Fast Company weaves an amazing story about Indian inventor Arunachalam Muruganantham, who lost his wife, friends, and, well, almost everything in his quest to build a better sanitary napkin by wearing one himself鈥攁long with a goat blood-filled bladder. After learning his wife along with the overwhelming majority of women in India couldn ;t afford a sanitary napkin Muruganantham set out to invent an inexpensive al

In fact, back in 1998 Pepsi was all set to use these same cans, but it was discovered that the refrigerant used contributed to greenhouse gases. So it was back to the drawing board for another 12 years while the company developed a suitable replacement that now uses environmentally-friendly activated carbon and carbon dioxide. The science behind how the cans actually work seems like it a closely guarded secret, but once the West Coast Chillers start popping up in stores for about $3 a can, I ;m sure we ;ll have the opportunity to open one up and see how it ticks. But, since the cooling mechanism is recyclable, maybe we
