Drill rig near Dad, Wyoming.
The expansion of natural gas wells drilled during Wyoming's most recent energy industry boom continues with more than 2,000 projected wells in the Wamsutter gas field to be operational by 2020. Advances in drilling technology now allow grouping of multiple wells on a single drilling pad, thus reducing the footprint upon the land. Meanwhile, BLM expects the expansion in energy development to continue in the Red Desert including the Jack Morrow Hills of 600,000 acres near South Pass. Moreover, a ongoing target for exploratory drilling includes Adobe Town, a proposed wilderness area in the southern Red Desert.

The Three Gorges Dam is a massive hydroelectric dam and is the world's largest power station with a capacity of 22,500 MW. It is located on the Yangtze River near the city of Yichang in Hubei province, central China. Construction started in 1994 and was completed in 2012. Made of concrete and steel, the dam is 2,335m long and 180m high. The reservoir created behind the dam stretches for 660km with a maximum depth of 110m.
As well as producing electricity, the dam is intended to increase the Yangtze River's shipping capacity (via a huge shipping lock) and reduce the potential for floods downstream. The Chinese government regards the project as a historic engineering, social and economic success. However, the dam has been controversial, flooding archaeological and cultural sites, displacing 1.3 million people, and causing significant ecological changes.

Water Safety Day - Safe4Summer
The initiative is part of the Government’s mission to restore and strengthen local policing in communities and reduce or prevent anti-social behaviour (ASB). As part of this, there will be a greater visibility of Greater Manchester Police (GMP) officers and partners as we work together across crime hot spot areas.
Kate Green, Deputy Mayor for Safer and Stronger Communities, said: "We’re determined to ensure Greater Manchester is a safer place for everyone. The Safer Streets Summer Initiative is a testament to our dedication to reducing crime and enhancing the quality of life for our residents.
“By continuing to work closely with our communities and partners, we aim to create an environment where everyone feels safe and can enjoy not only the summer but all year round and every year. We’ll be working hard to ensure our town centres are safe and welcoming for all.”
Assistant Chief Constable Matt Boyle, GMP’s lead for Local Policing, said: “Our neighbourhoods are negatively impacted by various crimes such as the illegal use of e-bikes, drug dealing and other ASB.
“As a force, it’s our mission to listen to our community’s concerns and take action where crime is committed. Our proactive approach to tackling neighbourhood crime has meant that since 2021, we’ve reduced burglary by a third and vehicle crime by a quarter, thanks to the dedication of our local neighbourhood teams, working closely with partners across the region.
“Over the summer months, they will be focusing on increasing engagement with our communities to listen and respond to their concerns. Residents and business owners will also see an increase in the visibility of officers and partners, as we work together to ensure a safe summer for all. This isn’t about trying to spoil people’s fun over the summer months, it is making sure everyone can enjoy themselves without feeling unsafe or being hurt.
“We welcome the Home Office initiative, which perfectly aligns to the neighbourhood policing model our force implemented locally two years ago. Safe4Summer is the perfect opportunity to highlight the strength of our partnerships in Greater Manchester, and our determination to minimise crime and disorder and to ensure Greater Manchester is a safer and more desirable place for all.”
TravelSafe Partnership Manager at Transport for Greater Manchester, Kate Green, said: “While the vast majority of people using the Bee Network do so safely and responsibly, we know that crime and anti-social behaviour increases over school holidays, and that is not something we will tolerate.
“We work hard every day to keep people safe, whether that’s through our engagement programme or the many proactive operations that take place. We will have an increased presence across the Bee Network to prevent and deter incidents, helping people to travel and enjoy their summer safely and with confidence.”
In 2023, Greater Manchester Police made a commitment that every district ward has a named local police officer, and we would keep communities informed through our use of the community messaging service, Bee in the Loop, which provides the latest news on events and incidents straight to your email inbox.
In April 2025, we welcomed the opportunity to further strengthen our neighbourhood offer, with an increase in numbers of neighbourhood officers by 176, to help GMP to continue to deliver in tackling crime and working with partners and communities to keep our streets safe.

