Their Goal: Running water in every home

-"In much of the developing world, the urban poor face the daily challenge of procuring water. Many cannot pay monthly bills and high upfront connection costs due to their irregular incomes."
To date, there has been no effective solution to provide safe, convenient, reliable and affordable water access to low-income homes.
City Taps has come up with a solution:
They seek to solve the  problem of bringing piped water to homes by making water utility services affordable for the urban poor. Their technology pioneers seamless integration between connected objects; our pay-as-you-go water meters and mobile money networks.
This helps:
- the poor to overcome payment barriers
-water utilities to grow their network infrastructure faster

Hurricanes, also known as cyclones, are giant, powerful and dangerous storms that form in summer and fall. Warm moist air raises from hot spots and the storm gathers speed throughout time as it moves along the ocean. It rotates around the eye. The eye is the center of the hurricane and is the calmest part of it.

SharkLab Malta is an organization who's objective is to protect sharks, rays and skates. They do this by research and public education around the Maltese islands. Their primary goal is to protect sharks. These predators are important parts of the marine ecosystem but they are becoming  increasingly rare and face extinction. SharkLab Malta do various research activities such as snorkel and dive searches which allows them to observe local species and examine more closely the habitat where they continue to hold on. 

 

SharkLab Malta has been doing research on the development  of several egg-laying shark species that live in the Maltese waters.  The research includes hatching sharks from egg cases recovered from the fish market. They release the hatched sharks back into the Mediterranean to help numbers of these species to increase. This is very important research as many species of sharks are disappearing form the waters.

SharkLab is expanding and they are looking for new members who want to make a difference!
