Broken sewers, flooded industrial plants and dead bodies are all likely to blame for poisoning the waters being drained from New Orleans.But the water -- and the muck it is leaving behind -- also owes its contamination to a source as mundane as it is unexpected: Toxins common in most urban environments that made their way en masse into the water as it stagnated atop the city.
So states a University of Florida (UF) professor who has spent years studying the harmful contaminants that turn up in urban runoff, or rainwater that washes across streets and other hard surfaces in cities. Environmental engineering professor John Sansalone's perspective is especially relevant because it is based on field research in New Orleans and Baton Rouge, where he was a professor at Louisiana State University before taking a job at UF this summer.

Deadline: October 15, 2005
Ameren Corporation, a power company that serves electric and natural gas customers in Illinois and Missouri, has announced the addition of fuel cell kits to its lineup of education programs. The second 2005 application period for Ameren Power Up grants opens September 1 and continues through October 15, 2005. During that time teachers can apply online for any of the three educational programs, valued annually at $900,000. To be eligible to apply, educators must be affiliated with schools that are electric and/or natural gas customers of AmerenCILCO, AmerenCIPS, AmerenIP, or AmerenUE.
Through the Ameren Power Up Fuel Cell Kit Program, Ameren is providing self-contained solar hydrogen fuel cell energy systems -- kits that high school science teachers can use to build awareness of renewable energy sources through hands-on experiments -- and a curriculum that explains energy generation through renewable resources. To be eligible, teachers must teach at public or private high schools in Ameren company service areas.
Offered last spring and again this fall, Ameren Power Up SMART Board Interactive Whiteboards provide a touch-sensitive display about the size of a standard whiteboard. Hooked up to a computer and projector, this interactive whiteboard operates like a giant computer screen that students and teachers simply touch to operate. The program covers the costs of the boards, software, connecting cables, and training. Ameren Power Up SMART Boards are available to public or private K-12 schools.
In 2005, the company is also awarding $250 Ameren Power Up Teacher Grants totaling $150,000 directly to teachers (half of those grants were awarded in the first half of 2005). The program is designed for individual classroom teachers, who can use the funds for everything from calculators to basic supplies. Ameren Power Up Teacher Grants may be used for any classroom-related project that has an academic focus to improve student achievement. Teacher grants must fund projects or materials in public or private K-12 schools.

Turning off unused lights, insulating your house and buying energy-efficient appliances are all great ways to save energy, which decreases air pollution and saves you money in the process. And if everyone were truly conservation-minded, we would save thousands of megawatt-hours of electricity every day. But now you can go a step further. Without buying any equipment or making any changes to your house, you can purchase clean energy from non-polluting sources (you’ve got to keep your soymilk cold somehow). The problem is, not many people are choosing “green power,” though it’s available in every state. [Source: E: The Environmental Magazine]

I'm not a big fan of most environmental Web sites, books, and other educational materials aimed at kids. So I was thrilled to discover a newly launched site out of Japan that is the best site I've seen on green topics. It's so clear and thoughtful that practically any grown-up will find it of value, too.

If you're going to build a gigantically humongous casino/hotel/condo/shopping center megaplex in the middle of Las Vegas, you may as well do it green ... or as green as a project of this size could be in the middle of the desert during a drought.
Brought to you by MGM Mirage, the 18-million-square-foot, $5 billion project will reportedly seek an unspecified level of LEED certification and, The Globe and Mail reports, will be bigger than Times Square, Soho, and Rockefeller Center -- combined.
MGM's claims of "sustainability" are likely more hype than reality, at least in the classic sense of the word, but designers, I suppose, do deserve some measure of credit for going greener than the average megaplex. Eco-design features are said to include use of reclaimed water, planting of green roofs, and construction of a central power plant to be located on-site (presumably powered by something cleaner than, say, coal).
One of the least-hailed features of the complex, though, will be an attempt at some kind of urban density, as well as the creation of a multi-use area amid the sprawl of Las Vegas' strip. So way to go, MGM! May you and your big-name architects inspire other developers large and small to aim for at least some shade of green. [Gristmill]

