The Horse 2020/21

Environment & Technology

Produce water

Material: tantalum hafnium carbide (melting point: 4215 degrees Celsius).

Heat: Heat 2000+ degrees Celsius

Conduit: Platinum/Diamond

Hydrogen = Water

Namely: it's like a bowl heated by a lighter.

You take the strongest material & heat it. The heat is controlled and
heated by electricity. Thus hydrogen is produced and finally flows down to the
tap water.
I added a filter to it because the water needs to be cooled.
In the end, we have drinkable water that will last forever.

Hello Everybody,

Are you a "sustainable textile consumer"? Just find it out by filling out our survey: https://ee.humanitarianresponse.info/x/1vUy0tvN

Thank you very much! It's a collaboration project with Kerala, India - we are looking forward to our results that will be published on dontwastemy.energy

Best, Sandrine & Kerala Team 

What we achieved today (03.06.2021) and forecast in three weeks (24.06.2021)

Today

Today we concluded our personal research for this project. We find that the information we have now is enough, otherwise our project post would become out of hand.

Also we contacted the people responsible for the clima pavillion in Zurich to find out, what they need for us for our collaboration.

Our collaboration team from Kerala has exams at the moment, which means they will send their document with their research as soon as their exams are through (estimated in about one or two weeks). 

In three weeks

Due to final exams which are held here at our school, we will not have school for the next two weeks. That means we will not be working on this project as actively until the 24th of June.

On the 24th we will evaluate and analyze our survey and add it to our final document.

Also we will include the research of the team from Kerala into our document as well.

Glacier melt - Collaboration update

With team Basque we are in contact via e-mail. We wrote each other for the first time in March 2021. We try to help each other, but we don't have so many points to share. We now try to talk about a survey, that they could create.

We are in contact by WhatsApp with team Kerala. We started to coperate in April 2021. Then we did a video conference via "Google" on 22nd April, 2021. In the next days, we will have another video conference to talk about their interview with some professors of India the progress of the surveys of both teams. The surveys should then be posted here on "The horse".

Glacier melt - Interview with Swiss Climate Protection Association

This online interview was taken the 19th May 2021 with Marcel Hänggi, scientific Assistant

- How can we as human beings actually save our glaciers? What countermeasures do we have?

We have to stop global warming and to do this we have to stop the emission of greenhouse gases. However: glaciers react with a delay. If it didn't get any warmer from now on, the glacier melt would still continue for More...

Glacier melt - The glacier initiative

The Swiss Climate Protection Association (https://gletscher-initiative.ch/) has been founded the 25th August 2018 to make sure that Switzerland has an effective and fair climate policy. The aim is, to reduce greenhouse gases to zero until 2050 - like the Federal Counsil of Switzerland decided (https://www.bafu.admin.ch/bafu/de/home/themen/klima/fachinformationen/emissionsverminderung/verminderungsziele/ziel-2050.html).

On the 10th May 2019, it is being carried out "The glacier initiative" to build a citizens' movement on and below the public relations work for a view of the necessary information about the damage.

After having reached the necessary 100'000 votes, the initiative had been sent to the Federal Counsil on the 27th of November 2019.

On the 2 September 2020, The Federal Counsil of Switzerland submitted a direct counter-draft.

We expect the message of the Federal Counsil of Switzerland until the 31th August 2021.

A year or two later it should start the "Parlamental phase".

Last but not least, at the end of 2022 until 2024 we will have the voting about the glacier initiative.

In a next step, we try to connect our project with the work of the Association to exchange each other on the damage about glacier melt.
