Morning Glory Pool, Yellowstone 🌈♨️

This geothermal spring gets its colors from heat-loving microbes, thriving in the extreme heat of Yellowstone’s volcanic environment. It’s stunning—but also a lesson in respecting nature. The vent has been partially blocked by human activity, altering its appearance over time.

Google, for the first time, inked an agreement to purchase geothermal energy for its facilities in Asia. The deal also marks the first geothermal power purchase agreement for Taiwan, according to the company. @theverge reports:

J'ai failli terminer la rando en t-shirt (0 vent, 3-4 C°). Observation d'une grande source d''eau chaude (100 C° dans le bassin bouillonnant et environ 40 quand elle s'écoule par des petits ruisseaux) et détection d'un secteur pour cet été via le tour de crête d'un massif de 600m d'altitude avec vue totale sur l'océan d'un côté et de plusieurs systèmes volcaniques/Hafnafjorður de l'autre.

Et là, la péninsule aura été platinée ! :yotsuba_pleased:

Ooooh. And I just found some articles about making #WindTurbines more #wildlife friendly (especially birds and bats, who are unfortunately affected). I'll be posting about those for #SolarPunkSunday. My vision of a #SolarPunk world involves #RenewableEnergy technologies that are safe for the environment, wildlife and humans. Some are location specific. Got hot springs? #Geothermal! A lot of sun? #Solar! Big tides? #Tidal energy. You get the idea...
