Foss believes that resource limits (peak oil) and the collapse of global Ponzi finance are a “perfect storm” of converging phenomena that threaten to trigger wealth destruction, social discontent, and global conflict. The consequences for unprepared individuals and families could be dire. In Foss’s presentation “A Century of Challenges”, she discusses the many converging factors that are contributing to the predicament we face today, and how individuals can build a “lifeboat” to cope with the difficult years ahead.

What to Eat – voiced by Jason Schwartzman

What to Eat – the Environmental Impacts of Our Food Visit www.platetoplanet.org for more info. What to Eat? It is the question on everyone’s minds at least three times a day. By showing how our food choices have a more serious impact on our environment than the car we drive, the light bulbs we use or the ways we recycle, the film makes the point that we can all take small steps for positive change.

STS: Energy Transfer in the Hydrosphere and Currents by MST Anna & Lorenz

Video Rating: 0 / 5

www.speakupforblue.com A new study conducted by a team of scientists and organizations including the Wildlife Conservation Society on the creation process of Marine Protected Areas. The study area was in Madagascar, a large island off the South East coast of Africa. It’s also one of the poorest nations in the world. The study looked at how the island nation prioritized designating their Marine Protected Areas in various regions. The study looked at pressures from fishing (over fishing) and climate change vulnerability (sea level rise, storm surge vulnerability, and impacts to drinking water supplies) and prioritized Marine Protected Area planning based on areas with high impacts to both factors. The result is the proposed 1 million hectares of Marine Protected Areas for Madagascar. An unbelievable achievement! This study makes me wonder why it is so difficult to establish Marine Protected Areas in general. In a Developed country like Canada or the United States there are many Ocean Users whose operations could cause major environmental problems if something goes wrong. So when it comes time to protect the environment from these activities, we tend to side with the Ocean Users; however, I feel that we should side more with the environment. I understand that Ocean Users need to make money, but at what cost, the Ocean Environment. It seems to me that we should take a more conservative approach and conserve the Ocean before allowing the Ocean Users to wreak havoc on the Ocean …

Reid Supply Offers Environmentally Friendly Industrial Products Catalog

Reid Supply Offers Environmentally Friendly Industrial Products Catalog











The New Reid Supply Company Catalog


Muskegon, MI (PRWEB) February 16, 2012

Reid Supply Company, a Michigan-based global distributor of industrial products, announces their first full-line catalog printed completely on Sustainable Forestry Initiative® (SFI®) Inc paper.

“We’ve made some very significant changes to our catalog this year, including the use of SFI® paper and environmentally friendly Enviroink™,” says Greg Palmer, Director of Marketing at Reid Supply. “These changes help us protect our water quality, biodiversity, wildlife habitats and some animal species at risk. Plus they strengthen best management practices to address Forests with Exceptional Conservation Value when working directly with family forest landowners”

The paper selection includes unique fiber sourcing requirements to promote responsible forest management on all forest lands in North America. By using SFI® paper and Enviroink™, Reid Supply leads the industrial distribution industry in sustainable catalog production.

Among other things, the new SFI 2010-2014 Standard, the result of an extensive 18-month public review, includes revisions that:


    Improve conservation of biodiversity in North America and offshore, and address emerging issues such as climate change and bioenergy.
    Strengthen unique SFI fiber sourcing requirements, which broaden the practice of sustainable forestry in North America and avoid unwanted offshore sources.
    Complement SFI activities aimed at avoiding controversial or illegal offshore fiber sources, and embrace Lacey Act amendments to prevent illegal logging.
    Expand requirements for logger training and support for trained loggers and certified logger programs. Since 1995, more than 117,000 loggers have received training through SFI-supported programs.

“The new standard was enriched by the views and expertise of many people, and offers a solid foundation as we build new partnerships and look for more ways to promote sustainable forest practices,” said Kathy Abusow, president and CEO of non-profit SFI® Inc.

The catalog is printed in full color with color-coding of the following categories:

Knobs, Handles and Hand Wheels
Clamps and Workholding
Tooling Components
Fasteners and Hardware
Leveling Devices and Vibration Control
Material Handling
Bearings and Power Transmission
Metalworking
Tools, Maintenance and Shop Supplies
Pneumatics and Hydraulics
Structural Systems
Safety

Reid Supply also offers • Apparel and Footwear and • Packaging and Shipping Supplies online at ReidSupply.com.

Other improvements made to this year’s catalog include: row shading, which makes it easier to keep your place on the page; item numbers next to the price; new photography and line drawings, to better represent the product lines; and discounts noted on applicable pages and inside the back cover.

According to Reid Supply Company’s President, John Carrier, schools and colleges might be interested in the catalog and website as educational tools.

“This new catalog and our website, ReidSupply.com, are so well organized that they can actually be used in engineering and technical education programs,” says Carrier. “Students can get a very good picture of what products are available to help them as they plan, design and build production equipment in their future workplace. And with free CAD drawings for most of the industrial products in the catalog, students can see and build with Reid products.”

