New green technology generates electricity ‘out of thin air’

Summary:
Renewable device could help mitigate climate change, power medical devices Some scientists on twitter describe themselves as climate optimists and say it's not too late to avert disaster. Let's hope so?Electrical engineers and microbiologists have created a device they call an 'Air-gen.' or air-powered generator, with electrically conductive protein nanowires produced by the microbe Geobacter. The Air-gen connects electrodes to the protein nanowires in such a way that electrical current is generated from the water vapor naturally present in the atmosphere.
