Excursion in the hustle and bustle of Ant Colony who picnic goes at these pleasant temperatures with friends or in the outdoor swimming pool on the lawn, she meets guaranteed: bustling ants galore. But even if their nimble legs can sometimes unpleasant Tickle and even bite red forest ants, you should not be able to demonize the tiny. Because who consciously dealing with the complex system of an Ant Colony and meet their amazing skills, will be fascinated. A weightlifter is weak against it! The tremendous strength of an Ant, many have already heard safely. Even the best weightlifter is a weakling! Because the six-legged creatures with the tripartite bodies can lift up to one hundred times of their own weight. A 75 kilogram man would so lift a 7.5-ton truck to lift the same weight as an Ant! Also the estimate that total ten thousand trillion ants on the Earth live is almost unbelievable. Together they weigh more than the entire world population and make around 15% of the animal biomass on the planet out. And who would have thought that ants circulate worldwide even more ground as the earthworms known commonly as extremely useful? Universe ants inhabit a glass city hallmark of ants is their way of life: you join together in colonies.

Only they are able to survive. An isolated individual would perish within days. This complex system of life can be observed especially well in the universe of Bremen, where around 650,000 leaf-cutting ants from the Central Trinidad in a glass building of Ant life. Busy the animals up to 12 millimeters wide pursuing their tasks, get food, maintain the young and eliminate waste. As in the great outdoors, are the different areas of the life of the leaf-cutting ants in the universe strictly separated: there’s a glass lining ball, the ball of a nest and a garbage ball.

In everyday natural forces properly use – put together by Polaris how practical renewable energy in people’s everyday lives, which is an ancient knowledge. Source: Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr.. It falls increasingly into oblivion. “New household appliances and artificial AIDS to displace the old home remedies ‘ which at the same time save energy supports energy transformation can be, and”, says Florian Henle, co-founder of the independent green energy company Polaris. Therefore, it has now dug out Polaris and shows six examples of how everyone in various everyday situations can use 100 percent renewable energy sources: Tip 1: Sun instead of stain remover with the power of the Sun can easily fight carrots -, bell peppers and other vegetables and grass stains. To wash the clothes and wet lay in the Sun. And already, the stain is gone after a few hours. The trick works on all organic stains. And if they are particularly stubborn, a few splashes of distribute lemon juice on it before washing.

Tip 2: wind instead of dryers and irons Who dries the linen in the wind, which saves time and costs. Because out there getting a little wind is blowing, the water molecules disappear usually faster lining as in the drying room. In comparison to the dryer air drying is not necessarily faster, but for low-cost: typical dryers consume per drying cycle up to four kilowatt hours electricity caused the extrapolated to the year round at a Zweipersonenhaus 70 euro per year. Important: Shaded areas are better to dry than the strong sunlight. You makes the laundry harder and can cause discoloration. Tip 3: rain barrel or collectors instead of tap water is a precious commodity in everyday life.

In the summer, if you must pour the garden or balcony daily, it is worth to collect rain water. But the rain water is suitable not only for casting. Because it contains no lime, it possesses a higher cleaner than tap water.
