'Water is more valuable than oil': the corporation cashing in on America's drought
In an unprecedented deal, a private company purchased land in a tiny Arizona town - and sold its water rights to a suburb 200 miles away. Local residents fear the agreement has 'opened Pandora's box'
Tucked into the bends of the lower Colorado River, Cibola, Arizona, is a community of about 200 people.
Nearly a decade ago, Greenstone Resource Partners LLC, a private company backed by global investors, bought almost 500 acres of agricultural land here in Cibola. In a first-of-its-kind deal, the company recently sold the water rights tied to the land to the town of Queen Creek, a suburb of Phoenix, for a $14m gross profit. More than 2,000 acre-feet of water from the Colorado River that was once used to irrigate farmland is now flowing, through a canal system, to the taps of homes more than 200 miles away.

'Levels are dropping': drought saps Zambia and Zimbabwe of hydropower
Vast human-made Lake Kariba is at near-record low, causing daily power cuts and devastating two African economies.
Lake Kariba, the world's largest human-made lake. A punishing drought has drained the huge reservoir close to record lows, raising the prospect that the Kariba Dam, which powers the economies of Zambia and Zimbabwe, may have to shut down for the first time in its 65-year history.

Pictures MUST credit: Nimble Beauty
Nail salon visits could become a thing of the past for anyone who invests in a new machine that uses artificial intelligence to perform a manicure.
The device, called Nimble, learns the shape, size and curvature of a user's nails for the benefit of a robot arm that mimics the movement of a human nail technician.
The arm can then precisely apply a base coat, two coats of colour and a top coat said to stay chip-free for up to seven days.
The California-based company behind it, Nimble Beauty, says the 270-degree nail-scanning technology uses more than 20 algorithms to calculate polish application and instruct the robotic arm.
A user inserts the vase coat, nail colour and top coat which come in special capsules, into the machine.
The user puts one hand inside and presses a start button which lets off the device scanning, painting and then drying the nails.
Then it’s time for the other hand to go in.
The company has its own range of pre-loaded colour polishes.

A striking contrast can be drawn between photos taken a year apart on Southampton Common, Hampshire showing the different weather conditions the UK has experienced. Due to this year's wet and cooler summer, the grass is lush and green compared to this time last year where the turf can be seen as dry and patchy due to the scorching spell.

Pictured: THEN: August 2022. The dry grass of Southampton Common resembles a sandy beach during the hot weather we were experiencing last year.
A striking contrast can be drawn between photos taken a year apart on Southampton Common, Hampshire showing the different weather conditions the UK has experienced. Due to this year's wet and cooler summer, the grass is lush and green compared to this time last year where the turf can be seen as dry and patchy due to the scorching spell.
