Walk along any northern coastline — from the windswept Hebrides to the rocky coves of Nova Scotia — and it seems wild enough, clean enough, to be untouched. But beneath the waves, a quieter crisis is unfolding. The latest research has laid bare the scale of microplastic pollution in our coastal and marine environments, and … Continue reading Microplastics’ Threat to Northern Marine Life

Generating hydrogen from water in the air
Most renewable energy stories focus on wind and solar, but the oceans are an immense, underused source of power. Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) is a technology that captures the natural temperature difference between warm surface water and cold deep water to generate electricity. It’s a renewable supply that is predictable and constant — unlike … Continue reading Tapping the Ocean’s Heat: Smarter Designs for Clean Power
