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.

Activists seeking to pressure U.S. politicians to fight climate change blocked major traffic hubs in the U.S. capital on Monday, drawing attention to a U.N. Climate Summit that will be attended by leaders from about 60 countries. Crowds gather around a sailboat sits blocking traffic in a DC intersection during morning rush hour.

is the message for the entrance to the "Petroleum World" exhibit at Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry. My family was UNIFORMLY APPALLED by this exhibit, which fed three year olds the message "Oil makes toys and toys are fun. Isn't oil fun?" Global warming and global politics made no appearance, neither did carcinogens or non-biodegradable garbage. Neither did much information on oil, how it works, how it is refined, or even how the toys were made. This museum was -"edu-tainment" without the "edu."
Update, May 26th 2009.
I recently wrote a complaint to the museum, and quickly received this response.
Emily:
Thanks for your feedback on Petroleum Planet. The Museum does have plans to renovate this exhibit space in the near future and offer guests a new experience on energy and the environment. We are very focused on environmental education. I'm not sure if you had the opportunity to see Smart Home: Green + Wired and Earth Revealed during your trip here (I know it's a big Museum!), but these are just a few ways we're engaging our visitors in environmental/earth sciences and green living topics. We also offer two earth-focused Learning Labs for students on Field Trips: Renewable Energy --- Cars of the Future and Testing the Waters.
We look forward to your next visit. This fall we're opening an exhibit on health and wellness called YOU! The Experience. You won't want to miss it.
I will forward your e-mail to our exhibit team.
Best regards,
Hilary Fruin

WELLS FARGO DIVEST! A 'Block Party' on Wells Fargo's doorstep
July 14, 2023
San Francisco, CA
6 Climate Activists were arrested, cited and released on Friday as part of an action to demand a stop to the bank’s reckless funding of fossil fuels. Activists locked down in front of Wells Fargo's security gates, blocking the entrance and forcing the branch to close.
Outside, many local climate groups came together with live music, street theater, wheat paste and to paint a giant mural reading "WELLS FARGO--HEAT, FLOODS, FIRE--DIVEST FROM OIL & GAS".
The Wabash River Coal Gasification Repowering Project is one of two demonstrations of advanced integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) technology in the United States. It was selected by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) in September of 1991 as a Round IV Demonstration Project for the Clean Coal Technology (CCT) Program. The IGCC plant is a repowering facility in the sense that it was built to replace a dated conventional pulverized coal power plant. Construction began in July of 1993 near West Terre Haute, Indiana, followed by operational startup in November of 1995. The project demonstration phase was completed and turned over for commercial operation in December 1999. In 2005, the plant was re-started under new management. sgSolutions LLC (SGS) owns and operates the Syngas Plant, whereas Wabash Valley Power owns the power generation portion of the plant, which is operated by Duke Energy.

NETLâs Severe Environment Corrosion Erosion Facility in Albany studies how new and old materials will stand up to new operating conditions.
Work done in the lab supports NETLâs oxy-fuel combustion oxidation work, refractory materials stability work, and the fuels program, in particular the hydrogen membrane materials stability work, to determine how best to upgrade existing power plants.

The CT Scanner Laboratory provides imaging data that can be used for computer simulations, economic evaluations, and site characterizations. The scanner generates a three-dimensional (3-D) image of an object's structure by collecting and combining many 2-D X-ray images. Coal, rock, and other geological samples are imaged to measure how liquids, gases, and solids flow through them, or to measure other rock-fluid phenomena, such as how CO2 is adsorbed or absorbed in coal cores. The measurements provide information on the actual distribution of minerals and fluids inside samples, rather than providing merely average measurements.
Refinery Corridor Healing Walk #3
Benicia to Rodeo, California June 11, 2017 - 3rd of 4 walks this year along the Refinery Corridor in the East Bay. Organized by Idle No More SF Bay, this 10.5 mile walk started in Benicia, home of Valero's Benicia Refinery, crossed the Carquinez Bridge and then passed thru the heart of Conoco-Phillips 66 “San Francisco” refinery.
Within minutes of the early morning start, walkers had the extremely rare opportunity to observe 2 Bald Eagles fishing and hanging out along the bay. And then, almost as if scripted, what started as a bright, sunny day turned increasingly windy and as the walkers approached the Conoco-Phillips 66 refinery, dark, menacing clouds formed, complete with lightning and eventually rain.
These walks have been bringing native people, local communities and those concerned about the health of the planet together to envision a healthier future, since 2014.
The next walk (July 16, 2017) will cover the section of the Refinery Corridor from Rodeo to the Chevron Richmond refinery. It will be the very last of a total of 16 walks that have happened over a period of 4 years.
These walks have done an outstanding job of connecting communities and issues and providing insights and ways to connect to the fierce battles being waged in our own back yards for "Clean Air, Water & Soil
Safe Jobs, Roads, Railroads & Waterways
A Vibrantly Healthy Future for All Children
A Just Transition to Safe & Sustainable Energy"
On Sunday March 2nd, over 1,000 students and young people marched from Georgetown University to the White House for a massive youth sit-in against the Keystone XL pipeline.

The GAIA Computational Facilities enable real-time collaboration among scientists at NETL’s three research sites (Albany, OR; Morgantown, WV; and Pittsburgh, PA). Researchers use the facilities to conduct computer-based analytical work, and access common tools, data, and software in a coordinated environment. Real-time video connectivity allows multiple researchers from the different sites to collaborate remotely.
