62. CBI Employment Trends Survey 2006 The CBI Employment Trends Survey 2006 found that the majority of employers feel that school leavers lack skills vital for employment: 65% feel they lack self-management ability, 70% were dissatisfied with business awareness, and 47% believed they had a poor attitude to work. Just over half (52%) of employers were dissatisfied with school leavers key employability skills such as communicating, team working and problem solving.

82. … .is vital if we are to prepare for the INEVITABLE changes that will occur if we are to develop…. a SUSTAINABLE ENERGY future. An understanding of Maths With Rob Farr: The Energy MC 2
83. “Every twenty four hours, we burn 85 million barrels of crude- -using it not simply to heat, feed, move or defend ourselves, but to educate, entertain, construct our world then fill it with stuff. Everything we buy, from a McDonalds' hamburger to garden furniture to cancer drugs, represents a measure of energy produced and consumed…” THE END OF OIL
92. Dr. Albert A. Bartlett's presentation on "Arithmetic, Population, and Energy.“ “… The best kept scientific secret of the century…” Exponential increase £100 £102 £104.04 £106.12
94. Exponential increase T2 = 70 % growth rate It is a mathematical function – for calculating the steady growth of anything!
95. A human life of 70 years 2% growth per year = factor of 4 3% growth per year – a factor of 8 4% growth per year – a factor of 16 At 4% the baby’s £100 will be worth 100 x 16 = £1600
96. Current World is 1.19% (58 years to double from 7 billion to 14billion) EU growth rate is 0.11% USA is 0.88% China is 0.63% India 1.58% POPULATION GROWTH Lets pretend that if this modest increase of 1.3% continued each years the population of the human race would reach a density of 1 for every square metre in only …………………… World population in 1986 was 5 billion (growing at 1.7%) d-time 41 years 1999 was 6 billion (growing at 1.3%) d-time 53 years 80 million new people each year….. WOW 2012 will reach 7 billion…… 780 years..!
97. Zero population growth will have to happen at some point. Which and when do we choose… increase or decrease? 0%
98. Increase population Procreation Large families Immigration Medicine Public Health Sanitation Peace Law and Order Scientific Agriculture Accident prevention Clean air Ignore the problem Decrease population Abstention Contraception Small families Stopping immigration Disease War Murder / Violence Famine Accidents Pollution Smoking EDUCATION?
99. Now let us examine the characteristics of steady growth in a finite environment. … a bottle of bacteria.
100. 1 Bacteria at 11 o’clock by 12 o’clock the bottle is FULL
101. EXAMPLE: “…. 500 years of coal in the USA…” Average U.S. coal consumption growth for 1971 to 1991 was 2.86% 500 years of US coal will only last 500 years if the US has 0% growth If the growth rate is 1% it will be 174 years If the growth is 2% it will be 117 years 3% = 91 years 4% = 75 years……
102. The statement…. We have used more oil since 1985 than up to 1985 … is not so surprising!
103. We take 4 barrels of oil out of the ground for every 1 found Proven oil reserves = 1.2 trillion barrels (BP stats) At CURRENT consumption rate = 40 years
104. Some oil stats……. USA and Gulf of Mexico 2010 - The Gulf of Mexico produces 2.2 million barrels per day..! USA consumes 20 million barrels per day..! Shell discovered a new oil field in the Gulf of Mexico in 1993 Estimated 700 million barrels of oil US consumption rate at that time = 16.6 million barrels per day 700 / 16.6 = 42 days Gulf of Mexico – 2009 BP found perhaps 3 billion barrels of oil ( 1 billion of which might be recoverable) Thunderhorse field Very big – produces 300,000 barrels per day But took 10 years to get going..! North Sea MAX 6 million barrels / day
105. Hubbert’s Peak His estimated figures were a little short…! 2010 – approx 30 billion barrels per year
108. Question: How much energy does everyone in the world consume in a whole year…? 424, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000 Joules A clue…. There are 6.8 billion people in the world!! 452, 471, 500,
109.
110. The population of the planet consumes Energy at the equivalent rate of about 1 and 2/3 of a tonne of oil ……… per person ……… per year. or about 5 litres of oil (LOE) per person per day Unit of energy used is LOE - litre of oil equivalent
111. Why do we consume so much energy? Population is currently over 6.8 billion people By 2050 world population will be over 9 billion.
