 NEW ON CD-ROM: The conference proceedings of the "6th International Renewable Energy Storage Conference and Exhibition" (IRES 2011), Berlin/Germany, November 28-30, 2011, by EUROSOLAR and the World Council for Renewable Energy (WCRE), February 2012
The IRES 2011 attracted attendance from more than 40 countries with 600 attendees and repeated the success of the previous year. Directed by scientific conference chair Professor Dirk Uwe Sauer (RWTH Aachen University) experts from Germany and abroad discussed the technologies, available and in development, for storing energy generated from renewable resources at the Berlin Congress Center bcc for three days. Alongside around 100 presentations, the participants engaged in a lively exchange on the rapid advance of energy storage technology worldwide. The CD-ROM of the IRES 2011 contains more than 2,000 pages of material and gives you a profound insight into the matter.
Detailed information including a list of all presentations, papers, posters and materials included in the IRES 2011 proceedings are viewable at www.eurosolar.org

Time for Code RED - the Renewable Earth Decade
After ending the reign of nuclear power, time to end fossil fuel burning
While in Durban the appalling plan was hatched to maintain collective inaction for almost another decade, a team of Russian and US scientists readied their Powerpoint presentation for an American Geophysical Union meeting in San Fransciso. It reported of the discovery of vast new and powerful methane plumes rising from the shallow seabed along the Siberian coastline and escaping directly into the atmosphere. A greenhouse gas 20-70 times more powerful than carbon dioxide, the massive Arctic methane store, if melted, is capable of triggering uncontrollable and abrupt climate change.
The final alarm has now been sounded: time for ringing in Code RED, the Renewable Earth Decade.

 WCRE Press Release, 14 December 2011
Great fanfare surrounded recent announcements regarding the purported adoption of nuclear power by South Africa and Nigeria. This fallacious path is hailed by some misguided leaders as the 'right to nuclear power' by the poor - perpetuating the 60-year old fantasy that splitting the atom is key to unlocking development.

WCRE Press Release 12 December 2011 After COP-out 17: Code RED
Durban rings death knell for emissions based negotiations control: rise of a renewable energy path to climate control can no longer wait
For the 17th time the global community's attempts to control the explosion in greenhouse gas emissions has failed miserably - a tragic yet predictable outcome. The reasons were only in part power-politics-as-usual by the polluting countries, trapped in an economic model rewarding short term profit over humanity's survival.
