OPINION: Potable Water “on-the-cheap” in La Guajira, Colombia?
proposed aqueduct, according to El Cerrejón coal mining officials, is not suitable for human or animal consumption, or for irrigating crops. In fact, too much of that river water is being used is for environmental dust control measures, as established in the mining company’s Environmental Management Plan.Thus, a different, more immediate, proposal is to link the seawater of the 700 mile Caribbean coastline to inland La Guajira with desalination.The most widely used desalination processes are thermal separation-flash distillation and membrane-separation reverse osmosis. Generally speaking

Marine Technology Society Awarded $3.9 Million for Ocean Enterprise Engagement
will support NOAA in defining Ocean Enterprise requirements and identifying new market opportunities to advance public-private partnerships in support of coastal and ocean climate resilience and workforce development. These partnerships provide critical services and support to many marine environmental management activities and economic sectors, including offshore energy, shipping and coastal resilience.This project expands upon the Dialogues with Industry program launched in 2022 by MTS, the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS)/UNESCO and NOAA. It marks the first effort within the MTS Ocean Enterprise
Mounting Evidence Shows Seismic Surveys Can Harm Marine Life

Australia’s federal regulator (the National Offshore Petroleum Safety and Environmental Management Authority) is currently examining a proposal for seismic testing in the Otway Basin in Bass Strait, which conservationists say has attracted more than 30,000 public submissions.Seismic testing is also mooted as part of the “PEP11” (Petroleum Exploration Permit 11) off the coast
