To them, the most three basic things people need in life are Lights, Health and Water. And they work together to make huge innovation for the human. But they mostly focus on the poor people who don’t have chance to join the modern life

The first invention is about Electricity. They invented an equipment that calls hybrid bicycle. How can this operate? A person pedals the hybrid bicycle, which drives a flywheel system, which turns a generator, which charges a battery and you can use for 24 hours. That’s so amazing! It helps all the poor have electricity 24/7, enables them become a part of a productive society. In addition to, it never generates any pollution. Right now, we are pumping 25 billion pounds of Co2 to the air, it can cause Green houses and many problems. But this machine, it not only helps you have electricity but also gets you stronger and healthier. And it’s very simple.

The second invention is about Energy. They have discovered a material called Graphene, underneath the ground. It made out of graphite. Graphene is hundred times better conductor than copper, lighter than air, stronger than steel, transfer heat really efficiently. If you put hundred degrees here, you get hundred on the other side instantly, in the middle is completely cool. The heat that you put in, you get all the way there, whether you go 10 feet or you go miles, you could bring up unlimited energy from deep underground to the surface and pollution free. How’s great! They made Graphene as a cable and put it underneath the ground. That cable can bring up the heat. They sent this invention to Singapore because this country is neutral. Singapore don’t export the diesel and Singapore could expand it and send it to the rest of the world.

The third invention is about Water. They made Rain project, they invented an equipment that can turn seawater and dirty water into fresh water, use for agriculture, drinking or industrial applications. And most importantly, it does not require any operational support. It heats water, then you have water vapour, take that moisture into different compartment, distill it and the steam or vapour turns into water. Basically, it takes energy to heat the water and then energy is released when you turn it back to water, so they take that energy and recycle it back to heating water again. This machine can do a thousand gallons per an hour. It cannot turn the seawater into drinking water because it still has too much salt, but it can use for agriculture, commercial use. This equipment can help to resolve the drought in China, Africa,… And help the Africa have clean water to drink.

The fourth invention is about Health. They made ECP project, ECP stands for external counter pulsation. How it works? The ECP squeezes blood from the legs back into the core body and assists the heart while the heart is resting. It acts almost like an auxiliary heart. The arteries become wider which lets blood passed more easily. Therefore, it makes people healthier. The equipment is less than a minute to operate and small enough to put in a corner. In addition to, it plugs into a normal 110 volt plug. To them, inventing this machine is to stop disease before it starts.

This mission of this company is "TO SAVE MEAT. AND EARTH." They have invented "the meat" from plants to you for all kind of barbecues, hamburger,.. It tastes exactly like meat from flavor, aroma. What is the differences between Impossible Foods and traditional company? Let's take a look on how this company established!
Impossible Foods began in 2011 with an ambitious goal: To drastically reduce humanity’s destructive impact on the global environment by completely replacing the use of animals as a food production technology. Their main goal is about protecting environment. And from this, they creates benefits for shareholder and society. They see the problems of using animals for food production. It causes greenhouse gas, wasting water, using vast majority land, decreasing wildlife population. So they came up with the idea made food from plants but getting enough nutrients, even more. And now, they succeed with the meat. Their product has been generally recognized as safe (GRAS) to eat by the US Food and Drug Administration. You can find them and try!]]> 2018-07-26 22:35:51 UTC https://padlet.com/linhnguyen3066/mypractices01/wish/271234718