Not only does Reid Supply offer industrial products, they also have free CAD drawings of over 90% of the industrial parts in the Reid Supply catalog at ReidSupply.com. They have also invested in new data management tools which have helped to refine and streamline the look and feel of the catalog. According to Palmer, there are more changes in store for the company’s website.

“We are constantly striving to give the customer exactly what they want,” says Palmer. “Our team is always checking with customers to make sure that our publications and website continues to grow with their needs. These are organic marketing tools and we make sure that they grow and adapt to our customers’ needs.”

With nearly 900 pages of industrial products for industries including: manufacturing; CAD and engineering; transportation construction; food processing; packaging; oil, gas and alternative energy; government; aerospace; medical; motorsports and many others, Reid Supply has many of the products that industrial customers need.

“Since 1948 we have committed ourselves to providing such great service that our customers will not want to go anywhere else,” says Carrier. “Reid Supply Company is real people doing really great work for our customers, order after order.”

By constantly improving our electronic and printed catalog ordering systems, Reid Supply Company intends to continually provide their customers with the best new products and the best ways to buy them.

(UN) UNCED: Earth Summit 1992 by George Hunt.

(Video is uploaded for Educational purposes Only) LINK TO – LIFTING THE VEIL – vimeo.com UNCED Conference. www.un.org United Nations Conference on Environment and – Development (UNCED), Rio de Janeiro, 3-14 June 1992. ——————————————————————————– The Earth Summit.. The Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro was unprecedented for a UN conference, in terms of both its size and the scope of its concerns. Twenty years after the first global environment conference, the UN sought to help Governments rethink economic development and find ways to halt the destruction of irreplaceable natural resources and pollution of the planet. Hundreds of thousands of people from all walks of life were drawn into the Rio process. They persuaded their leaders to go to Rio and join other nations in making the difficult decisions needed to ensure a healthy planet for generations to come. The Summit’s message — that nothing less than a transformation of our attitudes and behaviour would bring about the necessary changes — was transmitted by almost 10000 on-site journalists and heard by millions around the world. The message reflected the complexity of the problems facing us: that poverty as well as excessive consumption by affluent populations place damaging stress on the environment. Governments recognized the need to redirect international and national plans and policies to ensure that all economic decisions fully took into account any environmental …

National Geographic – Strange Days on Planet Earth – Part 3 of 4 – Predator

Around the globe, scientists are racing to solve a series of mysteries. Unsettling transformations are sweeping across the planet, and clue by clue, investigators around the world are assembling a new picture of Earth, discovering ways that seemingly disparate events are connected. Crumbling houses in New Orleans are linked to voracious creatures from southern China. Vanishing forests in Yellowstone are linked to the disappearance of wolves. An asthma epidemic in the Caribbean is linked to dust storms in Africa. Scientists suspect we have entered a time of global change swifter than any human being has ever witnessed. Where are we headed? What can we do to alter this course of events? National Geographic’s Strange Days on Planet Earth, premiering in Spring 2005 on PBS, explores these questions. Drawing upon research being generated by a new discipline, Earth System Science (ESS), the series aims to create an innovative type of environmental awareness. By revealing a cause and effect relationship between what we as humans do to the Earth and what that in turn does to our environment and ecosystems, the series creates a new sense of environmental urgency. Award-winning actor, writer and director Edward Norton (Primal Fear, American History X, Italian Job) hosts the series. A dedicated environmental activist, Norton has a special interest in providing solar energy to low income families. Each of the four one-hour episodes is constructed as a high-tech detective story, with …

10-year old Ta’Kaiya says ‘Protect our coast from oil spills’

March 24, 2011 Open Letter to Canadian politicians, My name is Ta’Kaiya Blaney. I am 10-years-old. I live in North Vancouver and am from the Sliammon Nation. My name means “special water.” I am writing to you because the Enbridge Corporation is planning to build a pipeline from the tar sands of Alberta to Kitimat, BC. I thought it would be very risky for our coast so I wrote a song, called “Shallow Waters” about an oil spill happening in the shallow waters. You will be debating Bill C-606 soon, if an election is not triggered, which would ban oil tankers from our northwest coast. I am sharing my song’s music video and a personal message to encourage you to vote in favour of the bill. Today is the anniversary of the Exxon Valdez oil spill in Alaska. Even today, 22 years later, oil still remains a few inches under the surface of the water. With this song, I hope to encourage government officials, people of British Columbia, and people across the world will realize the dangers of oil pollution, replace jobs that destroy the environment with jobs that help the environment. I ask government and corporate officials such as yourselves change your plans stop oil tanker traffic on BC’s coast and in waters around the world. Please feel free to share my letter and video with others. All my relations, Ta’Kaiya Blaney For more information, please read Stephanie Goodwin’s blog: www.greenpeace.org Shallow Waters was a semi-finalist in the 2010 David Suzuki Songwriting Contest, Playlist …

Telecom industry leaders join forces to form Global Meeting Alliance

Telecom industry leaders join forces to form Global Meeting Alliance










New York, NY (PRWEB UK) 31 January 2012

Tata Communications, together with nine global service providers, today announces the launch of the Global Meeting Alliance™, an open ecosystem of leading telecom providers that have aligned to interconnect their respective business video communities. Launch members include Sprint, Glowpoint and TELUS in North America, Safaricom in Africa, Telstra in Australia, Etisalat, Qtel and Mobily in the Middle East, and Neotel in South Africa. The launch represents the largest functioning global collaboration between service providers in business video services.

