ACTUALITY AND ODOURS :  BEIJING DREAMS OF A BLUE SKY              

For the 2008 Olympic Games, Beijing dreams of a blue sky and the city multiplies the tactics to counter pollution On the place Tiananmen, it is not rare to see an idler carrying a mask for better breathing. In 2005, a study of the European space agency concluded that the Chinese capital and the neighbouring areas had the most nitrogen dioxide level in the world. This result did not prevent Wang Dawei, director of the Air quality within the agency of the environmental protection of Beijing, to post a confidence with any test last Thursday. In order not to miss its blow, Mr. Dawei envisaged an operation-shock. During a two months period, more than two million cars will have to remain motionless. In order to encourage the  Pekinese drivers, the authorities promise paid holidays and free subscriptions with public transport. From June 25 to September 17, most of the 3000 building sites of construction of the City will stop. The polluting factories and power stations will be closed and the roads will be regularly sprinkled to avoid dust. Planes and rockets will be even used to disperse in the clouds of silver iodide or liquid nitrogen in order to cause rains and to thus get rid of the suspended particles. “Progress was slow, but without all these projects, the quality of the air would have been worse than it is currently”, supports Mr. Wang. “There are ecological problems, but our Chinese friends make what that they can to prevent them and find solutions”, ensured on its side the president of the Olympic international Committee (CIO), Jacques Rogge

Radioactive waste was discovered in Niger, in a street of Akokan. They would come from a mine worked by Areva according to the Commission of independent research and information on the radioactivity (Criirad)

GREEN COAL:  A company based in Panama, developed a new green coal  production technology which recently received the price Von Maritus for the environment, delivered by the  Chamber of Commerce and Industry Brazil-Germany. The system takes part in the reduction of pollution and the deforestation while offering new opportunities to the small producers. This industrial process uses metal furnaces rather than brick furnaces. First it makes possible to reduce the time of carbonization to 8h whereas the traditional cycle lasts between 10 and 15 days. Second advantage, it is more sparing out of raw material: it needs only 1,5 m3 of wood to produce 1 m3 of coal whereas the traditional method in need 2 m3. In the environmental plan, the furnace functions has temperatures ranging between 1000 and 1100.C which makes it possible to burn completely the polluting particles. It releases with final only from the steam and the carbon dioxide which are partly re-used in the cycle of production for the wood seasoning.
