Gives information on Chicago's air quality and regional pollution prevention programs.
http://www.cityofchicago.org/Environment/AirToxPollution/

Extractions: Home News Events City Departments ... Contact Us Search for: Improving air quality is a main focus for the Department of Environment (DOE). First, the Department ensures compliance with and enforces air quality laws in the city. On a daily basis DOE enforces the City's air pollution control laws and many federal and state laws. The Department issues permits and conducts inspections at more than 2,100 industrial facilities to ensure they are in compliance with laws and regulations. Appropriate legal action is taken against facilities that are in violation. The Department is also responsible for administering certain programs required by the federal Clean Air Act. For instance, we test gasoline at City gas stations to ensure that it complies with federal air quality requirements for gasoline formulation. Second, the Department implements many voluntary initiatives to encourage better air quality. More information about these programs can be found below. New information on air quality is now available year-round in more than 100 U.S. cities. As part of an ongoing effort to protect the American public from air pollution, the Environmental Protection Agency, together with state and local governments, is expanding current air quality forecasts to include daily information on particle pollution You can find this new air quality index at http://www.epa.gov/airnow/

EEA - Climate Change
Reports on the science of climate change, its impacts and possible mitigation strategies. Collection of indicators, reports, links, data sets and targets on climate change.
http://themes.eea.eu.int/Environmental_issues/climate

Extractions: Glossary Climate change Over the past 100 years global mean temperature has increased by 0.6 °C and in Europe by about 1.2 °C and the 1990s was the warmest decade over the past 150 years. Temperatures are projected to increase further by 1.4 to 5.8°C by 2100, with larger increases in Eastern and Southern Europe. There is increased evidence that most of this warming can be attributed to the emission of greenhouse gases and aerosols by human activities. Warming-up of the atmosphere is part of changes in climate and (extreme) weather conditions. If these changes persist, they will influence water availability, flood hazards, agricultural productivity, and natural areas. This section contains information on the causes of the problem, the possible consequences, and the national and international activities under the Kyoto protocol to limit climate change. webmaster@eea.eu.int

http://interactive.usask.ca/ski/environment/

Extractions: Cypress Upland With eleven different ecoregions, Saskatchewan is a land of natural beauty and diversity. Explore spectacular settings, like Clearwater Provincial Park , located in the Churchill River Upland Ecoregion. The shape of the Saskatchewan landscape is a result of the geology of the province, and, in particular, with the effects of glaciation from over 10,000 years ago. The flat plains to the south of the province are formed the sediment deposited from glacial lakes and the rolling lanscapes in the northern agricultural areas typify glacial till parent material. Ecozones are areas of the earth's surface representative of very generalized ecological units characterized by interactive and adjusting abiotic and biotic factors. Canada is separated into 15 Terrestial and 5 Marine Ecozones. Examples of ecoregions are Prairies, Boreal Shield, Taiga Cordelera and Pacific Maritime. Reference: Ecological Management and Assessment Network. Ecoregions Ecoregions are subdivisions of an ecozone characterized by distinctive large order landforms or assemblages of regional landforms, small order macro- or mesoclimates, vegetation, soils, water, and regional human activity patterns/uses. There are 217 terrestrial and 18 marine ecoregions in Canada. Saskatchewan has 11 distinct Ecoregions.

PAI: Population Issues: Environment
environment. symbolizes the conviction that greater access to voluntary family planningbenefits the health of women, children and the environment worldwide.
http://www.populationaction.org/issues/environment/

Extractions: Overview Population Reproductive Health Policy ... Intl. Advocacy Environment More people and higher incomes worldwide are multiplying humanity's impacts on the environment and on the natural resources that are essential to life. Today more than 1.1 billion people live in the areas richest in species diversity and the most threatened by human activities. While these areas comprise about 12 percent of the planet's land surface, they hold nearly 20 percent of its human population. The population in these biodiversity hotspots is growing at a collective rate of 1.8 percent annually, compared to the world's population's annual growth rate of 1.3 percent. Current demographic trends offer hope, however. Over the past 40 years the average number of children born to each woman has fallen from five to less than three. Young people increasingly want to wait to have children and to have smaller families. Policymakers have a choice. They can do nothing, or they can help ensure that in the 21st century the world's population peaks with fewer than 8 billion people, simply by committing the financial resources to meet the needs of couples who want to have smaller families and delay childbearing. Community-Based Population and Environment (CBPE) programs can improve local environmental, health and economic conditions, and ease the pressures that human population exerts on local natural resources. In recent years, dozens of environmental and development projects in developing countries have formed partnerships to integrate or otherwise link community-based activities related both to natural resource conservation and reproductive health.

The Aluminium Industry's Sustainable Development Report The Shipshaw powerhouse is part of an extensive hydroelectric network operated by Alcan in Quebec, Canada. Aluminium is a sustainable material. At the current primary aluminium production level, known bauxite reserves will last for hundreds of years. More than 55 per cent of the world's aluminium production is powered by renewable hydro-electric power. Products made from aluminium can be recycled repeatedly to produce new products. The increasing use of recycled metal saves both energy and mineral resources needed for primary production.
