London set the record in pollution. I thought it was bad but not this bad. What they want to do to reduce pollution will help but will not be enough.

It would be hard to send a clearer signal of Beijing's determination to grab the globalization torch from the US than Xi Jinping's decision to become the first-ever Chinese president to attend this week's annual World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, just three days before Trump is sworn in as president in Washington.

Interesting to see that Toyota, a pioneer in eletric/hybrid cars is investing in Fuel cells. And Shell is also on the same mood.

Toyota Motor Corp. and four of its biggest car-making peers are joining oil and gas giants including Royal Dutch Shell Plc and Total SA with plans to invest a combined 10 billion euros ($10.7 billion) in hydrogen-related products within five years.

"New data from China’s National Energy Administration (NEA) has revealed that an additional 34.24GW of solar was connected to the country’s grid in 2016.

"New data from China’s National Energy Administration (NEA) has revealed that an additional 34.24GW of solar was connected to the country’s grid in 2016.

There is now a total of 77.42GW of solar PV. The 126% increase in annual installation outstrips the NEA’s cumulative market growth figure of 81.6%. A surge in connections occurred in the first half of 2016 as developers looked to guarantee their feed-in tariff before a planned drop. Almost two thirds (22GW) of the 2016 total was installed in H1."

Interesting also to see the installed capacity per country population.

China installed 34 GW of solar in 2016 (US installed 9 GW). The world leaders in total solar installed capacity are China 77 GW, Germany 44 GW, Japan 42 GW, US 36 GW, Italy 20 GW, UK 10 GW, India 8 GW, France 7 GW, Australia 5 GW (huge for such a tiny population). Italy and Germany have highest per capita installations now, but will be overtaken by other countries in 10 years probably. Most nations have less than 4 GW, 95% of nations.

See why (eco🌎+public health🌈+☮etc reasons) i installed ☀☀️ solar panels equivalent to planting 322 trees ► https://plus.google.com/+AlexP/posts/FHtw2ri5Dq8 and why i drive an electric car equivalent to planting 382 trees (if the oil car would be refilled weekly) ► https://plus.google.com/+AlexP/posts/TQboBAji7uo.
If your panels produce more electricity than you use, you get free charging for your car too, like me. 💜😊💜

Interesting panel discussion regarding smartcities. One important topic not so much addressed in this panel is the energy side, where a smart city should as much as possible produce the energy required to operate. Renewable technology and different types of energy storage would be a must as well as all technologies regarding water recicling and waste disposal. The SCADA systems required to manage these different distributed technologies is a real challenge.

Artificial Intelligence to Secure Biodiversity

Some really interesting applications of machine learning to assist in protecting sea birds, frogs, elephants, fish and Egyptian fruit bats. The most interesting one is the use of machine learning to decipher communications between individual fruit bats. Dr. Doolittle, you were ahead of your time.

Solar power is now cheaper than coal in some parts of the world. In less than a decade, it’s likely to be the lowest-cost option almost everywhere.
