IMG_1625_p.jpg A geothermal energy project by Newcastle University, funded by the Dept of Energy and Climate Change. This project involves drilling 6,000 feet beneath Newcastle, on the site of the old Newcastle Brown Brewery. At this depth, the geothermally heated water is 80 degrees C. The plan is for this renewable energy source to provide space heating for a shopping centre and University buildings.

IMG_0660_p.jpg Following the warmest and driest April on record, moorland fires broke out across the UK. Ogden Moor near Wainstalls above Halifax was one of many victims. Several square Km of moorland burned for four days. The blaze was tackled by fire fighters, but despite their efforts the blaze destroyed valuable moorland habitat, killing mammals and amphibians and destroying nesting birds nests. The wind farm was also closed down for a number of days as the blades were a danger to the helicopters fighting the blaze with aerial water drops. This shot shows fire fighters and water board engineers who were helping to tackle the blaze.

IMG_8355_protective clothing.jpg Workers prepare a specialist grout to cement a transition piece onto a monopile on the jack up barge, Goliath on the Walney Offshore windfarm project, off Barrow in Furness, Cumbria, UK. When finished it will have 102, 3.6 MW turbines, giving a total capacity of the Walney project of 367.2 MW, enough to power 320,000 homes. The rotor diameter of the turbines is 107m for Walney 1 and 120 m for Walney 2. The wind farm is owned and constructed by Dong Energy.

IMG_1340_beeswax.jpg A beehive in Cockermouth, Cumbria, UK that has been infected and damaged by the Varoa mite. The Varoa mite is a parasite of honeybees that has increased hugely in recent years as a result of milder winters caused by climate change. The mite attacks both the adults and brood bees, sucking their blood and causing damage. Many bee colonies around the world, have collapsed due to the mite, deeply worrying as honeybees are resposible for pollinating the majority of food crops that humas rely on for food.

The drought in Victoria lead to catastrophic bush fires in 2009. on Balck Saturday the temperatures reached 47 degrees centigrade. Catastrophic forest fires left 173 people dead with 7000 left homeless. Such conditions are likely to become more common due to climate change.
