The document discusses the need for a "Green New Deal" on the island of Ireland to transition away from an unsustainable, fossil fuel-dependent economy to a low-carbon economy. It outlines several reports calling for such a transition due to economic challenges, energy insecurity, and climate change. Cross-sector partnerships in Northern Ireland have had some success in promoting renewable energy and energy efficiency. However, a large-scale "Green New Deal" has yet to be adopted as government strategy on the island, which would require innovative financing mechanisms and managing the impacts on different economic sectors and social groups during the transition.

Green new deal: an initiative to redirect the USA towards a sustainable future
Green new deal: an initiative to redirect the USA towards a sustainable futureSustainability Knowledge Group
The Green New Deal is designed to convert the grey economy into an “environmentally sound, economically viable and socially responsible” sustainable economy. Yet, the Green New Deal has not been so welcomed due to its “unrealistic” socio-economic program and it is left to be seen whether its realization will be achieved. Global Green New Deal Policy Brief
This document discusses a proposal for a "Global Green New Deal" (GGND) in response to the current economic crisis and long-term sustainability challenges. The GGND would invest 1% of global GDP over 2 years to stimulate the economy and transition to a greener future. It proposes targeting fiscal stimulus at green infrastructure, reforming policies to reduce subsidies and incentivize sustainability, and coordinating internationally on trade, technology and carbon markets. The objectives are reviving economies, creating jobs, promoting sustainable growth, and reducing carbon dependency and environmental degradation.
Summary Report: B4E COP17 Dialogue 2011, Durban
The panel of South African CEOs agreed that their country has established an environment conducive for businesses to grow sustainably. De Beers is minimizing its environmental impact through reducing energy and water usage in mining processes. It also researches climate change effects. Solar Capital has developed many solar farms in South Africa's optimal locations, and aims to expand supply to the national grid. They view South Africa's supportive policies like attractive tariffs and selection of projects with social goals as effective drivers of green development and social progress.

Sn Climate Equity Sa Media Aug 09
Climate change poses urgent challenges that require global cooperation and drastic action. The impacts of climate change like extreme weather events are already being felt around the world. However, countries have made little progress in reducing greenhouse gas emissions despite decades of climate negotiations. Developed nations need to make deeper cuts in emissions while providing funding and technologies to help developing countries transition to low-carbon economies. Equity is needed to share the remaining carbon budget fairly and ensure the poor can still develop. Major changes are required across energy, transport, land use and forestry to reinvent economic growth sustainably.

Unions, climate change and the great inaction - Sean Sweeney
This document discusses Trade Unions for Energy Democracy (TUED) and outlines the need for unions to play a role in addressing the climate crisis. It notes that business as usual would lead to a 4-6 degree Celsius rise in global temperatures. While renewable energy development has increased, fossil fuels still dominate energy production globally. TUED aims to advance democratic control of energy and challenge the capitalist economic system. The document argues that unions need a climate program to build power, address the climate emergency, assert social ownership over key sectors, and resist extreme energy expansion.
Institutions and green economy
This document summarizes a seminar presentation on the green economy. It defines the green economy as increasing development without harming natural resources through cleaner industries and more efficient resource use. It discusses green economy indicators, initiatives in countries like China and India, and challenges to achieving a greener economy, including financial barriers and lack of environmental awareness. While a green economy may create jobs and markets for green technologies, critics argue it could increase costs for developing countries. The presentation concludes that green investments and policies are crucial for long-term environmental and economic sustainability.
The Green New Deal
The Green New Deal is a plan to combat climate change by transitioning the United States to 100% clean and renewable energy, creating jobs in the process. It aims to cut greenhouse gas emissions in half by 2030 to limit global warming while also guaranteeing jobs, healthcare, and income assistance for Americans. First introduced by activists and later endorsed in Congress, the Green New Deal seeks to mobilize the economy to address climate change on the scale of the original New Deal programs in the 1930s to combat the Great Depression.