Thousands turn out in Melbourne to support a price on pollution
Saturday, 12 March 2011
With just one weekʼs notice, 7,500 Melbournians converged on the cityʼs Treasury Place this morning to demonstrate their support for swift and effective action to reduce greenhouse pollution.
“Australians donʼt want our parliamentarians thinking that a vocal minority of negative naysayers speak for Australia – so we took to the street and made our voice heard,” GetUp National Director Simon Sheikh said.
“This is the year to put a price on the biggest polluting industries, and use that money to invest in clean energy, and helping lower-income families adjust to.”
The rally was called for to counter an anti-carbon tax protest being conducted on the other side of Melbourne, outside Prime Minister Gillardʼs electoral office in Werribee. That protest is estimated to have involved just 150 people.
The message out of the pro-action rally is a resounding “yes” to putting a limit and price on pollution, and investing in a rapid transition to a clean energy economy.
Australian Conservation Foundation Climate Change Campaigner Claire Maries said, “With just a weeksʼ notice, the people of Melbourne have come out in force to demonstrate their support for action on climate change – starting with a price on pollution.”
“Australians have been waiting for four years for the Labor Government to deliver its promises to take action on climate change,” Kelly OʼShannessy, the CEO of Environment Victoria said. “They have marched in their tens of thousands, and todayʼs crowd is a drop in the ocean of support across the country for putting a limit
and price on pollution”
“We hope that all members of parliament heed very clearly our message today,” Ellen Sandell, Director of the Australian Youth Climate Coalition said. “Australians are saying ʻyesʼ to a limit and price on pollution; saying ʻyesʼ to just transitions and a clean energy future; saying ʻyesʼ to meeting our international responsibilities with pride and goodwill.”

Who Is Believer? Where They Reside? Are They Really?
My Dear Reverend Friends
Greetings
Will COP21 Answer ---Killing, Shooting, Looting, Migrating ----Terroring? Drought, Disaster, Hunger? Dignity, Rights, Peace, Justice, Equality? sasrai.com/cop21-have-or-have-not
First of all question may come
Do we really demand solution?
If so who should be the main actor?
Do the power holders agree to sacrifice their facilities and comfort?
Do the property holders reduce their consumption?
Do the corporate owners agreed to avoid unfair or environment and health hazardous profit making?
Do we all agree to feel proud with less consumption, less property owner, less salaried?
Do we dare to declare that Poorest are most Prestigious Person as she/he is exploiting nature less? I think this is the first step for the `Cultural Revolution’.
The Holy Father makes an urgent appeal to protect “our common home,” to People of all faiths and no faith. And he prescribes bringing “the whole human family together to seek a sustainable and integral development”. Here, he advances the “worldwide ecological movement”, urges for `cultural revolution’.
I like to draw your attention to my thinking that could be described following point.
Who is believer or people of faith? Have we seen someone ignore undue profit, favor, facility, possession being a member of `people of faith’? Present life has become full of Lying, Cheating, Crooking, Deceiving, Exploiting, Flattering, Fornicating etc that breed Tsunami, Cyclone, Drought, Deluge that breed Crop, Deployment loss that breed Rootless, Homeless, Trafficking, Migrant that breed Killing.
There was a wise saying “Greed begets Sin, Sin begets Death” is not a assumption today. Now it’s a scientific truth. But who cares? Each one is running after Profit, Possession and Purchase. No matter someone dying or living, earth on the verge of doomsday.
Why earth community define them believer? Is it just or unjust? If we earth community define someone believer, she/he who acts like a nonbeliever it cannot be justice. Rather it will be an act of corruption promotion.
What are the Characteristics of the believer? Is there any set of indicators regarding believers doing, acting, living, consuming, purchasing, possessing etc. Do we need to declare and publish those again publicly? Does the mass people should specially the children should know clearly how they could be identified as believer or nonbeliever?
Who can certify someone as believer? Is it person him/herself or her/his community or her/his activity? Person declaring him/her believer could be a believer? Is it fair judgment?
Why someone should take them as believer? Based on someone’s saying/statement could we taken him/her as believer? There must be a system to be taken as someone as believer or nonbeliever. Could we establish the system? If not why we should go for classification? Each one is same.
Do the believers can do anything for own profit? I am not sure what the answer is. Unfortunately my observation, learning is people declared rich, big property occupant has little care for others rights, survival. Those rich are profiteer and never ashamed to be the owner of big property keeping other homeless, food less.
Do the believers can do anything for her/his Job Provider? May be person in believe shall say that someone cannot do anything in favor increasing the profit margin of her/his service provider. But what is practice. Person deployed in any firm do everything that increase the profit of the firm no matter that harm environment, ecology, humanity etc. If someone fails to follow the rule she/he will loose job.
Doesn’t the Consumption and Possession Addiction Dominate on the Faith? I am not sure how many corporate owners declared themselves as person of no faith or nonbeliever. But I am sure their employee never think other than the profit margin of the firm. They do earn more and more in exchange of values, belief, ethics, morality, civility or whatever a person obey or compelled to obey being a believer. In the same time they never feel guilty to those unwise, unethical, immoral actions. They believe this is her/his duty to do continue the job. The most highly educated person serving illegal profit her/his own job, comfort. This is also true they got educated by poorer tax and serve the rich to make undue profit.
Accordingly those corporate owners also distribute the preaching to their staffs and mass people sometimes to the students `never tell a lie’ `speak the truth’ `be sincere to your duty’ etc. They quote several preacher and scripture. They only provide advice or preaching but they never follow it. They completely for gotten service to nation,, nature, humanity etc. They got only one motto earn more and more, possess more and more. Sometimes comes to with some charity from which lion portion goes to the highly privileged class.
Unfortunately I am not clear why we should classified person of faith or no faith, believer or nonbeliever. Please be kind to make me clear.

