The Most Beautiful Bridge in the World

Google Images of the Millau Bridge

I know this isn't "hot off the press news," but this is the most beautiful bridge in the world and ties in well with the previous post on amazing architecture. Those people building a skyscraper down in the Middle East should draw inspiration from the French and know that those amazingly artful ideas on paper and in computers can in fact turn out to be incomprehensibly beautiful
pieces of our modern world.

We can do anything. We will.

New Skyscaper Uses Zero Total Emissions

Zero Emission Building

The first thing one must do when speaking about an idea like this is first throw out that the building is still in the planning stages. Computer simulations have shown that the ideas work. But..let us leave that now.

The building has a wind turbine built on the top. It's air movement system allows hot air to be sucked out of the top and cold air to be pulled down inside. Custom made window coverings to shield from the HOT desert sun. A floating island of solar panels to power the building. Hydrogen storage tanks to allow for energy storage. Internal mirror system which pumps real sunlight throughout the building. And I am sure a whole host of other ideas.

These concepts that are being tested all over the world by ultra wealthy countries will slowly filter down to you and I. In the near future you will create your own energy. Your home will have some of these tools. Your car will run on hydrogen (or electricity) created by you on your land. You will sell power to those companies and individuals who have chosen not to partake in the revolution.

I am happy this Sunday morning. :-)
