Approximately one year after leading roof window manufacturer VELUX Group joined forces with social business Little Sun and NGO Plan International, launching a design competition to bring clean, sustainable light to Africa, the first solar lamps have now arrived on African soil.
The VELUX Natural Light International Design Competition received 172 proposals from 65 countries. A high-level jury of experts in the fields of architecture, art and design subsequently selected the winning design, by Mariana Arando and Luca Fondello of the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Their solar lamp design was inspired by the way light can bring people together.
The VELUX Group has so far produced and donated 14,500 of the solar-powered lamps, and 150 local sales agents are now being trained in how to sell the lamps in off-grid communities in Senegal, Zimbabwe and Zambia. The training combines workshops, roleplay, demonstrations, and group work.

Desde el momento en que nacen, cada uno de los animales de nuestro planeta comienza la misma travesía con un objetivo final: sobrevivir y asegurar la descendencia. Al igual que los humanos, los animales tienen que enfrentar difíciles obstáculos en cada etapa de sus vidas, ya sea el medioambiente, sus enemigos o hasta la propia familia. Esta cautivadora y visualmente espectacular serie muestra el comportamiento de varias especies y los desafíos a los que se enfrentan. SOBREVIVIR (#Sobrevivir) se estrena en Discovery en Español el 18 de octubre a las 8PM E/ 5PM P, y se transmitirá los domingos a esa misma hora.
Narrada por el actor mexicano Enrique Rocha, la serie captura las historias individuales de varios animales, desde su perspectiva y en su hábitat natural, mostrando en cámara cómo dan sus primeros pasos, aprenden a adaptarse a la vida sin sus padres, se refugian de sus enemigos, ganan una posición de poder en su mundo, encuentran pareja y procrean una nueva generación.
“No había tenido la fortuna de narrar una serie y ha sido una gran experiencia poder contar esta increíble historia sobre la vida con la visión y credibilidad de Discovery en Español. ‘Sobrevivir’ le da acceso exclusivo a los televidentes y les ofrece ser testigos del maravilloso y muchas veces difícil ciclo de la vida”, comentó Enrique Rocha.

Rough, dry skin may seem like a constant battle for some, especially as cold weather creeps in. When it comes to defeating dryness, leading New York Cosmetic Dermatologist, Dr. Doris Day, recommends following three cardinal rules: cleanse, exfoliate and moisturize. Using a mild cleanser helps rid skin of daily dirt buildup without stripping it of its essential oils. Once skin is clean and dry, applying a moisturizer with 12% lactic acid, like AmLactin® Moisturizing Body Lotion, aids in skin’s natural renewal process, exfoliating dead skin cells while simultaneously locking in moisture to the new cells underneath.

The world's largest plant to turn natural gas into cleaner-burning fuels and lubricants took a major step closer to production today when gas began flowing from a giant offshore field.
Pearl GTL will process around 3 billion barrels of oil equivalent over its lifetime from the world's largest single gas field, the North Field in the Arabian Gulf. The field stretches from Qatar’s coast and contains more than 900 trillion cubic feet of gas, equivalent to 150 billion barrels of oil, or over 10% of worldwide gas resources.*

Shell today announced that it will go ahead with the first carbon capture and storage (CCS) project for an oil sands operation in Canada. The Quest project will be built on behalf of the Athabasca Oil Sands Project joint venture owners (Shell, Chevron and Marathon Oil) and with support from the Governments of Canada and Alberta.
CCS is critical to meeting the huge projected increase in global energy demand while reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, explained Peter Voser, Chief Executive Officer of Royal Dutch Shell plc. “If you want to achieve climate change goals, CCS has to be part of the solution. We are helping to advance CCS technology on a number of fronts around the world, but Quest will be our flagship project.”
