My cunning plan for human survival: if these things come you, suddenly change direction in front of a wall.
Chinese humanoid robot by smartphone maker Honor (“Lightning”) ran 100m in 9.32 seconds (Usain Bolt’s record is 9.58 seconds). Perhaps more impressively: it crashed into a safety wall without having its waist implode with sparks flying off.

Groundwater is the main source of water for half of all urban populations. But it is undervalued, overexploited & mismanaged. Explore how valuing groundwater can underscore its true importance: wrld.bg/wYGH50Pgyaj
