Generating Energy: Matrix Style

Generating energy from humans used to be science fiction. It has since become science fact. Sweden is heating an office building from the train station below it. The BTUs generated by commuters passing through heats water, which will transform into 15% of an office building's heating energy.

Unless you have some sort of superpower, the only way humans naturally produce energy is throught bodyheat. To be able to harness this energy is brilliant. Next step is to learn how to harness the power of hurricanes and lightning.

Besides generating energy through body heat I've read that they are researching a device which is attached to your knee and generates energy when you walk or run -- enough to charge your cell phone! Great blog keep it up Yoda
