The voracious Indo-Pacific fish has no natural predators here and so continues to increase in numbers, menacing reefs and native fish populations. To counter this marine misfortune, iRobot, not satisfied hunting down dirt and pet hair, has developed a lionfish hunting sea robot!

In line with these provisions a special open source software development lab has been established with locations in Europe, Africa, and Asia. Additional regions will be added. The labs, the United Nations Innovation Labs (UNTIL), are intended to accelerate society by addressing some of the needs assessed as being urgent.The head of UNTIL is in an interview which might be of more symbolic value than anything else. However, it is news that the labs are getting off the ground.
