6、cola was busy saving money for basic purchases.To try to get his peers(同龄人) to do the same,the boy from Peru came up with the idea of an eco-bank,the Bartselana Student Bank,which allows kids of all ages to become financially independent while also helping the environment.Set up in 2012,the bank is
7、the worlds first bank for kids.To become a member,a kid has to bring in at least 5 kilograms of solid waste and set a savings goal.Once accepted,all bank “partners” are required to deposit at least one additional kilogram of recyclablesonamonthlybasis and observe other requirements,such as attending
8、 financial education and environmental management workshops.The waste accumulated is sold to local recycling companies,who,thanks to Joses efforts,pay a higher-than-market rate for everything brought in by the bank members.The money received is placed in the personal account where they collect until
9、 the savings goal is reached.The account holder can then withdrawthemoney,or choose to leave it and continue to grow for a bigger target.“At the beginning,my teachers thought I was crazy or that a child could not undertake this type of project,” Jose recalls.“They do not understand that we are not t
10、he future of the country but its present.Luckily,I had the support of the school headmaster and an assistant in my class.”The boys efforts paid off,and by 2013,the bank had over 200 members,who brought in one ton of recyclable waste.Today,the eco-bank,which now has the support of several local insti

18、lmologists,told BusinessInsider.Blue light exposure is nothing new.In fact,the sun is the largest source of blue light.Moreover,blue light is also present in LED light.But if blue light isnt harmful,then why are we constantly rubbing our eyes when were looking at our screens?The answer is eyestrain(
19、眼疲劳):more than 60 percent of people experience eye problems associated with digital eyestrain.And blue light,it seems,isnt the cause.Instead,our eyes are so strained because most of us blink less when we stare at our digital devices.So if eyestrain is the real issue,blue light-blocking glasses are p

24、lication.Malinkiewicz says perovskite has become a favorite among solar panel researchers.Because it can be printed,and everyone can use it on every surface.Malinkiewicz developed a way to print perovskite panels like an inkjet printer(喷墨打印机).She co-founded a company to produce them,called Soleil Te
