Humans make mosquito repellent, mosquito stun devices, up to anti-mosquito cream to withstand the action of blood-sucking insects and pests bed. In the water there was also an attack of blood-sucking fish often called "mosquito sea". However, certain types of fish have different ways to defend itself from the "mosquito sea", by secreting mucus or mucus.
Fish that have a way of adaptation is a parrot fish (Chlorurus sordidus). Mucus production of this fish is removed from the mouth and protect the entire body. This mucus is used to protect themselves from attacks Gnothii isopods, a sort of shrimp or blood suckers, previously called "mosquito sea" it. This is a type of fish parasites.

The largest lakes on Earth to warm over the last 25 years. This Aviation and Space Agency announced the United States or NASA, on Tuesday (23/11/2010). Heating that occurs in these lakes are known after the researcher Philipp Schneider and Simon Hook of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, observe the 167 lakes on Earth using satellite data.
Not only that human skin can sunburn. Whale skin can also experience it.
Scientists from the Zoological Society of London recently discovered this fact after doing research on several types of whales found in the Gulf of California. They took samples, collect high-resolution photographs, and examine the microscopic structure of sperm whales, gray whales fin and blue whales.
The results showed, nearly every sample of whale skin have skin cells that sunburn, even in the deepest layer of skin. It shows that the damage is quite severe. The researchers suspected, it burns on whales associated with damage to ozone layer that occurred.

Conservation experts from the UK found a rare bat in the jungle of Sumatra. Bats found in known as the barong Ridley (Hipposideros ridleyi), a species classified as threatened with extinction in the list of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
Species of bats were found in forest fragments that extent only 300 hectares. Fragment is surrounded by oil palm plantations, which opened in the forest area and expanded so that penetrated an important habitat for the survival of endangered animals.

Ecospec Global Technology, a research and technology firms based in Singapore succeeded in developing a breakthrough system that can efficiently remove sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxide (NO2) from the disposal of large ships, power plants, factories and other industrial processing as well reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) in large numbers simultaneously. This technology is tracing the report Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics about rising carbon emissions in Indonesia, which has a big hand in climate change and air pollution.
"This is the world's first technology that uses water to overcome and break down SO2, NO2, and CO2 at the same time," said Chow Hwee Hong, Founder and Managing Director CSNOx Ecospec when introducing technology, on Tuesday (28/09/2010). CSNOx different from other similar products because it can significantly reduce carbon emissions at the same time the third in a work process by using water as medium.

Dream of reviving the dinosaurs and ancient animals like the sequel to Jurassic Park one more step closer to reality. The scientists succeeded in mapping the most ancient mammoth's genetic code, the elder brother of elephants that have thick body hair.
List of the genetic code is translated from cell extracts 20 clumps of hair taken from mummified mammoths mammoths found in permafrost in Siberia, Russia. Mamoth which can grow to more than 5 feet tall lived about 10,000 years ago.

The U.S. energy company in the midst of developing the Solar Power Plant (hydro power plant) that will be placed on satellites orbiting the Earth. Mode will be effective because the use of sun rays could not have done 24 hours depending on weather and changes in day and night.
Design of satellite-based power plants are currently being designed Solaren Corp. The satellite will carry a series of solar cells which stretches for several kilometers and located at an altitude of 40.000 kilometers. Solar cells will gather next summer sun that is converted into radio waves. Radio waves are then transmitted to receiving stations on Earth. At these stations, radio waves again this time converted into electrical energy that will be poured into the electricity network.
