Human Innovation: Fog Out!

Foggy windshields, glasses, and bathroom mirrors – no more!

Foggy windshields cause auto accidents and force the expenditure of precious energy to run the defrost in your car. Foggy mirrors make you cut yourself when shaving and force you to run energy intensive fans. But these problems are about to become a thing of the past.

Scientists have just discovered a nano-coating that can be placed on glass surfaces to permanently stop fogging. And the process may also be useful for collecting rainwater in areas where fresh drinking water is as a premium.

This is one more example of how human innovation solves age-old problems, saves energy by doing more-with-less, and improves the quality of life for everyone.
