On 12 & 13 July 2016, the UK and Singapore governments hosted the Green Growth & Business Forum (GGBF) for the 2nd time together. Held at MBS Convention Centre during Singapore International Water Week, the GGBF provided a lively platform for over 370 speakers and delegates, many of them international, to debate and discuss the opportunities and challenges to Green Growth particularly in the ASEAN region. Speakers included Singapore’s Senior Minister for State, Dr. Amy Khor, Mr. Morten Kabell, Mayor of Copenhagen, Mr. Soichiro Takashima, Mayor of Fukuoka City and Mr. Michel Jarraud, Secretary-General Emeritus of the World Meteorological Organisation, as well as a wide-range of private business and other organisations who contributed to the debate on how to advance the low carbon economic agenda and make it profitable for all involved.

It seems like summer has ended.

Birds sing, the mountains grow dark --"

Extreme heat due to global warming is drying the wells in rural India

Stan has been left in no doubt that he comes last in the family pack and has been actively encouraged to stay away from Elsie . . . and, of course, as she grew into an active toddler, he wanted to stay away from her and her sudden unpredictable movements. But recently there has been a change of heart as Elsie has been encouraged to approach him gently and stroke him with mummy. On Thursday, on a couple of occasions, I saw Stan nuzzle up to Elsie. Lovely to see . . .
A man and his son show the damage to their home when monsoon floods in 2011 affected 5.4 million people in Sindh and Balochistan provinces. The roof is now propped up dangerously with timber and the walls have collapsed, but the family lack the money and technical skills to rebuild.

I have always loved a photo Steven Douglas took a while ago and I have always wanted to try and take my own version of that shot. There is a field behind my house and last night when I was out there with my dad practicing for the decathlon this weekend I am in, I noticed this dandelion and I knew that I had to take advantage of this opportunity. The next morning I brought a towel and baby powder and flour in a sock to try and puff the "dust" in the air during each photo I took to emphasis the bokeh but there was slight enough breeze that I couldn't get it to work, not even with a little bit of dust.
For editing, I first brought it into Lightroom and did basic adjustments there and de-saturated it a little bit. I then brought it into Photoshop CS and tried to recreate a editing style I found online. It turned out alright and I like the whole over exposed/slightly de-saturated look.
Port Angeles Washington, location Nippon Paper mill. Nippon is
expanding its operations and next year will be making electricity from
burning forest biomass. Not only are the forests at risk, biomass
burning puts nearly three times the Co2 into the atmosphere as coal
burning power plants. This is the wrong time to be increasing the Co2
emissions from industry, this is why we gathered here for this Climate
Impacts Day. Once there were shellfish at this location oysters,
clams, mussels, abalone, and geoduck, the shell fish are all but gone
those that remain contain many poisons.
Passengers can be seen on the platform at Moreton-in-Marsh station after the arrival of the 17.21 from London Paddington. The points of the crossover are already switched ready for the train to reverse from the down to the up line. Saturday, August 22, 2009.
I have put this on photoshop and tried to change the lighting and this was the result. The real one is also here to show you the change.
Seen here, NS V20 brings a large cut of stacks west by Yadkin Rd. The train is on it's way to the CWRY in Suffolk, but will turn on the wye in Petersburg to avoid tying up the mainline for a run-around. This is a first time move, as V14/V07 started running to Portlock instead of the CWRY in Suffolk today. I don't expect these moves to last long, as it adds quite a bit of time and work to the trains runs.
Another angle.I suspect the bottom end has been twisted - others I have seen have an adjustable link here.
This weeks theme is change. I went literal for this one because I couldn't come up with anything creative. My original idea was to to drop money to have it "falling from the sky" but I got outside and really liked the shadows of this little trash can I was going to use to catch my raining money ;-)

Rutgers University research shows that a gift of flowers creates instant delight and guarantees smiles.
This “mood changer” bouquet is the perfect choice to make someone’s day. Green Cymbidium orchids, hot pink roses, orange ranuculus and some trendy succulents are the perfect combination of today’s most popular flowers. Color has a great effect on mood. These bright and cheery hues can’t help but make you smile and when combined together you know you have a “hit.” This bouquet is special also because of the combination of textures. The “mossy” feel of the 'green trick' dianthus contrasts perfectly with the smooth rose petals, creating the perfect background for them and the other flowers in the bouquet. The succulents lend an interest of their own with their bulbous small petals and the orchids catch our attention with their graphic shape and form.
