Climate Change Series: Energy Innovation And Nuclear Power

Climate Change Series: Energy Innovation And Nuclear Power WBUR Climate Change Series: Energy Innovation And Nuclear Power. By Richard Lester. This image of the United States at night is a composite assembled from data acquired by the Suomi NPP satellite in April and October 2012. The image was made possible by the satellite’s “day-night band” of the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS), which detects light in a range of wavelengths from green to near-infrared and uses filtering techniques to observe dim signals such as city lights, gas flares, auroras, wildfires, and reflected moonlight.

We need to completely restructure how we create and use electricity. 013/03/06/climate-energy-innovation-nuclear-power-richard-lester
