Most of the time we ignore simple solutions dismissing them as too simplistic. But often we can achieve immeasurable amount of success with simple and practical solutions. We might think about the shape of wings and speed of airplanes but we don’t give much thought to an airplane’s wings in terms of reducing fuel and carbon emissions by making changes to those wings. But someone was looking at airplane’s wings and thinking of clean and green energy. If we make tiny holes in plane's wing they can reduce airline fuel intake by up to 40 per cent. A team of British scientists are relying upon the same principle that applies when you blow across the top of a bottle to make a sound.
