Snippets from an article I just read via Leo @ Not All News is Bad:
“Researchers at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia have created a prototype of an alternative battery that runs on carbon and water.
“This is the first-ever rechargeable proton battery, an energy storage solution that runs off on cheap, environmentally friendly materials.”

About russtowne
I'm awed by the beauty of nature and the power of love and gratitude. Some of my favorite sensory experiences include waves crashing on rocky shores, waterways in ancient redwood and fern-filled forests, and rain. My wife and I have been married since 1979. We have 3 adult children and 5 grandchildren. I manage a wealth management firm that I founded in 2003. My Beloved is a Special Education teacher for Kindergartners and First Graders. I'm a published author of approximately 60 books in a variety of genres for grownups and children.
