Expert Author: Brian Mellor Stack testing companies specialize in air emissions testing for compliance with standards and test methodologies set out by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Manufacturing and processing industries such as Pulp and Paper, Cement, Pharmaceutical, and Petrochemical, use a large variety of air emissions sources -- like baghouses, boilers, engines, heaters, incinerators, lime kilns, regenerative thermal oxidizers, turbines, and many more -- all of which require testing for air quality compliance.

Expert Author: Kristin Reeves The potential for growth of the global wind energy producing industry is on the rise. It is clean and renewable and the supply is virtually infinite. It is produced domestically and more importantly today, the generation of wind power is economically and climatically viable compared to the use of fossil fuels. The advantages of wind energy far outweigh the disadvantages. Expert Author: Kristin Reeves The Great Barrier Reef is the world's largest coral reef system and home to countless species of marine wildlife. It is famous for its natural beauty and history has been witness to its treacherous passages. Unfortunately there are still renegade shipping companies who insist on attempting time saving short cuts through the reef. The incentive for such a risk is financial gain but the consequences for the slightest navigational blunder could be environmentally catastrophic. Expert Author: Alexander Sutton The "green" trend has been around since the 1970s, when an OPEC boycott, gas rationing, and spiking prices called into question our reliance on oil. The creation of suburbs and expansion of cities led to increased numbers of large, gas-guzzling cars on the road, and air pollution was growing more prevalent, begging the question, "How can we find inexpensive, clean, renewable energy?" Expert Author: Alexander Sutton There are a plethora of advantages to harnessing the sun's powerful rays through the use of solar panels. When this technology is applied to commercial and industrial uses, the benefits only seem to multiply. Industrial solar panels feature more than just a bigger surface area and some tout a drastic reduction in the cost of running large businesses. In certain situations, solar panels meant for industries can even be applied for home use. Not only is the utilization of solar panels beneficial to keeping costs under control, but they are also beneficial to reduce the negative environmental impact on our planet that running large businesses can create. Expert Author: Aimee Ocampo Delivery can now take as long as four months as makers have to schedule production around power cuts. Export prices are likely to increase in H2 2011 as well. Dubbed as China's worst electricity shortage since 2004, this year's deficit and subsequent rationing are forcing manufacturers to switch work to night shifts or use generators to meet their production schedules. Expert Author: Alan Jilka Corporate social responsibility reports are in vogue these days. And no doubt many, if not most emanate from a sincere desire to be good stewards of natural resources during the search for profits. The aims of such reports are many, but in western Kansas all environmental concerns are trumped by the availability of water. It is a well-established fact that the Ogallala Aquifer is declining at least six inches per year, and only a small portion of that figure is replenished. Many companies are following the public at large and neglecting this most pressing of issues in the region. Expert Author: Frenny Duffin We often discard trash, without thinking twice. Be it, our day-to-day consumption of the canned food products, our electrical appliances, our vehicles, or be it other miscellaneous items. It is often thought that the trash is useless and nothing but garbage piled up on top of each other. But, this is a misconception. Due to the understanding of the importance of metal recycling each day, for various social, economic and ecological purposes, recycling centers have become a prominent industry. Expert Author: Paul P In the UK, the AQS (Air Quality Strategy) sets out standards for chemical concentrations in the air at selected areas and sets up objective dates for achieving these air quality standards. Such improvements to quality of air can significantly improve health and well-being of affected people. The most at risk typically are children, seniors, and those with existing respiratory problems so areas chosen for receptors include residential areas, schools and hospitals. Expert Author: Stephen Reeves We cannot predict tornadoes and we certainly cannot prevent them. Experts spend months chasing these storms. No amount of study will render tornadoes totally predictable. The threat of tornadoes will always be present and the only way to survive them is to make ourselves less vulnerable. Mother Nature takes care of the Earth as she pleases and if we get in the way she will turn our lives literally upside down. Expert Author: Stephen Reeves On the morning of February 2nd 2011 authorities upgraded Severe Tropical Cyclone Yasi to a Category 5 storm. It was described as a severe threat to life and property and more life threatening than any event experienced in recent generations. This system was 600 km in diameter and the eye of the storm was 35 kilometers. It was forecast to hit the north coast of Queensland, Australia between Cairns and Cardwell at midnight on February 3rd 2011. It was compared in size to Hurricane Katrina which devastated New Orleans in August 2005. Those residents who decided to stay and ride out Severe Tropical Cyclone Yasi were warned that they were about to experience the most terrifying 24 hours of their lives. Expert Author: Stephen Reeves Scientists are constantly carrying out research on the blue whale in attempt to assist in the survival of this magnificent creature which experts now estimate are numbering less than 10 000. Apart from sharks and Japanese and Norwegian whaling, ships strikes pose the biggest threats to the baby blue whale. Research offers the best hope for new shipping paths that will give Blue Whales the space they need. Expert Author: Stephen Reeves Experts believe the Blue Whale is largest living creature to ever breathe on our planet. Scientists and oceanographers are constantly carrying out research on them in attempt to assist in the survival of this magnificent creature. Until recent times one of the greatest mysteries of the sea was where are these type of baleen whales born? The Eastern North Pacific Blue Whale population estimated at a little over 2000 represents the largest remaining Blue Whale population on earth. Scientists can track them during the winter migration south to the places where they give birth somewhere in the tropics. Expert Author: Anne Shaw Tsunami is an environmental disaster caused by earthquake in the sea bed which cannot be stopped but the lives can be saved by taking precautions. Tsunami prone areas should be justified and preventing measures should be taken for them before hand. Expert Author: Alexander Sutton World pollution is a growing concern all around our planet which is why more and more companies are switching over to biodiesel fuel to run their fleets, machines and devices. This fuel is derived from plant based materials and is considerably smarter then using the typical gasoline from the past. Aircrafts, farming equipment, factory operations and even civilian vehicles are using this fuel to cut down the damage that our earth is being exposed to. Generally this option is twenty five percent cheaper then the cost of standard gasoline and is an environmentally friendly choice.
