- GM reported adjusted net income of $529 million for Q3 2006, an improvement of $1.643 billion from Q3 2005. This was driven by strong performance in GMNA and improvements in GME and GMLAAM.
- In North America, cost reductions led to an adjusted net income improvement of over $1.3 billion versus Q3 2005. Launch vehicles delivered favorable contribution margins despite rising material costs.

1) An economist discusses environmental economics and how it relates to climate change. The causes of environmental problems are economic due to unintended pollution from production, and environmental problems have economic consequences.
2) The basic science of climate change is outlined, noting the risks of temperature increases over 2°C. From a science to economics perspective, reducing emissions to avoid the worst impacts will be difficult but not impossible, though the costs are often underestimated.
3) Moving from economics to politics, climate change is a global issue but costs and benefits are not equally distributed, creating a free rider problem requiring international cooperation. Carbon pricing is the most effective but politically challenging approach.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.
