This document summarizes a presentation on how research can best inform the transition to a green economy. It discusses key concepts like the green economy, sustainable development, and decoupling economic growth from environmental impacts. It also summarizes several EU research projects that provide evidence on issues like climate change impacts on water resources, the effects of carbon taxes, and indicators for assessing progress on sustainability. The presentation argues for continued investment in research to build the evidence base for green economy policies and active science-policy cooperation to support the transition.
Sony created an interactive walkman display to compete in the MP3 market and showcase their superior sound quality. The display allowed users to listen to products, obtain information about them, and compare items. It also provided Sony real-time usage data to help shape sales strategies. The software could be remotely updated and stores had control over pricing and promotions through a retailer section. The displays were customized per store and designed to fit existing fixtures with minimal disruption.

This document summarizes a presentation about the final report from The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity (TEEB) project on water and wetlands. The presentation covers: an overview of TEEB and the TEEB water and wetlands project; the benefits humans derive from water and wetlands and what we risk losing; measuring ecosystem services to improve management; integrating the values of water and wetlands into decision making; and recommendations to transform our approach. Wetlands provide important ecosystem services supporting water security and other benefits, yet have been degraded, resulting in losses to biodiversity, human well-being and economies. The TEEB report provides evidence on the high economic values of wetland ecosystem services compared to other
The document discusses the TEEB (The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity) initiative and its work on biodiversity and climate change. TEEB aims to make decision-makers aware of the economic benefits of biodiversity and ecosystem services. It has produced reports for different audiences on topics like biodiversity loss, valuing natural capital, and policy solutions like payments for ecosystem services. Maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services provides ongoing flows of benefits to human societies in areas like provisioning, regulating, cultural and supporting services.
Tablet shipments have grown rapidly but ownership remains concentrated among high-income households in a few markets, particularly the US. Within the US, tablet ownership skews toward older age groups between 30-64 rather than younger adults. The document forecasts that tablet shipments will reach 122 million in 2012 and 442 million by 2016, with growth coming from emerging markets, lower-cost mini tablets, and falling prices over time. Currently, tablet ownership is heavily concentrated in developed regions like the US and Europe, but this is likely to change as prices drop and tablets proliferate in developing areas like China.
This document outlines key marketing metrics for a company including budgets, leads generated, costs, and returns. The total marketing expense was $25,000 with $5,000 in credits, for a net cost of $20,000. They generated 5,000 leads at a cost of $40 per lead, for a total investment of $220,000. The marketing generated 5,000 incremental leads, 750 incremental sales of $1,000 each, for $750,000 in incremental revenue and $337,500 in incremental gross margin. The total return was $117,500 and the ROI was 53%.
The document discusses India's rapid economic growth over the past few decades, with GDP growth rates second only to China. It notes the growth of India's large middle class and increased domestic consumption. The document also references Moneycontrol's large online readership in India and increasing internet and mobile phone penetration, presenting opportunities for digital media companies.

2. Δραστηριότητα ομάδας Α΄
Να μελετήσετε το παρακάτω διαλογικό μέρος του κειμένου.
— Ποτέ δε σ’ έχω δει με καπέλο, του είπε η Ανθούλα και του
χαμογέλασε.
O Πέτρος κοκκίνισε. Ντρεπόταν. Όχι την Ανθούλα, μα τη μάνα της.
— Oύτε και με παπούτσια, ξανάπε η Ανθούλα.
— Τα κεράσια είναι σαν αληθινά, της είπε αυτός με χαμηλωμένα τα
μάτια.
— Ποια κεράσια;, απόρησε εκείνη και γύρισε το κεφάλι της όξω, κατά
τους μπαξέδες, να δει.
— Της καπελίνας σου!
Η Ανθούλα γέλασε, έβγαλε το καπέλο της και τα κοίταξε σαν να τα
’βλεπε για πρώτη φορά.
— Ψεύτικα είναι, είπε.
3. Στη συνέχεια με τη βοήθεια του προγράμματος δημιουργίας κόμικ toondoo να

Η α΄ομάδα καταγράφει τις σκέψεις τις γύρω από
την αξιοποίηση του λογισμικού κόμικ και τις τυχόν
δυσκολίες που προέκυψαν από τη μεταγραφή του
διαλογικού κειμένου σε κόμικ και διερευνά το γιατί.
Η β΄ομάδα αναφέρεται στην αντίστροφη διαδικασία

να μεταγράψει σε διαλογικό κείμενο και αναζητεί
τους λόγους .
Ποια από τις δύο περιπτώσεις θεωρείτε ότι
πετυχαίνει καλύτερα τον επικοινωνιακό του στόχο;
