  • An exhibition about renewable energy and carbon emissions has been set up inside the offices of Bio Regional Development Group in the BedZED housing complex on Thursday, Sep. 6, 2007, in London, UK. BedZED or the Beddington Zero Energy Development, is an environmentally-friendly housing development near Wallington, England in the London Borough of Sutton. It was designed by the architect Bill Dunster who was looking for a more sustainable way of building housing in urban areas in partnership between the BioRegional Development Group and the Peabody Trust. There are 82 houses, 17 apartments and 1,405 square meters of work space were built between 2000. The project was shortlisted for the Stirling Prize in 2003. The project is designed to use only energy from renewable source generated on site. In addition to 777 square meters of solar panels, tree waste is used for heating and electricity. The houses face south to take advantage of solar gain, are triple glazed and have high thermal insulation while most rain water is collected and reused. Appliances are chosen to be water efficient and use recycled water wherever possible. Low impact building materials were selected from renewable or recycled sources and were all originating within a 35 mile radius of the site to minimize the energy required for transportation. Also, refuse collection facilities are designed to support recycling and the site encourage eco-friendly transport: electric and LPG cars have priority over petrol/diesel cars, and electricity is provided by parking spaces appositely built for charging electric cars.

Appliances are chosen to be water efficient and use recycled water wherever possible. Low impact building materials were selected from renewable or recycled sources and were all originating within a 35 mile radius of the site to minimize the energy required for transportation. Also, refuse collection facilities are designed to support recycling and the site encourage eco-friendly transport: electric and LPG cars have priority over petrol/diesel cars, and electricity is provided by parking spaces appositely built for charging electric cars.

  • Climate change activists are challenging the weather, and the authorities, by setting up a seven-day-long camp 800 meters from Heathrow airport to protest against climate change and the expansion plans for the airport on Tuesday, Aug. 14, 2007, in Hayes and Harlington, England. Aviation is the fastest growing source of greenhouse gas emissions in the UK, and all our efforts to tackle climate change in other sectors are undone by the massive growth in air travel. Holding the camp at Heathrow aims to highlight the paradoxical government's airport expansion plans, target industry giants profiteering from the climate crisis, and raise awareness about the need to fly less. The camp also support local residents in their long-term struggle against the building of a third runway and the destruction of their communities.

  • Vernon Watkins, 62, is holding some of the coal extracted from Unity Mine for the first time in 8 years on Tuesday, July 31, 2007, in Cwmgwrach, Vale of Neath, South Wales. The time is ripe again for an unexpected revival of the coal industry in the Vale of Neath due to the increasing prize and diminishing reserves of oil and gas, the uncertainties of renewable energy sources, and the technological advancement in producing energy from coal while limiting emissions of pollutants, has created the basis for valuable investment opportunities and a possible alternative to the latest energy crisis. Unity Mine, in particular, has started a pioneering effort to revive the coal industry in the area, reopening after more than 8 years with the intent of exploiting the large resources still buried underground. Coal could be then answer to both, access to cheaper and paradoxically greener energy and a better and safer choice than nuclear energy as a major supply for the decades to come. It is estimated that coal reserves in Wales amount to over 250 million tonnes, or the equivalent of at least 50 years of energy supply, while the worldwide total coal could last for over 200 years as a viable resource compared to only a few decades of oil and natural gas.

The time is ripe again for an unexpected revival of the coal industry in the Vale of Neath due to the increasing prize and diminishing reserves of oil and gas, the uncertainties of renewable energy sources, and the technological advancement in producing energy from coal while limiting emissions of pollutants, has created the basis for valuable investment opportunities and a possible alternative to the latest energy crisis. Unity Mine, in particular, has started a pioneering effort to revive the coal industry in the area, reopening after more than 8 years with the intent of exploiting the large resources still buried underground. Coal could be then answer to both, access to cheaper and paradoxically greener energy and a better and safer choice than nuclear energy as a major supply for the decades to come. It is estimated that coal reserves in Wales amount to over 250 million tonnes, or the equivalent of at least 50 years of energy supply, while the worldwide total coal could last for over 200 years as a viable resource compared to only a few decades of oil and natural gas...

  • Climate change activists are protesting in front of the British police during a 24 hours mass action being held near the British Airport Association (BAA) headquarters, close to Heathrow airport, to demonstrate against climate change and the expansion plans for the airport on Sunday, Aug. 19, 2007, Heathrow, England. More than 1800 police officers were deployed to counter the activists in their plan to disrupt the BAA activities on the site. Aviation is the fastest growing source of greenhouse gas emissions in the UK, and all our efforts to tackle climate change in other sectors are undone by the massive growth in air travel. Holding the camp at Heathrow aims to highlight the paradoxical government's airport expansion plans, target industry giants profiteering from the climate crisis, and raise awareness about the need to fly less. The camp also support local residents in their long-term struggle against the building of a third runway and the destruction of their communities.

  • Climate change activists are being challenged by the UK police during a 24 hours mass action in front of the British Airport Association (BAA), close to Heathrow airport to protest against climate change and the expansion plans for the airport on Sunday, Aug. 19, 2007, Heathrow, England. More than 1800 police officers were deployed to counter the activists in their plan to disrupt the BAA activities on the site. Aviation is the fastest growing source of greenhouse gas emissions in the UK, and all our efforts to tackle climate change in other sectors are undone by the massive growth in air travel. Holding the camp at Heathrow aims to highlight the paradoxical government's airport expansion plans, target industry giants profiteering from the climate crisis, and raise awareness about the need to fly less. The camp also support local residents in their long-term struggle against the building of a third runway and the destruction of their communities.
