Clean energy made from what we call waste. Scientist have come up with a material that will enable us to use the waste from generators and cars. This new material called thallium-doped lead telluride combined with electric generators and water instead of gas turns the waste into electricity immediately.
Scientist believe over half of the gasoline's energy would lost in combination with a device with thallium-doped lead telluride material. This would reduce wear and tear on the car. The best thing about the thallium-doped lead telluride material is no pollution.
Formally the most effect commercially known material was thermoelectricity. I guess we can all say change is not such a bad thing.

Thirsty....
We all need a break from the bills that we feel are too high. Mayor Bloomberg is install wireless water meter that will give more of an accurate reading. New Yorkers will have there meters read at least four times a day instead of quarterly. The wireless water meter readers could show a reduction of bills up to 90 million dollars citywide.
The meters will be connected to transmitters intertwined with other meters that then send data throughout the city. This will then allow customer to receive accurate usage and billing.
I think this could be a good thing. They install the meters at no cost to you. The meters not only track your water usage it can also alert you or your landlord of potential leaks. Seems Mayor Bloomberg might have a winner.....

BLACKOUT!!!!!!!
A new cable wire will be put into Manhattan's financial district. Why is this so important? Only because it will still be able to give out power during those notorious New York blackouts. It will work in a way that linked-up power stations will be able to back the other it a failure was ever to occur.
With over 60,00 amps running through the cable at once it is bound to get hot. This is why scientist will cool it with liquid nitrogen. More power can run through this cable than any copper cable it's size.
The last blackout that occurred cos over 6 billion dollars. With a technology set into place such as this will help save alot of money. Putting a cable in the financial district seems to be a great idea right about now. The last thing the world need is to lose track of our finances.
