Life out there is constantly changing. Bright Side made a list of the latest inventions that will make the world around us cleaner, safer, and kind.

1. Solar Panel Road That is not even solar roofs we are talking about. that isroads made of solar panels. Covered in a silicon-based resin that can withstand the weight of passing big rigs, they generate enough electricity to power the street lights. They are probably not very efficient right now, but this is surely just the beginning.

2. Ocean Clean-Up This device consists of floating beams and platforms and was designed to clean up the plastic garbage in the ocean. Its guiding principle is passivity: rather than chasing trash all over the sea, it harnesses ocean currents and wind patterns that circulate plastic naturally. They expect the array to pull in 42% of the estimated garbage in the North Pacific Gyre in five years, making the oceans cleaner and safer.

5. Safety Truck This idea sounds so simple that you will ask why no one came up with it before. It's a system that relays video footage from the front of a truck to 4 screens on its back, giving drivers a clear view of what's ahead. This feature is a must in many countries with winding and narrow roads.

6. Vertical Gardening It's not only decoration and a source of oxygen. Installed outside, they process heavy metals, filter harmful gases, and catch dust. Inside, they can be used as real farms to grow herbs or simple veggies.
