Energy medicine (EM), whether human touch or device-based, is the use of known subtle energy fields to therapeutically assess and treat energetic imbalances, bringing the body''s systems back to homeostasis (balance). The future of EM depends on the ability of allopathic medicine to merge physics with biochemistry.

Iceland is a world leader in renewable energy. 100% of the electricity in Iceland''s electricity grid is produced from renewable resources. In terms of total energy supply, 85% of the total primary energy supply in Iceland is derived from domestically produced renewable energy sources. Geothermal energy provided about 65% of primary energy in 2016, the share of hydropower was 20%, and t…
Icelandic inventor Saethor Asgeirsson realized that the solution to this problem was not to avoid wind energy altogether, but to create a totally different type of wind turbine. He created an innovative design which centers on a turbine that is short and wide, rather than tall and thin. He was been working on this design since 2008, but in 2012 ...
The largest storage potential lies offshore, with long-term advantages for safe and secure CO 2 storage in the mid-ocean ridges. The theoretical mineral CO 2 storage capacity of the ocean ridges, using the Icelandic analogue, is orders of magnitude larger than the anticipated release of CO 2 caused by burning of all fossil fuel on Earth.
