This document discusses human impacts on the biosphere and policy responses to atmospheric changes. It summarizes that human activity is now affecting natural processes like gas concentrations and species populations. The 1988 IPCC was created to address climate change. The 1992 Rio Earth Summit set emission reduction targets. Proposals to achieve the targets included global carbon taxes and markets, which were incorporated into the 1997 Kyoto Protocol through the author's proposal. The Kyoto Protocol established the first international emissions trading system to reduce greenhouse gases.

This document discusses why banks need to embrace social media. It provides examples of both banks that were forced into social media due to crises (BP and HSBC) as well as willing participants (First Direct and American Express). BP initially struggled with its social media response during the Gulf oil spill but has since invested in building its presence. HSBC faced protests from students on Facebook over fee changes but ultimately reversed its decision. First Direct is seen as an innovative bank that has seamlessly integrated social media into its operations.
This document discusses Molycorp's plans to build a rare earth supply chain from mine to magnets. It highlights Molycorp's successful IPO in 2010 that raised $378.6 million. Construction has started on a new facility and mining has restarted at their Mountain Pass, California site. Their goal is to produce a range of rare earth elements, including lanthanum, cerium, neodymium, and dysprosium, which are critical components in technologies like wind turbines, electric vehicles, and water treatment. Molycorp aims to ramp production to 40,000 metric tons per year of rare earth oxides by 2012 to meet growing demand and establish a domestic rare earth supply chain.

Norway manages its fisheries and aquaculture through an extensive legislative, regulatory, research, and control framework. Key aspects include:
1) Laws passed by Parliament governing marine resources, fishery participation, and aquaculture.
2) The Ministry of Fisheries oversees policy and management with advice from research institutions and the Directorate of Fisheries.
3) The Directorate of Fisheries regulates fisheries through quotas, licenses, and controls compliance through inspections and sales organizations.
The document discusses China's seafood industry and consumption trends. It notes that China imports large quantities of whitefish like pollock and cod from exporting countries like Norway and processes it into frozen fillets. However, the processing industry earns only small profits due to increasing labor costs and dependence on imported raw fish. Rising domestic consumption, urbanization, and popularity of restaurants like KFC are increasing demand for imported high-quality seafood products in China. Only high-value added processing will remain profitable in China in the long run.

LF Energy Webinar: Carbon Data Specifications: Mechanisms to Improve Data Acc...DanBrown980551
This LF Energy webinar took place June 20, 2024. It featured:
-Alex Thornton, LF Energy
-Hallie Cramer, Google
-Daniel Roesler, UtilityAPI
-Henry Richardson, WattTime
In response to the urgency and scale required to effectively address climate change, open source solutions offer significant potential for driving innovation and progress. Currently, there is a growing demand for standardization and interoperability in energy data and modeling. Open source standards and specifications within the energy sector can also alleviate challenges associated with data fragmentation, transparency, and accessibility. At the same time, it is crucial to consider privacy and security concerns throughout the development of open source platforms.
This webinar will delve into the motivations behind establishing LF Energy’s Carbon Data Specification Consortium. It will provide an overview of the draft specifications and the ongoing progress made by the respective working groups.
Three primary specifications will be discussed:
-Discovery and client registration, emphasizing transparent processes and secure and private access
-Customer data, centering around customer tariffs, bills, energy usage, and full consumption disclosure
-Power systems data, focusing on grid data, inclusive of transmission and distribution networks, generation, intergrid power flows, and market settlement data

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.
