Protectionism threatens the technology industry
5 comments post a comment
As the lines between segments of the technology value chain blur, competition between what normally would be partners grows. When this occurs, companies tend to retreat from supporting solutions from other vendors, and some times, even industry standards.
We are seeing many examples of companies crossing the lines of the traditional value chain. By purchasing Sun Microsystems, Oracle is now in direct competition with the likes of HP, Dell, and IBM, which have all been valuable partners in the past.
As Microsoft enters the PC/tablet market with Surface, it will compete against the companys PC and tablet OEM partners. Google will compete against its smartphone OEM partners with the acquisition of Motorola. And, Intel has often entered markets, like the motherboard and systems, where it competes with its own customers.
But as the industry and business models change, this value chain boundary hoping is not limited to just hardware and software vendors. In the retail, Walmart and Target have abandoned selling the Amazon Kindle tablets due to competition between the retailers and e-tailers, and Apple competes against its retail and wireless carrier partners by selling directly to consumers.
The result of these boundary crossing threats results in many companies considering doing the same. With the release of the iPhone 5 and iOS 6, Apple has attempted to replace key Google applications, and in smartphones and tablets, many content providers, retailers, and carriers are considering offering their own branded devices, applications, and content services.
These cross-value chain threats indicate more change in the industry. During this period, the availability of desired solutions may be limited, but ultimately, businesses and consumers will benefit from increased availability and lower pricing of more robust solutions that combine hardware, software, content, and services. So, protectionism within the industry is not necessarily bad. But, what happens when social and political factors play a role?
Suppose China, the fastest growing market for the technology industry, suddenly became closed off to foreign technology providers? Not only would growth suffer, but the impact on the current sales could be devastating. Its easy to argue that this would not happen because we are now in a global economy that has many inter-dependencies. But, the truth is that it could happen as China and other developing countries become more technologically advanced.

HHS-Funded Study: Obamacare Will Suffer 'Death Spiral' If Subsidies Fail
The Obama administration has funded a new study by top consulting firm RAND Health that startlingly finds that if taxpayer subsidies are eliminated, Obamacare exchanges will fall into a "death spiral." The study comes in the wake of a number of lawsuits which are challenging the Obama administration's implementation of Obamacare subsidies. Three lawsuits have made it to U.S. Circuit Courts, just one step from the Supreme Court, arguing that the text of the Affordable Care Act allows premium subsidies for state-run exchanges only.

Excel basketball coach Jon-Michael Nickerson said it's the history the facility shares with his players that prompted the school to host the first round of the state playoffs there.
"I have several players who are 18 years old and they spent 13 years playing basketball in that facility," he said. "That's why I look at it as our home court, too."
Excel will play Holy Innocents on Saturday. Game time is 6 p.m.
The game will bring together two top-flight teams who played very good basketball this season.
The Golden Bears, coached by Terry Kelly, have a 13-5 overall record and a 6-2 record in Region 5-A. The Golden Bears have been scoring an average of 59 points a game while allowing 51.
Excel is 25-2 overall with a 12-0 record in Region 6A-A. The Eagles have been scoring an average of 62 points per outing while allowing 51 points.
The two teams have two common opponents, St. Francis and Mount Paran Christian.
Holy Innocents defeated St. Francis 67-54 on Nov. 16 and lost 73-64 to Mount Paran Christian on Dec. 4. Excel lost to St. Francis 59-45 on Feb. 15 and to Mount Paran Christian 53-47 on Dec. 15, its only regular season loss.
Nickerson said coaches have received written reports on their opponent and have "videos on the way."
"I've also seen two or three of their players at some of the showcases I've attended," he added.
The coach said he's even received word-of-mouth reports for a long time.
"I've heard good things about them all year," he said. "I expect it to be nothing short of a great game and a great first-round matchup for us. Whichever team comes the sharpest is going to win."
The coach hopes playing at the Aubrey Street facility will help make his youngsters sharp at game time.
