Text of the page (random words):
it relies on tidal power this lighting solution would be geographically limited and could be used for piers sidewalks and roads that run alongside watercourses each light has its own water turbine equipped arm that dips into the water to generate power from the movement of the waves each arm floats and moves up and down with the position of the tide throughout the day this enables it to harvest energy to keep the lights on continuously 4 urban green energy s renewable street lamps could be the future source alternativeenergycompany unlike others on this list so far urban green energy s renewable street lamps are actually commercially available however uge has since stopped trading but their products can still be found on sites like alternativeenergycompany com these lights are self sufficient and have shown that streetlighting can be possible off the grid each light is dual powered and utilizes both solar and wind energy to store and power the lights at night these lights have a built in battery that is able to keep each light going for 3 5 days this is useful especially in the event that the sun doesn t shine and the wind doesn t blow as a further incentive to businesses who might consider using these on their properties each one comes with ample advertising space 5 energyme helps you save on gym membership source dido studio coroflot if you are a regular gym goer the idea of generating power from people exercising might have crossed your mind and that s exactly the premise behind the energyme street light the idea is simple get free access to gym equipment to help keep the local areas streetlights on citizens can walk run push pull and pedal their way to fitness and contribute to the benefit of their local community at the same time this solution not only helps keep fit but also reduces the environmental impact and costs in taxes for running streetlights win win 6 the windtulip is an interesting concept source mebrure oral yankodesign designed by mebrure oral the windtulip is another inspired reimagination of the traditional streetlight each light comes with its own vertical wind turbine at the top that charges an internal battery day and night whenever the wind blows when the sun goes down the light s energy efficient led lamps turn on to keep the streets safe each and every light is designed to look like a piece of urban art and it also beautifies the area in which they are installed 7 recycle your old batteries with the energy seed source sungwoo park sunhee kim yankodesign and last the energy seed is a fantastic idea to replace traditional streetlights the idea behind them is to help reuse spent batteries instead of just chucking them away as you are probably more than aware although used batteries might not have enough voltage to run your favorite gadget that doesn t mean all their stored energy is used up the energy seed concept proposes using those little bits of leftovers akin to a joule thief to power streetlights at night designed by sungwoo park and sunhee kim each light is planted in a small pot with round battery receptacles on the top users would deposit their old batteries in the device that would then harvest any and all remaining energy within them this is obviously just a concept at present and a lot of research would be required to make it a practical solution top image windtulip left

failures of the pharmaceutical industry catastrophic failures of the pharmaceutical industry by justin crockett toptenz 9 october 2019 we place our lives in others hands every time we see a doctor or have medicine prescribed for us it s an unspoken agreement we ve entered into and we re okay with it after all most of us don t know how to do medicine unless you re some kind of village shaman we re also seemingly okay with all the side effects that modern medicine creates you take a pill for depression and it can cause suicidal thoughts and depression you take a new medication for arthritis and it makes your jaw dislocate it s unfortunate but again are you going to create a new wonder drug in your bathtub probably not oddly enough some pharmaceutical companies have released products that not only seem like they were created in a bathtub but that were just unsafe to give to human beings here are some of the worst offenders 10 heparin recall heparin is a blood thinner that s commonly used in dialysis and to keep veins and arteries free of blood clots it s also partially made from pig intestines so there s also that one problem that arose during production of the usually very helpful drug was that there wasn t enough heparin in the united states so much of it was brought in from china too bad some of it was incredibly contaminated after quite a bit of investigation it was found that a chinese company sent tainted batches to the u s causing up to a hundred deaths what s particularly disturbing is that the contaminated items passed through several stringent quality checks scientists are trying to find a better way to make a kind of synthetic heparin as the world relies on china for up to 70 percent of the world s heparin 9 elixir antibiotic led to creation of fda 100 dead in 1937 president franklin roosevelt received a letter from a mother whose child had died after receiving a dubious medication called elixir sulfanilamide it was touted as one of the world s first true antibiotics the problem was that there was a poison contained within the mix called diethylene glycol almost immediately patients began experiencing everything ranging from nausea to kidney failure to even comas 107 patients died from consuming elixir sulfanilamide the man who created it took his own life two years later devastated from the death toll if one good thing came about because of the tragedy it was that a precursor to our modern day food and drug administration was established soon after 8 2012 meningitis outbreak from epidural steroids a massachusetts compounding facility that made a steroid called methylprednisolone acetate was at the center of a horrific series of events that took place in 2012 the framingham based pharmacy put out contaminated product that was used in steroid injections and at first owned up to knowing about it putting out a recall on their own in september that year that s when the extent of their culpability became known they created a 100 million fund the following year to pay victims for their tainted product 20 states around the u s reported contaminated steroids and over 750 cases of meningitis were reported directly tied to the drug 64 people died from the outbreak of the disease the owners of the pharmacy were among 14 people arrested and some were even charged with second degree murder this was after the company filed for

