Battery vs Supercapacitor - Why not best of both?
Supercapacitors charge and discharge rapidly, don't lose total capacity over time like batteries do, can operate in a wide range of temperatures and can be super light and thin. But unlike batteries, they can't provide a steady, slow release of energy, they can't really hold onto a lot of energy, nor can they hold onto their charge for too long and their energy density tends to be lower. But what if you could combine the best of a supercapacitor with the best of a battery?Researchers at QUT might just have done that, creating a long-life, super-charged material.https://www.qut.edu.au/research/article?id=173028

An Artistic Experiment in New Zealand
Paul Bradley transformed Rostrevor Street into a public space open to people and closed to cars. Sections of Rostrevor and Ward streets in central Hamilton, New Zealand was closed or partially closed to vehicles as part of Waka Kotahi’s Innovating Streets Project. Hamilton City Council received $902,000 from an agency to determine if the area was safer and more appealing to people after the Innovating Streets project. Council removed car parks, closed the road, and created a people-friendly zone where kids could skateboard or scooter and others can hang out in the park.

The impact of corporations on the economy and households - future impacts
McKinsey Global Institute's latest report of 38 OECD countries (inc Australia) (link below) looked at the value generated by 8 types of companies and how economic value flows to households and the broader economy, and trends in the last few decades. Globally, the patterns are quite different. Which one(s) do you think have the potential for equality, quality of life and better prosperity? There are some worrying trends for labour markets and if our education 'critical infrastructure' isn't invested in what do you think this means for Australians and globally?Image credit:https://www.mckinsey.com/business-functions/strategy-and-corporate-