"I have players more comfortable at Aubrey than at Excel," he said. "They grew up in that gym."
He said another compelling feature of the gym is that it can be "loud."
Nickerson said his players should be OK with playing in that facility, which can seat "about 800 to 1,000."
While the gym has a lot of history associated with it, Excel is looking to make its own history.
The school is playing for its second time in the state playoffs, having won a game in 2008.
But Nickerson doesn't have his young charges locked in on what's happened in the past.
"We want to follow in our own footsteps," he said. "The way I like to talk about history is to let the players know what they're doing is important, but I try to stay away from comparing what we do with what others have done. I want us to be our own team and concentrate on our own accomplishments rather than something another team did."
Nickerson also hopes it's not just fans from Excel and Holy Innocents that attend Saturday's game.
"We'd like as many people as possible to come out. If we had the support of the entire Cartersville community, it'd be a huge advantage if they'd come out and scream their lungs out for us."

A New Day for Learning
"A New Day for Learning," a report released today by the Time, Learning, and Afterschool Task Force (TLA), calls for immediate action to design a comprehensive learning system throughout the day, early to late, and year round. The TLA Task Force was chaired by NAESP's executive director, Vincent L. Ferrandino, who says that, "All stakeholders involved with the development of children—whether it is educational, emotional, physical, or creative—need to tear down the barriers we've imposed on ourselves and partner more effectively to create a new learning day for children."
Principals Speak Out on No Child Left Behind
With the reauthorization looming, we asked some principals how NCLB has impacted their schools. Principal Dean M. Warrenfeltz commented that he was present in Washington, D.C. for the ceremonial signing of the NCLB legislation and very excited to see the bi-partisanship backing of the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act and the promised support for public schools. "However, the punitive nature of NCLB implementation and the lack of funding have not lived up to the promise," said Warrenfeltz. "The current legislation's tone does not promote teaching as a profession or recognize the efforts put forth by educators. (You can read the rest of Warrenfeltz's comment under the excerpt "All Eyes on Congress for NCLB reauth.") When Principal Jan Borelli took the helm of her elementary school three years ago, the school had been on the state's low performing list for five continuous years and was in danger of being reorganized or closed. "The pressure was unrelenting," said Borelli. "After my first year there, we came off the low performing list by the hair of our chin. This year we performed very respectably in the top 10% of the 68 elementary schools in our district in over half of the tested grades. NCLB has really brought accountability (or at least a 'feel' of it) to our school since we had not provided evidence of progress until the last couple of years. It's very demoralizing to work under such pressure and negativity; however, we decided to focus on the positive aspects (i.e., using data to tell us what we need to teach). It required (and enabled) us to professionalize our practice so that we no longer taught to the middle (couldn't afford to) but actually began differentiating our curriculum so all children would make progress. By using best practices and research-driven practices, we began to find the way to teach so that our 99% free/reduced lunch and 68% ELL population could learn to read and develop language competencies more quickly. I have not liked being under the gun, but I have loved the constant data that flows my way and the ability to evaluate our practice as we go along instead of a stamp of 'good' or 'bad' at the end of the year."
Join us tomorrow for more reflections on the impact of NCLB. We hope that you will also take the time to share your thoughts on the Principals' Office about how NCLB has impacted your school.
All Eyes on Congress for NCLB reauth
While President Bush met with congressional leaders this week about the upcoming reauthorization, there was some rumbling in education circles about an article written by Michael Petrilli, a former U.S. Department of Education official who helped promote NCLB. Petrilli wrote "I've gradually and reluctantly come to the conclusion that NCLB as enacted is fundamentally flawed and probably beyond repair. The positive part about NCLB, he explained, is that it has changed the conversation in education. "But let's face it: It doesn't help the dedicated principal who is pulling her hair out because of the law's nonsensical provisions," he says. Read the rest of Petrilli's article at http://www.edexcellence.net/FOUNDATION/gadfly/index.cfm#3177.
