The nuclear situation at Fukushima with radiation is not promising, but here are some things that are;<\/p>\n

Global<\/p>\n

Focus on the positive things that are being done helps, like Germany\u2019s choice to lead the transition to renewable energy<\/a>. G8 re-thinking nuclear energy<\/a> last week.<\/p>\n

Think about Concentrated Solar Power (CSP)<\/a>, which gives hope for renewable energy on the global level, too.<\/p>\n

Check out a blue goo<\/a>\u00a0called DeCon Gel<\/a>, an innovative way to clean up radiation.<\/p>\n

Watch the dynamic duo team<\/a>, Bill Clinton & Mike Bloomberg, go to Brazil to tackle Climate Change with innovation and capital at hand to focus on cities.<\/p>\n

Local<\/p>\n

On the local level, if you are part of World Team Now’<\/a>s (WTN) California constituency, will you please consider being a volunteer for Kids Ocean Day<\/a>?\u00a0 Join in tomorrow with the youth to clean up the beach, and help deliver a message with aerial art about the oceans. Kid’s Ocean Day<\/a> is an event World Team Now \u00a0loves because it makes a difference!<\/p>\n

If you are part of WTN\u2019s New York constituency, consider the World Science Festival Events<\/a> starting tonight until the 6th<\/sup> throughout NYC. Here you can indulge in events:\u00a0Biorhythm: Music and the Body<\/a>, The Radical New Science of Longevity<\/a>, \u00a0to the timely event that the nuclear industry might benefit from:\u00a0Illusion of Certainty: Risk, Probability and Chance<\/a>. \u00a0You can watch live<\/a>\u00a0events\u00a0where ever you are in the world, so really it can be local– to you.<\/p>\n

Universal<\/p>\n

On the universal level, NASA has \u201cFrom Earth to the Solar System\u201d (FETTSS). <\/strong>\u00a0A continuation of the well-received International Year of Astronomy 2009\u00a0From Earth to the Universe<\/a>\u00a0program, and here perspective can be broadened to consider universal possibilities with this collection of powerful images<\/a>.<\/p>\n

SPACE WEATHER: What is a storm on the Sun like? Most of the time when we talk about \u201cthe weather,\u201d we are referring to the state of Earth\u2019s atmosphere that gives us rain, wind, and temperature changes. The \u201cspace weather\u201d produced by the Sun extends deep into the Solar System. It drives some of the greatest changes in our local space environment\u2014affecting our magnetosphere, ionosphere, atmosphere, and potentially our climate. The Sun contains very powerful magnetic fields and they can become twisted and tangled, storing enormous amounts of energy. Luckily, Earth\u2019s magnetosphere acts as a shield, and its atmosphere absorbs the dangerous radiation, protecting us..
