24、turtles were either raised from the eggs of their dead mothers or were themselves rescued from roads, storm drains or other dangerous places over the years.“Its a great community connection J said Lisa Ferguson, director of research and conservation at the Wetlands Institute, which runs the program
25、along with Stockton University and Stone Harbor schools. It shows how conservation works, and that everyone has a part to play, from adults down to kindergarten students.”The turtle release took place during egg-laying season, when turtles come up out of the wetlands onto dry land to lay eggs, thus
26、exposing themselves not only to natural predators, but also to the far more deadly threat of motor vehicles.Aside from caring for injured live turtles, the Wetlands Institute harvests eggs from females killed on the road and incubates （孵化）them at 30 degrees Celsius （86 degrees Fahrenheit）, a tempera

33、es and fingertips with a marker. How did they do? Not that well.People think their hand is wider than it actually is,“ said Longo.

43、eines water is cold enough, a machine captures it and uses it to cool the systems water. The heat created as a byproduct is sent back into the Seine where it is absorbed. The chilled water is then pumped through the systems pipes to its 730 Parisian clients.Paris cooling sites all use renewable ener
44、gy sources such as wind turbines and solar panels. French officials see this energy independence as particularly important given the threat of Russia cutting off energy supplies to Europe.The merits of using a cooling system which uses renewable energy to operate are already being felt by sites that
45、 use them. The worlds most visited museum, the Louvre, has benefited from the network since the 1990s.“It allows us to benefit from energy with a lower carbon footprint available all year round/9 said Laurent Le Guedart, the Louvres Heritage Director. The particularity of the Louvre Museum is that i
46、t needs to use iced-cold water to correctly conserve the artwork and to control the humidity.”Le Guedart said that the system is a money-saver given the rising cost of energy linked to the Ukraine conflict. It operates notably in the State Room of the Pavilion Denon where the “Mona Lisa“ lives. Perh