The suspense to the reauthorization of No Child Left Behind (NCLB) has been building for several months and many eyes are on the new Congress to see what action they will take. But what's this in Monday's Christian Science Monitor in which reporter Amanda Paulson writes, "While the conversation is heated, the likelihood that NLCB will be reauthorized this year may be small." Paulson cites an informal poll of Washington insiders that was conducted by the Fordham Foundation. In the poll, the majority of respondents believe the reauthorization will be delayed until after the 2008 presidential election.
Warm Weather Delays the Inevitable—the Flu Shot
This past Saturday was a beautiful spring day in many northeastern cities. In fact the 71 degrees in Albany, NY, 69 degrees in Boston, and a record breaking 72 degrees in New York City felt more like April than January temperatures. It's safe to say that the northeast is having an unusually warm winter. One of the effects of this warm weather trend is a delay in the way that we winterize our bodies. For example, peak flu season is usually December thru March—but the warm weather in many regions of the country has delayed the "get flu shot" alarm in many households. Health officials are concerned that the mild winter will pacify people and they will in turn be caught off-guard when flu season hits, as it inevitably will.
In other regions of the country, influenza has already struck. The Centers for Disease Control Prevention (CDC) reports that regional or widespread flu activity has already affected Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina and South Carolina in the southeast region. The good news is that the flu season doesn't peak until February and the CDC says it's not too late to get a flu shot. The CDC includes up-to-date resources for schools at http://www.cdc.gov/flu/school/qa.htm.
Heroic Stories to Kick-off the New Year
New Yorkers—and the rest of the nation—are celebrating the heroics of subway Samaritan Wesley Autrey. If you haven't heard of Autrey, he's the man who saved the life of a teenager who suffered a seizure and fell off a New York subway platform this past Tuesday. Autrey bravely jumped onto the tracks and shielded the student as the subway car rolled over both of them. A true act of courage. The Principals' Office is also celebrating the heroism of Maryland vice principal Sue DelaCruz who recently helped save a woman and her child from their SUV, which had run off the road into a lake. The SUV was almost completed submerged in the water when DelaCruz, waded into the lake, which is nearly seven feet deep, to save them.
We love to read stories like these, especially since they don't include the names "Hilton," "Lohan" or "Brangelina" for a change. Have a terrific weekend!
Tune into the Principals' Office next week for some thoughts on No Child Left Behind.
Happy Holidays!
The Principals' Office will be taking a temporary hiatus next week. We wish everyone a joyful holiday season and a Happy New Year. We would also like to take a moment to thank our nation's principals for the awesome job that they do and for their continued commitment to their students and teachers. See you in January!
What's Your New Year's Resolution?
Someone once said that "A New Year's resolution is something that goes in one year and out the other." But the Principals' Office prefers the more optimistic tone of Oprah Winfrey, who said "Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right." Some principals have made New Year's resolutions for their schools. For example, Oklahoma Principal Jan Borelli says this year her school started a walking program and her New Year's resolution is to follow through with the program. "Some of us (most un-notably ME) have spent the time watching rather than participating," says Borelli. "My faculty and I are committed to fully participating when we get back in January."
For Missouri Principal Teresa Tulipana, the thought of adding something to the work that her school already does seems daunting. "We are nearing capacity and one more initiative or one more committee may be all it takes to push us past capacity," says Tulipani. "So in 2007, I resolve to help my school focus on what is, in the words of Stephen Covey, 'wildly important.' By narrowing our focus to two or three wildly important areas or initiatives, I believe we can make a significant impact for students. This narrowed focus will allow us to work smarter, to pool our energies, and to maximize our potential as a school team."
What's your New Year's resolution for 2007? Share your resolution with the Principals' Office.
