James O’Toole explains how the UK’s Smart Energy Research Lab is enabling researcher access to smart meter data. With over 21 million smart gas and electric meters now in Great Britain’s homes, there is a growing wealth of half-hourly and daily domestic energy use data available to those who can access it.

Eco-Friendly, Ethically-Sourced Building Materials. Recycling metal rather than using virgin ore helps preserve natural resources and saves energy. Cascade Steel’s electric arc furnace (EAF) is more energy efficient and environmentally-friendly than traditional blast furnaces. RECLAIMED LUMBER. RECYCLED STEEL.

Recent monitoring by uncrewed submarines and satellites, along with ice-sheet modeling, suggest that the Thwaites Glacier and its adjacent smaller twin, the Pine Island Glacier, may already be in a death spiral — eaten up by the intensifying speed and warmth of the powerful Antarctic Circumpolar Current. But offshore wind farms would.

Under the relentless sun in Africa, the birthplace of humanity, every living thing had to find a way to beat the heat. If a widespread power outage hit Phoenix during a heat wave and lasted for days, it could kill thousands and send half the city to the emergency room, according to a recent study. That’s not ethical.”

Food is basically a combination of energy, water and nutrients. Some plants and micro-organisms can make food ‘out of thin air’ by simply rearranging carbon, water and oxygen molecules using energy from the Sun. The trick is to grow plants inside and replace the Sun by red and blue LED lights, making them shine purple.

Solar geoengineering — also called solar radiation management or solar radiation modification — was then and is now a fraught subject. As the climate crisis has escalated, some experts have suggested that drastic measures like solar geoengineering may eventually become necessary and so should be researched now.
