UK SCOTLAND Edinburgh -- 23 Dec 2010 -- Scottish Climate Change Minister Roseanna Cunningham at the Royal Botanical Gardens in Edinburgh, Scotland today (Thurs) as she announced that more than one quarter of Scotland's energy now comes from renewables. Scotland's electricity generation rose 3% to some 51,325 GWh (Gigawatt Hours), 24% of which was exported in 2009. Renewable electricity generation rose 20% to 10, 744 GWh and there was a 37% increase in electricity generated from wind, solar and wave power - though the increase was mostly in the wind sector - in 2009 -- Picture by Jonathan Mitchell | Lightroom Photos

EARTH Antarctica -- 17 Feb 2002 -- Several large, irregularly shaped icebergs are floating in the Weddell Sea, east of the Antarctic Peninsula, in this true-color MODIS image from February 17, 2002. The location of several of the bergs has changed little over the last three months. Similar slow-movers can be seen just to the east of the Larsen Ice Shelf, which hugs the eastern coast of the Peninsula. The northernmost of those two bergs is designated A38b; the southernmost one is A38a. These bergs were once part of an iceberg greater than 2,700 square miles that broke off the Ronne Ice Shelf (to the south) back in 1998. While the waters of the Weddell Sea in the area ought to be deep enough to float those bergs, it is possible that they have run aground on a topographic high, or ridge, in the sea floor. However, little is known about the underwater topography of that region, and it is also possible that the bergs are simply so massive that they resist being moved by surface wind or ocean currents. While four years might seem like a long time for an iceberg to hang around, these are certainly no record holders. A berg that broke off the Ross Ice Shelf (on the other side of Antarctica) drifted north and went aground south of Australia. That berg calved in 1987, and hasn't really moved in ten years. While the big bergs have not moved much in the span of time between these images, there is a big difference in the amount of sea ice present in the two images. In general, the rounder chunks of i
