Oil from Chinese Vessel Found at North West Island Nature Sanctuary
There is always a dark cloud hiding somewhere behind every silver lining and unfortunately, this also applies to the recent Great Barrier Reef incident. Although the Chinese vessel was refloated and towed away from the shoal, some oil from the spill still washed up at the well-known North West Island nature sanctuary. This particular sanctuary is a breeding site for hundreds of thousands of seabirds and turtles. Many feared for the safety, health and well-being of these animals on the island,...

An Interesting Solution to the Problem of Littered Cigarette Butts
Everywhere you go, you can find cigarette butts lying around somewhere. They’re on the sidewalk, on the streets, strewn across parking lots and even throughout parks, beaches, and our own backyards. It doesn’t matter if there’s a trash can or other cigarette disposal bin nearby, people flick them wherever they feel like it and it doesn’t do anyone any bit of good. Fortunately, one company has come up with an interesting solution for this problem. Since it’s highly unlikely that...

Breaking: Dense ash cloud from Iceland volcano suspends more flights in UK, Ireland
Several airports in Scotland and Northern Ireland stopped all flights at 07:00 BST this morning, with more airport closures in those regions planned for this afternoon. The culprit is, of course, Iceland's Eyafjallajökull volcano, which has proceeded to emit ash into northwestern European skies. Changing weather conditions such as the strength and direction of winds have and will continue to affect air traffic conditions over the British Isles. For more details on airport closures and ash cloud conditions see this BBC report...
Europe’s Largest Wind Farm Project Upsets Swedish Natives
Sweden is sure making some interesting headlines this week when it comes to energy sources. First, there was the issue of the Greenpeace protest at a nuclear power plant. Now, however, I’m happy to report somewhat better news. This Scandinavian nation plans to build Europe’s largest wind park, which will contain 1,101 wind turbines. The Markbygden farm will cover an area more than 310 miles (500 square km) in size (or 5 times the size of Paris). How did they manage...
Creature Feature: The Angel Shark
This week’s Creature Feature takes us along the coasts of Africa and Europe, particularly from the Mediterranean Sea area all the way up to Scandinavia. Don’t be fooled by this creature’s name, though: it may be called an Angel Shark, but it has one hell of a temper. The Angel Shark (sometimes also referred to as the Monkfish, Angel Ray, or Fiddle Fish—among other names) is a Critically Endangered species. Unlike other species of shark (like the Great White), this particular...

Update: Singapore Beaches Reopened After Oil Spill Cleanup
After a recent oil spill, Singapore announced plans to re-open their beaches this past weekend. The spill was a result of a collision between the MT Bunga Kelana 3 tanker and MV Waily bulk carrier. The crash tore a hole through the tanker and spilled approximately 2,500 tonnes of crude oil. As many people worked quickly to contain and clean up the spill, some of the oil still made its way to the Singapore coast. Places that were affected by the...
