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 Greenpeace thermal airship A.E. Bates flies by Glacier National Park near Babb, Montana on August 4, 2014. 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.

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.

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.
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.
CALACA, PHILIPPINES-- On May 14, 2016, environmental and social groups held a protest in front of the public market and coal power plant in Calaca, Batangas, Philippines on May 14, 2016. They are calling to stop the propose expansion of this coal plant.
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.

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.
Greenpeace USA climbers form a blockade on the Fred Hartman Bridge in Baytown, Texas shutting down the largest fossil fuel thoroughfare in the United States ahead of the third Democratic primary debate in nearby Houston. The climbers are preventing the transport of all oil and gas through the Houston Ship Channel, home to the largest petrochemical complex in the United States. Their action is a call to the country’s present and future leaders to imagine a world beyond fossil fuels and embrace a just transition to renewable energy.
JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA -- Saturday, May 14th, 2016. Activists from 350.org converged at the Zoo Lake this morning and walked to the Gupta's residence where they demand a just response to climate change and deliver a coffin full of coal symbolizing the end of coal during a Break Free action.
