Wales became the first part of the United Kingdom to mandate solar panels on new buildings
When new building regulations come into effect in March 2027, Wales will officially be the first part of the United Kingdom to mandate solar on new buildings.
The new regulations don't explicitly mandate solar panels, but require "a system for renewable energy generation" to be onsite, and experts believe it will lead to rooftop solar "in virtually every circumstance," given that it's the most functional and affordable option.
There are also exceptions to prevent uneconomical and impractical systems from being installed just to be in compliance — for example, systems must be able to generate at least 720 kWh per year, and if that's not possible, the requirement won't apply.
Why is this good news? So many buildings being constructed have unused space on top of them that could serve a functional purpose: generating clean energy and helping expedite the clean energy transition. Utilizing clean energy comes with a myriad of benefits.

Inspired by her three autistic siblings, an occupational therapist created a sensory-friendly hijab
When Najma Omar was attending the University of Minnesota to pursue a career in occupational therapy, her professor asked her to imagine tools that hadn't yet been invented to help people, but should exist.
That's when Najma thought of her own family. Among the 10 children, three are autistic, and all of them have different sensory and communication needs. In particular, she thought of her younger sister Nasteho, 17, who struggled with wearing her hijab.
So she invented a better one. Designed with lightweight, stretchy fabric and subtle ear padding, Najma's SereniHijab helps reduce overwhelming sounds while remaining breathable and wearable for everyday use.
