects and living things throw off heat. When we stand in front of a closed oven without touching it, the heat we feel is infrared light. This invisible, heat-bearing light is what the Stanford invention shunts away from buildings and sends into space.

Of course, sunshine also warms buildings. The new material, in addition dealing with infrared light, is also a stunningly efficient mirror that reflects virtually all of the incoming sunlight that strikes it.

The result is what the Stanford team calls photonic radiative cooling – a one-two punch that offloads infrared heat from within a building while also reflecting the sunlight that would otherwise warm it up. The result is cooler buildings that require less air conditioning.

"This is very novel and an extraordinarily simple idea," said Eli Yablonovitch, a professor of engineering at the University of California, Berkeley, and a pioneer of photonics who directs the Center for Energy Efficient Electronics Science. "As a result of professor Fan's work, we can now [use radiative cooling], not only at night but counter-intuitively in the daytime as well."

The researchers say they designed the material to be cost-effective for large-scale deployment on building rooftops. Though still a young technology, they believe it could one day reduce demand for electricity. As much as 15 percent of the energy used in buildings in the United States is spent powering air conditioning systems.

In practice the researchers think the coating might be sprayed on a more solid material to make it suitable for withstanding the elements.

"This team has shown how to passively cool structures by simply radiating heat into the cold darkness of space," said Nobel Prize-winning physicist Burton Richter, professor emeritus at Stanford and former director of the research facility now called the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.

A warming world needs cooling technologies that don't require power, according to Raman, lead author of the Nature paper. 

"Across the developing world, photonic radiative cooling makes off-grid cooling a possibility in rural regions, in addition to meeting skyrocketing demand for air conditioning in urban areas," he said.

Using a window into space

The real breakthrough is how the Stanford material radiates heat away from buildings.

As science students know, heat can be transferred in three ways: conduction, convection and radiation. Conduction transfers heat by touch. That's why you don't touch an oven pan without wearing a mitt. Convection transfers heat by movement of fluids or air. It's the warm rush of air when the oven is opened. Radiation transfers heat in the form of infrared light that emanates outward from objects, sight unseen.
The first part of the coating's one-two punch radiates heat-bearing infrared light directly into space. The ultrathin coating was carefully constructed to send this infrared light away from buildings at the precise frequency that allows it to pass through the atmosphere without warming the air, a key feature given the dangers of global warming.

"Think about it like having a window into space," said Fan.

Aiming the mirror

But transmitting heat into space is not enough on its own.
This multilayered coating also acts as a highly efficient mirror, preventing 97 percent of sunlight from striking the building and heating it up.

"We've created something that's a radiator that also happens to be an excellent mirror," said Raman.

Together, the radiation and reflection make the photonic radiative cooler nearly 9 degrees Fahrenheit cooler than the surrounding air during the day.

From prototype to building panel

Making photonic radiative cooling practical requires solving at least two technical problems.

The first is how to conduct the heat inside the building to this exterior coating. Once it gets there, the coating can direct the heat into space, but engineers must first figure out how to efficiently deliver the building heat to the coating.

The second problem is production. Right now the Stanford team's prototype is the size of a personal pizza. Cooling buildings will require large panels. The researchers say there exist large-area fabrication facilities that can make their panels at the scales needed.

The cosmic fridge

More broadly, the team sees this project as a first step toward using the cold of space as a resource. In the same way that sunlight provides a renewable source of solar energy, the cold universe supplies a nearly unlimited expanse to dump heat.

"Every object that produces heat has to dump that heat into a heat sink," Fan said. "What we've done is to create a way that should allow us to use the coldness of the universe as a heat sink during the day."

In addition to Fan, Raman and Zhu, this paper has two additional co-authors: Marc Abou Anoma, a master's student in mechanical engineering who has graduated; and Eden Rephaeli, a doctoral student in applied physics who has graduated.

What is Enlightenment?

Thomas Razzeto, GrahamHancock.comMy most passionate plea is for you to wake up to your true self as pure awareness. We have all heard it said that you are not a human being having a spiritual experience, but instead, you are a spiritual being having a human experience. Yet you are not a being of any kind, spiritual or physical. You are pure awareness! And most importantly, your awareness is the One Awareness – the Divine Awareness – and as such, it is the only reality tha [...]

THE WATERS OF THE LOVING HEART

 
THE WATERS OF THE LOVING HEART
 
ARTIST UNKNOWN...
 
GREETINGS UNTO YOU....
 
heart of my heart....
 
your consciousness is liken to the ocean
vast.....unlimited....all encompassing...
in truth...it is your god given divinity
 
with each choice for love
you add to the ocean of love
bringing forth waves of light
that land upon the shores of time...
 
 
you see dear one..
love waits on "your" welcome...!!!!!!
 
you are the "movers" of love....!!!!!!
 
see yourself this day as the very bottle above
whose purpose is to add to the totality
of the ocean by  pouring your thoughts of love
unimpeded.............just allow them to flow freely
through your divine mind so that their effects
can add to the ocean of love itself....
 
(the ocean of love a symbol of
the one mind that all swim within)
 
you do this by allowing your thoughts of love
to "flow freely" undisturbed by any and all
circumstance....
thus...love itself..life itself
becomes your responsibility as you continue
to "pass the wine" into all of creation
by your non resistance to loves presence...
 
each loving thought adds to the momentum
of the flow of love
within and without all of creation...
 
see yourself as the angels of creation that you
truly are...
angels of love simply expand loves presence
by being of service to the unexplainable mystery
that abba...love is...
 
they simply "move with the wind"
not knowing where they are going
not having any agenda
other than being the extension of love
right where they find themselves to be..
 
this day....precious..precious one
allow your waters of love to touch and heal
all things
simply by your choice to keep your
waters within a     ~free flow~...
 
one thought of judgment stops the ~ flow~...
 
one thought of separation from me
stops the ~ flow~...
 
yet every thought of love..
every remembrance of our union
every choice to embrace all
allows the waters to flow..touch and lift
all of creation....
 
this momentum of loves remembrance
will take on such a "spin "
that in the twinkling of an eye
all minds will wake up and remember
their union with me...
 
this is how important retraining the mind
is to the "whole of creation"
 
would you choose to "be that one""
who willingly and humbly takes on
the responsibility of "lifting the whole"
by remembering your loving thoughts...???    
 
the waters of grace will fill you
and you will ~know once again~
that love itself is your      ~ beloved~.... 
 
be at peace this day
and know you are deeply loved....
 
 
 
~the voice of love~
 
thru
 
denisa
 
 
feel free to pass these along................please do keep the email address for others...
if you would like to be added to this list simply send me an email...
touch a heart with your loving thoughts this day...............each day........
remember that love waits on "our" welcome..................we are the "movers" of love itself....
