Weird alternative power sources for cars.

When we refer to alternate fuels for cars, we, at most times, mean electricity, bio-fuel, or ethanol. But what happens when you add the word 'weird' before alternative fuel? It's a whole new story!
                                                   
Air
A car powered by air? Yes indeed: the MDI Air Pod proves that the notion is not just a load of hot air. In fact, it's a load of compressed air. MDI wants to build charging stations to compress air which will then power its three-wheeled bubble car at speeds up to 50mph, and up to 95 miles range.

An eco-friendly gym that converts sweat into electricity.

A Los Angeles consultant to health clubs and an advocate of greening them, says it appears the payback period for electricity-generating exercise equipment is about 15 years -- two to three times the machines' life span.
                Most users normally generate between 50 and 150 watts while working out which is enough energy, if stored to power a mobile phone for a week. The electricity generated is used to help power the lights, fans, stereo and flat screen TVs in the gym.
               The gym had generated 36 pc of its own electricity or 37,000 Kilowatt hours equal to 74,000 pounds of carbon emissions, 81,400 miles not driven and 15 acres of trees planted.

                          Its composition is closer to human milk than cow's milk is, so it is better for us. It also          contains antibodies, and these may help fight serious diseases like cancer, HIV/Aids.