Revolution j barry
This document discusses different types of revolution including political, cultural, economic, and technological revolutions. It examines some common causes of political revolution such as injustice, repression, inequality, and unfulfilled expectations. While revolution can be progressive, bringing reform, it also carries the threat of violence. The document explores sources of potential new revolts, such as opposition to austerity policies, climate change, and energy insecurity. It concludes that revolution may be necessary for social and political progress, but should aim to be non-violent whenever possible.

Peak oil, climate change and energy security john barry
The document discusses several issues facing Europe related to energy, climate change, and the economy:
1) Peak oil, climate change, and concerns over energy security have made energy policy a high priority for the EU. The EU has sought to promote energy market liberalization and regulate emissions.
2) However, the EU Emissions Trading System has struggled with low carbon prices that are insufficient to drive green investment. Additionally, austerity measures threaten progress on green growth initiatives.
3) A "Green New Deal" approach is proposed, using counter-cyclical public investment and green finance tools to create jobs in low-carbon infrastructure development during economic difficulties.
Climate change
This document discusses climate change and discusses several key points:
- Climate change refers to a change in weather patterns over an extended period of time, including changes in average conditions or temperature variations.
- There are debates around whether climate change is caused by human activity or natural occurrences. Some experts believe the current warming is caused by human factors like greenhouse gas emissions while others believe the Earth undergoes natural warming and cooling cycles.
- The impacts of climate change can include rising sea levels, more severe weather events, and effects on plants and animals like species extinction. Climate change threatens environments and communities worldwide.
Economics as myth__economics_as_power
This document critiques modern neoclassical economics and argues for reforming the field. It asserts that economists are asked for commentary in media not because their views are true, but because they are seen as experts. It also notes the anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall and triumph of capitalism. The document discusses how neoclassical economics acts as a dominant narrative and "regime of truth" that uses "veto economics" to reject new ideas. It argues the field produces "technically competent barbarians" and relies on public silence and compliance. It critiques the myths and ideologies perpetuated by modern economics, such as scarcity and growth, and calls for rethinking economics and imagining alternatives beyond orthodox growth models
What is statistics
This document discusses statistics and their uses in various fields such as business, health, learning, research, social sciences, and natural resources. It provides examples of how statistics are used in starting businesses, manufacturing, marketing, and engineering. Statistics help decision-makers reduce ambiguity and assess risks. They are used to interpret data and make informed decisions. However, statistics also have limitations as they only show averages and may not apply to individuals.
Measures of central tendency
This document discusses measures of central tendency, specifically the arithmetic mean. It provides formulas and examples for calculating the arithmetic mean using direct, short-cut, and step-deviation methods for both ungrouped and grouped data. It also discusses calculating the weighted mean and combined mean of two or more related groups. Key characteristics of the arithmetic mean are that the sum of deviations from the mean is zero and the sum of squared deviations is minimum.

Skewness
This document discusses measures of skewness and kurtosis in statistics. It defines skewness as asymmetry in a distribution where the mean and median are not equal. Positively skewed distributions have a mean greater than the median, while negatively skewed have a mean less than the median. Kurtosis refers to the peakedness of a distribution, with leptokurtic distributions being more peaked than normal and platykurtic being less peaked. The document outlines formulas for calculating coefficients of skewness using the mean, median, quartiles and percentiles to quantify the degree of skewness. It also defines beta values that can be used to measure kurtosis in a distribution.
050 sampling theory
The document discusses different types of sampling techniques used in research. It explains that sampling involves selecting a subset of a larger population to make estimates about the population's characteristics. There are two main types of sampling: probability sampling, which uses random selection, and non-probability sampling, which does not. Some examples of probability and non-probability sampling techniques are provided.
Measures of dispersion or variation
This document discusses various measures of dispersion used to describe how varied or spread out a set of data values are from the average. It describes range, interquartile range, mean deviation, standard deviation, and the Lorenz curve. Standard deviation is highlighted as the most important measure, being easy to calculate, taking all data points into account equally, and indicating how far values typically are from the average in a normal distribution. The document provides formulas and explains properties and limitations of each measure.

