008 - Inventions

Welcome!

Welcome to thirty-two eleven (”3211”). This newsletter will entail: 3 Reads, 2 Rabbit Holes, 1 Watch, and 1 Listen — 3/2/1/1. Detailing what I have been up to, on the internet.

introduction:

TIME Magazine's best inventions of 2022 released recently. Most of my interest this week was on the products selected and main themes throughout. 

3 reads:

1 - A random guy named Peter I found who is biking throughout South America to learn more about multimodal cities and towns, and cross incredible landscapes along the way.

2 -  In 1992, a French court ruled that Nasseri had entered the airport legally as a refugee and could not be expelled from it. He went on to live there for 18 years.

3 - Bamboo.

“It has the potential to be the most affordable structural material on the planet,” says David Sands, founder of Rizome, a company engineering bamboo products. “And the potential it has to cut our emissions is absolutely enormous.”

“We need to be growing bamboo at the scale of millions of hectares,” says Sands. “And it needs to happen quickly.”

2 rabbit holes:

My takeaway: The sustainability sector (ESG) is hot, and will continue to grow. The Food & Drink Category is almost all sustainable plant based products. Sustainable shrimp farms, beyond steak, fake bacon, mushroom "chicken" nuggets.

Some cool products found:

Cometeer - A new day has arrived on Earth for coffee

WalkingPad - X21 Double-Fold Treadmill 7.4 MPH

Viture - VR Glasses

Milo - Action Sports Communication
