MIT chemists Daniel Nocera and Matthew Kanan have discovered a way to to convert sunlight into chemical fuel by using Cobalt to split water into oxygen and hydrogen. According to Dr. Nocera, water combined with light will split the hydrogen and oxygen in a water molecule, then recombining hydrogen and oxygen will produce energy and water. This means those pollution-free fuel cell vehicles already in the market will be able to acquire their fuel using a sustainable energy source instead of…

Eric (Planning 2010) is a Transit Planner with the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC). His job is to help maximize mobility with the limited resources available. With new streetcars, subway trains and busses hitting the streets in 2014, hear why it's an exciting time to be a part of transit in Toronto.
Special thanks to the TTC for inviting us in to the historic Harvey Shops, located in the Hillcrest complex. While Eric's day to day work doesn't bring him to the unique facility, we wanted to…
