Nevertheless, global strategies and action plans for the alternative and sustainable energy sources are being prepared and adopted. These advocate the increased use of renewable energies, development of measures energy efficiency and sustainable energy sources and promotion alternative fuels.
ICAT 2010 will be the latest in a series of biannual conferences which discuss, evaluate and share recent and future developments in alternative technologies for a sustainable future.
This year's edition will focus on world fossil fuel resources and showcase promising technology and policy pathways for a sustainable future. A special focus will be placed on the need for greener and cleaner fuels for future automotive power train systems. 10/11/2010 - 12/10/2010 Shanghai, China The event will focus on engineering low-carbon business and highlighting innovative solutions related to the design, commercialisation and use of services, processes and products that are feasible, economical, and environmentally-friendly. It will also feature theories, engineering and technological progressions in low carbon research and practices in facilitating relevant technology and practice adoption.
Specific topics will include:
- carbon footprint, accounting, and trading,

A space borne mission to observe such activities is in the planning stages.
This workshop, therefore, aims to cover scientific and technical issues associated with remotely sensing vegetation fluorescence. The workshop will also focus on application areas, modelling activities (canopy fluorescence radiative transfer, direct and inverse signal modelling), ground and airborne campaigns, new instrumentation (field, aircraft, satellite), studies on atmospheric effects and correction methods, new fluorescence retrieval techniques such as spectral fitting methods, access to actual photosynthesis (relationship to radiation and diurnal variations, to CO2 flux, complementarities with Physiological Reflectance Index, etc.), and detecting and monitoring vegetation stress (robust indicators, impact of spatial variability). 20/11/2010 Apex House

29/11/2010 - 02/12/2010 Eilat, Israel The 2nd Mediterranean Photonics Conference, organised by the association of engineers and architects in Israel, takes place from 29 November to 2 December.
The Call for papers includes topics such as Nano-photonics devices, telecoms, fiber optics, optical switching, etc. The deadline for a summary is 10 September 2010.
30/11/2010 - 01/12/2010 London, UK Fluid machines are, collectively, the largest consumers of energy in most industrial plants. For the manufacturing sector, they can be considered as having a high impact vis-a-vis the environment.
There is a significant amount of environmental legislation and fiscal controls (e.g. directives concerning energy using products, noise regulation laws, carbon dioxide emissions tariffs) which impact the design and operation of fluid machinery. More stringent requirements are inevitable as stricter global, European and national targets are imposed.
Fortunately, reducing environmental impact need not always mean increased cost. There is significant scope for financial savings, such as through reduced energy usages, improved design for remanufacturing and reuse of components.
This event aims to raise awareness of legislative requirements and showcase best practices being adopted by manufacturers and users, highlighting where opportunities exist to reduce the wider impact of fluid machinery and work in harmony with environmental requirements. 30/11/2010 Town House
