But one of the biggest breakthroughs in clean energy was actually in solar power, as designers at Rawlemon created a spherical, sun-tracking glass globe that's able to concentrate sunlight (and moonlight) up to 10, 000 times.
All 80 game tables and 850 slot machines form a kind of orbit around a multi-story glass sun by American artist Dale Chihuly, around which swarm scantily-clad resort guests, crisply-attired croupiers and more than a few celebrities (rumoured recent sightings include Kim Kardashian and Justin Bieber).
The sun-drenched 19th and 20th floor residence has floor to ceiling glass walls, a master suite with a fireplace and French doors opening to a terrace, and an oversized master bath and dressing room.