'The corporations are demanding regulation,' George Monbiot reports, 'and the government is refusing to give it to them.'
For the first time on record, the permafrost of western Siberia is melting. As it does so, it releases the methane stored in the peat. Methane has 20 times the greenhouse warming effect of carbon dioxide. The more gas the peat releases, the warmer the world becomes, and the more the permafrost melts.... So much for the perpetual demand of the think tanks to 'get government off the backs of business'. Any firm which wants to develop the new technologies wants tough new rules. It is regulation that creates the market.... So why won[base ']t the government act? Because it is siding with the dirty companies against the clean ones. Deregulation has become the test of its manhood: the sign that it has put the bad old days of economic planning behind it... [I]t has now become clear to me that the obstacle is not the market but the government, waving a dog-eared treatise which proves some point in a debate the rest of the world has forgotten. Unfortunately siding with the dirty companies against the clean ones will turn out to be lousy macroeconomic policy, as well as bad environmental policy. [Gil Friend]

New book from the National Academies Press. Also available at no charge in PDF.
Summary: The Climate Change Science Program (CCSP) and its predecessor U.S. Global Change Research Program have sponsored climate research and observations for nearly 15 years, yet the overall progress of the program has not been measured systematically. Metrics a system of measurement that includes the item being measured, the unit of measurement, and the value of the unit offer a tool for measuring such progress; improving program performance; and demonstrating program successes to Congress, the Office of Management and Budget, and the public. This report lays out a framework for creating and implementing metrics for the CCSP. A general set of metrics provides a starting point for identifying the most important measures, and the principles provide guidance for refining the metrics and avoiding unintended consequences.

Upcoming title from the National Academies Press.
Summary: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers recently completed its feasibility study for the Upper Mississippi River-Ilinois Waterway, which was one of the agency's longest and most complicated studies in its history. The first two reports from this WSTB committee reviewed analytical aspects of the Corps feasibility study. This report considered the broader issue of managing the multiple resources of the Upper Mississippi River and Illinois Waterway, especially with regard to several, recently-issued NRC reports on Corps of Engineers planning procedures. The report finds that a key issue regarding planning decisions on these river systems is the ambiguity related to several different pieces of legislation and acts that govern river management, and thus recommends that the administration and Congress clarify the federal intent for managing this river and waterway system. The report recommends an independent, retrospective reivew of the experience with a federal inter-agency Principals Group, which was convened to provide guidance to the Corps study. It is also recommended that the Corps strive to incorporate flexible, adaptive management principles through its entire water planning program, including operations of the lock and dam system.

From vivus architecture+design, news of Fannie Mae's new Energy Efficiency Mortgage Program (in PDF). Some of the program's highlights:
- Recognizes energy savings as qualifying income
- Allows energy improvements to be financed
- Increases home-buying power
- Lowers energy costs and household expenses
- Serves more borrowers -- all incomes eligible
- Flexible and affordable finance options
- Increases home value
- Helps improve air quality and create a more comfortable living environment
I think this is particularly important because it open up such options to homebuyers that might not otherwise be able to afford some energy-efficiency measures. [sustainablog]