Tough Choices or Tough Times
Last week's release of the report Tough Choices or Tough Times has the education world buzzing with conversation. The report by the New Commission on the Skills of the American Workforce, a bi-partisan group of education and business leaders, calls for an overhaul of the Pre-K-12 educational system in the U.S. The report's recommendations include: universal preschool, higher teacher salaries, and schools run by independent contractors. The authors point out that "our education and training systems were built for another era… and that "the problem is not with our educators. It is within the system in which they work." The executive summary of the report can be downloaded at http://skillscommission.org/pdf/exec_sum/ToughChoices_EXECSUM.pdf.

Coping with the Stress of the Holiday Season
Stress comes in all forms during the holiday season—overcrowded malls, last minute gifts to buy, skyrocketing plane ticket prices. We asked some principals if they experience an increase in stress at their schools during this time and here's what they had to say.
Missouri Principal Teresa Tulipana writes: Stress is a reality of the holiday season. For some students, there is the uncertainty of what the holidays will bring and the prospect of being home for an extended period of time. Whether students will admit it or not, the structure of the school day gives them great comfort. Holidays are also stressful for parents because financial concerns and added responsibilities can create a great burden. Couple this with staff members who are experiencing similar stressors and a full calendar, and stress will definitely impact a school. I personally combat it by increasing my level of organization and focus on what's really important—the people in the school and in my life. To help my staff combat the stress, I regularly talk about the stresses they may encounter, model a calm demeanor, and help them celebrate the joys of the season. I also give my staff "The Gift of Time." This gift, in the form of a poem and candy cane, announces that all faculty meetings in December have been cancelled. Based on the reactions of the staff, you would have thought I bought them each a brand new car! Small gestures of understanding can make a huge difference when a school experiences a stressful time.
Oklahoma Principal Jan Borelli writes: I am principal at an urban school (99 percent of the children receive free- and reduced-lunch) with the highest incidence of child abuse for our county in our attendance area. Some children "act out" the problems they experience in the home while others withdraw and are sad. My faculty and I actively work to bring happiness and joy to the children; and the students at a local private high school adopt our children and come to the school to provide a Christmas (most of our children won't have one) and individual attention for the morning. Instead of focusing on our own stress, my faculty and I make a concerted effort to our children. Of course, the five pounds we gain from eating all the food during this time may be from stress!
Montana Principal Pat Hould writes: I have never felt that the stress level for my school as a whole increase during this time of year. I do believe that stress levels increase for some individual students. Students who have had significant loss in their lives, or who have had trauma that has been detrimental to their immediate families, seem to struggle during the holiday season. While most of my students think of the Christmas and Thanksgiving holidays as a time for friends and families to gather, and as a time to exchange gifts, those students whose families have financial challenges struggle. I must say however, that the mere anticipation of the Christmas break does bring a certain "circus energy" to the last few school days in December!
Second Graders Convince Leno to Eat His Veggies
Let's hear it for students from St. Ignatius School in Portland, Oregon for promoting healthy eating habits. The school's second graders were being taught about the Food Pyramid when they heard that comedian and talk show host Jay Leno hadn't eaten a vegetable since 1969. The students wrote letters to Mr. Leno imploring him to take a renewed look at the Food Pyramid and give veggies another try. Their persuasive writing paid off: Mr. Leno ate a veggie for the first time in 30 years on an episode of "The Tonight Show" this week. If you want to see a clip of the show, visit the school's Web site at http://www.stignatiusschool.org/today.htm. Principal John Matcovich says the entire letter writing project has been "a memorable example to our students of how powerful their writing can be."

I have own a hudson Bay bag for my years like 25=30 years and i have used it for camping, hunting, and using it as my shopping bag at stores, some stores will not kit me take in but i flatten it at the bottom of my shopping cart so they will know I have nothing there. It was a original HBC bag as I bought it at the Northern stores. Someone stole it though, when i used it as a shipping pack when i moved. I need another one or 2. great bag to have handy.

- Great pack to have for longer trips.
- Rating
I own three Duluth Packs, this is the second one I purchased. I can use this pack for everything I need when I'm on a trip by myself. It's great for longer trips when you need to take plenty of food, too. It's heavy duty and packs well. I like the box style packs very much. It feels more balanced when your shoving in everything for your trip. They sit great in the canoe as well.

