Thank you for your help and participation!!!!🌟
Volunteering at @GOOD19_London was an amazing experience. Thank you @STBY and @reachnetworkHCD! It was a GOOD day to giggle about odd behaviours, eat a picnic near houseboats with the best community of (design) researchers and reflect on what I stand for to find my sparkle✨
Now on stage at #WMTC19, #CleanEnergyChallenge winner Job Veltman from Voltogo. "Did you know a boat motor emits 39x more than an average car motor?" Voltogo is bringing swappable electric motors to the city!

Minds are being blown. This Mexican researcher has discovered a way to turn cactus leaves into a material with similar properties to plastic – thoughts?
How to make plastic from cactus juice: > Cut + peel cactus leaves 🍃 > Squeeze into cactus juice 🌵 > Leave in fridge to set ⛄️ > Add water 💧 > Laminate 📃 Non-toxic. No crude oil. Biodegrades in a month. Edible. Simple. 🌈 bbc.co.uk/news/av/stories-48…
