A vintage Dutch postage stamp issued in 1986 to celebrate the completion of the Delta Works (Deltawerken), a massive sea defense system in the Netherlands. Designed by Kees Nieuwenhuijzen, the stamp features a collage representing the protection of the land. On the left, it shows stylized figures standing hand-in-hand against the sea, while the right side depicts the iconic Oosterscheldekering (Eastern Scheldt storm surge barrier).
"...Supererò le correnti gravitazionali,
lo spazio e la luce per non farti invecchiare.
TI salverò da ogni malinconia,
perché sei un essere speciale ed io avrò cura di te...
io sì, che avrò cura di te."
San Ramon Valley Fire District Engine 32A (E32A), a "Type 1" Hi-Tech EVS pumper built on a Spartan Gladiator chassis, sits parked outside Station 38 near the District's Administration Building. This rig is an older Hi-Tech than the others in the SRVFPD's fleet (it's a 1994 model I believe).

Under Indonesian law, areas that qualify for protection are based on slope (>40%), sensitive soil types, elevation (above 2000m), and peat land (>3m), thereby preventing any man-made development within most of the Sumatran orangutan’s habitat. Certain sensitive soil types, including deep peat, buffer zones along river banks and around other water sources, and the upper reaches of water catchment areas.

De Zandmotor (The Sand Engine) is an innovative way of coastal protection and coastal maintenance. Nature helps us in protecting against the sea. Wind, waves and currents will spread the sand over the next twenty years along the coast between Hoek van Holland and Scheveningen. The new send on the beach and broader dunes will protect the city of The Hague against sea level rise and it will create extra space for nature and recreation. And above all: it created a beautiful coastal landscape.
Marine Environment Protection Committee meets
IMO's Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) is meeting for its 69th session (18-22 April). Among the items on a busy agenda, the MEPC is set to consider the implementation of the International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments, which is close to reaching entry into force criteria. There will be further work on the energy efficiency of international shipping, including the development of the data collection system for ships' fuel consumption.
Following the adoption of the Paris Climate Change Agreement, and building on the discussions at its previous session, the MEPC will further consider a proposal for a work plan to define international shipping's contribution to the global efforts to address climate change. A proposal from the Philippines to designate the marine area known as the Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park, located between the islands of the Philippines and North Borneo, as a Particularly Sensitive Sea Area (PSSA), will be put forward.
The MEPC will also consider establishing an effective date for the application of the Baltic Sea Special Area under MARPOL Annex IV (Prevention of Pollution by Sewage from Ships). The MEPC was opened by IMO Secretary-General Kitack Lim and is being chaired by Mr. Arsenio Dominguez (Panama).
