1944réf. 233061944. East Ohio Gas explosion photographs recording the October 20 1944 liquefied natural gas disaster in Cleveland Ohio one of the deadliest industrial catastrophes in city history. The unidentified photographer assembled photos of collapsed gas tanks burned automobiles leveled brick buildings ash fields and rescue activity after the blast and fire that tore through the East 55th Street and St. Clair Avenue district. The event killed roughly 130 people and destroyed a broad swath of the surrounding neighborhood after gas escaped entered sewers and gutters and ignited across the district. Photo archive of 14 silver gelatin photographs photos measure 2.75" x 4.75" mounted on 10.5" x 13" black album leaf Cleveland Ohio October 1944. A few carry captions including "East Ohio Gas Explosion." The strongest images center on the damaged storage plant itself including two views of the large spherical gas holders with torn metal skins and collapsed structures at their base. Other photographs move outward into the destroyed neighborhood: a burned sedan sits twisted in rubble; brick factory walls stand roofless and hollow; streets are reduced to ash mud and broken masonry; and leafless tree trunks rise from a flattened landscape where houses and smaller structures had stood. One photograph shows a crowd of civilians and workers gathered amid debris before a shattered industrial building. Another isolates a man standing in the wreckage. A second group portrait includes several men in coats and hats beside uniformed personnel probably police or fire officials. The repeated emphasis on wrecked tanks gutted streets and pulverized building shells makes the archive a sequential record of blast damage rather than a general view of a fire scene. The East Ohio plant was an early liquefied natural gas facility and the 1944 disaster became a turning point in the history of gas storage in American cities. A Bureau of Mines investigation followed and later historical accounts note that the fire destroyed 79 homes 2 factories and 217 automobiles while forcing new attention to safer low temperature gas storage methods. The destruction covered roughly a square mile on Cleveland's east side and exposed the danger of placing large fuel reserves beside dense working class neighborhoods and urban utility systems. Light wear and chipping to album leaf; images remain clear and well preserved. Overall very good condition. These photographs preserve that system after failure when industrial modernity appeared not as progress but as wreckage displaced residents and a city forced to rethink how fuel infrastructure should be built. unknown

réf. A9780309151764Paperback / softback. New. Emissions of carbon dioxide from the burning of fossil fuels have ushered in a new epoch where human activities will largely determine the evolution of Earth's climate. Because carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is long lived it can effectively lock the Earth and future generations into a range of impacts some of which could become very severe. Emissions reductions decisions made today matter in determining impacts experienced not just over the next few decades but in the coming centuries and millennia. According to Climate Stabilization Targets: Emissions Concentrations and Impacts Over Decades to Millennia important policy decisions can be informed by recent advances in climate science that quantify the relationships between increases in carbon dioxide and global warming related climate changes and resulting impacts such as changes in streamflow wildfires crop productivity extreme hot summers and sea level rise. One way to inform these choices is to consider the projected climate changes and impacts that would occur if greenhouse gases in the atmosphere were stabilized at a particular concentration level. The book quantifies the outcomes of different stabilization targets for greenhouse gas concentrations using analyses and information drawn from the scientific literature. Although it does not recommend or justify any particular stabilization target it does provide important scientific insights about the relationships among emissions greenhouse gas concentrations temperatures and impacts. Climate Stabilization Targets emphasizes the importance of 21st century choices regarding long-term climate stabilization. It is a useful resource for scientists educators and policy makers among others. paperback