- Great, BIG, pack
- Rating
This is the best "big pack" I've ever used.
When I bought it, I wanted a pack that would sustain me in the field for a week or more and this more than fits the bill. I've used it on canoe trips and week long camping trips.
The pack is huge and tough as nails. You do have to be careful with this -- as with all frameless packs -- to pack something soft against your back. It's also easy to overload yourself with this pack due to its capacity. It's not a daypack or weekender pack, but great for car/canoe camping or if you're going to be out for a long period of time and just need to bring lots of stuff.
I'm glad they brought this pack back, it's fabulous for those long trips.

RARE VINYL SERIES: ORIGAMI VINYL, DTLANeil Schield : The Jacks, Vacant World
About five years back I was trolling the internet for Japanese Rock and stumbled upon some outdated website documenting the lost sounds of Japanese Garage Rock from the 60's. Many of the bands were influenced by the sounds of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and The Beach Boys. The Jacks were Japan's most interesting and creative answer to that sound. Their album "Vacant World" displayed the most awesome heavy fuzz sound that spun my head around. I've been rocking this album ever since. Sadly the thing is so rare, I haven't been able to get my hands on a copy. You can get a fix of The Jacks here, and read more about their releases on Garage Hangover.
We're featuring rare vinyl profiles by some of our favorite record labels and shops around the world. Keep an eye out for more.

The new year ushered in a new administration of Clare Co. affairs.and no great stir was occasioned when the change took place. The official roster is much the same as heretofore, the only change of importance being in the office of Sheriff, Thomas If. Lavery of Harrison, (find by the way all the incumbents but one are residents of the county seat) is the lucky man who heads the lift., being the successor, to Geo. W. Graham to the Shrievalty. Mr. Lavevy owes his election to tlie mistake the fusioniste made in failing to renominate Sheriff Graham. The campaign had not progressed far when the knowing ones admitted the error, but instead of giving up they devoted themselves all the more energetically to the election of their candidate, Arthur E. Doty of Greenwood. Mr. Doty'■•.«. political career had been a checkered one, be having been a democrat, republican ami greenbacker in turn within a very few years. Two year."- ago he was a prominent delegate to the re ship where his party had a majority of 138, Mr. Burritt was snowed under by 79 majority. Ho accepts the situation and doesn't indulge in any great amount of crowing over his great democratic victory. As a public prosecutor Mr. Burritt has beetl earnest, careful and firm, and in tha prosecution of the scoundrel Carr he never wavered. For these reason^ he was successful. With the coming of the new year these gentlemen assume relations tothe public that are either new ot freshly renewed. The Press hopes that upon Jan. 1, 1SSJ), only a good report can be made of each and all of them, and wishes them in all things a happy new year. «., « MORE LOCAL.

USDA says no doubt climate change hurting ag
The National Climate Assessment report announced on May 6 claims climate change is affecting every region of the U.S. and critical sectors of the economy like agriculture. The weather change is being blamed on many risk factors for farmers and ranchers as well as rural communities.
By mid-century and beyond, weather impacts will be increasingly negative on most crops and livestock, according to this third climate assessment report. USDA's Director of the Climate Change Program Office commented on the report. Click here to read the news release from the program office.
In a follow-up to the announcement, Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack's office released an evaluation of the situation and listed what the Obama administration and USDA have been doing to lessen the impact and prepare for the future.
"Across the country, farmers, ranchers and forest landowners are seeing an increase in risks to their operations due to fires, increases in invasive pests, droughts and floods. In the Midwest, growing seasons have lengthened, the western fire season is now longer and forests will become increasingly threatened by insect outbreaks, fire drought and storms over the next 50 years. These events threaten America's food supply and are costly for producers and rural economies. Drought alone was estimated to cost the U.S. $50 billion from 2011 to 2013. Such risks have implications not only for agricultural producers, but for all Americans," the Vilsack USDA news release explained.
