On the ground, it's powered electrically.

Insulating a house is like wrapping a present.

These organisms, how are they insulating against their own electric charge?

But what's really amazing is that the cells, when we electrically stimulate them,

And amazingly, this process can be repeated many times without recharging the insulating plate.

The Installation Procedure for mounting the HlL lights and connecting them electrically is also available online

So actually, it's filled with 100 billion neurons just zizzing away, electrically transmitting information, zizzing, zizzing.

And mica is a mineral which is a very good insulator and very good at insulating electricity.

like buying energy efficient appliances, putting in efficient lights, turning the lights off occasionally, insulating our homes?

If we can install these molecules in neurons somehow, then these neurons would become electrically drivable with light.

You'd motor, electrically, to a vertiport, which may be a few blocks, maybe even a few miles away.

We actually pushed two electrodes in, went back to the lab, and linked our nervous systems together electrically.

Like our metal straightened when it was heated, the metals holding the panels will move when electrically heated.

And a huge part in what allows them to travel efficiently are these insulating cells around the axon.

Then the plate is pulled away, using an insulating handle, and an excess charge would remain trapped in the plate.

In the case of multiple sclerosis, the immune system attacks the insulating layers around the nerves in the brain and in the spinal chord.

And if you see those metal bits there those are huge magnets that bend electrically charged particles, so it can measure how fast they're traveling.

They had insulating layers of fat covering their bodies to give them better protection from the cold and they even had bigger brains that we have.

Impatient and finally behind the wheel, these free protons and electrons move too fast to be contained by the Sun's gravity and group together as plasma, an electrically charged gas.

I believe that the only way that it is possible for us to construct genuinely sustainable homes and cities is by connecting them to nature, not insulating them from it.

And here, the first thing you can see is that this building, the roof is a very warm kind of overcoat blanket, a kind of insulating garden, which is also about the celebration of public space.

And by using mycelium as a glue, you can mold things just like you do in the plastic industry, and you can create materials with many different properties, materials that are insulating, fire resistant, moisture resistant, vapor resistant materials that can absorb impacts, that can absorb acoustical impacts.

Plants and animals are like, we're cool, we've got all the carbon we need, and the oceans are like, yea, we're good on carbon too, and it can't just go back into the rock, so it hangs around the atmosphere as a greenhouse gas, insulating our planet and changing the climate.
