Mundiali Developing New Electric Bicycle

Mundiali announces today, that it has begun developing the next generation of Electric Bicycles. These comprehensive bicycles are being developed as the world’s most innovative and efficient Bicycles. A completely new design created from the ground up to meet the needs of real people seeking an affordable and accessible alternative to traditional transportation.

Mundiali’s process design and mechanical engineering teams are working tirelessly day and night to bring forth a demo model in 2011. The team has been working over the past year to reach this stage. Mundiali conducted extensive research and analysis on all bicycles from road and mountain to traditional electric bikes to discover opportunities in efficiency and productivity. By establishing measurable and specific targets and goals, issues and desired outcomes of real people, the data has lead Mundiali’s team to create a new vision and design that delivers a sleek style and high performance ability.

Mundiali is in the final stages of finishing the pre-production and once the product is released to be manufactured more updates and details will be posted. Please check back for the latest information.

Global Warming - Businesses

With reports that last month was the second warmest July on record, and that 2010 remains to be on track as the hottest year ever. Glaciers are shrinking all over the world, and we are losing the sea ice in the Arctic Ocean.

Have you implemented actions that save money, improve productivity, increase revenue, and protect the environment? There are significant opportunities in addressing these questions, and a Mundiali Assessment resolves the very real problem of having to cut costs, enhance processes, and be more environmentally friendly at the same time.

Mundiali Starts Clean Tech Committee

Mundiali continues to explore clean, affordable energy. As such, the creation of a Clean Tech Committee was formed. The Clean Tech Committee charter is to create new business opportunities related to Renewable Energy.
Mundiali agrees with the American Council On Renewable Energy (ACORE) belief that “a renewable energy future [as well as conservation practices] is an economically superior future, offering investment opportunities, wealth creation, accelerated economic growth, new company formation and jobs”. Our committee is working to establish a framework for economic growth through Clean Technology, Conservation, and Sustainable Practices. We currently have local small business leaders participating, and we completed our first meeting last week. As expected, the meeting was a great first step towards the creation of a framework for new business related to Renewable Energy and Conservation. We had a guest speaker for our first meeting which created a valuable discussion on the history and future opportunities within the industry. Other guest speakers are being scheduled.
If you are interested in learning more about this committee, please contact Alex at: info@Mundiali.com

How Eco-Friendly is Fuel Cell Technology?

Our lunch conversation over Thai food focused on an article spotted in today's Wall Street Journal: "Start-Up Claims Fuel-Cell Breakthrough," an article by Jim Carlton. Bloom Energy Corp has developed an Energy Server leveraging fuel cell technology, which produces power around the clock.

So...how eco-friendly is fuel cell technology?

We are encouraged to see the passion surrounding fuel cell technology, another option for consumers in terms of eco-friendly power generation - both commercial and residential.

We support further exploration of different uses of fuel, such as Biomass or other alternative, sustainable sources, rather than natural gas which is mentioned in the article. We hope companies focused on fuel cell technology will eventually consider more bio-related sources such as E-Fuel Corporation with its GridBuster ethanol generator.

Don't underestimate the power of the sun. We believe any successful eco-strategy will require the use of multiple, renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, small-scale hydro and Biomass.
