Artificial FAIRY – Flying Aero-robots based on Light Responsive Materials Assembly

The development of stimuli-responsive polymers has brought about a wealth of material-related opportunities for next-generation small-scale, wirelessly controlled soft-bodied robots. For some time now, engineers have known how to use these materials to make small robots that can walk, swim and jump. So far, no one has been able to make them fly. Researchers of Read more about Artificial FAIRY – Flying Aero-robots based on Light Responsive Materials Assembly[…]

New legislation on sustainable investments

Parliament has adopted new legislation on sustainable investments. It lays down six environmental objectives and allows economic activity to be labelled as environmentally sustainable if it contributes to at least one of the objectives without significantly harming any of the others. The objectives are: climate change mitigation and adaptation; sustainable use and protection of water and Read more about New legislation on sustainable investments[…]