Peter Quinlan, Vice President, Integrated Business Video Services, Tata Communications, says, “Tata Communications continues to demonstrate its commitment to facilitating an open, global ecosystem that moves business video from an intracompany experience to a collaboration tool with worldwide reach. The Global Meeting Alliance is central to this strategy, and today, all alliance members are taking a major step towards making an open community for business video a reality.”

The Global Meeting Alliance network allows any service provider to connect to enterprises and institutions on all major continents, irrespective of service provider, following a similar business model to the airline alliance networks. Leveraging Tata Communications’ industry-leading number of intercarrier agreements, customers of the Global Meeting Alliance members now have access to an international Telepresence network of 3rd party video endpoints, as well as the largest global public Telepresence room network consisting of 40 public Telepresence suites in 20 countries. In addition, the community will engage in a collaborative approach to solve shared-industry challenges with the central objectives of making business video available globally, simple to connect and affordable for all.

“This is a major step forward for the video conferencing industry and its customers,” says Andrew W. Davis, Senior Partner and Co-Founder of Wainhouse Research. “By making B2B calls easier and by interconnecting different carriers, the Global Meeting Alliance will drive the usage of videoconferencing and Telepresence systems, enabling customers to see faster and higher returns on their investments. With its history of wholesale network services, intercarrier experience, and public room support, Tata Communications is in a unique position to launch this alliance.”

The Global Meeting Alliance will simplify the launch and operation of business video worldwide, making it more affordable and enabling service providers to optimise their regional networks to interconnect with a global network and conferencing infrastructure maintained by the Global Meeting Alliance operator.

Global Meeting Alliance launch member quotes:

Mike McRoberts, Director of Product Management, Sprint, says, “Sprint is excited to participate in the Global Meeting Alliance initiative. With the tremendous growth in business video, Sprint is committed to leveraging the Global Meeting Alliance and its open ecosystem foundation to deliver the benefits of a rich global collaboration experience to our customers.”

Joe Laezza, Chief Executive Officer, Glowpoint says, “Being part of the Global Meeting Alliance is an honour, and it will also provide significant value to our customers. We know customers want to extend their reach with video and collaborate with customers and key partners globally. Participating in the Global Meeting Alliance will position us to grow our OpenVideo™ community and provide business-to-business exchange services that enable businesses to build communities of interest and get more out of their investment in video.”

Tony Krueck, Vice President, Business Products & Services, TELUS, says, “Many Canadian businesses rely on International communications to maintain their competitive edge, be it with their remote offices, with suppliers and/or customers. They look to TELUS to provide the comprehensive collaboration solution that their businesses need. As a member of the Global Meeting Alliance, TELUS is able to maximise the value that we provide to our customers by greatly increasing their business-to-business collaboration options.”

Philip Jones, Executive Director, Data IP Network Application & Services, Telstra, says, “Telstra is proud to be the exclusive Australian partner in the Global Meeting Alliance. Telepresence and business video services are becoming increasingly popular with Australian organisations as they offer significant productivity and cost benefits while enabling more collaborative working practices. We expect this demand to rise substantially in 2012 and beyond. Telstra’s customers expect simple, reliable and cost effective services and our participation in the Global Meeting Alliance will assist in meeting their expectations.”

Dr. Marwan Al Al Ahmdai, CBO, Mobily, says, “Saudi Arabia is home to many global companies that need to interact with different offices, partners and customers around the globe. Mobily’s participation in the Global Meeting Alliance provides these organisations options to leverage business video to enhance this collaboration.”

Kennedy Ojunga, Manager, Virtual Collaboration Services, Safaricom, says, “By being part of the Global Meeting Alliance, our services seamlessly and conveniently allow enterprises to conduct meetings with individuals and groups in any part of the world without being physically present, helping to reduce travel costs and enhance productivity, while improving employee quality of life.”

A standard set of processes and guidelines are applicable for service delivery and operations for all Alliance members. In addition, common customer services tools will be used to schedule, conduct and provide support for video meetings. This will reduce the complexity of usage for the end user and ensure that a standardised approach and quality is adhered to by the Alliance.

To participate in global meetings the end user or their Global Meeting Alliance service provider leverages a centralised scheduling system to book business video conferences with any other certified organisation. Meetings are either initiated directly by the Global Meeting Alliance conference production team or by the end user who dials a meet-me access number and enters the PIN provided by the scheduling system. All meetings are enabled by a carrier-grade global video platform with infrastructure in four geographically diverse locations.

The Global Meeting Alliance service providers have integrated their services with the Global Meeting Alliance inter-company system which enables customers to book and launch meetings with end-users that are not directly served by the same service provider. The service supports video business sessions that can include SD, HD and Immersive devices from the Cisco, Tandberg and Polycom product lines.