Vilsack said, "The Obama administration continues to take steps to responsibly cut carbon pollution, slow the effects of climate change and support an expanded domestic energy economy. At USDA, we're working closely with our nation's farmers, ranchers and forest landowners to help them manage the negative impacts of climate change, reduce their energy costs and grow the bioeconomy to create jobs in rural America.
The Vilsack news release provided outlines of 10 programs or steps the administration is spending money on to address the impacts of climate change. The full news release with the programs outlined can be read by clicking here.

The USDA is just another example of the corruption within our government as well as the world's governments catering to the Agenda 21 scam. Certain multi national companies and corrupt politicians (The Clintons are among them) greedily seek to control world wide markets and market share by introducing climate change standards only they can afford. They will eventually have a monopolistic control once the have squeezed out the competition of smaller companies. They will also impose world wide taxes to line their elitist pockets. Don't trust any politician or entity who touts the ramifications of climate change. Hundreds of credible scientist agree climate change is a political farce.
Since the average temperature has remained constant over the last 15 years, and the Arctic ice pack is 50% larger than a year ago, and since the Earth temperature normally fluctuates, there is no reason to bankrupt the US taxpayer by this con game. One study came to the conclusion that we could spend $1,000,000,000,000 dollars (one trillion) and lower the average temperature 0.07 degrees F. What a waste. Could it be that someone in Washington just wants more power and control over us?
There IS absolutely NO doubt that USDA is hurting ag………..tremendously.
Still more lipstick on the Al Gore possum. A random search of; 'global warming fraud' will reveal much. That is if you can stand anymore. Oh! The morning goes on. I gotta go and get with it.
They are dying to implement another TAX on the people, but it probably won't go to anything to do with climate change. This is the biggest scam I have ever seen.
When farmers here the saying from USDA we are from the government and we are here to help we all need to cringe and walk away or run,. They pretend there has never before been floods, drought , excess rain, snow, cold, and yes heat ever before in history! These events have been happening since the beginning of time and God is the only one who controls them. Farmers have adjusted to whatever weather events have happened and we will continue to adjust without the governments interference or so called help.
We are taxed for everything else. Why not droughts and floods?
So the misinformation campaign of the Obama administration continues! Ask any plant physiologist and they will tell you that plants have the ability to adapt to their environment over time. I see nothing but higher yields for agriculture with any increase in global temperatures going forward. Ken is right, global temperature has remained constant over the past 17 years.
If they were interested in increasing crop production they would be for increasing carbon dioxide emissions as higher levels of CO2 help plants grow faster and bigger with less nutrients. Actually it also does not increase temperature as the concept violates the 2nd law of thermodynamics. Heat come is from the sun and radiates outwards only. From the atmosphere to radiate to the earth is an impossibility. cloud cover just slows down the radiation outwards like a blanket. Oh, black body theory falls apart with gases. Gases including water vapor have a decreasing rate of radiation with temperature and density not an exponential increase as in classic blackbody theories.
Still waiting for the report detailing what the dinosaurs did during their time on earth which turned the planet into a jungle.
Purdue University did a great study on what effect the warming of the atmosphere and increase in CO2 would do to agriculture. What a true scientific study showed was that yields would increase under these conditions, thus decreasing world hunger and slowing the deforestation of the landscape. Please notice I said SCIENTIFIC study...no use to the USDA or any other branch of the government.
So it's all a conspiracy, then. What a sad commentary on many subscribers' perceptions of Climate Change. Where is the real science here? Is it a Clinton/Obama/UN political cabal that is determining public policy by using climate change as a foil? Really...? Your grand and great-grandchildren will surely thank you for your inability to see what most of the rest of the world holds clear. Such a shame....
