With growing population and infrastructures the world’s exposure to natural hazards is inevitably increasing. This is particularly true as the strongest population growth is located in coastal areas (with greater exposure to floods, cyclones and tidal waves). To make matters worse any land remaining available for urban growth is generally risk-prone, for instance flood plains or steep slopes subject to landslides. The statistics in this graphic reveal an exponential increase in disasters. This raises several questions. Is the increase due to a significant improvement in access to information? What part does population growth and infrastructure development play? Finally, is climate change behind the increasing frequency of natural hazards.

In the week that they launched their major new book, ‘Fine Line: Twelve Environmental Sculptures Encircle the Earth’, Talking Pictures features an interview the New Zealand environmental artists Martin Hill and Philippa Jones. The couple have been collaborating for over three decades on the creation of ephemeral sculptures and land installations, which they then preserve as photographs. Their images speak to their concerns for sustainable design and circular systems, urging us to recognise the wisdom time has bestowed on Nature and to understand that we too can learn and adopt its restorative and regenerative processes.
You can read an interview with Martin Hill at Talking Pictures.

We were recently invited by Martin and Anina, from the Architectural Society of Scotland, to share their display space at the Dumfries & Galloway Environment Fair hosted at the Crichton in Dumfries.
What a great day it was! Hundreds of families came to chat and find out more about the Cruck Cottage and other historic buildings in the area.
Anina had set up tables where children could draw a picture of their favourite building - they were great!
Thanks again to Martin and Anina for inviting us.
Please feel free to copy and share these images as part of your MS Bike ride experience. More images will be added over the next week.

From Dave Gill:
Congratulations to all participants!
It’s my pleasure being associated with the North Carolina Bike MS this year! As time allows, I couldn’t be more pleased continuing to bring my services again in the future!
I’m an Event Photographer centered in Raleigh, delivering captivating images of human emotion, beauty, and connection specializing in weddings and other special festivities. Keep me in mind for your event too!
Over the years I’ve covered stories on assignment concerning the environment, politics, special events, and bicycle races for the AP, UPI, Reuters, McClatchy, and Gannett.
Regarding bicycling, my stories and images have been featured in Pezcyclingnews.com, with further contributions to Cyclingnews.com, Velonews.com, CyclingWeekly.com, Velonews, and Bicycling.
Environment America is a federation of state-based, citizen-funded environmental advocacy organizations. Our professional staff in 23 states and Washington, D.C., combines independent research, practical ideas and tough-minded advocacy to overcome the opposition of powerful special interests and win real results for the environment. Environment America, the new home of U.S. PIRG's environmental work, draws on 30 years of success in tackling environmental problems.
In 2007, the leaders of environmental groups in 23 states joined forces to form Environment America. Together, we’re building on the progress our advocates and activists have made at the state and local level—from laws that promote solar and wind power, to cuts in the pollution that causes global warming, to new protections for millions of acres of wilderness and open space. With grassroots support and action across the country, a team of professional researchers and issue experts, advocates at work in 23 state capitols, more advocates at work in Washington, D.C., a spirit of cooperation and an orientation toward real results, Environment America is providing a powerful new force for progress on the environment in our country.

Typically golf courses in the Palm Springs area 'overseed' in the Fall. The grass that tolerates the heat in the summer turns brown in the winter, so the courses historically cut that grass very short and plant a winter seed on top. The process takes quite a bit of water and with the drought many courses have switched to overseeding only around the greens.
For some reason, no one every talks about the very high particulate pollution that comes from the overseeding process, both from bur cutting the summer grass in the Fall, and then bur cutting the winter grass in the Spring.