agency to distribute cough syrup to the country s poor population but at least 20 000 were passed out to folks without being tested and a simple mistake of not reading an ingredient could have avoided disaster during mixing of the cough syrup an ingredient called diethylene glycol was added when the drug makers thought they were using a simple sugar substitute what they were actually mixing in was a component of antifreeze which most doctors say is terrible for a cough and for staying alive anywhere between 60 and 300 people died because the makers of the cough syrup mistakenly ordered a wrongly labeled bottle and again all of this could have been avoided if even rudimentary testing had been done on the medication in the first place 6 the bextra settlement bextra was an anti inflammatory drug put on the market by pfizer the painkiller didn t last long though as people quickly began experiencing heart problems and there were even reports of a fatal skin condition called stevens johnson syndrome in 2005 the fda made the drug maker remove bextra from stores but that wasn t the end of the matter at all pfizer ended up paying out one of the largest settlements in history for the bextra fiasco 4 85 billion for patient injury claims as well as having to shell out more for fraudulent marketing and other class action cases they paid out the mammoth settlement without ever having to admit any wrongdoing so there s that 5 des estrogen drug a synthetic type of estrogen that was sold to women in the mid 1900s up to 10 million females took it during their pregnancies in the belief that it would help curb miscarriages diethylstilbestrol was touted as a miracle drug to help women carry their babies to term but instead the estrogen invaded everything including the blood of the fetuses themselves upon birth many of these children would have abnormalities in their reproductive organs many would turn out to be infertile and would end up way more likely to develop various forms of cancer above all the very thing des was created for to decrease miscarriages instead increased chances of miscarrying armed with this knowledge in 1958 the fda let the drug be used for another 12 years they would ban its other use fattening chickens before they would take it off the market from human use 4 defective breast implants in france linked to cancer poly implant prosthesis designed and manufactured breast implants out of their france facility and in fact was one of the world s leaders in such production it was when they started cutting corners in their work that the extent of their laziness for an entire decade was discovered 30 000 women in france and surrounding countries were found to have received defective implants during that time instead of medical grade fillers inside the breast implants the company had been using industrial silicone which saved them millions of dollars annually that same silicone is normally used for computer parts and electronics their savings also led to ruptured casings which may be causing cancer 3 bayer hiv crisis hemophilia is a condition where a person s blood does not clot normally leading even a tiny injury to turn into a bloodbath so a medication that helps prevent that would be a godsend when pharmaceutical company bayer try their aspirin developed a drug for that purpose in the early 1980s it looked like it could have been a game changer unfortunately in the early 80s there was also a mystery illness known as hiv spreading around bayer found out that the drug had at some point been contaminated with the hiv virus so in 1984 they began heat treating the medication to kill it thing is they still had a bunch of tainted medication just laying around instead of doing the super humane thing and destroying it with fire they opted to sell the rest off to poor countries in latin america and asia at least a hundred hemophiliacs in asian countries wound up with full blown aids and thousands more around the world contracted the hiv virus from the contaminated product bayer and others paid out around 600 million for their troubles but swear they re ethical and humane 2 fen phen there was a diet pill craze that took place in the 80s and 90s which the fda kind of silently ignored the makers of the pills would have to passively state that their products didn t have the fda seal of approval and everyone allowed the ruse to continue fen phen was a little different it promised to end obesity doctors went absolutely nuts butts for the stuff cranking out 18 millions prescriptions for the drug in 1996 the drug fen phen simultaneously decreased appetite and made the body burn calories at a faster rate the trade off we found out was that people s heart valves became defective which is way better than being fat obviously the makers of the drug american home products had to cough up 3 75 billion dollars 175 00 claims in all were filed against ahp thought who knows how many actually got paid and this wasn t even the company s first time in hot water with legal settlements and class action suits they had to pony up 54 million the same year as the fen phen settlement because of defective birth control devices they sold that had unknown side effects 1 thalidomide drug in 1950s and 60s you may have heard the buzz word thalidomide bandied about when you ve come across your crazy anti vax aunt engaged in a facebook discussion one key theory in the anti vaccine movement is that something in the vaccines given to babies causes them to grow up with autism thalidomide is often pointed to as one of those ingredients it s all also incredibly reckless and untrue and usually based on the results of one discredited gastroenterologist thalidomide itself was actually used in the 1950s and 60s as a cure for morning sickness in pregnant women whether it worked or not isn t nearly as important as the fact that it stunted blood vessel development at a key stage for the fetus five to nine weeks into the pregnancy is usually when the expectant mothers would take thalidomide and in tens of thousands of cases it resulted in astonishing birth defects in the brain and limbs of their born babies it wasn t until 1961 when thalidomide was finally discontinued yet the damage had already clearly been done if only there was a vaccine to keep drug companies from putting out harmful product to human