The Just Transition
The document discusses the concept of a "Just Transition" to a low-carbon economy. It emerged in the 1970s from environmental, indigenous, and labor activists who saw the need for support strategies for workers who could lose their jobs due to environmental policies. A Just Transition aims to decarbonize the economy without costing workers jobs or harming their livelihoods. It requires a Green New Deal to create millions of green jobs, sectoral transition plans, job training and unions to bargain for workers' rights. Financing comes from a national investment bank and transition funds while nationalizing energy ensures affordable, renewable power for all.
EY - Let's Talk Sustainability Issue 4
For the global sustainability community,
the most effective catalyst of change
has long been seen as the informed
self-interest of the mainstream financial
community: if banks and investors
could be convinced of the proximity of
environmental risk or societal impacts,
then it has been assumed that capital
diverted from ‘unsustainable’ practices
would render all other interventions
unnecessary. In practice though, the
sustainability community has found
the financial sector a hard nut to crack.
Although recent years have seen a
substantial increase in the integration of
environmental, social and governance
(ESG) data forming part of investment
analysis, the continued emphasis on shortterm
results and incentives has pushed
longer-term environmental risks, such as
climate change, outside of the boundary
of risks contemplated by mainstream
analysts. That is, until recently.

UTSpeaks: Progress or procrastination? (Part 2 - James Goodman)
Can Australia lead the way with an effective climate action program?
Why is local and global action on climate change taking so long? Why are politicians, the media, scientists and industry chasing each other’s tails on the urgent issue of reducing carbon dioxide pollution? Almost two years on from the anticlimactic Copenhagen climate change summit, CO2 emissions are still rising. Why aren’t Australians willing to invest in protecting the future survival of their descendents?
This interactive forum takes stock of the current CO2 emissions and carbon tax debate and considers how a positive climate action program could work with the big polluters as well as foster community groups and households to be powerful change agents.

Green Energy
This document discusses green energy and decoupling economic growth from energy consumption and carbon emissions. It finds that historically economic growth has correlated with increased energy use. Decoupling aims to continue economic development without a corresponding rise in environmental impact. The limits and challenges of decarbonization include the high costs of technologies like carbon capture and storage, nuclear power, and ensuring a just transition that does not negatively impact industries and workers. Overall decoupling economic growth from energy use and decarbonizing will be difficult but necessary for environmental sustainability.
RES DK 6.11.2015
The document discusses reasons to support renewable energy development globally. It notes trends in global population, economic growth, and energy consumption pointing to increasing demand. Charts show the majority of current energy comes from fossil fuels but renewable sources are growing. Successful examples of countries like Iceland and Denmark meeting most energy needs from renewables are mentioned. Major organizations are now supporting strong climate agreements and transitioning away from fossil fuels due to economic and security risks of climate change. The goal of powering the world completely with wind, water, and solar is evaluated as technologically and economically feasible if key social and political barriers can be overcome.
The Future Of Renewable Energy And RE Policy Mechanisms
The document discusses renewable energy policy mechanisms and the future of renewable energy. It notes that renewable energies can compete with fossil fuels if subsidies are leveled between the industries. Currently, fossil fuels receive over 85% of energy subsidies in the US. Investments in wind energy, stimulated by the production tax credit, have significantly lowered costs and increased domestic manufacturing jobs. For renewable energies to effectively replace fossil fuels, policies need to incentivize their growth and competitiveness.
Energy Efficiency
This document discusses energy efficiency policies and sustainable energy. It notes that many countries are implementing energy efficiency policies to address issues like global warming and dependence on fossil fuels. Energy efficiency and renewable energy are seen as key to sustainable energy policy. The document then discusses several countries' and regions' policies around energy efficiency, greenhouse gas emissions reductions, and renewable energy development, including the European Union, China, and the United States. It also discusses the Kyoto Protocol and concepts like the environmental Kuznets curve and carbon capture and storage.

