  • Jun 7, 2017 - Jebel Irhoud, Morocco - In a pair of papers published in Nature, an international team of researchers describe 22 human fossils from northwest Morocco that are approximately 300,000 years old. According to the authors, it is the earliest evidence of Homo sapiens ever discovered. The first of our kind. The mandible Irhoud 11 is the first, almost complete adult mandible discovered at the site of Jebel Irhoud. It is very robust and reminiscent of the smaller Tabun C2 mandible discovered in Israel in a much younger deposit. The bone morphology and the dentition display a mosaic of archaic and evolved features, clearly assigning it to the root of our own lineage. (Credit Image: © Jean-Jacques Hublin/MPI via ZUMA Wire)

  • February 19, 2019 - MonçãO, Portugal - A wind turbine seen operating at the sub park Mendoiro-Bustavade, one of the 5 sub parks of the Alto Minho Wind Farm, Monção, Portugal..The Alto Minho Wind Farm has an installed capacity of 240 MW, distributed in five sub-parks, designated by Picos, Alto do Corisco, Santo António, Mendoiro-Bustavade and Picoto-São Silvestre. In the north part of the country, the Alto Minho Wind Farm in the Viana do Castelo district, of Portugal, became fully operational in November 2008. At the time of completion, it was Europe's largest on-shore wind farm. The wind farm consists of 68 Enercon E-82 2MW wind turbines and 52 Enercon E-70 E4 2MW turbines, for a grand total of 240 MW. The wind farm produces 530 GWh annually, avoiding 370,000 tonnes (410,000 tons) of carbon dioxide emissions. On March 2018, Portugal generated more renewable energy than it needed for the first time in at least 40 years. Energy from renewable sources made up 103.6 per cent of mainland electricity consumption, according to data from the country’s power grid operator REN, although fossil fuels were used to occasionally top up the electricity supply.

Kindeya Redaie has no electricity in his house, but he bought two steers with the money the state gave him in exchange for the right to put a wind turbine on his land.On the Tigray region plateau, in northern Ethiopia, 70-meter-high masts - 84 of them -  stand amid a landscape where the dry and stony soil is still turned over with a plow. The Ashegoda Wind Farm, built by the French companies Vergnet and Alstom, is a 'clean' development in one of the world's poorest nations.<br />
Like the vast majority of Ethiopians, Redaie must still settle for charcoal and 'cow wood' (dried cowpat) when he wants to cook his meals or have warm water. The power produced by the Ashegoda complex, which runs along underground cables before reaching the national network's high voltage lines, is still too expensive for him.<br />
All over, construction sites have emerged to build solutions without fossil fuels - which are for now expensively imported - and to provide a place for wind and solar energies, which are less vulnerable than hydroelectricity to repeated drought. The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, under construction on the Blue Nile River and a source of tension with the country's Egyptian and Sudanese neighbors, nevertheless promises to be one of Africa's most powerful hydroelectric monsters. Government officials contributed to its funding, which will be covered by national reserves.<br />
The country is trying to create 'a green economy that will hold up to the climate,' which requires the involvement of every sector responsible or vulnerable to climate change. That means energy, of course, but also agriculture, transport, industry and construction. 'Climate change is a strategic issue for Ethiopia,' the preamble to this project statement says. 'It can annihilat

  • May 4, 2017 - Bristol, Bristol, UK - Bristol, UK. Anti-fracking protest.

  • As world leaders converged on Paris for a United Nations conference on climate change, residents of Beijing and other cities in eastern China faced the most severe air pollution the nation has seen in 2015. Chinese authorities issued an "orange" air pollution alert, the second highest level on a four-tiered warning scale. They advised millions of people to stay indoors, halted construction at some sites, and ordered factories to close, according to news reports.<br />
The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on the Suomi NPP satellite acquired this natural-color image of northeastern China on November 30, 2015. The image shows extensive haze, low clouds, and fog over the region. The brightest areas are clouds or fog, which have tinges of gray or yellow because of the air pollution. Other cloud-free areas have a pall of gray haze that mostly blots out the cities below. In areas where the ground is visible, some of the landscape is covered with snow. The haze extended southwest from Beijing for hundreds of kilometers and was particularly dense in low-lying areas in the Guanzhong Plain.<br />
On the day VIIRS acquired the image, PM2.5 measurements peaked at 666 micrograms per cubic meter of air, according to ground-based sensors at the U.S. Embassy in Beijing. Fine, airborne particulate matter (PM) that is smaller than 2.5 microns (about one thirtieth the width of a human hair) is considered dangerous because it is small enough to enter human lungs. Most PM2.5 aerosol particles result from the burning of fossil fuels and biomass (wood fires and agricultural burning). The World Health Organization considers PM2.5 levels to be safe when they are below 25.<br />
Outbreaks of haze like this generally occur during the winter because of temperature inversions. Air normally cools with altitude, but during an inversion warm air settles above a layer of cool air near the surface. The warm air acts like a lid and traps pollutants near the surface, especially in basins and valleys.<br />

  • Jun 7, 2017 - Jebel Irhoud, Morocco - In a pair of papers published in Nature, an international team of researchers describe 22 human fossils from northwest Morocco that are approximately 300,000 years old. According to the authors, it is the earliest evidence of Homo sapiens ever discovered. View looking south of the Jebel Irhoud (Morocco) site. The remaining deposits and several people excavating them are visible in the center. At the time the site was occupied by early hominins, it would have been a cave, but the covering rock and much sediment were removed by work at the site in the 1960s.
