The Weekly Carboholic: Project Vulcan maps US CO2 emissions in detail
2008-04-09 15:30:00 In our first Carboholic, I pointed people at a great new tool to monitor global carbon emissions, the Carma (Carbon Monitoring for Action) website. Today I’d like to point people to a fantastic new scientific tool for monitoring the carbon emissions of the continental United States: Project Vulcan. But first, a YouTube video on the project. Project Vulcan is a joint project of Purdue University, Colorado State University, and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and it was funded jointly by NASA and the Department of Energy. The goal was to create a map of carbon dioxide emissions that was highly detailed both in time and in space. Using other types of pollution that are monitored by the EPA, DoE, et al as proxies for CO2, Vulcan was able to indirectly monitor the concentrations of CO2 in the atmosphere on a 10km uniform grid spaced across the entire United States, and on an hourly basis. Vulcan modeled utilities, industrial sources, and transportation across the c...

Purdue?s 156-Step Burger Maker Wins Rube Goldberg Contest [Rube Goldberg]
2008-04-06 16:45:00 We've brought you Rube Goldberg-style clocks and toys, but none of them are a match for the 156-step device that's just won the annual Rube Goldberg Machine Contest. This year's challenge was to assemble a burger with vegetables, condiments and two bun halves. The meat was pre-cooked... a sensible idea to avoid fires and explosions: you'll understand when you look at the great pics of the machines that MAKE took. Beneath the gallery you'll find a demo video of some of them in action. Sadly we don't have one of the complete 156-step run yet, so you'll just have to imagine its fantasticness. galleryPost('rubemachine1', 3, ''); The whole idea is to create a machine that combines creative thinking with complexity in design, and, most importantly, inefficiency— much in the vein of Goldberg's cartoons. The winning team, the Purdue Society of Professional Engineers, have had plenty of practice at this— they've won two of the previous three contests. Their mach...

Purdue University Develops Mr.Fusion, Finally
2007-02-05 21:18:02 A team of scientists and researchers at Purdue have developed a fully functional Mr. Fusion. (For those who have no idea what I'm talking about, go rent Back to the Future II asap.) This tactical biorefinery can munch up food, paper and plastic garbage and turn it into energy. This machine was commissioned for the U.S. military (so don't expect it on top of your DeLorean anytime soon) for use in the field to create energy. It is roughly the size of a small moving van, so there is still some work that needs to be done to make it a little more functional. This biorefinery can supposedly produce 90-percent more energy than it consumes, which is a damn impressive feat. Next step: flying cars, hoverboards and self-drying clothing. –Travis Hudson Scientists develop portable generator that turns trash into electricity [Via SCI FI]
Purdue collegiates? hunger strike raises awareness of true c
2006-12-08 20:24:02 I applaud and admire the courage of four Purdue University students who are backing up their advocacy for sweatshop laborers rights with deep personal sacrifice: WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) - Some Purdue University students said they would continue their hunger strike despite meeting Wednesday with the school president about their campaign to support garment industry workers in foreign countries. Purdue President Martin Jischke said he would consider the students’ call for the school to adopt a monitoring program aimed at stopping the use of what activists call sweatshop labor to make Boilermaker apparel. He also urged the 15 students to end their hunger strike, which some started on Nov. 17. About 40 supporters rallied on campus while four hunger strikers met with Jischke and other administrators. Mark Franciose, a student who took part in the meeting, said he spent two hours Tuesday night at a hospital taking in intravenous fluids after not eating solid food for 19 days. ̵...
