Yes so, for physics my GCSE teacher has set us out to try and invent my own type/source of renewable energy, like solar or kinetic energy, I have some beginning ideas but I wanted you guys' input on this. So please post your ideas

Get a load of fat **** to ride bikes for an hour a day and collect the kinetic energy, solves two problems

everytime you click/type a character online, energy is wasted... if there was a way to harness energy from a keystroke it would be awesome (admittedly not much energy from one person.. but if a billion people did it?)

Saw something similar to this on xkcd, here is the link

Actually, that's not bad but may I edit the idea.

So instead of the keyboard being USB powered, it would have rechargeable batteries. Every time you press a key, it recharges the batteries a little.

How about a dynamo on a hamster wheel? The hamster goes on the wheel a lot, spins the dynamo, and boom, energy

Stupid, but unique idea I guess
