1. Black Plastic

• It is commonly used to manufacture everyday items such as food trays, containers, and utensils.
• It is commonly made from recycled electronics waste, such as computers, TVs, and appliances. 
• Black plastics are more likely to contain unregulated amounts of toxic chemicals including the flame-retardant (e.g., bromine and antimony) and heavy metals (such as lead, cadmium, and mercury), which can leach into food and pose a hazard to human health. 

2. Ocelot (Quantum Computing Chip)

• Ocelot is a nine-qubit chip that can reduce the costs of implementing quantum error correction by up to 90%, when compared to current approaches.

• It has been launched by Amazon to help Amazon build highly efficient hardware systems.

• Earlier, Microsoft introduced its own quantum computing chip ‘Majorana 1’ that has been designed to be potentially scaled to a million qubits. 

• The chip aims to make fault-tolerant quantum computers more feasible, enabling them to solve complex problems in both commercial and scientific fields that are beyond the capabilities of today’s conventional computers.

• Qubits are the building blocks of quantum computers. While classical computers process text and images in binary code comprising bits, quantum computers run on qubits based on the principles of quantum mechanics. 

3. Set-Jetting 

• Set jetting or film tourism is defined as tourist travel to a destination because of its appearance in a film (or films). 

• It is being driven by the globalization of the entertainment industry, has been attributed to raising the awareness of previously unheard-of tourist destinations, and regenerating waning interest in others. 

• Set-Jetting in India:  The movie 3 Idiots played a pivotal role in bringing tourists to the tranquil Pangong Lake in Ladakh.

• Goa’s Chapora Fort, famously featured in Dil Chahta Hai, has become a well-known spot for fans of the film.
