...broader spectrum of skills required by the new rules." Schools could lobby the state to let them count the math and science concepts covered in such technical classes as architectural drawing (which is 90% geometry, Graham contends) and metals technology (which requires students to understand how varying levels of carbon content change the way steel reacts to being heated and cooled, for instance) to meet the new guidelines...

...higher than permissible amounts, since levels fluctuate over time and water is tested only intermittently, while other phthalates are not regulated at all. So consumers may decide to use a home water treatment method. The best way to remove phthalates from drinking water is by using a granular activated carbon (GAC) filter. There are no regulatory requirements for phthalates in bottled water at all. The National Resources Defense Council tested a number of brands of bottled water and some, but not all , contained phthalates...

...with electricity and gas prices rocketing, users would be "much less vulnerable to fluctuations in the future." Moreover, without leaning heavily on traditional sources of fuel (the pumps forcing the salt and water around the machine are electric but use only 100 watts), the average home could reduce carbon dioxide output by 13 tons a year...

...issues such as climate change and energy independence, thanks in large part to national media and to the successful publicity campaigns of student groups like the EAC this fall. Now is the time to capitalize on that enthusiasm. According to the EAC, FAS produces 100,000 metric tons of carbon emissions each year. An 11 percent reduction of this number would be consistent with the policy already in place in 31 American cities and Yale University’s recent pledge to reduce emissions by 10 percent. We have faith that given a message of support from undergraduates, the Harvard...

...potential uses of DeepStream's technology are endless. The company envisions sensors that detect wasted motor motion, power surges, electrical loss, overheating and unnecessary lighting - leading to vast improvements in efficiency, perhaps saving half a billion tons of carbon emissions in Britain alone each year. "Energy sensors are going to be a massive part of our future," says Crosier. Perhaps Eaton would like to buy some...
