Im happy I now registered

Wearable for cows that 'neutralises' methane in their breath and a device that captures particles shed by car tyres have been named among the winners of The Prince of Wales' inaugural Terra Carta Design Lab.
The initiative invites some of the world's most talented design students and alumni to design high-impact, low-cost solutions for Nature, People and Planet.
Out of 125 original submissions, four teams of Royal College of Art students and alumni based in London have been chosen as the winners.
These also include aerodynamic nutrient and seed pods made from food waste, that claims to accelerate regeneration up to 10 times, and the first 100 per cent recyclable and chemical-free outdoor performance textile.
Later today, His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales and British product designer Sir Jony Ive will visit the Royal College of Art for the opening of an exhibition showcasing the projects and meet the four winners.

London-based agricultural service Zelp has designed a wearable device for cattle (pictured) to neutralise methane emissions in real time






A firm called the Tyre Collective is developing a patent-pending device that captures tyre wear at the wheel before it can be propelled into the surrounding environment

Here's a closer look at the four winners and their creations, which have all been described as 'solutions to the environmental crisis'.  
Zelp 
Zelp describes itself as an agricultural service that wants to reduce harmful gas emissions while improving animal welfare. 
Cows and other farm animals release huge amounts of methane - a powerful greenhouse gas - into the atmosphere through their burps and farts. 
So Zelp staff have built a device that fits 'comfortably' around a cow's head without restricting their movement or feeding. 
As the cattle exhales, methane travels through a catalyst where it's oxidized, then released into the air as CO2 and water vapour.
'The technology precisely tracks methane reduction and key data for farmers, like welfare, efficiency, and fertility metrics,' the firm says on its website.

Zelp's wearable collects emissions data in real-time and presents data on 'intuitive dashboards' on the accompanying ZELP app (pictured) 

The Tyre Collective
Tyre wear - fragments of vehicle tyres that are worn off in transit - is the second largest microplastic pollutant in our environment, after single-use plastics. 
These rubber particles, some too small to be seen by the naked eye, can travel through the air and even be breathed in by roadside pedestrians.  
So a firm called the Tyre Collective is developing a patent-pending device that captures tyre wear at the wheel before it can be propelled into the surrounding environment. 
The attachable filter uses static electricity to attract tyre fragments, like the static from when you rub a balloon against a sweater.
As well as spearheading the capture and monitoring of tyre wear, the team are exploring upcycling it into new products, such as more ultra-robust tyres.

The No. 9 London bus, on average, releases 4.65g per journey and a total of 65g a day. (Car and EV quantities based on a 16km UK average commute per day)

Amphitex 
The third start-up, called Amphibio, is developing Amphitex, a sustainable and recyclable alternative to traditional waterproof breathable textiles used in the outdoor apparel industry.
Current performance outdoor textiles are impossible to recycle and use many harmful chemicals, meaning they face either landfill or incineration when they're disposed of. 
Conversely, Amphitex will be made from a combination of recycled and plant-based feedstock, resulting in a carbon negative textile.
Amphibio said it is also creating an artificial gill to dramatically reduce the weight of heavy tanks used in diving equipment.

Aerseeds 
Lastly, Aerseeds are described as aerodynamic seed pods made from food waste - although they look like simple paper airplanes. 
Mimicking natural processes, Aerseeds are carried by the wind to cover large areas and reach difficult terrains where they deliver nutrients and seeds to soils depleted by human activity. 
In this way, they are essentially human-made seed dispersers that 'work with nature to accelerate regeneration up to 10 times'.

All winners will receive £50,000 funding and mentoring from Sir Jony Ive and the corporate members of the Sustainable Markets Initiative. 
Sir Ive, who notably worked at Apple from 1992 to 2019, said: 'All the Design Lab winners have ideas and designs that deserve to be developed. 
'The ingenuity and determination of these designers has produced some extraordinarily creative responses, and they now embark on the journey to turn these great ideas into practical solutions.
'We can all have good ideas.

I find it reassuring, particularly facing the overwhelming challenge of climate change, that we can all contribute ideas that could evolve into valuable solutions. I love not only the power of a good idea but how egalitarian and inclusive they can be.'
