The water efficient washing machine will help the world saving one of the most if not most important natural source of life. Nations biggest concerns today is the lack of water and with the global warming effect increasing every year the need for more water would be necessary.

Some of the sub saharan african states can't even find clean drinking water
and the introduction of such technology could assist in saving more human lives.

Hope to not only see the product in north america but rather all
over the world.

Not much appreciabel, preventive measures are more needed instead to curative approach. When planting a tree and stopping the use of wood is more cost effective then why we wish to send our trees to museum! Growing and maintaining tree controllong emission is more important.

The synthetic trees looks a great Idea to start with....doesn't seems realistic...and good to eyes..but for the nature such inventions are indeed needed & that too sooner.
Good thing about these trees are that they can be placed anywhere on the top of buidings etc.

Another way of curbing CO2 emition would be introduction of hydrogen powered vehicles as combustion of Hydrogen gives only water vapour as residual...and I think research is underway on this as well...!!

dog language translation system - nothing better!!! i could use it especially in the morning, when my wife litle yorkshire rat starts barking and annoying me... she told me once that I look like crazy when shouting at the dog to shut up, but this morning I was really struck, when after 2 minutes of the dog's plain barking at our bedside my wife stood up at started screaming at the dog just like I did!!!! :) so I'd like to know, what th heck do these sounds mean!? It's like she's asking to go outside, causes there are signs of that she's done her thing already... I guess she just like keeping us awake at 6:30 in the morning.... even on weekends!! little bitch!

A tree that can absorb carbon four oxide 1000time faster than a normal tree? Supermegafantastic! But looking forward to making it cheaper and available to the public.

Good inventions. I would pick a few of them, but my favorite is the 3D sensors - would really like to have one of those at home. the ear-scanning tech invention is weird, and still it could be useful when I use my iPod.

Hope to see better information of this invention to show how it works and could detect more viruses or bacteria. Maybe this is only be a hypothetical.
