Introduction

Many nowadays people very concern about this world, pollution, and the development. They want their country to be developed, but they also does not want their country to polluted. Many countries in this world planning and exercised many efforts to maintained their environment quality. Eco-villages is the one of the effort.

Comparison by Sumaidah

Eco villages are existed in many countries such at Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. However, this eco-village is truly like the real village, this is differ from the eco-village was planned for future. The future eco village is most likely to be town. But it is concern about the environment. This eco-village is combination between the development of the country and the environment concern.

Introduction by Sumaidah

Many people trying to build new technology for future.  Yuriy Dmitriev is one of the intelligent inventors. He is inventing refrigerator for future. This refrigerator is a very unique compared to others that already exist.  This refrigerator called “humble refrigerator” because it is do not need shelves and doors and cooling. This refrigerator high about 2m, the width is about 70cm and the length is about 230mm.  It is very practical for nowadays world that need space saver.  The refrigerator is using biopolymer gel, “or more specifically a "non-sticky, odourless gel."  You simply plunge whatever you want to keep fresh into the mass of your Bio Robot fridge and it'll stay where you left it until you comeback. 

Comparison by Sumaidah

  The existed refrigerator is with shelves, doors and cooling.  This future refrigerator only using biopolymer gel for keeping food and it is more slim than the existence refrigerator. Today’s fridge has specific place for every item, but this future fridge allow us to put our goods as we want-up side/ down it’s up to us.

Introduction


2020’s, many people imagine that, this air will full with flying cars. This is more likely to be true, since the there are many pioneering men began chasing the dream of a flying car. They trying very hard to make the dreams come true. This is started since 1903.
The Flow Designed of Flying Cars:
Year
Pioneers
 Cars
Description
1917
Glenn Curtiss
Curtiss
Autoplane
The aluminium Autoplane                             sported three wings that spanned 40 feet (12.2 meters).
1937
Waldo Waterman
Arrowbile
The three-wheeled car was powered by a typical 100-horsepower Studebaker engine.
1946
Robert Fulton
Airphibian
The first flying car to be certified by the Civil Aeronautics Administration.
1947
Consolidated-Vultee
ConvAirCar
The designed start at 1940 and it is debut at 1947.

-
Avrocar
Was designed for military use.
1970
 Moulton Taylor
Aerocar
Inspired by Robert Fulton and his car “Airphibian”

Cars: Now & Future

Traffic jams are normal situation in the town. This is due to a lot of cars I the road.  The flying cars are the one of the solution. Flying cars is not produced for commercial yet, since it is under development. By driving flying cars, it is will decrease number of cars in the road and able to less traffic jams. However, this flying car is build only for one or two passenger compared to existence cars that has more seats.  The flying cars might be more expensive than the normal cars since it is using aeroplane engine and many mores. 

Submerged Oceanic Tunnel And SuperSonic Train(4000mph)

Many people thinks to have lunch in Manhattan and still get to London in time is a sweet dream. But, the project of 4000mph underwater train can makes the dream comes true.

One proposed route for the transatlantic maglev train passes through northeastern Canada before barreling toward the British Isles and continental Europe, briefly kissing terra firma on Greenland and Iceland. Because above ground sections would be cheaper to build than their underwater counterparts, such a route would be more economical than a direct shot through the Atlantic.

The Atlantic Tunnel is the longest tunnel in the world at 3261 miles long. Only two miles of the tunnel is not beneath sea level.
The Atlantic Tunnel consists of five tunnels. Four of them are directional tunnels for the purpose of ATTS passenger trains, while a smaller central tunnel is for maintenance purposes. At its deepest point, the tunnel lies beneath the Mid-Atlantic Ridge at a depth of 3,202 metres. It has taken 42 years to complete the tunneling work, but a further 23 years to get the tunnel into its current state. 

The ATTS (Atlantic Tunnel Train Shuttle) is the fastest train in the world. Its fastest recorded speed is 631 mph. However, the ATTS will travel at a much slower speed of 400mph on a daily basis. The ATTS does not generate or release any emissions into the environment making it the greenest form of transport ever. There are no windows on the ATTS except for the pilot's cockpit. The ATTS's surface temperature rises by 16 degrees centigrade due to air friction when at full speed. The tunneling equipment used to excavate the tunnel was taller than three double-decker buses and it could bore through several miles of rock per day, depending on the compound.The ATTS can carry 726 passengers and over 100 vehicles. The Atlantic Tunnel runs underneath the entire width of the Republic of Ireland.

What: Submerged OCEANIC tunnel and supersonic train
WHERE: New York – London
Cost: $88 billion – $175 billion
Crux: Neutrally buoyant vacuum tunnel submerged 150 to 300 feet beneath the Atlantic’s surface and anchored to the seafloor, through which zips a magnetically levitated train at up to 4,000 mph.
