We marched to BP Refinery strongly for Nayaano-nibiimaang Gichigamiin: The Great Lakes (The Five Freshwater Seas)
These tar sands poses catastrophic health risks to our Mother Earth, people and our wild rice water sheds and homelands as well as our sacred Anishinaabewi-gichigami: Lake Superior (Anishinaabe’s Sea)
We marched and sang along for:
Ininwewi-gichigami: Lake Michigan (Illinois’ Sea) where BP Refinery with their fracked Bakken tanks have invaded with their toxicity greed putting our sacred Gichigamiin at risk for pollution. Our 7th Generations will depend on this water, and clean air to survive. It's our duty to save our children's future. A path we must choose...for our survival.
Our message is clear, "You can't drink oil, no water no life." #LoveWaterNotOil

NETL’s Albany lab specializes in metals research for energy applications, and its Fabrication Laboratory helps develop strong, durable alloys for use in energy production. Researchers in the Lab work on projects for the Department of Energy but have also developed alloys for Shell, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, GE, Pratt & Whittney-Rockedyne (P&W), medical stent applications for Boston Scientific Laboratories, and others.
North Valmy Generating Station. The plant is a 522-megawatt coal-fired power station jointly owned by NV Energy and Idaho Power. Coal for the plant originates from mines in Utah and Wyoming and is delivered to the location by the Union Pacific Railroad. The Valmy facility, which began operation in 1981, is Nevada's last remaining coal-fired plant and is scheduled to be closed and replaced with renewable resources by 2025. Paradise Valley. Near Valmy, Humboldt Co., Nevada.
A group of Democratic Presidential Candidate look alikes visit the Democratic National Committee Headquarters in Washington, D.C. reminding the Committee of the need for a climate debate. Assisting the candidates with the message is Greenpeace staff Irene Kim, left, and John Noel, right.
Tim DeChristopher, area clergy and the larger resistance against the West Roxbury Lateral Pipeline. Approximately a dozen people climbed into the pipeline trenches making the connection between this new fracked gas fossil fuel project and the mass graves being prepared in anticipation of the coming climate fueled Summer heat.
Watch Tim's remarks on our entering "the age of anticipatory mass graves" driven by climate change and ongoing fossil fuel emissions.

A home burns in Pine Canyon during the Lake Fire on August 12, 2020 in Lake Hughes, California. The wildfire exploded to at least 10,000 acres in the first few hours with no containment and destroying several homes and out buildings in Pine Canyon.
The Climate emergency is exacerbating the conditions that make fires more catastrophic. Hotter and drier conditions are extending the wildfire season and contributing to larger fires.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, unhealthy air is a serious public health emergency. Deadly air pollutants are exacerbated by dangerous smoke from these fires that threaten children, elderly populations, pregnant women, unhoused people, outdoor workers, and those with compromised immune systems and preexisting conditions.
Diane Lane and Billie Lee (R) participate in the second California based Fire Drill Friday in the District 15 area of Los Angeles. The area is home to the massive oil and gas fields that are quite literally poisoning and killing people. Speakers include: Gloria Arellanes, a member of the Gabrieleno/Tongva Tribe; Jocelyn Moguel, a strong young leader born and raised in Wilmington, CA.; Doctor Saba Malik, a second year family medicine resident at Harbor UCLA Medical Center; Jovan Houston, an aviation service worker at Los Angeles International Airport and rank and file leader SEIU United Service Workers West; Magali Sanchez-Hall is a long-time resident of Wilmington and an environmental justice activist working alongside environmental justice organizations.
Helping with speaker introductions are: Billie Lee; Lana Parrilla; Sam Waterston; Josh Pence; Rosanna Arquette; Diane Lane; Saffron Burrows; and Lily Tomlin.

Greenpeace activists walked a 15 foot monster to the White House, to call on President Biden to support a Global Plastics Treaty. There is a once in a lifetime opportunity for the United Nations to begin negotiating a Global Plastics Treaty. A decision will be made in February as to whether to start the process. To date the US has opposed the treaty, but Biden’s team is reevaluating its position. Plastics is on the agenda at the G7 in June and it is crucial that the Administration comes out of the gates supporting the development of a strong Global Plastics Treaty.
Actress and director Bonnie Wright, center, joined Greenpeace USA activists including Kate Melges, second from left, at Coca-Cola headquarters after delivering the message accepted by Coca-Cola that more than 585,000 people want the company to abandon single-use plastics.Greenpeace launched a global campaign spanning five continents on Coke in 2017. Greenpeace is urging the company to phase out throwaway plastic, introduce reusable containers and innovative delivery systems, and ensure that all remaining packaging is 100 percent recycled.

Greenpeace and Mosquito Fleet activists block a Kinder Morgan barge from entering the company’s Seattle facility by locking themselves to the pier and displaying banners. "The company's Trans Mountain Pipeline tramples Indigenous rights, threatens communities and their access to clean water, and the increased tanker traffic from the pipeline could decimate marine wildlife including the 76 remaining Southern Resident orcas,” said Greenpeace activist and Seattle resident Samantha Suarez.

NETL’s Analytical Laboratory in Albany is equipped to aid researchers in analyzing materials on a micro scale in simulated environments, which helps to discover properties that can affect processing at the macro scale. This research also ensures that materials used in the energy industry are long-lasting and durable, in turn, keeping maintenance and replacement costs low.

In collaboration with Copenhagen Business School, we organised our second TBLI CONFERENCE NORDIC event, addressing specifically the financial sector in Scandinavia and the UK. The program addressed topics relevant for investors and finance professionals striving to better align profits with impact - with a view across all asset classes.
This event marked the 30th TBLI CONFERENCE held since 1998.
Metallography Laboratory

B26-202
NETL’s Metallography Laboratory focuses on studying physical characteristics of metal and alloys by examining the relationship between a materials composition and structure. The laboratory is capable of preparing polished specimens representative of the true microstructure of materials submitted for study. The laboratory houses a variety of equipment and instrumentation including grinders, polishers, mounting presses, and saws. Advanced microscopy techniques allows for materials analysis at the microscale. Visual and optical microscopic observation of metal surfaces and fractures can reveal valuable information about the crystalline, chemical, and mechanical makeup of these materials.
