Nt1310 Unit 1 Activity 7.2

#1-I will like to successfully complete this goal by October 20th, my goal is to improve my telephone skills. I will do this by being aware of my comfortability and speed while talking to guests over the phone. Additionally, I will ask questions as well as observe my co-workers to see how they professionally communicate with the quest over the phone. Furthermore, to evaluate my success I will request feedback from my co-workers and supervisors. I will also be self-aware with my comfortability and speed when doing this task.

If more companies built solar panels then the price of solar panels would go down making them more affordable. Once that happens, more houses would have solar power which would greatly cut down on the production of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere. Another way to be more Earth friendly is to use cars that are battery powered and not gas powered. This would again cut down on the gas being released into the air thus creating a cleaner environment. In every way possible, the idea of change and reformation will always affect our lives in positive or negative ways but it is inevitable and will catch up to us

According to research by J. Timmons Roberts, Peter Grimes, and Jodie L. Manale a “global restructuring of capitalism since the 1970’s has seen a capital flight from the core to the semi-periphery and periphery, creating ‘New International Division of Labor’ with increasingly complex production taking place in poorer, lower wage nations” (284). With this global restructuring we have seen the outsourcing of pollution intensive-industries to nations (mostly East Asia and Latin America) that do not possess the infrastructure or expensive pollution control devices to create an efficient use of fossil fuels (Grimes, Manale, and Grimes 264,265). The lack of carbon efficiency in their infrastructure, increases the carbon emissions associated in the

It is the goal of the United Nations to ensure that the world’s population has access to energy that is reliable, sustainable, affordable and modern by 2030. Will we know the goal has been accomplished? There are five targets set that need to be reached to consider the goal accomplished. The third deals with something concrete: doubling the world’s energy efficiency. The other four are more abstract.

Event 1. At point A corner of 74th St and Madison Avenue a LTB Mechanical Inc. employee parks his Van and seems very happy ( my personal comments S.H.) after find parking because of busy traffic in city. The driver goes to the nearby muni meter and inserts his credit card and he presses couple of buttons but was unable to buy the time card. He goes to the opposite corner and disappears.

The Enhanced Energy Efficiency case with an added requirement that all coal-fired facilities capture and sequester 50% of their CO2 by 2025; and • Strong Federal Carbon Policy. The Enhanced Energy Efficiency Case, but with (a) a rule that all coal-fired plants sequester 90% of their CO2 by 2025; (b) higher natural gas prices due to increased gas demand to replace coal units that cannot cost-effectively sequester 90%; and (c) lower renewable energy costs from more rapid deployment. Table I-1 summarizes the differences of these four scenarios. Table I-1

There is a quote by President Barack Obama saying, “To truly transform our economy, protect our security, and save our planet from the ravages of climate change, we need to ultimately make clean, renewable energy the profitable kind of energy,” (“151 Inspiring Environmental Quotes”). He believes as many due that nonrenewable resources are harmful to all aspects of life. The energy we use now is harmful to our planet, to humans, and to animals. Scientists are taking steps to making the world a better place. They found sources that replenished naturally in a short amount of time and are less destructive in all aspects.

Target 7.a could also be observed from the financial side of the energy market, by examining the percentage of energy investments used in the renewable energy centre with respect to the entire energy market. Part 2 Despite the possibilities available as described above, only parts of each of the targets are currently measured, due to the prioritization of the progress of certain targets currently held by the world over other targets. The developing world aspect of Target 7.1 and the effectiveness of Target 7.b - excluding the sustainability aspect - are in part measured by the International Energy Agency (IEA).

If the trend of power consumption keeps going up, by 2020, it would use as much power as the entire world uses right now! This could cause power bills to go up, and create much more pollution. PROVING OPPOSITE ARGUMENTS

Introduction In today’s world, most developing countries are in a race to build up the necessary infrastructure to scale up there operations and become the next global superpower. In this process, a lot of energy is consumed – be it for transportation, manufacturing or construction. This rapid growth of energy use seen over the past two decades have raised concerns for governments and energy-related organizations alike. Questions with regard to the supply, sustainability and exhaustion of energy sources abound, and while most developed countries have taken active steps to reduce consumption of scarce resources, the position of developing countries in this regard is still lacking.

The 0% change showed that they did not complete the sub goals while the -67% changed explained that they were able to reduce hunger of 67% of the population. Another goal was achieving universal primary education which has just universal primary schooling as it sub goal, it had just a 4% change between

The American economy has been pushing China to have to work harder to become the best economy. Despite China being the biggest polluter, China has caused the growth of many industries with their solar and wind farms. They are also a major exporter of renewable energy (Pahm and Rivers). China’s main renewable source is solar panels.

This is based on the analysis done by Climate Action Tracker which compares energy use, savings that are

An interesting analogy presented by author, Les Leopold implies a similar notion, “And under trade policies, we will import the next wave of high- efficiency light bulb to save energy while wasting some of the gain on the carbon used to transport them here around the globe” (Leopold). Furthermore, we must acknowledge that this burst of economic prosperity demands an abundance of resources in order to be sustained. . The abundant burning of coal and the use of chemicals to fuel the transportation of exports has not only had a preponderant influence on China’s environmental status, but the entire world.

On the contrary, idealistic green goals have shown to been pragmatic by benefitting the planet, society and the economy, and this quash initial fears about their
