Hormuz entra in fabbrica: come la geopolitica alza i costi del nichel
https://www.metallirari.com/hormuz-entra-fabbrica-geopolitica-alza-costi-nichel/
Il rimbalzo del nichel (+27% nel 2026) porta sollievo ai grandi produttori, ma la crisi di approvvigionamento dello zolfo mette sotto pressione gli impianti indonesiani.

How Clean Air Warms the Earth
Today, we’re exploring a microscopic landscape completely invisible to the naked eye—a world of 'ghost' particles that control both our climate and our own biology.

In 2020, we rightly moved to clean our air by slashing shipping emissions. But in doing so, we triggered a 'Termination Shock'—ripping away the mask and unmasking the full heat of the planet. Today, we’re looking at how cleaning our lungs accidentally set our oceans on fire.

The Termination Shock: Our Accidental Sunshield
What if the biggest environmental win of the last decade actually hit the accelerator on global warming? We’ve spent years in a climate tug-of-war, with greenhouse gases pulling temperatures up while an invisible blanket of sulfate pollution from ships acted as an accidental sunshield, bouncing sunlight back into space.

This is the reason the assholes running #Iran have been getting away with torturing 10s of millions of #women over decades - the rest of the world is too dependent on an open Hormuz for fundamental things such as #fertilizer #nitrogen #sulfur which underpin #agriculture ( #employment for 100s of millions) and #food (for billions). Why the entire #middleeast continues to oppress women!

Little known fact: many lithium batteries have direct connections to the Alberta Tar Sands, the largest and most destructive industrial project on Earth.
Max Wilbert's latest essay explores this topic by looking at a newer type of battery called lithium-sulfur and the links between sulfur planned for use at the Thacker Pass lithium mine and the fossil fuel industry.

Environmental Impacts of #Geothermal Energy
Published Mar 5, 2013
Union of Concerned Scientists"The most widely developed type of geothermal power plant (known as #hydrothermal plants) are located near #geologic “#HotSpots” where hot molten rock is close to the earth’s crust and produces hot water. In other regions enhanced geothermal systems (or hot dry rock geothermal), which involve drilling into Earth’s surface to reach deeper geothermal resources, can allow broader access to geothermal energy."
[...]
"Some geothermal plants also produce small amounts of #mercury emissions, which must be mitigated using mercury filter technology. Scrubbers can reduce air emissions, but they produce a watery #sludge composed of the captured materials, including #sulfur, #vanadium, #silica compounds, chlorides, #arsenic, mercury, #nickel, and other heavy metals. This #ToxicSludge often must be disposed of at hazardous waste sites."
[...]
"Land #subsidence, a phenomenon in which the land surface sinks, is sometimes caused by the removal of water from geothermal reservoirs. Most geothermal facilities address this risk by re-injecting wastewater back into geothermal reservoirs after the water’s heat has been captured.
"Hydrothermal plants are sited on geological “hot spots," which tend to have higher levels of #earthquake risk. There is evidence that hydrothermal plants can lead to an even greater earthquake frequency. Enhanced geothermal systems (hot dry rock) can also increase the risk of small earthquakes. In this process, water is pumped at high pressures to fracture underground hot rock reservoirs similar to technology used in natural gas hydraulic #fracturing. (See How Natural Gas Works for more information.) Earthquake risk associated with enhanced geothermal systems can be minimized by siting plants an appropriate distance away from major fault lines. When a geothermal system is sited near a heavily populated area, constant monitoring and transparent communication with local communities is also necessary."

Curiosity Cracked Open a Rock on #Mars And Found a Huge Surprise
When the rover rolled its 899-kilogram (1,982-pound) body over the rock, the rock broke open, revealing yellow crystals of elemental #sulfur: #brimstone. Although sulfates are fairly common on Mars, this is the first time sulfur has been found on the red planet in its pure elemental form.

Sulfur cycle (Biogeochemical cycle 🔄)
The important sulfur cycle is a biogeochemical cycle in which the sulfur moves between rocks, waterways and living systems. It is important in geology as it affects many minerals and in life because sulfur is an essential element, being a constituent of many proteins and cofactors, and sulfur compounds can be used as oxidants or ...

#Extremophile #fish of the #Poeciliidae have specific adaptations to live in geothermally heated sulfur-containing waters, e.g. the species Poecilia sulphuraria and Gambusia eurystoma in Baños del Azufre, #Mexico. Adaptations are to deal with toxic effects of #sulfur and #temperature limits above 40°C.
