|
 What happens when you plug your Prius in? Are you ultimately drawing power from coal, nuclear, wind, biomass? It depends on where you live. Most of us know that America generates its electricity from a multitude of sources, as shown in this graphic: However, that pie chart doesn't accurately represent the breakdown in any single state (although Arkansas comes close), because state by state, electricity is generated from a cocktail of up to nine different sources.

To combat the impact of discarded plastic bags on the environment, an Indonesian company called Avani has created a single-use bag you'd swear was plastic—but which is in fact made of Cassava (Yucca), an edible root. These Bio-Cassava Bags contain zero actual plastic and are made from Cassava starch using a proprietary process. Being 100% bio-based, the bags will break down in a matter of months ...

| St. Joseph boys soccer has high hopes after slow start
|
 The adjustment to losing an accomplished group of seniors was never going to be easy, especially coming off a state final berth. In that light, a slow start for the St. Joseph boys soccer team — which lost six of its first nine matches — made sense. But the tide is beginning to turn for the defending...
