The Barents Sea ecoregion - the part of the World Ocean north of the Nordic countries and Northwest Russia, has a unique environment with major sea bird colonies, rich benthic and plankton fauna and many major sea mammal species. Within this ecoregion, this graphic illustrates the existing coverage of protected areas. One of the main threats to the region is the development associated with the expansion of fossil fuel extraction activities. Russia and Norway are expanding new fields, and traffic is expected to increase. As illustrated, there are few marine protected areas, and few that are coastal.

At the Next Einstein Forum 2018, Minister of Environment, Vincent Biruta, joined a panel discussion on Africa's Low Carbon Circular Economy. The discussion provided recommendations on how to unlock the full potential of the circular economy in Africa to ensure the transition to industrial economies does not produce waste and pollution but rather accelerate growth and job creation.

The "constructed environment" in this picture is the leaves and sticks next to the tree.

Binford Middle School in Richmond, Va., hosts several features that reduce stormwater, including rain barrels, seen on Aug. 13, 2019. The centerpiece of the school's green infrastructure efforts is a cloud-shaped rain harvesting sculpture, "Taking a School by Storm," a collaborative design by artists Matt Lively and Tim Harper, landscape expert Scotty Dilworth, stormwater specialists Dave Hirschman and Charlene Harper, Meredeth Dash of the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay, as well as Binford educators and students. The project was funded with $200,000 from the National Fish & Wildlife Foundation Small Watershed Grant program. (Photo by Will Parson/Chesapeake Bay Program)

An osprey perches on a dilapidated piling near the Manchester Bridge on the James River in downtown Richmond, Va., on Aug. 13, 2019. Like many cities on the eastern seaboard, Richmond was established along the fall line, the area of geological transition between coastal plain and Piedmont, where rivers often have a steeper gradient and become too rocky for large vessels. Cities like Richmond became the terminus for ships carrying goods as far as they could upstream. (Photo by Will Parson/Chesapeake Bay Program)

EM sites won the majority of awards given to DOE for their outstanding performance in the 2012 Federal Electronics Challenge (FEC). This Environmental Protection Agency initiative encourages federal facilities to buy greener electronics, lessen their impact during use and discard outdated equipment in an environmentally safe way.

 

If EM were a freestanding agency, it would rank second in total number of FEC awards received within the entire federal government.

Coccoloba uvifera (Linnaeus, 1753) - sea grape in Florida, USA.

 

Plants are multicellular, photosynthesizing eucaryotes. Most species occupy terrestrial environments, but they also occur in freshwater and saltwater aquatic environments. The oldest known land plants in the fossil record are Ordovician to Silurian. Land plant body fossils are known in Silurian sedimentary rocks - they are small and simple plants (e.g., Cooksonia). Fossil root traces in paleosol horizons are known in the Ordovician. During the Devonian, the first trees and forests appeared. Earth's initial forestation event occurred during the Middle to Late Paleozoic. Earth's continents have been partly to mostly covered with forests ever since the Late Devonian. Occasional mass extinction events temporarily removed much of Earth's plant ecosystems - this occurred at the Permian-Triassic boundary (251 million years ago) and the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary (65 million years ago).

 

The most conspicuous group of living plants is the angiosperms, the flowering plants. They first unambiguously appeared in the fossil record during the Cretaceous. They quickly dominated Earth's terrestrial ecosystems, and have dominated ever since. This domination was due to the evolutionary success of flowers, which are structures that greatly aid angiosperm reproduction.

 

Sea grapes are shrubs or trees having deep green-colored, subcircular leaves, often with reddish-colored midrib veination. The fruits are clusters of grape-like structures. This plant is common in back-beach and other near-shoreline settings. Its root systems are effective in slowing or preventing erosion of unconsolidated sand substrates. It occurs in subtropical to tropical shoreline environments in the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico areas.

 

Classification: Plantae, Angiospermophyta, Caryophyllales, Polygonaceae

 

Locality: Lighthouse Point Beach, easternmost Sanibel Island, southwestern Florida, USA

Stirling Castle is often noted as the gateway to Scotland for those seeking to control the fate of the nation through violent conflict. Wars of pitched battles and decisive victories with strongholds held and fallen are fought with new armour and weapons in governance, information and debate. The castles of old were completed and some neglected whilst others like this one continuing over the centuries serving fortification, royal palace, barracks and regimental headquarters before becoming a museum and tourist attraction. The splendour of their design and the repurposing of their function brings about intriguing symbols in their picturesque charisma.
