Entire earth is getting new covering and this is excessive harmful as well. Can we imagine the packaging left no waste behind? Because ample of wastage is caused due to fancy packaging. Indian startups are using seaweed to create eco-friendly alternatives to plastic. Could this ocean innovation change everything? As the world fights the mounting crisis of plastic pollution, innovators are turning to nature for sustainable alternatives. One such promising solution is seaweed — a marine plant with the potential to revolutionise the packaging industry.  Biodegradable, renewable, and abundant, seaweed-based packaging offers a viable replacement for conventional plastic. With India’s long coastline and rich marine biodiversity, seaweed farming is not only environmentally sustainable but also economically beneficial for coastal communities. Several Indian start-ups are now harnessing this resource to create packaging solutions that are both effective and eco-friendly. Why seaweed? Seawee...

Plastic waste is a menace in present scenario. To be counted as a sustainable innovation, some genuine research works should be done, that can enables in transformation trouble causing material into some useful one. Scientists have found methods to convert plastic waste into valuable chemicals. One approach breaks plastics into olefins for producing alcohols, while another transforms them into fatty acids for detergents. These processes reduce reliance on fossil fuels and support a more sustainable plastic economy. Turning Plastic Waste into High-Value Chemicals Researchers have developed new methods to transform common plastic waste — polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) — into valuable chemical products such as alcohols, aldehydes, surfactants, and detergents. These innovations could support a circular plastics economy by making chemical production more sustainable. Plastic waste is increasingly recognized as a potential source of raw material for high-value chemicals. However, ...

India's economy is backed by the agriculture and our country is blessed with favourable agriculture condition. According to statistics from the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) of the United Nations, India is the largest producer of milk, jute and pulses and the second-largest producer of rice, wheat, sugarcane, cotton, groundnuts and fruit and vegetables. While agriculture came to India thousands of years ago and was flourishing, then Britishers had ruined everything along with agriculture, in modern times, it was the Green Revolution, led by agricultural scientist MS Swaminathan, that supercharged the country’s farm sector. Today, with the emergence of the agritech space, India is standing on the cusp of a fourth revolution. Imperative to mention that the country’s agritech ecosystem is a juggernaut in the making. Having embraced IoT-enabled agricultural practices to now AI-enabled machines and tech, this burgeoning sector is writing the next chapter of the country’s far...

We all know that time seems to pass at different speeds in different situations. For example, time appears to go slowly when we travel to unfamiliar places. A week in a foreign country seems much longer than week at home. Time also seems to pass slowly when we are bored, or in pain. It seems to speed up when we’re in a state of absorption, such as when we play music or chess, or paint or dance. More generally, most people report time seems to speed up as they get older. However, these variations in time perception are quite mild. Our experience of time can change in a much more radical way. The reasons why time can speed up and slow down are a bit of a mystery. Some researchers, including me, think that mild variations in time perception are linked to information processing. As a general rule, the more information – such as perceptions, sensations, thoughts – that our minds process, the slower time seems to pass. Time passes slowly to children because they live in a world of newness. N...

I was trying to be smart, but suddenly my conscious has restricted the thought and after realization, that smartness was abandoned by me. But what ignited the thought, what feeling is it, how influential is it, and to what extent does it continues. All such answers converges at consciousness. Presently the subject Artificial Intelligence is in vogue, what exactly is AI? It is an innovative techniques involves complex mathematical equations they enables in generating machines who can act like humans and imitates their actions. Computers are using several methodologies that enables in developing human like intelligence, like recognizing images, understanding speech, making decisions, and translating languages. Consciousness is everything we experience and feel. It is the tune stuck in your head, the sweetness of chocolate mousse, the throbbing pain of a toothache, the fierce love for your child and the bitter knowledge that eventually all feelings will end. The existence of consciousnes...
