Four foods that become toxic when stored in the refrigerator

Although the refrigerator keeps food fresh, some foods should not be stored in the refrigerator because they can become toxic. Doctor Dimple Yangda, who is a specialist in gut health, stated on Instagram that these foods are garlic, onion, ginger and rice and revealed the reasons why this is so. Garlic Garlic can become soft if stored in the refrigerator. "Never store garlic in the refrigerator because it starts to mold very quickly, and mold on garlic is actually linked to cancer," Yangda said, advising to store garlic in a dry, dark place. "Garlic has a low acidity, which makes it prone to the deposition of the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, which is one of the culprits of botulism," she warned. Onion Onion is a crop that is resistant to low temperatures. The expert explains: "When you put onions in the fridge, the starch starts to turn into sugar and mold starts to form." Many people make this mistake. Cut the head of the onion, use half...

Wood energy

Wood is considered humankind’s very first source of energy. Today it is still the most important single source of renewable energy providing about 6 percent of the global total primary energy supply.

More than two billion people depend on wood energy for cooking and/or heating, particularly in households in developing countries. It represents the only domestically available and affordable source of energy. Private households’ cooking and heating with woodfuels represents one third of the global renewable energy consumption, making wood the most decentralized energy in the world.


Woodfuels arise from multiple sources including forests, other wooded land and trees outside forests, co-products from wood processing, post-consumer recovered wood and processed wood-based fuels. Wood energy is also an important emergency backup fuel. Societies at any socio-economic level will switch easily back to wood energy when encountering economic difficulties, natural disasters, conflict situations or fossil energy supply shortages.

Wood fuels are a very important forest product. Global production of fuelwood exceeds the production of industrial roundwood in terms of volume. Fuelwood and charcoal production is often the predominant use of woody biomass in developing countries and economies in transition.

Today wood energy has entered into a new phase of high importance and visibility with climate change and energy security concerns.

Renewable and ecological
THE WOOD, HEATING ENERGY

Heritage of nature, ecosystem of the animal and vegetable species, the forest covers, in France, almost one third of the national territory. Each extraction of trees is compensated with a new plantation. Exploitation and consumption included, the carbon footprint of wood is neutral because of the fact that on one hand there are lots of local production, allowing to minimise the transport and so to balance the impact on the environment, and on the other hand the carbon gas emissions during the combustion in a wood stove, are equal to those produced during the state of decomposition of the wood into the forest. Then those carbon gas emissions are assimilated with the photosynthesis phenomenon by trees, for their needs during their growth.

So, to reduce heat losses and to increase efficiency, the single wood heating appliances, stoves, fireboxes and inserts, have faced, since the 2000’s, very important evolutions. They are all equipped with double combustion, which allows to burn again the smokes and gases produced by the first combustion of the wood, and reduce the greenhouse gas emissions.

Trojan apps that take photos of users without permission, if you have them, delete them

  ESET antivirus experts have released a new list of Android messaging apps that track users and steal their information. These are apps from the Google Play Store and almost all of them look like regular messaging apps. However, behind the scenes they run a remote device access Trojan known as "VajraSpy" and are part of the "Patchwork APT" campaign, with the primary goal of spying on downloaders. These apps can steal your contacts, files, call history and messages, and some can even access your WhatsApp or Signal conversations, record phone calls or see what notifications you receive, the website PhoneArena" published post. The worst that has been discovered is that they can take pictures of users and record sound in the environment. They are primarily used in Pakistan and India, but it is possible to find them in other areas as well. If you accidentally came across them, skip them, and if you downloaded them, delete them. These are the Google Play Store apps ...

Advantages and disadvantages of solar power energy

The technology that is utilized to collect and convert solar energy is known as solar energy. In 2011, less than 0.1 percent of the world's energy consumption was met by the technology. Many people are familiar with 'photovoltaic cells,' often known as solar panels, which are used in items like spacecraft, roofs, and handheld calculators. Semiconductor materials, similar to those used in computer chips, are used to make the cells. Electrons are dislodged from their atoms when sunlight strikes the cells. The cell produces electricity when the electrons move through it. Solar-thermal power plants use a variety of methods to concentrate the sun's energy as a heat source on a much bigger scale. The heat is then utilized to boil water, which powers a steam turbine to produce electricity in a manner similar to that of coal and nuclear power plants and serve thousands of people with electricity. In one method, sunlight is focused on an oil pipe that passes through the center o...

Environmental and efficiency aspects of heating methods

The effectiveness of any framework relies upon the meaning of the limits of the framework. For an electrical energy client the productivity of electric space warming is 100 percent since all bought energy is changed over completely to warm. Be that as it may, in the event that a power plant providing power is incorporated, the general proficiency drops radically. For instance, a petroleum derivative power station just conveys 3-5 units of electrical energy for each 10 units of fuel energy delivered. Despite the fact that the electric radiator is 100 percent proficient, how much fuel expected to deliver the intensity is more than if the fuel were singed in a heater or kettle at the structure being warmed. On the off chance that a similar fuel could be utilized for space warming by a buyer, it would be more productive in general to consume the fuel toward the end client's structure. Then again, supplanting electric warming with petroleum derivative consuming radiators, isn't requ...
