Review of the week from 19.10.2009 to 10.25.2009. Ecology of the Russian cities will improve the Minister of Natural Resources Yuri Trutnev last week expressed his belief that by 2012 the number of environmentally disadvantaged cities in Russia will fall more than doubled. Today, 207 cities of Russia the average concentration of one or more pollutants per year exceeds maximum permissible concentration. The minister promised that this figure will drop to 80 cities. According to Mr. Trutnev his department is now engaged in the development of quantitative criteria for safety and comfort of the environment human habitation, and in 2010 will develop a mechanism for government support to reduce and eliminate environmental damage as a result of economic activity. Minister Trutnev also once again reminded that the 2016 fee for emissions into the environment will increase by 20 times. And for enterprises will be introduced economic incentives to move to a new, environmentally friendly equipment and cleaning devices to reduce the negative impacts on the environment. Rosprirodnadzor suggests that the fines on the conservation proposal C to direct funds received as compensation for damage environment, on environmental activities performed at last week’s Federal Service for Supervision of Natural Resources (Rosprirodnadzor).

Power Clean electric motor – 90 kW, and its lithium battery can hold zhelezofosfatnye energy content of 40 kilowatt-hours.

This is enough for 160 miles. A maximum speed of a garbage truck 80 miles per hour. Equipped with a motor truck in Edison Kirklees busy in collecting all kinds of waste from 25 newly installed containers for separate waste collection. Sorted garbage new Electric transported to a local center of sorting, recycling and waste incineration. Valuable junk gets to be recycled, and everything else – in a special oven, which feed a small power plant, generating electricity from waste. At the factory for recycling truck and charge its battery. And for the incinerator, this energy consumption – a drop in the net because it provides megawatts of electricity. Environmentalists have appreciated such an effective bunch of ‘garbage in power – electric truck’ as a perfect example of caring for the environment and expressed the hope that the first ‘on the garbage truck garbage’ in the near future there will be many followers in both the UK and in other countries are not indifferent to environmental issues.

The authorities refer to a provision in the relevant international agreement in 1986, which allows 'Research on whales with possible fatal outcome. " Experts believe that biofuels produced from waste better biofuel …

How many disputes and there was around this energy source. Many oppose the distribution in the world of biofuels, assuming that its production costs are too valuable acreage and grown on their crops. More experts are in favor of rapid spread of biofuels as a source of safe and clean energy. Continuing through the research and development that improve the efficiency of production and use bio-fuels. For example, experts from more than 30 countries participating at the International Conference "Biofuels as a driving force for sustainable development 'in Brazil, came to the conclusion that the production Priority should be used biofuel technology to get it out of waste. Previously, different countries have actively promoted the idea of biofuels from corn, canola, corn.
