Japan Eco Product Fair 2007

Japan Eco Product Fair is happening at the moment at Big Site in Tokyo. It is the biggest Eco Friendly Product and Technology exhibition in Japan. It is really big that I can't even visit all the exhibitions in one day. Below are some of the interesting development and technology I found yesterday.


A new Toyota Prius, Plug-in. Now you can charge the car with electric beside let it drink the gasolin.


Mitsubishi MiEV. An electric car. You can just charge it with normal electric supply.


Honda Fuel Cell Car

A concept car of Nissan called "PIVO 2". The wheel can move both vertical and horinzontal. It is very cute and attractive.

The interior of PIVO 2. The round shape thing beside the display panel is a robot. They might got the idea from Star Wars.

Measuring the CO2 emitted and absorp by the green house plant in the Eco Product Fair. The lady who took pucture just get in the green house and cause a spike in the CO2.



A play about energy saving from Tokyo Gas. They are very good actors.




A fuel cell Bike



Superconductive material showing the power. The magnet is spinning above the material, and without the air resistence, it will spin forever.

New electric bike from Yamaha.


SONY



In future, you can generate electric from your bowl of rice. One bowl equal to 64 batteries.





How about the "Glucose powered" MP3 player?








An Organic Display Television






Finger powered digital camera

{Paper} 081116! Recent intensification of tropical climate variability in the Indian Ocean

Recent intensification of tropical climate variability in the Indian Ocean Nature Geoscience Published online: 16 November 2008 doi:10.1038/ngeo357 Nerilie J. Abram 1 , 2 , Michael K. Gagan 1 , Julia E. Cole 3 , Wahyoe S. Hantoro 4 & Manfred Mudelsee 5 The interplay of the El Niño Southern Oscillation, Asian monsoon and Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) 1, 2, 3 drives climatic extremes in and around the Indian Ocean. Historical 4, 5 and proxy 6, 7, 8, 9 records reveal changes in the behaviour of the El Niño Southern Oscillation and the Asian monsoon over recent decades 10, 11, 12 . However, reliable instrumental records of the IOD cover only the past 50 years 1, 3 , and there is no consensus on long-term variability of the IOD or its possible response to greenhouse gas forcing 13 . Here we use a suite of coral oxygen-isotope records to reconstruct a basin-wide index of IOD behaviour since AD 1846. Our record reveals an increase in the frequency and strength of IOD events during the tw...
