Stonehenge is a prehistoric monument in Wiltshire, England, two miles (3 km) west of Amesbury. It consists of a ring of standing stones, each around 13 feet (4.0 m) high, seven feet (2.1 m) wide, and weighing around 25 tons. The stones are set within earthworks in the middle of the most dense complex of Neolithic and Bronze Age monuments in England, including several hundred tumuli (burial mounds).
Archaeologists believe it was constructed from 3000 BC to 2000 BC. The surrounding circular earth bank and ditch, which constitute the earliest phase of the monument, have been dated to about 3100 BC. Radiocarbon dating suggests that the first bluestones were raised between 2400 and 2200 BC, although they may have been at the site as early as 3000 BC.
One of the most famous landmarks in the United Kingdom, Stonehenge is regarded as a British cultural icon.[6] It has been a legally protected Scheduled Ancient Monument since 1882, when legislation to protect historic monuments was first successfully introduced in Britain. The site and its surroundings were added to UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites in 1986. Stonehenge is owned by the Crown and managed by English Heritage; the surrounding land is owned by the National Trust.

Great artwork from the Advertising School Sir JJ Institute of Applied Art, Mumbai, India showing to possible end of a journey on our planet. The left side of each image shows, for most of us an unrealistic, paradise. Communicating the contrast at both sides is great way to tell the story.
The ads are made for the Central Pollution Control Board from the Ministery of Environment and Forest in India.

Philadelphia
Development in Philly is out of control, worsening conditions for working class people & the environment. Hundreds of community activists took to the streets to set the tone for Philly's 2023 election: anyone running for mayor or city council better have policy solutions for ensuring long-term, working class residents have a place in this city and that Philly is truly tackling and prepared for the climate crisis.
The march was organized by community groups fighting for land justice across our city, including Philly Thrive, Sunrise Movement, VietLead, Save UCTownhomes, Save the Meadows, Cobbs Creek EJ, and more!

Inkberry holly grows in a rain garden that traps and filters stormwater runoff pollution at Korn Street Park in Kingston, Pa., on Sept. 10, 2024. The 2,500-square-foot rain garden was designed to hold 17,000 gallons of stormwater and was installed in 2020 as the first of 52 pollution reduction projects funded by the Wyoming Valley Sanitary Authority’s stormwater fee in order to meet federal mandates to reduce nitrogen, phosphorus and sediment pollution reaching the Chesapeake Bay. The work was advanced by a 2017 grants from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) Small Watershed Grants (SWG) and Innovative Nutrient and Sediment Reduction (INSR) programs.

Our buildings are a reflection of us. The whims of fashion and the influence of technology weather with time and relent to use, the elements or wear and tear—if we let them. Whether abandoned or painstakingly maintained, the state of the environment we inhabit or leave behind provides a strong indication of what our society values. An influential few made this; we all live here. The fact that a diverse population collectively finds a place to call home shows that where we live is more than who built our buildings.
U.S. Embassy officers cleaned up bottles, tires, Christmas lights, lawn furniture and other trash that had washed ashore at Ambassador Nolan's residence. An hour of volunteer clean-up effort resulted in more than 25 garbage bags full of trash.

Melbourne, Environment Victoria and friends
Over the coming few weeks, as the price on pollution is debated in Parliament, Victorian communities will come together to take part in the Earth Relay - a series of actions to symbolise support for action on climate change.
Like the passage of the Olympic flame to the site of the Olympic Games, communities across Victoria will be passing a human sized earth globe from suburb to suburb and town to town. And after travelling across the state, the dome will be taken to Parliament House, Canberra to send the Victorian community’s message of hope for the future.
So get involved in this important moment in history. Hop here to find out when the when the Earth Relay is coming to a suburb or town near you > www.environmentvictoria.org.au/earth-relay

Many people confuse the anole with the chameleon because both can change color. The same anole can be brown or green, depending on its surroundings and mood. When two anoles meet, they usually turn green and puff up their throats; if one doesn’t back down, a fight will sometimes follow. Photo courtesy National Park Service.