Completing the picture_ How the circular economy tackles climate change.pdf
This document is a republication of a 2019 paper that argues the circular economy is crucial for addressing climate change. It summarizes the original paper's key points:
1) Adopting circular economy principles like eliminating waste, circulating materials and products, and regenerating nature could significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. For example, eliminating food waste alone could reduce annual emissions by 1.4 billion tons by 2050.
2) Business leaders and policymakers need to integrate efforts to transition to a circular economy with responses to climate change. The circular economy offers opportunities to decarbonize industry and food systems while increasing economic resilience.
3) Multiple organizations and political figures express support for the paper and its argument that the

Summary Report: B4E Global Summit 2008, Singapore
BUSINESS AND MARKETS IN A CLIMATE OF CHANGE
B4E 2008 highlighted the most urgent environmental challenges facing the world today and discussed business-driven solutions for mitigating and adapting to climate change. Important topics addressed included resource efficiencies, renewable energies, new business models and climate strategies. Delegates learned best practices for identifying and managing the risks posed by climate change to uncover opportunities for developing competitive advantages. CEOs and senior executives from leading global companies joined leaders from government, international agencies, NGOs, and other organizations to discuss the issues, forge partnerships and explore solutions for a greener future.
Module 10 - Section 1 Introduction: adaptation, mitigation & energy & climate...
An overview of the predicted change in energy demand over time, given the projection that economic growth in the emerging and developing countries is not only overtaking growth in the industrialized countries, but that growth rates are poised to continue increasing and will make unsustainable demands on conventional energy resources, and especially fossil fuels unless drastic action, climate action in fact, is taken to address this concern.
Slide presentations developed to demonstrate how Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) be used to address climate change, and why ICTs are a crucial part of the solution – i.e. in promoting efficiency, Green Growth & sustainable development, in dealing with climate change and for climate and environmental action. These slide presentations were delivered in February 2011 in Seongnam, near Seoul in Korea.
These presentations were developed and delivered over 2.5 days on the occasion of a Regional Training of Trainers Workshop for upcoming Academy modules on ICT for Disaster Risk Management and Climate Change Abatement. These modules were developed as part of the Academy of ICT Essentials for Government leaders developed by the United Nations (UN) Asia Pacific Centre for ICT Training (APCICT), based in Songdo City, in the Republic of South Korea.
These presentations were developed in 2011, and are somewhat out of date, but most of the principles still apply. Module 10, which has been published, does not include much of the information outlined in these presentations, which are fairly technical. They were developed to address a significant gap in understanding of the technical basis of using ICTs for climate action and because there is a clear bias in development circles against the importance of dealing with climate change mitigation in developing countries. These presentations are an attempt to redress this lack and are published here with this purpose in mind.
The author, Richard Labelle, is presently working on updating these presentations to further highlight the importance of addressing climate change and the important role that technology including ICTs, play in this effort.

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Editor's Notes
- The inevitable transition to a renewable/low carbon energy economy
- Across the island, the environmental costs of 20th century economic growth are all too obvious, from the excessive use of nitrogen and other fertilisers of industrialised forms of agriculture; the pollution of inland waterways from agricultural, industrial and domestic sources; the loss of biodiversity and habitats; unsustainable increases in carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels; patterns of land use and urban and suburban development which each year decrease green spaces; to the congestion and pollution associated with an explosion of privatised car transport onto a road and transport infrastructure than cannot sustain it and making, for example, Northern Ireland one of the most car-dependent parts of Europe.
- Eamon Ryan (March 12 th 2008 in the Dail) “As our all-Ireland grid study, to which I referred earlier, shows there is a significant requirement for us to urgently build a series of grid connections — we would have to do this in any event to upgrade our grid, even if we were not changing our energy policy direction — it is right for us to treat this on a national basis rather than on a project-specific basis because the lessons we learn in one area will obviously apply elsewhere.”
