...potential for greater energy production than photovoltaic cells—and to harvest the abundant energy of high-altitude winds. Google’s goal is to bring the cost of its renewable energy below that of today’s cheapest, but most environmentally harmful option: coal.The search is on for what a McKinsey analysis calls “breakthrough innovations”—the sort that could reduce greenhouse gas output far beyond today’s optimistic projections. One such technology is the magnetic levitation wind turbine, a colossal rotating structure that uses magnetic levitation...
...March 21, 2002, after paddling his red kayak into the North Sea. His wife reported him missing that night, and despite a frantic rescue effort - which combed 200 sq. mi. (518 sq. km) of sea and included nearly a dozen boats and a Royal Air Force helicopter - the search party found no trace of the former prison officer.

...could not fathom an experienced kayaker drowning on a day when the sea was unusually placid, and the location where Darwin's vessel washed ashore defied tidal patterns. "It didn't add up," David Young, a ward council member in Seaton Carew, told TIME, adding that fishermen joked the search team would have better luck canvassing the sun-drenched resorts dotting Spain's Costa del Sol.

An oar drifted ashore the next day, and after a fruitless search, the shattered remains of his vessel were found on a local beach six weeks later. Despite this evidence, suspicion lingered that there was something incongruous about an experienced kayaker drowning on a day when the sea was, in the words of one member of the rescue effort, "smooth as a millpond." Even before it emerged that...
