Solar Geoengineering: Weighing Costs of Blocking the Suns Rays
2014-01-09 15:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Yale Environment 360: In 1991, Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines erupted in one of the largest volcanic blasts of the 20th century. It spat up to 20 million tons of sulfur into the upper atmosphere, shielding the earth from the suns rays and causing global temperatures to drop by nearly half a degree Celsius in a single year. Thats more than half of the amount the planet has warmed Studies have shown that such a strategy would be powerful, feasible, fast-acting, and cheap. due to climate change in 130 years. Now...

Catching Some Rays in California, and Storing Them
2013-12-24 03:40:15| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
New York Times: Solar power is growing so fast in California with installations by customers increasing tenfold since 2006 that it is turning the states power system upside down. In a twist that is being closely watched by power companies around the country, California utilities will install massive banks of batteries and other devices to store the power surplus created by solar panels in the afternoon, when the suns rays are strong. The batteries are then to begin discharging power into Californias electric...

Scientists will use cosmic rays to peer inside Fukushima reactor
2013-08-23 13:31:50| Extremetech
Muons created in the upper atmosphere will let researchers from Los Alamos National Labs see the state of the heavily shielded core of the damaged and dangerous Fukushima reactor. The researchers are using cosmic rays to create what is essentially an X-ray of the core's damage.
