Electricity from the ocean depths could power entire islands

At present, pilot plants are only able to generate a fraction of what a large wind turbine can. But on the positive side, ocean thermal plants can generate power 24 hours a day.

If I was tasked with helping an island state produce its own clean energy, I would first look at geothermal, a more mature technology with better economics. That’s because the areas most favorable for OTEC plants typically have significant potential for geothermal electricity, produced by drilling wells on land and using high-temperature fluids from those wells.

Still, OTEC could play a useful role in tackling several challenges at once. Take cooling. You can take the cool seawater and use as a form of air conditioning, as two resorts in French Polynesia are doing. You can also use this cool water in aquaculture to raise cold-water fish such as salmon, or as a way of keeping surface water cool during marine heatwaves threatening fish farming in New Zealand. It may even be possible to use OTEC plants to produce hydrogen as an export commodity in small island states.

the apple orchard
lives along the shadows
of a love that lingers

sometimes in the gallows

of a destiny told to me
once upon a story made we

a poplar seed

clear and concise
like the apples we cut and slice

a sprinkling of cinnamon takes two
seconds more

for the answers live within your heart
which I’ve always adored

Não se pode apagar o ontem, mas com sabedoria é possível corrigir alguns erros

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Não se pode apagar o ontem, mas com sabedoria é possível corrigir alguns erros. Enquanto todos falam que o ontem é um momento vivido e [que não pode ser modificado], porque as palavras são tardias, e nossos atos se tornam incorrigíveis, a gente não pode se punir, não pode parar de viver por causa disso. O problema é que muitos se punem! Punem com sentimentos de morte, de desprezo por si, por não conseguir verbalizar a situação, não conseguir expressar o quanto a dor é imensurável. E nem precisa! As dificuldades são reconhecíveis. Cada situação, tem o seu valor e seu cuidado. O que não pode é ficar acuado, se robotizar, diminuir inclusive. É preciso olhar os erros, é necessário ter coragem para respirar, olhar para aquela situação, reconhecer a importância e o resultado maior de tudo aquilo que fere, e também tem alguma coisa de bom para se tirar…

Yesterday’s Cucumber Soup

snapshotsincursive

What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Fab Foodstuff: Yesterday’s Cucumber Soup. Here we go again with another cold soup option. It may sound like an oxymoron, but actually if I called it a Cucumber Smoothie, would you drink it? Perhaps. Tell me this, how many times have you been served ice water with a cucumber slice in it? Or grabbed a hydrating plant-based juice beverage at the corner convenience store? Get the picture. It’s all about the perspective. If you find it challenging to eat cold soup, or just plain WRONG…by all means, pour it into a glass and slurp away. To quote William Shakespeare, “A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” Carry on.

YESTERDAY’S CUCUMBER SOUP

Ingredients:

4 mini seedless cucumbers, peeled and chopped

1 gala apple, peeled, cored, and chopped

1 green onion, chopped

2-3 basil leaves

1/4 cup almond milk, unsweetened

1/4 cup Greek yogurt
