Carbon must take a dive

As sea levels rise, ten humanitarian and environmental groups in Western
Australia combined forces this past weekend and called on the Australian
Government to take the plunge and go below 350.
Launching the 10-10-10 global week of action on climate change, more
than 7300 other events are underway in 188 countries during this week in
the largest ever global demonstration on climate change.
To draw attention to this global movement, Oxfam Australia and World
Vision, came together with WWF-Australia, Tear, The Oaktree Foundation,
The One World Centre, The Conservation Council, Save Our Marine Life,
Environment House and the Anti-Nuclear Association of WA.
The 5 humanitarian and 5 environmental agencies dived with signs bearing
the numbers 3, 5 and 0 which combine to make up the number 350, the
maximum level of atmospheric carbon in parts per million (ppm) that
scientists say is the upper limit to ensure climate safety. The current
global level is 390ppm and rising, and carbon levels must take a dive to
stop the catastrophic effects of climate change.
Droughts, floods and storms are causing havoc with people's ability to
grow food which is seeing lives and livelihoods being destroyed in poor
countries. These countries have not caused the problem and do not have
the financial resources to adapt are suffering most.
It is crucial that rich countries help by reducing their emissions to
bring atmospheric carbon levels below 350ppm, as well as supporting
projects to help communities adapt to the devastating impacts of climate
change.
We know that runaway climate change will imperil coral reefs and
forests, and habitats across the planet, accelerating extinctions. For
the sake of people and nature, we need national and international
action, including a price on carbon.

Hi guys,
It has been what? 2 years since my last upload...
A lot has changed in these years - my main focus has been in front of the camera as a fashion content creator, until a week ago.
After many many years shooting with my Canon 1000D, I decided it was time for a change and so it happened; I treated myself on a Canon 6D Mark l. Later that week I decided to go for the lens I have always wanted: EF 24-70 f2.8 ll UMS.
Took it for a try this weekend in the gorgeous tulip fields. Back on my knees and being out there made me realise how much I have missed it.
Hopefully more uploads soon!
Have a great evening!

Dr. Michael Bröning has presented his book and moderated the discussion, The Politics of Change in Palestine: State-Building and Non-Violent Resistance.
“The Politics of Change in Palestine” discusses these changes. The book contradicts the prevalent myth that incompetent, corrupt, and uncompromising Palestinian decision-makers are responsible for the lasting stalemate in the Middle-East Peace Process. The book highlights recent political developments in Palestine that fundamentally redefine important parameters of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. These include the re-invention of Hamas, reforms within the Fatah movement, state-building efforts of the Palestinian Authority and the surge of non-violent resistance.

Shortly about me:
It’s my passion to create stories and bring back pictures of events, people and places that are rarely seen. It’s a combination of exploration, exposition and artistry that together create a life of adventure and excitement.
In my work it is imperative for me that information be accurate and the images must be respectful of the subject and viewer. My goal is to combine creativity with practicality to capture the best possible images to document events, tell a story, meet the picture editor's deadlines.

Two years ago the Holuhraun Eruption changed the face of the earth in Iceland. It also changed me. I first shot aerial images from a helicopter. I saw for the first time huge amounts of molten rocks bubbling in a gigantic lava lake. You just sit there and watch these amazing forces of nature. And you can't let go. Even 2 years after this event my mind is still longing for seeing such a spectacle again.

How times of have changed again. This is the coach of the opposition team Nick played on saturday. His team won. But, that is a side issue. I had one woman coach when I played footie and she certainly did not look like this woman. If my coach had have looked liked this I am sure it would have had a more positive outcome on how I played. This woman, unfortunately is a rariety. More power to her.

Climate Corporate Governance for Financial Institutions - Building resilience to climate change risk
During the past decade, with extreme weather causing hundreds of USD billions of
losses per year and the changing climate intensifying the adverse effects of wasteful
practices, environmental considerations have overtaken economic concerns as the
main sources of global risk, according to the World Economic Forum.
Financial regulators and the European Union are responding with recommendations
and guidance on the disclosure of climate-related financial risks to help integrate
sustainability into investor portfolio management. Credit rating agencies are
developing new ways to anticipate how climate-related risks could impact businesses
and financial institutions.
But is this enough?
To assess whether the financial sector is adequately equipped, the EBRD is brought
together representatives from financial institutions to share their practical experience
of the ‘what’ and ‘how’ of climate-related risk management.
The event discuseed ways to achieve an effective investor-led climate response
via climate corporate governance, standards-based climate finance, climate risk
management, climate-related capital market products.

Change is a timely portrait of Barack Obama made from 3700 circulated coins. Beyond the visual pun, the work evokes a sense of historical significance. Although the piece is made entirely of coins, it could be considered a portrait made from portraits. Each coin is carefully arranged with the presidential portrait facing out. This subtle detial suggests that Obama is made from the same qualities as Lincoln, Jefferson, Washington, and Roosevelt. Like Obama's grassroots fundraising campaign, sculptor Andy Magee collected all of the coins for this sculpture from friends and colleagues - who generously emptied their pockets and coin jars for the artwork.
An image of Change was featured in TIME Magazine's Person of the Year issue, in December 2008, and in COINage Magazine in March 2009.
There has been lots of change underway in Bradford in recent years, most of it slow progress due to the economic downturn.

This is where it all happened. Just one cut from ear to ear, then they pulled the skin back behind my head and removed a palm sized section of skull. They then parted the hemispheres of my brain and went down the middle to my brain stem to remove the tumour. Now it has all healed but the plate they put in has sunk somewhat, leaving me with a rather large crater. Which is useful for collecting water. Or as an ashtray.
