Environmental Implications of Nanotechnology

OLD: Energy Inefficient NEW: Energy Efficient Fuel Cells

Nanotechnology Pros: - Very small - Resistant to degradation Cons:

Environmental Implications of Nanotechnology Largemouth bass exposed to C60 showed oxidative damage to brain No noticeable difference in behavior Mechanism unclear

Environmental Implications of Nanotechnology Human cells exposed to C60 exhibited a toxic response Levels as low as 20ppb caused toxicity May or may not be transferable to cells in body
