Earlier this week, longtime Independent Vermont Senator and avowed socialist Bernie Sanders announced that he will run for the presidency in 2016. Sanders's announcement excited liberal activists wary of another centrist Clinton presidency but puzzled most political pundits , who see no chance for a socialist candidate to do much of anything other than draw a few votes away from the eventual Democratic candidate.

Mongabay: Renowned biologist E.O Wilson, assessing Earth's sixth great extinction now underway, described the future as a shrinking keyhole through which all species must pass as humanity responds to, and hopefully averts catastrophe. A new study published in the journal Science shows that this keyhole could drastically narrow with each degree increase in global temperature due to climate change. The comprehensive study by University of Connecticut ecologist Mark Urban synthesizes data from 131 published...
A Step Change in Electronics Thermal Design: Incorporating ADE and MDA Design Flows
2015-05-04 17:12:09| rfglobalnet Downloads
The main source of heat in electronic equipment is their semiconductor chips, and the temperature sensitivities of these chips presents a challenge in designing cooling mechanisms. Overheating causes the chips to prematurely fail—and failure of only one chip can disable the entire equipment, the higher the chip temperature, the earlier and more certain the failure. As functionality has increased, the associated heat dissipation has escalated to the extent that it is recognized as a potential limitation on the pace of electronics development. Appropriate cooling strategies are needed to prevent overheating, and failure, of critical components.

World headed for irreversible climate change in five years, IEA warns
2015-05-04 06:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: The world is likely to build so many fossil-fuelled power stations, energy-guzzling factories and inefficient buildings in the next five years that it will become impossible to hold global warming to safe levels, and the last chance of combating dangerous climate change will be "lost for ever", according to the most thorough analysis yet of world energy infrastructure. Anything built from now on that produces carbon will do so for decades, and this "lock-in" effect will be the single factor most...

Guardian: Climate change threatens some of Chinas most important infrastructure projects, Chinas top meteorologist has warned, and added that its rate of warming was higher than the global average. Zheng Guoguang, head of Chinas meteorological administration, told Mondays issue of state newspaper the Study Times that the increase in recent weather disasters such as floods, typhoons, droughts and heat waves had a big connection to climate change. Such catastrophes were a threat to big schemes such...
