The tsunami in December 2004 exposed the vulnerability to tidal waves.

And our brains our celebrated brains reflect a drainage of a tidal marsh.

The kings of Shinar, of Ellasar of Elam, and Tidal, king of nations.

At first sight, they could include volcanoes, earthquakes, tidal waves and rising sea levels.

Last year in the Philippines, earthquakes and tidal waves resulted in the deaths of more than 6,000 people.

It happened in the days of Amraphel, king of Shinar, Arioch, king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, and Tidal, king of Goiim,

Additionally, satellite imagery had provided a unique opportunity to observe the propagation of the tidal wave itself during the time slot corresponding to its intense oceanic phase.

Each year building codes are ignored and zoning laws overlooked as communities expand into areas prone to earthquakes, landslides, floods, tidal surges, droughts, volcanic eruptions and high winds.

There are also relocation related and poverty related illnesses and illnesses of the Earth, such as the sinking and cracking of atolls, tidal waves and other environmental changes.

Emphasizing that the World Solar Programme 1996 2005 is aimed at encompassing all forms of new and renewable energy, including solar, thermal, photovoltaic, biomass, wind, hydro, tidal, ocean and geothermal forms,

Renewable energy systems encompass a broad, diverse array of technologies, including, solar photovoltaics, solar thermal power plants and heating cooling systems and wind, hydro, geothermal, biomass and marine tidal power systems.

36. Nearly half of the world apos s coastal ecosystems, including wetlands, tidal flats, saltwater marshes and mangrove swamps, are also threatened by land conversion associated with both urbanization and tourism.

Emphasizing that the World Solar Programme 1996 2005 is aimed at encompassing all forms of new and renewable energy, including solar, thermal, photovoltaic, biomass, wind, mini hydro, tidal, ocean and geothermal forms,

On 26 December 2004, tidal waves struck two thirds of Sri Lanka's coastal areas, leaving in their wake death and destruction of a scale hitherto unknown in our 2,500 year recorded history.

This may seem minor, but it is terrifying to hear rumor after rumor after rumor that another tidal wave, bigger than the last, will be coming at exactly 1 p.m., or perhaps tonight, or perhaps ...

Using quake and tidal sensors, speedy communications, alarm networks from radio to cell phones and disaster preparedness training in vulnerable regions, it will give people time to flee to higher ground before the waves strike.52

So my premise here is that nuclear energy puts out more carbon dioxide, puts out more air pollutants, enhances mortality more and takes longer to put up than real renewable energy systems, namely wind, solar, geothermal power, hydro tidal wave power.

Recent developments in wind, solar, tidal, bio energy, geothermal, and fuel cell technology are transforming the scope for low carbon energy production. Aside from saving the planet, these technologies could open up new investment opportunities, deliver affordable energy, and sustain growth.

In addition to that stark assessment of the state of the world a result of the failure of the human conscience we have also been struck by natural disasters, including floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tidal waves and, sadly, many others.

However, the hurricane that recently struck a number of islands in the Caribbean, the devastating tidal wave in northern Papua New Guinea and extreme drought conditions in many countries, including mine, demonstrate the vulnerability of small island States to natural disasters.

I delivered a lecture in which I described history as, on the whole, a tidal wave of human suffering and brutality, and Mr. Teszler came up to me afterwards with gentle reproach and said, You know, Doctor, human beings are fundamentally good.

Indeed, the 26 December tragedy has highlighted once again the need to create a worldwide warning and prevention system covering not only tsunamis, but also all other destructive phenomena, such as the effects of rising sea levels caused by global warming, tidal waves and hurricanes.

And in doing that, I want to offer you a vision, an imagined future, if you will, of how, as the poet Seamus Heaney has put it, Once in a lifetime the longed for tidal wave of justice can rise up, and hope and history rhyme.

Emphasizing that the increased use and promotion of all forms of new and renewable energy for sustainable development, including solar thermal, photovoltaic, biomass, wind, hydro, tidal, ocean and geothermal forms, make a significant contribution towards the achievement of the internationally agreed development goals, including the Millennium Development Goals,

4. Encourages national Governments and relevant stakeholders to make more use of the World Solar Programme 1996 2005 as one of the vehicles to boost the development and utilization of solar energy technologies and all forms of new and renewable energy, including biomass, wind, mini hydro, tidal, ocean and geothermal forms

Emphasizing that the increased use and promotion of all forms of new and renewable energy for sustainable development, including solar thermal, photovoltaic, biomass, wind, hydro, tidal, ocean and geothermal forms, could make a significant contribution towards the achievement of sustainable development and the internationally agreed development goals, including the Millennium Development Goals,

Emphasizing that the increased use and promotion of all forms of new and renewable energy for sustainable development, including solar thermal, photovoltaic, biomass, wind, hydro, tidal, ocean and geothermal forms, could make a significant contribution towards the achievement of sustainable development and the internationally agreed development goals, including the Millennium Development Goals,

It is a well known fact that during the June November period the region is prone to hurricanes, storms, floods and mudslides that from November to June it can suffer droughts and forest fires and that during any one year period beginning in June, it can be hit by volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and tidal waves.

If aging societies in the West and elsewhere (like Japan) fail to get immigration right, they will be woefully unprepared when they confront the real tidal wave the retirement of baby boomers in the coming two decades. The gaps in these countries labor markets from software specialists to physicians to home health aides will be immense.

Who knows what the consequences would have been? Many feared mass unemployment, a tidal wave of bankruptcies, millions of families evicted from their homes, the social safety net strained to the breaking point, and perhaps even riots and a resurgence of the political extremism that brought Hitler to power in Germany during the depression of the 1930 s.

The southern part of Manhattan was without power for almost a full workweek, apparently because a major substation hub in the electrical grid, located beside the East River, was knocked out in a fiery display when Hurricane Sandy and a tidal surge caused it to flood. There was no pre built workaround to deliver power by an alternate route.

It was important to strengthen the Secretariat's capacity to mobilize financial resources, which should be regarded as the Organization's top priority, to improve the implementation of South South cooperation, providing organizational and financial guarantees for the implementation of relevant plans and strategies, and to accord priority to the development of renewable energy projects, including wind energy, tidal and wave energy, biomass and micro hydroelectric power plants.

Solomon Islands will participate actively in the preparatory work and in the seventh session of the Commission on Sustainable Development and the donors conference on small island developing States. Natural disaster remains the greatest environmental threat to the peoples of many small island nations. We face such calamities as tidal waves and volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, droughts and floods and rise of the sea level from climate warming.

He was three when he became a mixed drink of one part left alone and two parts tragedy, started therapy in eighth grade, had a personality made up of tests and pills, lived like the uphills were mountains and the downhills were cliffs, four fifths suicidal, a tidal wave of antidepressants, and an adolescence being called Popper, one part because of the pills, 99 parts because of the cruelty.

It consists mainly of about 1,750 metres (m) of boreholes at sea at several sites in the area under study, using a dynamically positioned drilling vessel (MSPOV Kingfisher) equipped with a piggyback coring system and a re entrable seabed system, which can eliminate or reduce the limitation of the drilling length inherent in the length of the tidal periods of currents navigable by the drilling vessel, as was the case in previous surveys.

Perhaps people respond more generously to the victims of natural disasters than they do to those in extreme poverty because, after a natural disaster, we tend not to blame the victims. We seem to accept that to be struck by an earthquake, a tidal wave, or a hurricane is just bad luck (unless, as the American evangelist Pat Robertson suggested after the Haitian earthquake, your ancestors made a pact with the devil in order to free themselves from colonial rule).
