British Antarctic Base closes again
The UK's Halley base in Antartica has closed again with scientists having to leave their ongoing experiments behind; the closure is due to uncertainty about nearby ice (the station sits on the Brunt ice shelf) which is starting to break up and may cause a safety issue in the future
Heathrow expansion threatens environment
Plans for a third runway at Heathrow Airport in London have raised significant concerns over the damage that might be caused by new flights paths; the planes would fly over south-west London disturbing animals that live in areas like Richmond Park, as well as creating noise pollution for people who live there
Rising emissions in Australia
As steel and aluminium production in Australia continues to grow, the energy requirements needed to match this production are also on the rise; although energy use in other sectors such as agriculture has dropped, the production of liquified natural gas has grown by 7.3% which is adding to the country's carbon emissions and not helping it achieve it's greenhouse gas emissions goal
