Nena Baker: Hazardous chemistry of everyday things.

Nena Baker: The Body Toxic. Hazardous chemistry of everyday things.

Phthalates in plastic; bisphenol A in food and beverage containers; flame retardants in furniture and perfluorinated chemicals in food wrappers.

Should we be concerned about the effects of these exposures on our health?

Powerful argument for urgent reforms to our nation’s notoriously toothless toxics laws, and a clarion for greener, cleaner chemicals in consumer products

The London Array: Can offshore wind power Europe?

The largest offshore wind farm in the world to go online by 2012, powering 750,000 homes in the London metro area.

A potential to generate and sell massive amounts of clean electricity to continental Europe.

The stretch of Scottish coastline used for the array dubbed “the Saudi Arabia of renewable power,”

The first stage of the project will build 630 megawatts of capacity (roughly 25 percent of London’s power needs).
Some estimates put U.K. offshore potential at 25 gigawatts. U.K. consumes 45 gigawatts of steady generation.

Nanoparticles Can Damage DNA Without Crossing Cellular Barrier | Popular Science

Nanoparticles Can Damage DNA Without Crossing Cellular Barrier. Scientists know that nanoparticles can damage DNA in cells through direct interaction.

Now, though, it appears that nanoparticles can also mess with DNA on the far side of a cellular barrier, by creating signaling molecules -- a never-before-seen phenomenon.

Realization that indirect exposure might matter as much as direct exposure suggests greater caution in deploying nanoparticles within the human body -- especially after the recent report of the first nanotech deaths from environmental exposure in China.
