Expeditionary Carbon Utilization for energy Resilience and Stabilization (ExCURSion)
The Defense Sciences Office (DSO) at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is soliciting innovative research proposals in the foundational technologies area to enable carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction, capture, and storage.
These technologies are envisioned as key components for a future self-enclosed system that creates liquid carbon fuels and uses them to store and deploy energy to address the need for energy resilience in an expeditionary setting, independent of a fuel supply line.
The envisioned system will enable safe, field-deployable, high-density, and rechargeable energy storage.
Proposed research should investigate innovative approaches enabling revolutionary advances in science, devices, or systems.
Specifically excluded is research primarily resulting in evolutionary improvements to the existing state of practice.

Keeping Half the Profits Beats Non-profits for Social Impact
Melbourne social enterprise Who Gives A Crap sold nearly 3 million rolls of toilet paper in 2014/15 and gave half the proceeds to WaterAid Australia, but co-founder Simon Griffiths says the donation would have been less had the startup adopted a non-profit model when it launched two years ago.
