    Wind and solar projects can profit from bitcoin mining
    Cornell University

    Bitcoin mining is often perceived as environmentally damaging because it uses huge amounts of electricity to power its intensive computing needs, but a new study demonstrates how wind and solar projects can profit from bitcoin mining during the precommercial development phase — when a wind or solar farm is generating electricity, but has not yet been integrated into the grid.

    Newswise: When Occupational Therapy Becomes Occupational Justice
    Release date: 27-Nov-2023 11:05 AM EST
    When Occupational Therapy Becomes Occupational Justice
    Tufts University

    Lindsey Hoffman, Tufts University alumna, is an occupational therapist with the National Health Service (NHS) in London, working at a hospital helping patients get back on their feet—sometimes quite literally. Most recently, she’s focused on geriatric patients, from helping them do the most basic things—getting out of bed and dressed—to creating discharge plans to make sure they have adequate services once they are home recuperating. For each patient she works with, she tries to see the whole person and their life circumstances, with an eye particularly to what’s called occupational justice. That means “essentially the right to participate in anything that is meaningful to them,” she says. (Occupational therapy helps people do their day-to-day activities, not just on the job, but in all aspects of their personal lives.)
