Randle Reef in Harbour is one of the most contaminated sediment sites in the after over a century of from manufacturing. The 60 ha site has high legacy polycyclic aromatic (PAHs) from petroleum refining, coal tar gasification, steel making, and sewage. The last cleanup phase is confining toxic sediment in a 6.5 ha engineered containment facility (ECF) lined by deep-driven steel sheet pile walls, which is then capped-sealed.

Energy Central: "Surging New England Energy Prices: No Surprise." New England consumers paid record high prices last yr for home heating + electricity. Shortages of natural gas and squabbles with New York State over methane gas pipelines drove the process. 'The combination of electricity and natural gas heating bills exceeded $1,000 per month for an average-sized house in Massachusetts, even though winter temperatures in New England were warmer than average.' Eighty percent of homes in New England, which includes Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont, heat with fuels from oil and gas. "Hydrocarbon fuel share of home heating is natural gas (39%), fuel oil and kerosene (33%), and propane or liquid petroleum gas (8%). Because methane gas pipeline capacity is constricted, New England "must import up to 30 percent of its gas by LNG tanker and pay high world market prices." Energy efficiency should come first, with weather-stripping, insulation + better windows, which will be faster, easier + cheaper then trying to increase energy supply. Heat pumps + induction cooktops will help rapidly as well. Then focus on renewables, which are local + sustainable. After reviewing New England electric rates in the graphic, next look at California with its wildfires + flooding. Climate change is being experienced as economic deterioration on both coasts. Climate change is inherently inflationary.

On Earth, EVERY single cell has lipids that protects the inside of the cell. So they are universal biomarkers as we know them. Pablo cares about the tails of the : the / .

Some of these have been found on Mars!

Lipids are geostable and biomarkers.

Paleogeomagnetic and isotope study reveals the timing of hydrocarbon evolution


phys.org/news/2023-02-paleogeo
>In sedimentary basins, the evolution of hydrocarbon including oil/gas generation, migration, and accumulation, as well as reservoir destruction, is often controlled by regional tectonic activities.
