Ricardo Azevedo rides his Honda NX 200 motorbike, which he converted to be powered by water, in Salto, northwest of Sao Paulo, Brazil, August 6, 2015. The Sao Paulo civil servant built the motorbike which can cover up to 500 kilometres (311 miles) fueled by just one liter of water. Dubbed "Moto Power H2O", the bike is powered by a process of electrolysis by which the water molecule is broken down into its constituent elements. (Photo by Nacho Doce/Reuters)

TomTato Plant Grows Both Tomatoes And Potatoes

Nowadays, crossbreeding and gene splicing are creating things that would never have occurred in nature. Thanks to gene splicing, modern man can witness mice that glow in the dark, goats that produce milk which is then used to make bulletproof vests, and even cows that produce milk that is almost identical to human breast milk. One of the latest feats of human genius is the creation of Thompson and Morgan. By combining the genes of tomatoes and potatoes they were able to create a “TomTato”, which is essentially a plant that grows tomatoes and potatoes at the same time. With creations such as this, the world’s hunger problem may be resolved in a few decades.

A crane loads logs at the Novoyeniseisk wood processing plant, with the air temperature at about minus 20 degrees Celsius (minus 4 degrees Fahrenheit), in the town of Lesosibirsk in Krasnoyarsk Region, Siberia, Russia, February 16, 2016. The plant exports timber to Europe, Northern Africa and Asia. The Taiga, also known as the boreal forest, on the coast of the Angara River and Yenisei River is one of the main areas for the industrial cutting of wood thanks to the high quality of the Angara pine.
