Space agencies have begun searching for a better option - partly because they worry about the cost of space (24) __________. The idea of a space elevator appeals to governments because it would be far cheaper than sending rockets into space.

It may not be easy though: countries might argue about the exact location of the elevator. But if the political leaders can cope (25) _________ these problems and manage to take part in the project together, it is certainly possible. Science fiction writer Arthur C.

The buckets are very heavy and often cause back and neck injuries. So engineers Pettie Petzer and Johan Joker designed 'rolling wheel' which can carry ninety litres of water and is much easier to move. 33,000 'Hippo- Rollers' have been made and delivered to remote villages in Africa. The results are good: women have more time to look after their families, the children have more time at school, and there are fewer injuries. LIEFSTRAW There are 780 million people in the world who don't have clean safe drinking water. This fact led the Swiss company Vestergaard to invent a special kind of straw that allows people to drink dirty water without getting ill. The LifeStraw is a long thin tube that cleans the water as it passes through into somebody's mouth. LifeStraw is very light and can clean up to 1,000 litres of water before you need to replace it. LifeStraw was used to help people after the Haiti earthquake, and floods in Pakistan and Thailand.
