Westmont Rooftop Solar Project, 2014 and 2017

⁣ The Westmont Distribution Center, with its rooftop solar project, is located in San Pedro, California. At the time of its installation in 2017, Westmont was the most powerful rooftop solar project in the US, with the exception of Apple’s new headquarters.

The 2 million square feet (or 185,806 square meters) of panels have a bifacial design, meaning they can collect reflected light from the surface of the roof in addition to direct sunlight. This enables the panels to generate up to 45 percent more power than traditional rooftop solar panels and power 5,000 nearby homes.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣

Miami Red Tide, May 2017 and June 2018

In 2018, tides of harmful algae blooms overtook the waters surrounding Miami, Florida, forcing the closure of at least six public beaches. The increased growth of dark algae discolors the typically clear waters, hence the “red tide” name. While it is difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of this phenomenon, red tides tend to follow intense storm seasons, and they may also be fueled by agricultural runoff bringing large amounts of unnatural fertilizers into the ocean.

This specific algae, Karenia brevis, produces toxic chemicals that can affect fish and beachgoers alike due to its neurotoxicity and irritative respiratory properties. Red tides can last anywhere from a few weeks to more than a year depending on ocean temperatures, sunlight, salinity, winds and currents.

Antarctic Sea Ice Melt, 2019

Sea ice breaks apart in various block sizes roughly 40 miles (or 64 kilometers) off the coast of Antarctica. Antarctic sea ice extends far north in the winter and retreats almost to the coastline every summer. The ice is frozen seawater that is usually less than 3 to 6 feet (or 0.9 to 1.8 meters) in thickness. Sea ice is significantly thinner than ice shelves, which are formed by glaciers, float in the sea and are up to 3,280 feet (or 1 kilometer) thick.

In the 1980s, Antarctica lost 40 billion tons (or 36.3 billion metric tons) of ice every year; in the last decade, that figure was estimated at a staggering 252 billion tons (229 billion metric tons) per year. When ice melts, it often exposes a darker area of soot and dirt beneath its surface and turns into darker liquid water once it is fully melted. Dark surfaces absorb more heat, and thus the accelerated melting of the world’s ice could initiate a feedback loop that further speeds up the warming process that’s causing the melting in the first place.

Colorado Tire Graveyard, March 2018 and August 2018

Tires are added to massive piles at the world’s largest tire dump located in Hudson, Colorado. The facility contains dozens of roughly 150-foot-wide (or 45 meters) sections filled with approximately 60 million scrap tires. Worldwide, an estimated 1.5 billion tires are discarded each year. Of that amount, more than half are burned for their fuel.

Australian Bushfires, December 31 2019

At the time of this photograph, this massive bushfire accounted for just a portion of the 38,000 square miles (or 98,420 square kilometers) that were torched by bushfires that started in September 2019 in New South Wales, Australia. This coastal area of the country contains eucalyptus trees, which release volatile oils when burned and thereby create massive embers that can quickly jump to other areas of the forest.

Climate conditions have not helped matters: 2019 was the warmest year in Australian history, and that — combined with the lowest rainfall since 1900 — created the dry conditions for the blaze to start and spread. After 240 straight days of fire, torrential rains arrived in February 2020 and ended the fire season.

An ancient water-based civilization on Lake Titicaca in Peru

The Uros civilization dates back over 4,500 years, making it one of the oldest tribes in South America. In order to flee persecution from the ever-expanding Incan empire, the Uros people sought refuge on the waters of Lake Titicaca where they built an isolated floating community from locally grown totura reed. By weaving and layering the reeds, they built houseboats, islands and platforms. These structures make up a floating village, an aquaculture farm and an artificial wetland all within a single living infrastructure. There are currently 2,629 people living on the collection of 91 totora reed islands, which have become one of Peru’s most popular tourist attractions.

An organic wastewater treatment system in the heart of Kolkata, India

Known as the “City of Joy,” the Indian city of Kolkata is home to over 14 million people. Its Bheri wastewater aquaculture system is a model for chemical-free water purification that doesn’t rely on coal power. This organic technology features 300 fish ponds that clean sewage while simultaneously producing food. Using a combination of sunshine, sewage, algae and bacteria, wastewater is broken down over the course of about 30 days.

The entire system serves multiple essential functions and saves the city millions of tax dollars: it’s a fishery, waste management system, agricultural field, rice paddy network and community hub for nearly 50,000 people. It’s also the city’s only way of cleaning the water before it enters the Bay of Bengal. Unfortunately, the system is under increasing threat due to a rapidly growing population and urban development.