From the Montreal Gazette via Canada.com, an article on Canadian businessman Joe Williams and his Hydrogen Generating Module. This is not a fuel cell or means of using hydrogen as fuel, but rather a machine for introducing hydrogen into an internal combustion engine and making it burn fuel more efficiently. Williams believes he's on to something big:
...if Joe Williams turns out to be right, "I think Bill Gates and our group will be shaking hands," he says. "It's that big."
"It" is his Hydrogen Generating Module, or H2N-Gen for short....
It's a scientific fact that adding hydrogen to a combustion chamber will cause a cleaner burn. The challenge has always been to find a way to get the hydrogen gas into the combustion chamber in a safe, reliable and cost-effective way.
Williams claims he has achieved this with his H2N-Gen. His product, he said, produces a more complete burn, greatly increasing efficiency and reducing fuel consumption by 10 to 40 per cent - and pollutants by up to 100 per cent.
Most internal combustion engines operate at about 35 per cent efficiency. This means that only 35 per cent of the fuel is fully burned. The rest either turns to carbon corroding the engine or goes out the exhaust pipe as greenhouse gases.
The H2N-Gen increases burn efficiency to at least 97 per cent, Williams said. This saves fuel and greatly reduces emissions.
It also means less engine maintenance and oil changes. The only thing the vehicle owner has to do is refill the unit with distilled water once every 80 hours of engine use. This certainly sounded like it belonged in the "weird science" and/or the "too-good-to-be-true" categories, but a third-party lab has independently verified Williams' claims about the machine, and he's currently seeking certification from the Canadian Environmental Technology Verification, "...a non-profit Toronto company licensed by the federal government to verify environmental technology."
Williams' story is interesting not only for the H2N-Gen itself, but also for his business plan:
Williams doesn't want to make money just through selling H2N-Gen units. He has his eye on getting a share of the fuel savings.
In other words, he would hope to install the H2N-Gen unit in, say, every Canadian National railway and truck engine for free in return for a percentage of CN's fuel savings.
Furthermore, he would hope to get his hands on carbon credits promised by the Kyoto Protocol. The trade in carbon credits is predicted to be a multi-billion-dollar business as countries attempt to meet their 2012 obligations of cutting greenhouse gases to below 1990 levels.... "Credits are a huge bonus," Williams said. He figures his company could make billions trading them. At least one other larger competitor is labelling Williams a "snake-oil salesman," but given the amount of testing he's subjected his invention to, I have to put this in the "let's keep an eye on it" column. I would think (and the engineers reading can feel free to correct and instruct) that technology like this could work well as a bridge technology to more sustainable means of powering personal transporation. While I realize that mass transit and is probably the most preferable alternative in terms of truly sustainable transportation, coupled with urban planning that focuses on public transportation, walking and biking, more efficient, cleaner burning cars could certainly ease the transition.

From The Seattle Times, a scathing editorial on the US government's mercurial support of renewable energy technologies.
They're putting up another wind farm near Walla Walla, in Washington state. The towers are coming from Korea, Vietnam and Canada. The turbines, blades and other parts were made in Denmark.
What are Americans doing? They're taking the stuff other people make off of boats and trucking them to the wind farm. Americans might have been manufacturing these windmills, were their national leaders not so wrapped up in the needs of oilmen.
These are gold-rush days for renewable-energy manufacturing, but Washington, D.C., has done little to keep it on American soil. Our lawmakers are blind to the possibilities. Worse, when it comes to policy, they're kings of chaos.
Vestas Wind Technology, the giant Danish maker of wind turbines, considered building a plant in southwestern Washington, or across the border in Portland, Ore. But Congress failed to extend a tax credit for wind-generated power, and Vestas dropped the idea. Its plant would have made the region a center for renewable energy. It could have created 1,000 good-paying jobs. Would have, could have. We can (and probably should) argue about the wisdom of subsidies in general, but that's not really the issue when our new energy bill contains $9 billion in subsidies for fossil fuels in a time when oil companies are raking in record profits, while renewables received a mere $3 billion. The government's on-again, off-again support of wind and solar technologies is knee-capping industries that could create permanent, good-paying manufacturing jobs. These jobs, like so many others, are moving overseas to Germany and Japan, countries that offer more substantial and and stable support. This isn't about ideology or treehugging: it's a simple matter of economics. Writer Froma Harrop offers some hope by observing "If the threats of surging oil prices and global warming don't get through the thick skulls in Congress, perhaps the prospect of Americans making serious money through these emerging technologies will." So far, though, our fearless leaders in Washington seem too tied up in their normally narrow view of energy production to recognize this golden opportunity... [sustainablog]

