The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement (BOEMRE) released a new report evaluating how climate change may affect the environmental conditions measured and used in mathematical modeling for oil-spill trajectory analysis in the Arctic region. —BOEMRE Director Michael R.

If current rates of decline continue through 2020, the state will need to reduce emissions at a rate of 4.97% each year in the decade between 2020 and 2030, and produce even steeper declines in the period from 2030 to 2050, if it is to meet current climate goals. But the effects of these efforts seem to be reaching a plateau.

The California Energy Commission adopted its 2014 Integrated Energy Policy Report (IEPR) Update, which outlines, among many things, how the state is working to transform the transportation system to zero- and near-zero technologies and fuels to meet its climate and clean air goals.

As drilling technology advances, conventional oil reserves become harder to find, and climate change contributes to melting sea ice, the Arctic has moved up on the list of priorities in oil company board rooms. After having watched Shell fumble its Arctic campaign, Statoil put its drilling plans off the coast of Alaska on ice.

There’s also a section on how pilots are trained to deal with various scenarios — including cabin depressurization, malfunctioning landing gear, holes in the fuselage and sudden gusts of wind on the runway that force what is called a “go-around” — when a pilot suddenly aborts the landing and sends the plane barreling straight back into the sky.

We’re also exploring and assessing new frontiers for oil and gas development from Alaska to the Mid- and South Atlantic. We have to discover and produce cleaner, renewable sources of energy with less of the carbon pollution that threatens our climate. But let’s be honest—it’s not the long-term solution to our energy challenge.

The factors that affect local sea-level projections include steric variations; wind-driven differences in ocean heights; gravitational and deformational effects (sea-level. fingerprints) of melting of ice from Alaska, Greenland, and Antarctica; and vertical land motions along the coast.