The OASIS project is part of BCIT’s Smart Microgrid system and collects solar energy through photovoltaic (solar) panels, converts it into electrical energy, and then stores it in lithium ion battery banks. An intelligent energy-management system plans the distribution of stored energy to power various campus loads, including electric vehicle charging stations at BCIT’s Burnaby Campus.
“This project is a demonstration of how clean technology can help reduce emissions, protect the environment and generate employment opportunities,” said Carr. “I congratulate the BC Institute of Technology for being early adopters of electric vehicles and their supporting infrastructure. Projects like this are a beacon of innovation in the Canadian clean energy industry, which our government will continue to support.”
The OASIS system components include:
a 500-kWh Li-ion Battery Energy Storage System;
a 250-kW solar photovoltaic (PV) system;
two DC Fast Charge stations for electric vehicles (EV); and
a highly sophisticated energy-management system (EMS).
The EMS performs energy balancing between solar PV system generation, EV charging loads, battery energy storage system and local power distribution grid.

St Michael’s Spurriergate
History
The church dates from the 12th century with elements from the 14th and 15th centuries.
It was reduced in size in 1821 by JB and W Atkinson. The foundation stone of the new wall of the east end was laid by the Rector on 15 January 1821. Work was completed on 16 June 1822.
The tower was lowered between 1966 and 1967. The church closed in 1984 and the building re-opened as a restaurant and cafe in 1989. The conversion retained a small chapel upstairs which is used occasionally for worship.
Clock
The exterior west end of the south wall contains a painted clock face. The clock mechanism inside is inscribed with “Reconstructed by G. J. F. Newey in 1896”.

————————————————————
Once a parish church with a dwindling congregation and few funds, this ancient church was reborn in 1989 as a wonderful atmospheric pace to relax in the heart of York and now offeres people good food, fair trade goods and a listening ear amid the beautiful church features.
Thousands of lowland gorillas, forest elephants and chimpanzees, to name but a few, have their sanctuary in the dense forest along the Sangha river banks. In fact, the forest we manage is part of the Congo Basin, the second largest tropical forest after the Amazon.
Our duty is to preserve it, for local and indigenous inhabitants as well as the global community at large.
In order to do so, we take into account the complexities and demands of the environmental, social, economic and regulatory landscapes that exist around and beyond the forest itself.
