From the toxic waste created by the extreme extraction of tar sands destroying indigenous communities in Canada, to toxins created by the BP Whiting refinery producing sacrifice communities in the Greater Chicago area, to the resultant catastrophic effect on our climate, the urgent need for a just transition away from fossil fuels to a 100% renewable energy economy is abundantly clear.
Environmental activist and Seattle City Councilman Mike O'Brien is approached by the Coast Guard as he and other activists protested as Shell's Drilling Rig Polar Pioneer leaves Seattle's Elliott Bay bound for the Arctic on June 15, 2015. The Polar Pioneer is one of two drilling vessels heading towards the Arctic for Shell this year. The second, the Noble Discoverer, is one of the oldest drill ships in the world. Photo by Greenpeace
The skies over China have darkened in the past five decades thanks to a nine-fold increase fossil-fuel emissions. In this image, a thick plume of smog makes its way across the Yellow Sea towards Korea. NOx, which is released when fossil fuels are burned, contributes to the formation of smog. In addition, NOx can be redeposited to surface waters through a process known as atmospheric deposition.

Greenpeace activist John Noel protests a meeting between President Trump and oil executives at the White House where they plan to ask for taxpayer bailout. Executives from at least seven US oil companies are expected to meet with Donald Trump at the White House to discuss relief for the oil industry. Expected to attend are: ExxonMobil CEO Darren Woods, Chevron CEO Mike Wirth, Occidental Petroleum CEO Vicki Hollub, and former Continental Resources CEO Harold Hamm, Energy Transfer CEO Kelcy Warren, Phillips66 CEO Greg Garland (who is also chairman of the American Petroleum Institute), and Devon Energy CEO David Hager.
The Consumers Energy Campbell Complex is located on a 2,000-acre site along the Lake Michigan shoreline near West Olive, Mich. Campbell first began providing electricity in 1962 and produces 1,440 megawatts of power, enough to meet the electric needs of a million people. The Campbell Complex has affiliated environmental enhancement programs or projects on 1,600 of the site’s 2,000 acres.

Jane Fonda is back in the streets with Fire Drill Fridays for an in-person rally in DC! We’re coming together in the heart of America’s halls of power to sound the alarm that we’re facing a crisis and politicians better start acting like it. We need President Biden to declare a climate emergency, and we need our elected officials from across the country to open their eyes and see our house is on fire.

Joe Yip, a researcher in the Office of Research and Development at the Department of Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory, utilizes laser-based Rayleigh light scattering to measure flame density and speed over a flat flame burner. Oxy-fuel combustion, using oxygen in place of air with diluents such as steam or carbon dioxide, can reduce pollutant emissions in advanced power cycles using gas turbines. To support the development of oxy-fuel power systems, NETL is measuring laminar flame speeds for relevant oxy-fuel-diluent mixtures for which prior data is scarce.

ANACORTES, WASHINGTON, USA -- Friday May 13th, 2016. Activists set up a blockade encampment on the train tracks leading to the oil refineries in Anacortes. Thousands of people began converging in Anacortes, WA, as part of the global climate mobilization Break Free. Many are now risking arrest by engaging in peaceful civil disobedience to highlight the moral urgency of immediate action to combat climate change. Anacortes is home to two fossil fuel refineries owned by Shell and Tesoro. These refineries are the largest unaddressed source of carbon pollution in the Northwest and they refine 47% of all the gas and diesel used in the region. Break Free Pacific Northwest events will continue throughout the weekend.
Break Free 2016 is a week of coordinated direct actions that target the most dangerous fossil fuel projects, in an effort to keep coal, oil and gas in the ground and accelerate a just transition to 100% renewable energy. Thousands of people all over the planet are putting their bodies on the line to send a message to polluters and politicians that we need to break free from fossil fuels now.

The Chemical Looping Reactor in Morgantown, West Virginia. In CLC systems, oxygen is introduced to the system via oxidation-reduction cycling of an oxygen carrier. The oxygen carrier is usually a solid, metal-based compound. It may be in the form of a single metal oxide, such as an oxide of copper, nickel, or iron, or a metal oxide supported on a high-surface-area substrate (e.g., alumina or silica), which do not take part in the reactions. For a typical CLC process, combustion is split into separate reduction and oxidation reactions in multiple reactors. The metal oxide supplies oxygen for combustion and is reduced by the fuel in the fuel reactor, which is operated at elevated temperature. Chemical looping combustion (CLC) is considered a “transformational” technology with the potential to meet program cost and performance goals.
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.

Today the Illawarra Knitting Nannas Against Gas visited Malcolm Turnbull's Edgecliff office. He was not there and had not answered the two simple questions the Nannas had left him earlier.
1. Do you support a ban on CSG mining in drinking water catchments?
2. Would you move Federal legislation to enact a ban on CSG mining in drinking water catchments?
Though the Nannas staged a peaceful knit in, his staff did feel it necessary to call the police.

June 15-16, 2015, Ovnhallen (The Kiln) - CBS, Porcelænshaven 20, Copenhagen, Denmark
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.

Activists deliver over 84,000 individual Greenpeace petition signatures to JPMorgan Chase’s headquarters in New York City. The petition asks that they listen to the voices of the people and stop funding tar sands expansion, one of the dirtiest sources of energy on the planet.
The Greenpeace Airship A.E. Bates flies over the Decker Coal Mine in Decker, Montana on August 7, 2014. The owner of the Decker coal mine, Ambre Energy, is seeking to expand its access to publicly owned coal as part of its controversial proposals to export coal through Oregon and Washington. Greenpeace is calling on Interior Secretary Sally Jewell to stop selling publicly owned coal at subsidized prices. Photo by Greenpeace

Washington DC, November 15 2016. A diverse crowd of around three thousand fired up activists variously affiliated with over a hundred different groups gathered in front of offices occupied by the Army Corps Of Engineers (and other agencies including the GAO...) for a rally and march to protect the midwestern plains water and land that rightfully belongs in perpetuity to Native American people. A core group of speakers travelled here from the Dakotas to lead the action. There is some slim hope that President Obama can be persuaded in the waning days of his presidency to refuse 'right of way' on Federal lands for the Dakota Access Pipeline. There was a sad, poignant vibe to the event because the DAPL poisonous snake will almost certainly be 'fast tracked' by the incoming Trump administration. President Elect Donald J. Trump is an investor in the pipeline. The company largely responsible for the pipeline project is headed by a very rich Texan folk music enthusiast/opportunist/OK guitar player who seems to have little understanding of what most folk musicians are trying to express.
