Why renewables can’t save the planet | Michael Shellenberger | TEDxDanubia
Environmentalists have long promoted renewable energy sources like solar panels and wind farms to save the climate. But what about when those technologies destroy the environment? In this provocative talk, Time Magazine “Hero of the Environment” and energy expert, Michael Shellenberger explains why solar and wind farms require so much land for mining and energy production, and an alternative path to saving both the climate and the natural environment. Michael Shellenberger is a Time Magazine Hero of the Environment and President of Environmental Progress, a research and policy organization. A lifelong environmentalist, Michael changed his mind about nuclear energy and has helped save enough nuclear reactors to prevent an increase in carbon emissions equivalent to adding more than 10 million cars to the road. He lives in Berkeley, California. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
Inside Intel's lab: First look at new foldable laptop PC
At CES, Intel showed off a foldable screen 2-in-1 that can fold from a 17.3-inch tablet into a 12.5-inch clamshell-style laptop. CNET got an exclusive in-depth look at the foldable PC prototype which is codenamed Horseshoe Bend.
What began as crude foam cutouts is now a working computer that could hit store shelves in 2021 — if Intel persuades PC makers to turn the prototype into their own products. Following in the footsteps of foldable phones like the Samsung Galaxy Fold and Motorola Razr, the Horseshoe Bend foldable PC is the next step in a profound change to mobile devices that flexible screens make possible.
