Map Explorer Explore maps of future climate as simulated by individual climate models. IMPORTANT: When viewing and using results from individual climate models, it is imperative that you also take account of the range in the climate projections. If you have not already done so, we encourage you to use the Climate Futures approach to identify two or three models that capture the range of results relevant to your application. Initially, the map shows just the four NRM Super-Clusters . Users who wish to see maps of multi-model results should refer to the Technical Report and Cluster Reports .

Brooklyn Named to List of Top 10 Green Roof Cities | gbNYC Real Estate Group | Commercial Real Estate & Green Buildings in New York City In good news for green building across Kings County, Brooklyn has placed fourth on a recent list of cities ranked by square footage of green roofs. Green Roofs for Healthy Cities (“GRHC”) recently released the results of its 2007 Green Roof Survey, which collects data on the size, composition, and location of green roofs in North America. The survey, which GRHC has been conducting annually since 2004, placed Brooklyn at number 4 on the list of the top 10 green roof cities, with 102,908 square feet of green roofs implemented in 2007. Chicago came in first for the fourth year in a row with 517,633 square feet. GRHC points to Chicago’s policies that support the creation of green roofs, such as F.A.R. bonuses and tax increment financing, as the reason for their repeated superior ranking. 1. about gbNYC gbNYC is a multi-disciplinary consulting and real estate services firm.

About the circular plots Each region has a color representing its own “native” crops and those colors are connected to other regions due the importance of those crops in the diets/agricultural production in other regions. Methods and code for the plots were derived from The Global Flow of People by Nikola Sander, Guy J. About the data We analyzed data for each crop commodity per country per measurement over the most recent three years for which sufficient data were available (2009-2011).
Why we'd be lost without the suburbs | David Shariatmadari Are the suburbs what make Britain great? Should Reginald Perrin have thanked his lucky stars for a middle-management job, cul-de-sac home and peaceful, if monotonous existence? Daniel Finkelstein writes that Sunshine Desserts – the company that drove Perrin to distraction in the late David Nobbs’s sitcom – represents “the height of civilisation”. He says: “The HR department of a children’s shoe brand has never launched a war. And of course he’s right. But it’s not the pinnacle of civilisation, and there’s no reason our quest for fulfilment should end at Acacia Avenue (is that really where Finkelstein himself finds it?) Suburbia might look like a comforting embrace, but there’s a risk of suffocation. It doesn’t have to be kicking the dog, though. “The rain falls hard on a humdrum town. The same is evidently true across the Atlantic – where the white picket fence is an enduring emblem for home sweet home gone bad. Now, it would be easy to dismiss all this as sneering metropolitanism.

Central Railways leases its land to employees for growing vegetables in Mumbai : OFFTRACK Imam Ali Shaikh, 45, comes in to supervise his vegetable farm at 9 a.m. every Saturday. He lives in Mumbai but his ancestral home is in Azamgarh, Uttar Pradesh, and his family has been farming for as long as he can remember. So for Shaikh, the lush green field of lady's fingers has an almost therapeutic effect. The perfect rural getaway? Not quite. Unmindful of the crammed suburban trains hurtling past, his hired hands diligently work the rectangular patch. Welcome to the "Grow More Food" campaign of Central Railways, Mumbai. The revolution did indeed happen and the schemes were then forgotten. Until last year, trains on the world's largest suburban rail network crawled at a snail's pace and within scraping distance of nearly 14,500 hutments crowded into the vital 10-m safety zone sandwiched between the tracks. The Railways had to think of a way of keeping their property free of encroachers. Vegetables now grow on 260 acres of vacant land leased out to 187 railway staffers.
Overpopulation.Com - Flock Map of ‘vegetarian friendliness’ (number of vegetarian restaurants) in Europe by country Tip: See my list of the Most Common Mistakes in English. It will teach you how to avoid mistakes with commas, prepositions, irregular verbs, and much more (PDF Version). The original idea of this article was to create a map showing the percentage of population following a vegetarian diet, but it turned out to be impossible to find a reliable source of data for more than a handful of countries. Since there is correlation between supply and demand, I decided to create a map of the supply part instead (which, however, is affected by many other factors than just the percentage of vegetarians, e.g. tourism and overall wealth). The following map is based on the number on entries at HappyCow, the largest directory of vegetarian restaurants in the world, and shows the number of vegetarian restaurants per 1 million inhabitants. By the way, I have written several educational ebooks.
Veggies alongside railway tracks safe: Lab The CR had asked the laboratory to conduct the tests after several media reports raised concerns over the presence of heavy metals in vegetables grown along railway tracks. A recent report by a government accredited food testing laboratory has found that vegetables grown along railway tracks on Central Railway (CR), which are fed by water from storm water drains, are safe for human consumption. While talking about the report, chief spokesperson of the CR, VA Malegaonkar said, 15 samples were collected from 10 locations on the CR’s suburban network. The locations are: Raoli Junction, Lokmanya Tilak Terminus, Kurla car shed, Mulund, Parel, Juinagar, Mankhurd, Airoli, Ghansoli and Panvel. The vegetables tested included red leafy greens, black-eyed beans, lady’s fingers, sorrel leaves and spinach. Rule 57 of the Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, 2008, lists permissible limits of heavy metals in food items. The CR earns at least Rs16 lakh annually from this activity.
