Nature inspires more creative mindsThe more you get away from the stresses of daily life and the more time you spend outdoors, the greater your level of creativity. That’s the conclusion from a new study that found a team of backpackers were 50 percent more creative after they had spent four days on the trail.

New stats out on veterans and civilian employment. →

thepoliticalnotebook:

  • New stats out from Military.com’s twice yearly survey show that only 29% of veterans feel confident about transitioning into the civilian workforce, down sharply from 44% six months ago. Only 39% of employers reported believing veterans would be prepared for a career change. The roots of this are believed to be misunderstandings of the work done in military service and how that translates to civilian jobs and reservations over hiring veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder.

[DUBAI] A group of Grade 6 pupils in Dubai want to convince schools across the country to convert to solar energy - and save up to Dh1 million a year on their electricity bills.
If their mission, under the banner “Make A Difference”, is successful, the students at Emirates International School Jumeirah estimate that schools can reduce electricity usage by 20 per cent. (via Students want schools to use solar - The National)
