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".

Leco CS744 - Oxygen/Nitrogen by Inert Gas Fusion Infrared and Thermal Conductivity Detection
The Leco CS744 is designed for routine measurement of carbon and sulfur in primary steels, ores, finished metals, and other inorganic materials. Additional features—such as a high-frequency combustion furnace, improved IR cell design, rugged design, and available automation assists in acquiring an accurate analysis of carbon and/or sulfur.

Trace amounts of carbon, sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen can make a big difference in the structure and properties of many alloys. Combustion analysis can be used to measure the concentration of carbon and sulfur in a number of different ores and metals. A small amount of the sample is first combusted in oxygen. The amount of carbon
dioxide and sulfur dioxide produced from the reaction is then measured with an infrared detector.
A similar approach is applied to measure the amount of nitrogen and oxygen present in each sample. The sample is placed inside a graphite crucible and heated rapidly. Oxygen present in the molten sample reacts readily with the graphite crucible, and the amount of carbon dioxide formed from the combustion reaction is measured with an infrared detector and used to calculate the amount of oxygen originally present in the sample. Nitrogen gas escaping from the molten sample is measured with a separate thermal conductivity detector, as it is invisible to the infrared detector.
By measuring the composition of alloys down to parts-per-million levels, it is possible to work out how changes to ingredients and processing conditions affect their composition.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. The disease was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan, the capital of China's Hubei province, and has since spread globally, resulting in the ongoing 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic.

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.

An Aerial view shows workers assessing damage on the scene of a crude oil train derailment in Watertown, Wisconsin on November 9, 2015. The 110-car Canadian Pacific train derailed about 200pm on November 8, 2015 forcing the evacuation of about 35 homes in the area. A total of 13 cars derailed and one car was punctured, spilling less than 1,000 gallons of crude oil, according to the company. The issue of trains filled with crude oil and the potential for explosions has emerged as a concern for residents who live in bigger cities. Photo by Allen Fredrickson

The airship flew with banners reading, "Coal exports fuel climate change" and "Keep our coal in the ground" to highlight the risks of coal export and mining. Coal mining companies are trying to boost exports of publicly owned coal in Montana and Wyoming to Asia, which would mean more carbon pollution and disruption to the environment and communities in the Western United States.
