"Midsummer Night’s Dream" artwork decorates a pebble garden at George Mehl Foothills Park. The bronze shoes of people and fairies are "left behind" as visitors escape the real world for a little while.

The deal would have given Deutsche Bank the security of a consumer deposit base from Commerzbank while creating back-office synergies. But the two were unable to figure out how to “overcome both the challenges of integrating the banks’ technology, back-offices and other operations,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

National Grid estimates it will invest approximately $7.6 million over the three-year implementation of the project.

In addition all these solutions also have a significant disadvantage – they are isolated and fragmented, and treat each problem separately and not the system as a whole.

Because 30 to 60 per cent of all local government emissions stem from street lights, there’s still plenty of work left to do.

Harrisburg officials couldn’t find anyone willing to put warning buoys on both sides of the Dock Street Dam this year.

Loxodonta Africana sits on the corner of 22nd Street and Randolph Way to let you know the zoo is nearby. 

“I want you to handle this now,” Papenfuse told Enterline. “I need you to take the lead and make this thing work.”

Think, for example, to the fast food industry, which itself is facing automation. Uber, for its part, appears to be heading in the same direction—it is spending heavily on a future where self-driving vehicles may be the norm, and drivers are obsolete. The firm spent over $457 million in 2018 to research and develop a unit focused on futuristic projects including autonomous vehicles and flying cars. 

The same can’t be said for Finland, where a string of businesses have partnered with global financial solutions firm South Pole and Swedish bank SEB to launch a new marketplace for science-based CO2 removal certificates. The venture, called Puro, is currently developing verification methodologies for atmospheric CO2 removal.

Solar street lamp technology already exists but is yet to be installed at a city-wide scale, largely due to concerns surrounding the reliability of outputs and the cost of dismantling and replacing existing systems.  

After the first implementation, the system demonstrated robustness and stability, but it lacked functionality and flexibility. It was clear – one cannot build a future proof solution on an old foundation: induction meters and one-way communications. The utility needs were going beyond the collection of raw data, which was not giving any information on the time of consumption or load peaks. Besides, the system was not offering any means of control over the consumption. The old inductive meters were not allowing the implementation of saving incentive tools, such as time-of-use metering or demand side management, which would motivate consumers to decrease the level of consumption.
