The larger they grow in population, the more patents, infrastructure, crime, and economic output cities produce, each according to its own exponential equation. When a city doubles in size, for instance, it <i>more than doubles</i> its GDP.Until now, though, the relationship between population and pollution has been less clear. Larger cities must produce way more of it, right? Beijing, with its 20 million people, seems perpetually steeped in the kind of smog that’s visible from space. And yet, larger cities are also supposed to have all kinds of energy-efficiency benefits, and 8 million New Yorkers can’t possibly drive as much as 8 million people who live just about anywhere else in America.Shutterstock / Zhu DifengBeijing.NASA scientists have been studying satellite data from across the globe in an effort to tease out the connect between population and pollution. In a paper recently published in <i>Environmental Science & Technology</i>, they’ve determined that cities follow a fairly similar scaling principle on the pollution front, too, although the relationship between population and air quality varies depending on where in the world you look.The scientists focused on measures of nitrogen dioxide, or NO2, stuff that’s produced from burning fossil fuels and car traffic. It’s bad for you, but good for science: NO2 offers a close proxy for air quality. And the researchers were able to model NO2 levels in urban areas around the world (excluding obvious culprits like power plants) using data collected by the Ozone Monitoring Instrument on NASA’s Aura satellite.The results suggest, uns

The disaster, caused when the tsunami that followed the devastating earthquake in 2011 knocked out backup generators pumping water to cool the fuel rods, has cost more than $200bn (£128bn) and is now expected to cost billions more. The human cost, so slow is the impact of radiation, won't be measurable for a generation. It has profoundly shaken confidence in the future of nuclear power, from Taiwan – where earlier this month MPs resorted to fisticuffs as they debated a referendum on a new nuclear power station – to Berlin, and it's changing the landscape of new nuclear here in Britain.<p>Until Fukushima, the risk of catastrophic meltdown of the sort that occurred first at Chernobyl was supposed to be one in 100,000. But Fukushima occurred almost exactly 25 years after Chernobyl and that slashes the estimate to one in 5,000. In addition, the kind of cascade of devastating events that hit Fukushima hadn't previously been factored into risk probability assessments. Now regulatory authorities all over the world have been forced to consider whether, however unlikely, more than one accident could happen in quick succession, and what the consequences would be. The whole risk and safety assessment framework is being redesigned.<p>Britain and France are almost the only countries in Europe still determined to expand nuclear (and France is reducing dependence) rather than focus on holding down demand for electricity, but costs are soaring. Earlier this year, Centrica pulled out of a deal with the French-owned EDF, blaming in part redesigns forced by Fukushima. The coalition, which had promised no new subsidies to nuclear power in 2010, is now offering £10bn of financial guarantees to make sure the extra capacity comes on stream, and may offer a hidden subsidy in guaranteed electricity prices. Meanwhile, subsidy-hating George Osborne will be watching the fate of Angela Merkel in next month's federal elections. Only days after Fukushima, the German chancellor reversed her long-held support for nuclear power and, a year after announcing a 10-year extension, she promised to phase it out by 2022.

Basically the program aims to wallop the range anxiety issue once and for all, by accelerating the development of advanced, long range EV battery systems while lowering the cost of EV batteries. The funds are being distributed to 22 projects in 15 different states through the Department of Energy’s Advanced Projects Research Agency – Energy (ARPA-E).As the Energy Department’s counterpart to the legendary DARPA defense research agency, ARPA-E is looking for cutting edge, transformational technologies that will launch the US into a transportation landscape dominated by electric vehicles, sooner rather than later.22 Pills To Cure Range Anxiety IllsAlong with a number of public and private research universities and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, the funding will go to the sustainability heavy-hitter GE, BASF, and two companies that we’re not familiar with (yet), EnZinc and Cloteam LLC.We’ve covered GE’s many green tech projects previously, especially its new “brilliant” wind turbine, and the company will get almost $900,000 to develop a water-based flow battery (flow batteries are based, literally, on the interaction of liquid flowing along another liquid or solid).RANGE EV battery research funding courtesy of ARPA-E.BASF has been transitioning to a green chemistry model and was recognized with a Presidential Green Chemistry Award in 2010, so we’re going to be paying a lot more attention to the company from now on.
