The joy of listening to a good song multiplies when we listen to it on a good device. There are many products for the same in the market, but what better than building your own speaker using natural resources!

Since it does not require electricity to amplify sound, a bamboo speaker is an eco-friendly product that you will have fun building and proud to show it off! But before you start, make sure you have an adult assisting and guiding you.

About 30,000 years ago, a squirrel chose a home for itself in Siberia, Russia. Today, the home is 30m below the surface in a layer of permafrost. The squirrel is long gone, but tiny roundworms, a type of nematode have survived in this home. They lasted for all these years, frozen and immobile. Russian scientists have now revived them and are making the worms the first multicellular organisms to have survived being frozen in the Arctic permafrost.

World Health Organization has issued a strong warning about the effects of air pollution on children. On October 29, 2018, it released a report called Air Pollution and Child Health.

Yamuna lowered her eyes and began opening up to Han. “Look where I live Han. I cannot breathe; move my arms or even my feet. Every day, the drains add more filth into the river and the people of the city for whom I travel from so far, do not even throw a glance at me. For them, I am a stinky black drain.”
