 Marine Cloud Brightening - Tribute to Stephen Salter - Apr 14, 2024
Climate Engineering (Lockley - Playlist) (2,011 Views;61 min.) |
|
| The Climate Emergency Forum hosts a discussion about the late Stephen Salter, a pioneering professor of engineering at the University of Edinburgh, and his work on marine cloud brightening (MCB) as a potential solution for mitigating global warming.\n\nThis video was recorded on March 27th, 2024, and published on April 14th, 2024.\n\nThe participants reflect on Salter's innovative ideas and creative mindset. A key focus is Salter's proposal to use a fleet of unmanned ships to spray fine sea water droplets into marine clouds to increase their reflectivity and albedo, thereby reflecting more sunlight back into space and cooling the planet. Salter provided calculations on the number of ships needed for different cooling goals, such as reversing sea level rise or preserving Arctic ice. The dialogue highlights the relatively low cost and scalability of this approach versus other geoengineering methods.\n\nThe participants emphasize the need for solutions like MCB, given the rapidly ... |

| Pylons are ugly and nobody likes them! Filling up our countryside with thousands more of them to facilitate a massive electricity grid expansion is proving to be a very tricky challenge with lots of local opposition. But what if you could build your electricity grid out at sea and just bring cables to shore where they’re needed?\n\nHelp support this channels independence at \nhttp://www.patreon.com/justhaveathink \n\nOr with a donation via Paypal by clicking here\nhttps://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick\u0026hosted_button_id=GWR73EHXGJMAE\u0026source=url \n\nYou can also help keep my brain ticking over during the long hours of research and editing via the nice folks at BuyMeACoffee.com \n\nhttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/justhaveathink\n\nVideo Transcripts available at our website \n\nhttp://www.justhaveathink.com \n\nReference links\n\nChina’s MILLION VOLT Energy Superhighway\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rThkjp-bp8M\n\nUK Holistic Network Design ... |

 Geologic Sequestration of Carbon Dioxide: The State of Responsible Primacy - Apr 12, 2024
Climate Engineering (Lockley - Playlist) (14 Views;60 min.) |
|
| Industrial carbon capture and carbon dioxide removal are important strategies to reach global and national net zero CO2 emissions targets and to keep global temperatures at or below 1.5°C. The most common setting for permanently sequestering CO2 after it has been captured is underground, in very deep, impermeable rock formations. To regulate and monitor the sequestered CO2, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is charged with administering the Underground Injection Control (UIC) program, whereby it sets regulatory standards and processes applications for underground wells with the goal of preventing contamination of drinking water under the Safe Drinking Water Act.\n\nA new issue brief from the National Wildlife Federation – Geologic Sequestration of Carbon Dioxide: The State of Responsible Primacy – examines the question of who should have authority over carbon storage wells: states or the federal government, an issue known as “primacy.†It includes details on ... |

 Protecting drinking water on prairies from emerging pollutant - Apr 10, 2024
PHYS.ORG - Earth (15 Views;2 min.) |
|
| Researchers from the University of Guelph used the CLS to learn more about an emerging pollutant prevalent in groundwater across the Prairies. Sulfolane, which is used to treat sour gas, has recently been linked to fertility issues in cattle and has been found in their milk. The researchers are studying how sulfolane moves in groundwater, to determine the risk it poses to potable waters, such as wells. The Brockhouse and SGM beamlines are enabling the team to see how naturally occurring salts impact the movement of sulfolane in water and its ability to mix thoroughly with water. What they’re learning could help inform remediation efforts. To read the full story online, visit: |

 Sandro Vattioni: Risks and benefits of climate intervention via stratospheric aerosol injection - Apr 10, 2024
Climate Engineering (Lockley - Playlist) (48 Views;61 min.) |
|
| Risks and benefits of climate intervention via stratospheric aerosol injection of solid particles\n\nSpeaker: Sandro Vattioni, ETH Zurich\n\nAbstract:\nRecent studies have suggested that injection of solid particles such as alumina and calcite instead of SO2 for climate intervention via stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) could reduce some of the adverse side effects of SAI such as ozone depletion and stratospheric heating. However, the expected improvements are subject to large uncertainties. We constrain some of these uncertainties by experimental work on calcite particles using elastic recoil detection analysis and in-situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Subsequently, we use a global aerosol-chemistry-climate model that, for the first time, interactively couples microphysical and chemical processes of solid particles as well as sulfuric acid aerosols with model radiation and transport. Notably, SAI by solid particles only leads to more effective radiative forcing per ... |

PHYS.ORG - Technology (577 Views;3 min.) |
|
| Four teams of Rice University engineering students converted a 1997 Chevy P30 delivery van into a fully electric vehicle in less than a year, using a combination of parts scavenged from out-of-use vehicles, custom-built elements and off-the-shelf items.\n\nWith over 20 students involved overall, the electric conversion van project, or E-VAN, is a true feat not only in terms of engineering design but also timing and coordination. The students worked on E-VAN as part of their capstone design projects ⎯ an important part of the Rice engineering education that serves as an occasion to get hands-on experience developing and building solutions to concrete engineering challenges.\n\nThe project will compete in the annual Harrell and Carolyn Huff engineering design showcase and competition, which will take place 4:30-7 p.m. April 11 at the Ion. The event, which is open to the public, is an opportunity to experience the creativity and dedication of Rice undergraduate engineering ... |

 SUMMARY: 'Long-term variability in debris transiting white dwarfs' - Apr 09, 2024
PHYS.ORG - Earth (355 Views;7 min.) |
|
| But whether the planet we call home is "swallowed" up by our dying star or manages to escape its clutches, only time will tell. The inner planets Mercury and Venus will almost certainly be crushed and engulfed by the sun, according to a new paper titled "Long-term variability in debris transiting white dwarfs," published today in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. But even if Earth does outlive its star, unfortunately it still wouldn't be habitable. On the plus side, it would at least fare better than some of Jupiter's moons, which an international team of astrophysicists say could be dislodged and shredded as the sun runs out of energy. They came up with the terrifying prophecy of what our solar system may look like five billion years from now after studying what happens to planetary systems like our own when their host stars become white dwarfs. "Whether or not the Earth can just move out fast enough before the sun can catch up and ... |
