CNN —You may have seen kitesurfers in action, harnessing the power of the wind to pull them over the sea. After years of research, they are currently testing the kite on a cargo ship traveling between France and the US. The company has received €2.5 million ($2.7 million) in funding from the EU, and says it already has orders from Airbus and Japanese shipping company “K” Line. He adds that savings will become more pronounced as ships transition to green fuels, which are more expensive than fossil fuels and take up more space, because they are less energy dense. “It’s also a huge enabler for future green fuels,” argues Bernatets.

☆ Una dintre cele mai cunoscute şampanii din lume este numită în cinstea unui călugăr – Dom Pérignon. 10 lucruri interesante despre vin

De exemplu, una dintre cele mai renumite şampanii din lume este numită în cinstea unui călugăr – Dom Pérignon. El a fost (1638-1715) unul dintre avocaţii vinificaţiei organice, experimentând noi metode, iar practicile sale sunt utilizate până astăzi. Însă, cele mai vechi dovezi de viță de vie cultivate au fost găsite în Georgia, datând din 7000-5000 î.Hr. Arta vinului a fost mai târziu redefinită de egipteni, răspândită în zona mediterană de către greci şi popularizată în întreaga europă de romanii antici. Aşa că dacă vreţi să iniţiaţi o cură de slăbire, gândiţi-vă că un pahar de vin ar fi mai bun decât o budincă de ciocolată.
