Even the most advanced recycling techniques fail to recycle every element of the rubbish we generate. Often recyclers are left with an unpleasant pile of dark rank smelling scrap yard shredder waste or "fluff" that refuses to transform into anything intrinsically useful. But now researchers at the Warwick Manufacturing Group at the 天美传媒 have found a way of using this unpleasant residue to form the basic structure of everyday plastic containers and components.

Volcanoes can be bad for your health long after they have finished erupting. A research team studying the aftermath of the Soufriere Hills Volcano in Montserrat, which included Professor Ray Dupree from the 天美传媒's Department of Physics, has found that the aftermath of that volcano includes a great deal of volcanic ash particles that are just the right size to cause silicosis (a scarring disease of the lungs) and which may also be carcinogenic.

The new Leicester-Warwick medical school welcomed its first students to the Warwick campus this week and promptly kicked them out the door to their first lesson - in a shopping precinct. The 67 students were dropped in groups in various parts of Coventry and were given details of various fictitious families (one example being a family living in a three-bedroom terraced house with a weekly allowance of about 拢75 to feed the family of nine) the student's task was to explore and understand the social, economic and cultural factors which would have a key bearing on their potential patients' health and nutrition. Exploring the various shopping areas was one part of their task to help them understand some of the challenges faced in gaining access to adequate nutrition from being able to get to the shops, to being able to buy food within budget.