As a college professor, an English professor at that, I often struggle over how I can bring sustainability into the classes I teach without actually "preaching" the concept outside of my courses' contexts. Now, I've got some models...
From St. Olaf News via Vivus Architecture + Design, an announcement that this small liberal arts college in Minnesota will use sustainability as it's main academic theme this school year. The college has a wealth of activities planned to highlight sustainability, including a survey of students to "gauge their environmental values and ecological literacy," as well as tours of campus facilities that already integrate sustainable practices. Professors across the curriculum will integrate the theme into their course syllabi.
In India, a recent one-day conference addressed methods of popularizing renewable energy practices, including granting accreditation "to those higher learning institutions which derive at least 30 per cent of their power requirement from renewable sources," and encouraging that "renewable energy curriculum be made a part of the syllabus at every level of higher education."
With issues such as climate change and peak oil staring us right in the face, we in higher ed. (as well as primary and secondary schools) need to work sustainability into our teaching. The models are there -- how do we encourage adoption of such ideas short of a top-down mandate (which, in my experience, is not the best way to get faculty on board)? I remember Joel Makower's challenge from last Spring, and I think issuing such challenges is a place to start, especially with those of us who are already concerned. How do we convince our less-interested colleagues, though, especially those in fields that don't seem immediately relevant? Finally, how do we get the institutions themselves to realize that a recycling program is not the end-all of sustainable practices on campus? [sustainablog]

That seems to be the latest tactic of wingnuts around the country, from the Justice Department to FOX News (there's a shocker...).
From Editor and Publisher:
The Clarion-Ledger of Jackson, Miss., has obtained a copy of an internal e-mail the U.S. Department of Justice sent out this week to various U.S. attorneys' offices. Reporter Jerry Mitchell's conclusion: Federal officials appear to be seeking proof to blame the flood of New Orleans on environmental groups, documents show.
He quotes from the e-mail: "Has your district defended any cases on behalf of the (U.S.) Army Corps of Engineers against claims brought by environmental groups seeking to block or otherwise impede the Corps work on the levees protecting New Orleans? If so, please describe the case and the outcome of the litigation."
Cynthia Magnuson, a spokeswoman for the Justice Department, told the reporter Thursday she couldn't comment "because it's an internal e-mail."
Shown a copy of the e-mail, David Bookbinder, senior attorney for Sierra Club, asked why the officials were "trying to smear us like this?" He added: "It's unfortunate that the Bush administration is trying to shift the blame to environmental groups. It doesn't surprise me at all. NewsHounds has a nice summary of FOX News gasbag Sean Hannity trying this tactic (and getting roundly spanked):
A happy surprise was guest Valsin A. Marmillion, spokesperson for America's Wetlands, which was not the group who sued to stop the floodgate project. Hannity tried to get Marmillion to admit that the project would have prevented the flood but Marmillion, who remained calm and congenial, told him there was no way to know. Then, much to Hannity's chagrin, I'm sure, Marmillion added, "What I can say is that if the wetlands had not been disappearing at a rate that they have been, a football field every half-hour, it would be a different story." He explained that it's not an either/or proposition but that both have to be done. He said flood control and saving the wetlands "have to go in tandem."
Thwarted in his effort to blame the flood on environmentalists, Hannity attacked "environmental extremism" for being "the reason we can't drill anywhere, we can't do any coal mining, we haven't built any refineries, we don't support nuclear power" and for "greatly impacting American lives."
Marmillion answered pleasantly, "That's not the story tonight. The story tonight is more complex and I'm glad you raised what you did." He said that the issue has about 10 or 15 solutions "and what we need to do is marry the wetlands protection with flood protection in a comprehensive plan." He said the state has been working on it for 10 years and "we've been trying to get the attention..." He never said whose attention but it sounded a lot like he meant the federal government. He said that five days before the hurricane, the governor of Louisiana had asked the citizens to "start writing people" and tell them what a serious situation it was.
You go, Mr. Marmillion! Hannity didn't even have a chance to mention the mayor and the buses. Seeing how we've even seen this one turn up here at sustainablog, I have no doubt that the right's online stormtroopers are out there trying to spread this meme as quickly and widely as possible. Is there ever a problem or issue complex enough for these folks that they won't try to pin it on a single progressive issue group? I mean, of course, other than the problems or issues they try to blame on a single person...
UPDATE: CommonDreams has reprinted the article from the Clarion-Ledger. One interesting, important fact you'll need when the wingnuts come a'callin': " The levees that broke causing New Orleans to flood weren't Mississippi River levees. They were levees that protected the city from Lake Pontchartrain levees on the other side of the city ." [sustainablog]
