A food truck in the Netherlands is turning cigarette butts into currency, offering poffertjes, drinks and fruit in exchange for collected litter. Since launching in 2022, WasteBar has appeared at more than 50 events and gathered over 500,000 cigarette butts while encouraging people to see waste as something that can be removed, valued and discussed.

A water-based conductive ink developed at Pennsylvania State University dries in under ten minutes, forming flexible electrodes that capture ECG, EEG, and EMG signals — even on hairy or sweaty skin. In lab tests, participants wore the painted sensors through 12 hours of daily activity. The study was published in PNAS.
