Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: RMIT researchers in Australia are adding about 1% cigarette butt material to clay to make bricks that need less kiln energy, are lighter, and insulate better, helping address the over six trillion plastic, toxin-leaching cigarette butts discarded yearly. At Zoo Atlanta, a Georgia Tech PhD student designed an audio enrichment system for elephants—computer vision detects trunks entering a wall’s holes and triggers low-frequency tones that the elephants find stimulating even without food. A 98-year-old WWII veteran became the world’s oldest wing walker, standing atop a biplane for over nine minutes at 1,000+ feet after 11 months of training, fundraising for the Lenox Children’s Cancer Fund. Sunil, 57, set a record with 858 paper cups from 31 countries and is pursuing wedding invitation collecting. In Florida, a backyard rhesus monkey sighting is linked to a wild population living near Silver Springs since 1938.
