Activist march to the Holiday Inn in Lakewood, Colo., May 12, 2016. The U.S. Bureau of Land Management scheduled a lease sale in a hotel conference room for fossil fuel development on public land. The activists protested outside and attempted to blockade the doors of the sale room to urge the government to keep fossil fuels in the ground . Photo by Robert Meyers
Activists stage a protest outside a local Seattle, Washington hotel early June 17, 2015. Royal Dutch Shell was meeting with shipping industry officials at the hotel. The activists are demanding that Shell stop it's oil drilling especially in the Arctic. This protest is just days as the Shell contracted Polar Pioneer left Seattle bound for the Arctic.

Make an image of unsustainability.

A supermarket giant; a symbol of our nations consumerism, selling precious fossil fuels of which we are running out of. The forecourt is empty a symbol not only of the time we will run out of this commodity, but of the time we will not longer be-able to afford it as prices are pushed sky high.

On July 2, 2014 workers with heavy equipment use a thermal desorption process in what was formerly Steven Jensen's wheat field near Tioga, North Dakota. A Tesoro Logistics LP pipeline spilled more than 20,000 barrels of crude oil into the field in September of 2013. The six-inch pipeline was carrying crude oil from the Bakken shale play to the Stampede rail facility outside Columbus, North Dakota. Thermal desorption involves excavating soil or other contaminated material for treatment in a thermal desorber. To prepare the soil for treatment, large rocks or debris first must be removed or crushed. The smaller particle size allows heat to more easily and evenly separate contaminants from the solid material. The prepared soil is placed in the thermal desorber to be heated. Low-temperature thermal desorption is used to heat the solid material to 200-600ºF to treat VOCs. If SVOCs are present, then high-temperature thermal desorption is used to heat the soil to 600-1000ºF.
Gas collection equipment captures the contaminated vapors. Vapors often require further treatment, such as removing dust particles. The remaining organic vapors are usually destroyed using a thermal oxidizer, which heats the vapors to temperatures high enough to convert them to carbon dioxide and water vapor. At some sites with high concentrations of organic vapors, the vapors may be cooled and condensed to change them back to a liquid form. The liquid chemicals may be recycled for reuse, or treated by incineration. If the concentrations of contaminants are low enough, and dust is not a problem, the vapors may be released without treatment to the atmosphere. Often, treated soil can be used to fill in the excavation at the site. If the treated soil contains contaminants that do not evaporate, such as most metals, they may be disposed of and capped onsite, or transported offsite to an appropriate landfill. Photo by Les Stone

Receding waters around an industrial complex days after Hurricane Laura hit Hackberry. One of the strongest hurricanes ever to strike the U.S., Laura barreled across Louisiana shearing off roofs and killing at least six people while carving a destructive path hundreds of miles inland. Laura’s top wind speed of 150 mph (241 kph) put it among the strongest systems on record in the U.S. Not until 11 hours after landfall did Laura finally lose hurricane status.

Vancouver resident Nancy McLean is led away by police after joining indigenous activists, senior citizens and other activists to block the gates to Kinder Morgan’s construction site on Burnaby Mountain in British Columbia. In solidarity with Coast Salish communities, they aim to show the world that Canada is going down the wrong path on climate and on reconciliation with Indigenous Nations in building this pipeline.
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.

NETL’s High Bay Reaction lab conducts gasification research, testing materials in environments that simulate real-world application. Research is conducted in a large vertical tubular reactor, which examines changes to the gasification process that occur when biomass is mixed with coal prior to gasification. Biomass, like switchgrass and poplar, is a net-zero CO2 emissions material, making coal-biomass mixtures a desirable feedstock for the gasification process. However, the introduction of biomass alters the gasification process. By injecting coal-biomass mixtures into the reactor, the lab can monitor the gasification reactions and collect data that is vital to the development and optimization of using coal-biomass as a feedstock.

NOx from power plants and cars contributes to the formation of smog which can be seen from space. Atmospheric nitrogen is also a significant source of nutrient pollution to the Chesapeake Bay, contributing an estimated 30 percent of total nitrogen.
