Image via Cargolifter.com, via the Guardian The role of airplanes have long been a tough piece to fit into the puzzle of transitioning to a low-carbon future — the huge amounts of jet fuel they burn make them some of the most notorious emitters on the planet. But, industrialized societies have also grown accustomed to the convenience of air travel, and many rely as well upon air freight.

Un-ironic NYC, photo: David Trawin via flickr This all just leaves me shaking my head before it falls into my hands: Urban Outfitters is opening three new stores in New York City this year (as if they need another branch, to join the Flintstone’s background of Chase Bank, Duane Reade and Starbucks…) and the one at Broadway and 100th Street on the Upper West Side will get a faux-local treatment–the facade of the outlet being divided up to look like a hat shop, a hardwar… Read the full story on TreeHugger

Photo by bwohack The Düsseldorf International Airport and seven other airports in Germany have decided that bees are the best “biodetectives” for monitoring local air quality. By regularly testing the honey of hives placed on airport premises, researchers are able to see what toxins are in the air and being captured by the flora and fauna. From planes themselves to the buses, taxis, freight trucks and other vehicles used at airports, ensuring the air pollution stays under regulated levels is important; bees seem to be the perfect for the task….

Photo via Green BP has announced plans to send cash to suffering gas stations in the US — which is pretty revealing. It’s evidence that the numerous boycotts against BP that have been orchestrated across the nation are indeed having a very distinct, very significant impact. Those boycotts and the bad PR have had a serious and immediate financial impact, and will validate such action in the eyes of many activists. But BP plans to push back….
