  • Fracking's return stirs fury in Pennsylvania town of Dimock whose water turned toxic.
    DUKAS_176638162_EYE
    Fracking's return stirs fury in Pennsylvania town of Dimock whose water turned toxic.
    The small town of Dimock saw its water become brown, undrinkable, even flammable - and its residents are still feeling the effects.

    Fracking has burst back on to the national stage in the US presidential election contest for the must-win swing state of Pennsylvania. But for one town in this state that saw its water become mud-brown, undrinkable and even flammable 15 years ago, the spectre of fracking never went away.

    Craig Stevens and Calin Riffle go over documents at Ray Kemble’s home, now a new research non-profit that will test the property’s water, soil and plants for contamination, to help inform potential new laws in Dimock, PA.

    Victoria Switzer is a rare liberal in this staunchly conservative county but also shares Kemble's frustration.

  • Jasper, garnet, sometimes sapphires: pocketfuls of treasure at Gemstone Beach

    Jasper, garnet, sometimes sapphires: pocketfuls of treasure at Gemstone Beach
    At Orepuki, on the remote south coast of New Zealand's South Island, a bed of riches colour the shoreline, bringing gem hunters from near and far.

    Jasper, hydro-grossular garnet in pinks, greens and yellows, patterned fossilised worm-trails, spotted argillite, frosty white quartz, speckled granites, pink-flecked rhodonite and - in rare cases - the unmistakeable blue of sapphire, colour the low-tide line.
    The gems likely started their lengthy journey to Gemstone Beach during the last ice age, roughly 16,000-18,000 years ago. As the landscape of Fiordland - the dramatic mountainous region of the lower South Island - altered and released its rocks.

    Karl Farrow is CEO of CeraPhi. Former fracking site could lead UK's renewable revolution
    Final testing being done in project to give North Yorkshire site new life as source of geothermal energy.

    A former fracking site in the North Yorkshire village of Kirby Misperton, once a lightning rod for environmental protests, may soon be a new frontier in Britain’s clean energy revolution. For the first time in the UK, an abandoned gas well could begin a second life as a source of geothermal energy.

    The transformation is being led by CeraPhi Energy, made up of a team of former oil and gas veterans who plan to use their expertise in drilling for fossil fuels to harness the potential for renewable energy lying dormant beneath the earth’s surface.

    After 30 years in the fossil fuel sector, Karl Farrow founded the company in 2020, in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. The plan, he said, was to bring together people with deep expertise in the oil and gas industry to unlock a new source of clean energy.

    Karl Farrow CEO of CeraPhi who are currently testing the viability of geothermal energy at an old Gas Well in Kirby Misperton, North Yorkshire, UK.
    In 2017 this particular well in Kirby Misperton was the site of extended anti fracking protest. 'Third Energy' aimed to be the first UK operation of Fracking. Large scale protest at the site and funding issue led the company to stop their operations. Third Energy and the well licence was subsequenty bought by a local energy group who have partner with CeraPhi to produce renewable energy from the site.

    In 2017 this particular well in Kirby Misperton was the site of extended anti fracking protest. 'Third Energy' aimed to be the first UK operation of Fracking. Large scale protest at the site and funding issue led the company to stop their operations. Third Energy and the well licence was subsequenty bought by a local energy group who have partner with CeraPhi to produce renewable energy from the site.

    A former fracking site in the North Yorkshire village of Kirby Misperton, once a lightning rod for environmental protests, may soon be a new frontier in Britain’s clean energy revolution. For the first time in the UK, an abandoned gas well could begin a second life as a source of geothermal energy.

    The transformation is being led by CeraPhi Energy, made up of a team of former oil and gas veterans who plan to use their expertise in drilling for fossil fuels to harness the potential for renewable energy lying dormant beneath the earth’s surface.

    After 30 years in the fossil fuel sector, Karl Farrow founded the company in 2020, in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. The plan, he said, was to bring together people with deep expertise in the oil and gas industry to unlock a new source of clean energy.

    They are also investigating other local uses for geothermal energy within the local area.

    Human footprints made in the last Ice Age , 20,000 years ago have been confirmed as the oldest ever found in North America.

    For decades it was believed that the first humans in North America were a from a culture called Clovis by anthropologists.

    Evidence placing them on the continent as far back as 13,000 years ago.

    However, new testing confirms age of oldest human footprints in North America.

    The testing came after archeologists caused a stir with the announcement in 2021 they had found a set of fossilised human footprints in the White Sands area of New Mexico dating aback around 20,000 years.

    The announcement and results of the dating methodology used sparked dissent in the scientific community over the accuracy. 

    The controversy centred on the accuracy of the original ages, which were obtained by radiocarbon dating.

    The age of the White Sands footprints was initially determined by dating seeds of the common aquatic plant  Ruppia cirrhosa found in the fossilised impressions.

    But aquatic plants can acquire carbon from dissolved carbon atoms in the water rather than ambient air, which can potentially cause the measured ages to be too old. 

    But now a new study by the US Geological Survey along with the UK’s Bournemouth University  has confirmed the original age calculation.

    Human footprints made in the last Ice Age , 20,000 years ago have been confirmed as the oldest ever found in North America.

    For decades it was believed that the first humans in North America were a from a culture called Clovis by anthropologists.

    Evidence placing them on the continent as far back as 13,000 years ago.

    However, new testing confirms age of oldest human footprints in North America.

    The testing came after archeologists caused a stir with the announcement in 2021 they had found a set of fossilised human footprints in the White Sands area of New Mexico dating aback around 20,000 years.

    The announcement and results of the dating methodology used sparked dissent in the scientific community over the accuracy. 

    The controversy centred on the accuracy of the original ages, which were obtained by radiocarbon dating.

    The age of the White Sands footprints was initially determined by dating seeds of the common aquatic plant  Ruppia cirrhosa found in the fossilised impressions.

    But aquatic plants can acquire carbon from dissolved carbon atoms in the water rather than ambient air, which can potentially cause the measured ages to be too old. 

    But now a new study by the US Geological Society along with the UK’s Bournemouth University  has confirmed the original age calculation.

    Few in Somerset MP's constituency share his enthusiasm but some do agree with need for 'unpopular measures'

    Residents who live near Rees-Mogg's constituency home, the Grade II listed red sandstone mansion Gournay Court in the village of West Harptree, were digesting their MP's claim at the Tory party conference that he would be "delighted" if his garden was fracked.