Thank you. I can't believe the amount of people that like to put their heads in the dirt at the farm. This is not conspiracy, climate change in the last 70 years has been from our use of fossil fuels and the increase in co2. Why are you believing 3% of the scientists that disagree? Is it fear? Have you looked at the facts or is it from Fox news. 11 out of the 12 comments really give farmers a bad name.
global warming scientists said new York and California would be under water by the yr 2000 back in 1970 based on their studies and wanted Nixon to start taxing then it is a scam
Its perfectly clear to me that coal, oil and gas burn cold.
Then why doesn't our govt. stop the GEOENGINEERING??? Look up...the chemtrails are almost constant and I think that's one reason we are in a horrible drought in Texas
Yep ---the U.S. Air Force is spraying us. We are getting over exposed to toxins. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHm0XhtDyZA look up and see the chemtrails.....and watch your grass die from drought It also accumulates in the soil & water. She urges you to get a rain sample in a glass jar & she can tell you where to send the samples --- and it costs about 50.00. If you want to see what your levels are you can send her an email firstname.lastname@example.com She found out it wasn't a conspiracy theory.
Agreed. To discount this report, and the evidence on the ground for that matter, just because the topic of climate change has become a hot button issue is simply foolish. Keep in mind that the greatest naysayers of climate change are people and corporations who are heavily invested in doing nothing, absolutely nothing, to address the issue (or even acknowledge it), specifically the fossil fuel sectors of our national and world economies. What does rural America have to lose by at least investigating this issue?
The suspicion I see in many of these comments appears to be the direct result of the disinformation campaign put forth on Fox News and right wing radio. This issue is way too serious to trust to those narrow and heavily biased (due to fossil fuel influence) "news" sources. It's truly amazing how effective Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh and similar commentators have been at discrediting the proven links between fossil fuel emissions and climate change.
Liam what is the biggest factor in climate change?
Whether human-induced climate change is reality or not doesn't matter really. The believed cause of global warming (i.e., anthropogenic CO2 emissions) will continue. Go to EIA to get the facts. The fact is that in the next 30 years OECD nations (comprising 18% of the global population) will contribute little to projected increases in CO2 emissions. Relative to non-OECD nations, OECD emission increases will be essentially flat due to increased use of natural gas and the development of alternative energy. That does not mean these countries will discontinue their reliance on fossil fuels. To the contrary. There will always be reliance on cheap and abundant energy. In contrast, the non-OECD countries (mainly China and India) will be the big emitters as their economies convert to middle class. They want increased per capita quality of life. These countries will essentially double global CO2 emissions over what they are now. Much of that is due to coal usage. There is no stopping this trend as long as fossil fuels remain cheap and abundant compared to other sources. Energy, fresh water, food, and environment. It's hard to solve environmental problems when people are poor, thirsty, and hungry. OECD = Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development OECD Countries (18 percent of the 2013 world population) OECD Americas (United States, Canada, and Mexico/Chile) OECD Europe OECD Asia (Japan, South Korea, and Australia/New Zealand) Non-OECD Countries (82 percent of the 2013 world population) non-OECD Europe and Eurasia (includes Russia) non-OECD Asia (includes China and India) Middle East Africa Central and South America (includes Brazil)
The 3% (whereever that number came form) That I listen to dont have their hands out for goverment funding, are highly ethical, are quilified in the field, and are not Political Scientists.
It's not as if 'climate' hasn't changed before, is it? How on earth did humans survive it all??? The era when earth was all 'rain forest' with exotic animals we now find only as fossils, and the compressed 'compost' from some ancient era which we now burn as fuels intrigues me! Isn't it a bit arrogant of the 'climate change cult' to believe mere humans can change the climate more than the volcanoes, earthquakes, or tsunami's can? YES! we do need to clean up our environmen....for aesthetic reasons!... and we in the USA have already done a tremendous job of that. Given that our President has been on a spending orgy, we simply cannot afford to give other nations the money to do things better. We CAN share information with them, since it was mostly lack of such information which led us to foul the land and air in the first place. We do need to continue our clean-up, and do it wisely and honestly without hampering good businesses into oblivion.
