Our nation is experiencing an energy renaissance with increased oil and natural gas production, but our infrastructure struggles to transport these resources to market. We need infrastructure policies that support maintaining and upgrading our outdated systems, and building new pipelines, to prevent job losses and energy disruptions. Investing in infrastructure could generate $1.14 trillion in investments from 2014 to 2025, creating jobs and energy savings. Updating infrastructure by 2025 could support over 1 million jobs, contribute $120 billion to GDP, and increase government revenue by $27 billion.

We are living in an ageing world; people are living longer. We are living on an ageing planet; in a climate emergency. So how does the topic of longevity fit into the climate change agenda? What is the coherent policy response to the interface between climate change and an ageing society?
ILC-UK, in collaboration with the ILC Global Alliance and AAG are building a ‘Climate change in an ageing world’ initiative to be launched alongside the COP26 (November 2021).
This webinar provided an opportunity to feed into the scoping and planning of our initiative.
Let’s invest in jobs with-long term payoff. Until we get a vaccine, there will be continuing unemployment in the jobs where people are close together: restaurants, theaters, sporting events, airplanes, and cruises. Grants for more energy efficient homes and industrial buildings would make jobs for local contractors. The resulting lower energy costs with lower carbon dioxide emissions would repay the cost several times over. This comes when science tells us there is no time for delay on dealing with climate change.
Joe Biden’s “build back better” will immediately invest in sustainable job creation, new industries, and re-invigorated regional economies.
To outcompete China, Americans could invent, commercialize and manufacture the new battery technology needed to store solar and wind energy and for electric vehicles. Businesses and job creators all across our country would supply the materials and parts.
Millions of construction workers are needed to build affordable housing and to rebuild our crumbling infrastructure, including aging nuclear reactors. These generate 20% of our electricity with no carbon dioxide emissions. Americans are developing advanced reactors that are smaller, safer, and more efficient at half today’s construction costs.

Three seismic shifts that are shaking up the world of energy Bloomberg LP
BP Plc released its yearly Statistical Review of World Energy on Wednesday. Used for decades as an industry benchmark, this year's edition laid bare the seismic shifts taking place in global energy markets.
IRON AND STEEL is a very important industry in the modern economy. Steel is used in the manufacturing of many products needed for a modern standard of living, for the construction os ships, and bridges and skyscrapers. The processes involved in the production of iron and steel are very capital and energy intensive. Responsible operations in the iron and steel industry are critical for both society and the environment.
IEA's view on the developments and trends in the world energy system, up and to 2040.
Without too many words- EFOW view is that we need to urgently reform our present policy approach on Energy, but start to organize Energy Architecture & UN SDGs development/ transition programs to scale.

An annual report issued by ExxonMobil predicting the energy scene from now until 2040. In this edition Exxon says fossil energy--oil, natural gas and coal--will continue to produce 80% of the world's energy through 2040.
Este artículo considera algunos de los desafíos que enfrentan los ingenieros y la industria de la tubería como lo experimentamos negocio y el cambio social, y esperamos que cambiar algunas de nuestras prácticas de ingeniería de la tubería.
Estos desafíos van desde el mantenimiento de nuestros estándares de seguridad a las tecnologías que fomentaban para permitir la reducción de costes. Sin embargo, como una industria fracasaremos todos nuestros desafíos técnicos si no mantenemos nuestra mejor personal, y administrar de manera efectiva.
Por lo tanto, este artículo considera algunos de los cambios necesarios en el pueblo y parte de gestión de nuestra industria, antes de desafiar las prácticas actuales de construcción de tuberías básicas.
Making Indian Engineering World class - Theme talk on Engineer's day 2014Prof. Mohandas K P
This is the ppt on a talk given on the theme " Making Indian Engineering World class" on Engineer's day for Institution of Engineers Kozhikode Local centre on 22nd Sept . Presents points from the theme circulated and my ideas views on how Indian engineers who are inferior to none in the world can do well in our own country.
In this keynote speech to the Global Green Leaders Summit I explore the need for a robust conversation on how the growing global population and the rise of the middle class in developing countries will have a huge impact on climate change. It is little discussed in terms of what is happening on the ground from an increase in consumer demand, the connection with energy and, dare i say it, food supply. In the speech i call for a more innovative approach to supporting business and industry to innovate, invest, invent and create

1. INFRASTRUCTURE
OVERVIEW
Our nation is in the middle of an energy renaissance. Workers like you have helped make America the number one natural gas producer in the world. Oil production is at its highest level in decades. In fact, we are on a path to potentially make the US the number one producer of crude oil as well.
Now we face a struggle to get this oil and natural gas to market. Our energy infrastructure struggles to meet the new demands we’re putting on it. From pipelines to trains to trucks to ships, we need to ensure that our nation's infrastructure system can move the increased US oil and natural gas that we are producing. We need an infrastructure policy that reflects today’s energy production. If we don’t invest to maintain current infrastructure, upgrade our outdated infrastructure, and, in some cases such as pipelines, build new infrastructure, it will cost us jobs, leave us vulnerable to supply disruptions, and weaken our energy security.
2. INFRASTRUCTURE
WHY IT’S IMPORTANT
Getting oil and natural gas out of the ground is only part of the way the energy industry powers America. Our energy infrastructure is how we get these resources to market.
We are using cutting edge, 21st century, technology to create a surge in oil and gas production. We also need to have a 21st century infrastructure system to ensure we have the fastest, safest, and most efficient network to move our oil and gas resources. This is a vital part of making sure our energy renaissance continues.

MORE INVESTMENT IN U.S. INFRASTRUCTURE
Updating U.S. infrastructure could generate an estimated $1.14 trillion in capital investments, creating both jobs and energy savings from 2014 to 2025.
Capital spending in the infrastructure that moves and transforms oil and gas into everyday products, including gasoline and home heating oil, has increased by 60 percent between 2010 and 2013.
4. INFRASTRUCTURE
ECONOMIC BENEFITS
When we invest in our energy infrastructure, we invest in energy jobs and economic growth.
•By 2025, investments in our energy infrastructure could:
•Support 1,147,000 jobs;
•Contribute $120 billion to U.S. GDP;
•Produce $75 billion in labor income;
•Increase government revenue by over $27 billion
American energy workers need these jobs and this labor income. It’s time to upgrade our energy infrastructure and put America to work.
