Jan 29th
Philadelphia, PA (Vocus) October 21, 2009 -–
Two of the world’s leading experts on the ice melting in the Arctic came to town today to tell what they’ve seen, and to demonstrate the implications for the Philadelphia/Camden region. They released the most detailed maps and video animations yet of exactly what could go under water this century in this area.
According to the scientists, the old estimates for rising seas due to global warming were overly optimistic. Fresh data from the poles now indicates between three and four feet or more of rise by the year 2100 or sooner, which will More >

According to Dr. Gordon Hamilton, a research professor at The University of Maine, the old estimates for rising seas due to global warming were overly optimistic. Fresh data from the poles now indicates between three and four feet or more of rise by the year 2100 or sooner, which will have much more of an impact on Miami and the nation, he said. The scientists also provided a graphic demonstration of how high the water could get in just a few decades.

Moontide Lights Homes on the Arctic Tip of Norway
Dec 15th
(PRWEB) September 24, 2003
Homes on the Arctic tip of Norway started getting power from the moon on Sept 20 via a unique sub-sea power station known as ‘The Blue Concept’, at Kvalsund Sound, driven by the rise and fall of the tide…near the town of Hammerfest.
The tidal current caused by the gravitational tug of the moon on the earth, started turning the 10-metre blades of the turbine, which is bolted to the sea-bed to generate electricity for the local grid.
The prototype looks like an underwater windmill and is expected to generate about 700,000 kilowatt hours of non-polluting energy More >
