20130506_IMG_7409.jpg The Netherlands are notoriously flat and low lying, with 50% of the country lying below sea level. Climate change is leading to both sea level rise and increased flooding, both of which threaten poperties. One solution is to build floating houses, that rise and fall with altering water levels. This shot shows a floating event company.

366W9280.jpg For the Inuit residents of Shishmaref, a tiny island between Alaska and Siberia, climate change is a double whammy. Firstly sea ice that used to envelop the island around late September is now not forming until December. this leaves the island vulnerable to storms that have already washed many houses into the sea, leading to them being referred to as the worlds first refugees from global warming. Other houses have had to be moved back from the edge. Secondly the animals they rely on as part of their subsistance existance are becoming harder to find, as they migrate further north, away from the island.

20120512_IMG_8262.jpg The Isle of Eigg off Scotland's west coast, shows the way forward to a renewable future. in 1997 the island was purchased from its fuedal landlord by the Eigg Heritage Trust, a partnership between the islanders, the Highland Council and the Scottish Wildlife Trust. At that point the elctricity was provided by each house haviong a noisy, polluting and expensive diesel generator, as the island is not connected to the grid. In 2008 the islanders decided to turn to a green solution. Eigg Electric was set up and developed a grid for the island with the energy produced by 3 hydro schemes, one 100 Kw and two 5-6 Kw, four wind turbines producing 24 Kw and 2 aarrays of solar panels producing 10Kw, a total of 144 Kw. This is enough to power the homes of the 90 residents. Each is restricted to using 5Kw maximum at any one time. This avoids spikes in demand, which is the curse of all electric grids. The renewables power the island 98% of the time, with diesel generators automatically kicking in when needed. An array of batteries also stores excess production, giving the island a 24 hour backup if everything fails. This shot shows a household diesel genrtor shed, which is now redundant thanks to the islands renewable electricity supply.

IMG_1656_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_9008_piping.jpg A test drilling site for shale gas at Preese Hall Farm near Blackpool, Lancashire, UK. The gas is contained within layers of shale rock and is released by a controversial process known as Fracking, where liquids are pumped into the rock under high pressure to shatter the rock and release the gas. Recently the process was halted when it was thought it was responsible for two small earthquakes in the area.
In the USA the process is highly controvercial, as it leads to contamination of groundwater and polluted drinking water. Its exploitation is also obviously very bad from a climate change perspective.

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.
