Description
Fancy biting into a beetle burger? Or heating your home with poo? How about using plants to light your bedroom?
We all know that climate change is having a huge impact on our planet – but what we don't all know are some of the genius – but sometimes strange – ways scientists are working to find practical and imaginative answers to this and other Earth-altering problems.
From the breakfast table to the bathtub, on a day at school or in the park or at the farm, see how some of these bizarre and brainy inventions could fit into everyday life.
Previously published as Beetles for Breakfast.
