Positive and Negative Impacts of Warming in Greenland
Ove Rosbach, who has fished the Arctic for decades, blamed the decline on warmer ocean currents flowing to the north. He said a similar phenomenon occurred in the 1950s.Cambridge graduate banned from Palace of Westminster - Telegraph
A Cambridge graduate has been barred from coming within one kilometre of the Palace of Westminster after leading hundreds of people in a "rush" on the House of Commons.
Tamsin Omond, the grand daughter of a baronet, was one of around 600 people who stormed the St Stephens Entrance on Monday night in an attempt to recreate the suffragettes protest at Parliament 100 years ago.
No one managed to get into the building but six people were arrested, including Miss Omond, and one person was taken to hospital.
...
Miss Omond, who has considered training to become a priest, sat her final exam in an MA from the Open University in Ecology and Social Justice on the day of the protest.
She added: "I am very glad not to be going to prison and I will now be spending a lot more time studying, but this is a growing movement of which women are a key part and we will not rest until we have secured a safe future for our children."
A coalition of groups known as the Climate Suffragettes, including the Women's Institute and more extreme groups Climate Rush and Plane Stupid, organised the protest.
...
Miss Omond and another four activists from the campaign group Plane Stupid will face trial at City of Westminster Magistrates' Court on November 12 over February's rooftop protest at Parliament. They face 51 weeks in prison or a £5,000 charge.
