    In Important Innovations: Collection, Volume 4 we showcase innovation in green, sustainable, zero emissions energy innovation. The examples are fascinating and include outer space orbiting "magic carpets" of solar panels that soak up the sun and transmit electricity back to earth. Also, innovation in fusion technology, which is the same process that keeps the sun and stars burning for billions of years. Nuke fusion converts a small amount of hydrogen into electricity and promises to make other forms of generating electricity obsolete. We showcase small nuclear reactors travelling by truck to deliver power where it's needed. Commercial scale energy kites generating electricity from the wind. Rooftop devices that draw sun power to generate electricity and cold energy from outer space to heat and air condition homes. We detail the first trains and electric planes operating on hydrogen fuel cells. Also, we focus on huge solar farms floating on bodies of water for greater efficiencies. Highly efficient batteries developed from living organisms and powered by light or water are also detailed. The world is demanding cheap, efficient and readily available sources of green, sustainable energy. As a journalist, I'm finding the global scientific community is delivering exciting breakthrough innovations across the energy field. Important Innovations: Collection, Vol. 4 chronicles the latest and greatest energy and power generation innovations in fun, brief, news story reads.

    "Space - The Unknown Regions" chronicles the top space missions and discoveries of the 2020's. It combines three of my most recent books "Search for Life in Space", "Space Mysteries and Wonders 2020's" and "Space - What's Up There?" into one book.The fascination with the possibility of new forms of life existing in space goes back to Ancient Greece and Plato and continues in the 2020's with NASA leading the way. The book includes NASA's unprecedented technology being deployed to search for signs of life on Mars, the Titan Moon and throughout the vast reaches of space. I examine UFO sightings caught on tape by US Navy pilots recently released by the US Department of Defense. The book showcases the big upcoming space missions including the NASA and ESA Blackbird Mission to the Sun, Dragonfly to the Titan Moon, plans for sustainable lunar bases, satellite probes of exoplanets, new stars, new galaxies and new worlds. And the book details the fascinating new discoveries that are unfolding, including SuperEarths, a planet raining diamonds and a star that astronomers say could be older than the Universe itself. If you are interested in the latest, important space missions and discoveries, "Space - The Great Unknown" is the perfect information source for you.

    The plight of polar bears and penguins in the warming world of the Arctic and Antarctic frames where planet earth is headed. We're in a collision course with Climate Change. The Union of Concerned Scientists warn if CO2, methane and nitrous oxide emissions aren't cut by 80% by 2050, the results for life on earth will be disastrous. As of now, those emissions are expected to triple. We're already seeing severe weather, rising water levels, disease outbreaks and environmental stress on humans, animals and plants. In Important Innovations: Collection - Environment, Climate Change and Global Warming, we showcase the latest and most impactful innovations addressing global warming and the latest science on Climate Change. The innovations include new NASA, Chinese and European high precision satellites tracking, measuring and detailing climate change, the winds, weather, atmosphere, ice melt and the oceans. The innovations include a common house plant, treated with a dash of rabbit DNA, that can eliminate indoor air pollution inside your house. We detail new innovation that turns plastics into green, environmentally friendly materials. The book includes Dell Computer's program to convert dumped ocean plastic into PC's. MIT scientists are turning desert air into water. Saudi Arabia is cutting air pollution with innovative honeycomb structures. China is building vertical forest buildings - buildings loaded with thousands of trees and shrubs to increase oxygen and decrease carbon dioxide in the air. The book includes Harvard University's solar geoengineering program to cool the planet. We detail DARPA's ambitious distributed sensor network to monitor global oceans, most of which have been totally unmonitored. We include an innovative initiative of providing bees with tiny backpacks, equipped with sensors, to monitor the environment. Also, detailed is an innovative e-Waste program in Togo, Africa to convert global electronic waste into new electronics and much more. In short, the book provides fascinating news briefs on the latest and most impactful innovations targeting Climate Change and global warming and the latest science tracking it.