112.
113. How much energy does each country consume? (Total was 424 EJ) India = 21 EJ UK = 9.7 EJ Denmark = 0.84 EJ USA = 100 EJ Germany = 13 EJ
114. If everyone used the same amount of energy as those in the rich developed world, global energy consumption would increase eightfold by 2050 Oil price 2008 $130 / barrel Basic Economic Rule: Supply and Demand What will happen if we can not meet the demand For Energy? $143 $77 today….. Oil price 1998 $17 / barrel
115. of the world’s population currently consumes FACT That means the average daily energy used by an individual living in the world’s 24 wealthiest countries is SIX TIMES that of people living in the rest of the world. If everyone used the same amount of energy as those in the rich developed world, global energy consumption would increase eightfold by 2050 — 1 7 — 1 2 of the world’s energy!

118. Who has the oil reserves: - Middle East have the most oil
119. If we continue to consume it as we do now, how long will oil last? 40 years FACT: We have consumed more oil since 1985 than up to 1985
120.
121. “ Clean” Natural Gas is over 90% Methane Used for electricity generation and heating homes and factories
122. Who has the Gas reserves? – Middle East & Russia
123. If we continue to consume it as we do now, how long will Gas last? 60 years FACT : UK is currently changing from self sufficient to NET Importer
124.
125. Can be 400 million years to 100 million years old Made from layers of plant material Some coal can contain 3 x the amount of energy compared to other types UK had only 12 mines left open by 2004 China : coal supplies ⅔ of the Primary Energy A tonne of coal contains 746kg of carbon: burning it produces 2.7 tonnes of carbon dioxide. UK had only 7 mines left open by 2006
126. Who has the coal?:- More evenly spread throughout the world
127. If we continue to consume it as we do now, how long will coal last? 200 years FACT : Consumption of coal had doubled in the last 50 years
3M serves customers through six market-focused businesses. All six produce innovative products, hold leading market positions and generate solid returns on investment.
Quote from William McKnight, a past president of 3M. McKnight was far-sighted enough to realise the very real risk of losing the spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship as 3M grew. This quote was included in a letter McKnight sent to his staff in 1941. The McKnight Principles are still quoted in 3M, and are important because it is people who are creative and innovative...... people who make things happen.
Good morning etc …. Will talk about the 3M approach to innovation What are the requirements for successful innovation What are the enablers that create a culture of innovation And I’ll talk about a few new products within the health care arena to illustrate our approach
Objectives Students should learn: Where their current task fits within the whole ‘problem solving approach’ To review their prior work. Points to note: This is the final screen, from a series of similar screens, which maps our ‘current location’ in the whole ‘problem solving approach.’ Having discussed our findings we could now start the whole cycle again.
Firstly is the CensusAtSchool Project which was originally a one off project linked to the Adult population census of 2001. Since then it has mushroomed and grown into a very large and successful project across the UK. I’m sure there are several schools in the audience that have had experience of it. I will be using a lot of the data from the project later on to illustrate how to use data to enrich the curriculum.
We also have an International Random Data Selector section where you can download random samples of respones from 9 databases from these countries. South Africa did CensusAtSchool in all of its schools in 2001 and have a database of over 5 million records. We tend to just use the 20% sample of 700,000! They expanded our technology question to begin with “Do you have running water in your home and worked up to the Internet. Their website is not operational at the moment but the link goes to some holding pages which contain a lot of the SA files. South African questionnaires has been translated into all 11 of the official South African Languages. The questions were based on the UK version, but some reflected South African tradition and lifestyle, for example they couldn’t use the pets question because it would discriminate on racial grounds – if you have a dog you are white, chickens black etc.
By 2003 this was 451, up to 471 Exajoules today
65.3 % in the middle East
Associated and Non Associated Gas Used to make old Town Gas but now have “clean Natural Gas Dutch first found it 1959 and 1967 – 77 it became 35 – 40 % of the UK primary Energy resource.it underwent a 10 x increase! 2000 saw UK gas consumption reach 90 million tonnes (of oil equivalent) per year. Matching Oil!!
