Advantage of Plastic: Fuel Savings
Everyone knows that plastic weighs less than metal. But what sort of impact does plastic have on the amount of fuel that the U.S. consumes? This infographic shows just how much fuel is saved by the use of plastic components in cars and how long that saved fuel could satisfy the demand of motor fuel in a given region.

Malama Pono - Take Care of Your Spirit
The Hawaiian word for health is ola. It also means life. Thus, the word health and life was one and same. They believed you could not have health without life, nor life without health. They regarded the body, mind and spirit as one --- the Trinity. This is as it is today. Each affected the condition of the other. If you abuse your body, you abuse your spirit and mind, and so on. Being healthy meant being physically, mentally and spiritually in lokahi or harmony. - Dr. George Kanahele
All work and no play are not good for our mental, physical or spiritual well-being.
We are always surprised to see how hard we work and how little time we spend on healthy, fun and leisurely activities.
Creating a balance between work and play usually involves an increase in leisure time – quality time with family, friends or just private time alone.
The Aloha Spirit is the coordination of mind and heart within each person. It brings each person to the self.
A "Akahai," meaning kindness, to be expressed with tenderness;
L "Lokahi," meaning unity, to be expressed with harmony;
O "Oluolu," meaning agreeable, to be expressed with pleasantness;
H "Haahaa," meaning humility, to be expressed with modesty;
A "Ahonui," meaning patience, to be expressed with perseverance.

Energy And Climate Change
The document discusses global energy use and carbon emissions. It notes that the current energy system is heavily reliant on fossil fuels, producing over 30 billion tonnes of CO2 emissions annually. While renewable energy is growing, it still accounts for a tiny fraction of global electricity generation compared to coal, gas and oil. The document argues that a major transition is needed to limit global warming, through improving energy efficiency, expanding renewables and nuclear power, electrifying transport, and developing carbon capture and storage. However, large-scale changes will take time due to infrastructure lifetimes and the gradual pace of technological adoption. Scenarios projecting pathways to lower emissions by 2050 involve coordinated international efforts to gradually transform energy systems over decades.

This document outlines a plan to transition buildings, cities, states, and countries to 100% clean, renewable energy for all purposes by 2050. It discusses the problems with continued fossil fuel use, including air pollution deaths and climate change costs. It then provides examples of technologies that could be used to electrify sectors like transportation, heating/cooling, and industry using wind, solar, geothermal and hydroelectric power. Case studies show grids can be stabilized with the right mix of storage technologies. Roadmaps indicate 139 countries could transition to 100% clean energy by 2050 at similar or lower costs than continuing fossil fuel use. Many cities, states and companies have already committed to 100% renewable targets.
100% Clean, Renewable Energy and Storage for Everything
A recording of this webinar is available at https://youtu.be/XmRAxB9MTyU
In this webinar, Mark Jacobson introduces his new book that lays out the science, technology, economics, policy, and social aspects of a transition to 100% clean, renewable energy in order to address climate change, air pollution, and energy insecurity. Considering the EU Green Deal, the US Green New Deal and China’s climate neutrality commitment, this book is a very timely and welcome addition to the transition movement. It is one-of-a-kind:
* It’s both a textbook for students and a briefing for a broader audience of professionals and interested lay persons active in the transition movement
* It provides a focus on a selection of clean, renewable technologies that have been proven to work and can be rapidly deployed
* It includes a concrete plan howto get to 100%, clean, renewable energy and storage for everything.
* It develops energy plans for states and countries while keeping the grid stable.
* It describes practical solutions and the policies needed for those solutions.
'Mark Jacobson’s new book, 100% Clean, Renewable Energy and Storage for Everything, provides the most authoritative look yet at the future of energy beyond fossil fuels. The text is clearly written, authoritative, and thoroughly referenced. This will make a great text book for courses on energy and climate change, but is also a must read for all of us interested in the transition to a renewable future.' - Robert W. Howarth, Cornell University, New York
A Geological Perspective On Global Warming
By Peter Rose
The relative contribution of Man's activities, as opposed to Nature's activities,,to the observed recent rises in Earth temperatures, is unresolved. In addition to the oft-noted inability of climate modeling to reproduce the documented recent past, a major shortcoming of contemporary climate studies is that they rest upon very short time spans, whereas climate change considered from a geological perspective encourages much less anxiety about the climate future of the world. If it turns out that most observed global warming is the result of natural causes, as seems increasingly likely, proposed voluntary economic initiatives by Western nations to limit CO2 emissions will constitute a serious and unnecessary economic wound, self-inflicted at the worst possible time. Sunspot cycles suggest that we are about to enter -- indeed may have already begun -- an extended period of global cooling. Recent unsavory revelations (“Climate Gate”) have cast doubt on thedependability of the science underpinning Anthropogenic Global Warming.
Peter R. Rose (BS, MA, PhD, Geology, University of Texas at Austin) is a certified petroleum geologist who was Staff Geologist with Shell Oil Company; Chief, Oil and Gas Branch of the U.S. Geological Survey; and Chief Geologist and Director of Frontier Exploration for Energy Reserves Group, Inc. (now BHP Petroleum (Americas), Inc.). In 1980, he established his own independent oil and gas consulting firm, Telegraph Exploration, Inc. His clients include most major U.S. companies and prominent independents as well as many international firms and state oil companies. Dr. Rose has explored for oil and gas in most North American geological provinces and has published and lectured widely on U.S. resource assessment, basin analysis, play development, prospect evaluation, and risk and uncertainty in exploration. He has taught extensively at the professional level and was a 1985/1986 AAPG Distinguished Lecturer.
Peak oil earth summit dialogue
Peak oil will fundamentally change the world as we know it. The era of cheap and abundant oil is coming to an end, with most estimates predicting that global oil production will peak before 2020. When oil prices spike due to supply constraints, it will have severe economic impacts and cause food shortages and civil unrest. Alternative energy sources and more efficient use of resources will be required to power economies and lifestyles as dependence on oil is phased out. Communities and businesses need to actively plan for energy descent and transition away from oil to prosper in the new energy reality. The timing and impacts of peak oil are uncertain, but transformative systemic change will be needed to develop a global operating system that does not rely on finite oil resources
distinguished_lecture_07_slides.ppt
This document summarizes key trends in global energy demand and supply through 2030. It finds that global energy demand is projected to increase by over 50% by 2030, with over 70% of increased demand coming from developing countries like China and India. Fossil fuels like oil, gas and coal will remain the dominant energy sources but their production and reserves are unevenly distributed. Environmental constraints like climate change will also impact future energy systems. Significant technological and policy changes will be needed to address challenges of growing and shifting global energy demand and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

SiS Biofuels O Connell 2007
The document discusses the prospects for biofuels in Australia. It notes that first generation biofuels are currently limited due to high costs but may provide regional opportunities. Second generation technologies using lignocellulosic feedstocks could have lower costs and broader fuel production. For biofuels to play a significant role, issues of sustainability must be addressed including impacts on land and water use, greenhouse gas emissions, and community acceptance. Third generation biorefinery approaches producing high value products along with energy show intriguing long term prospects if sustainability challenges can be met.
Rearch on solar panel
This document provides an overview of solar power technologies and issues. It discusses the current small contribution of solar power to global electricity generation but notes that solar power capacity and installations have been growing rapidly in recent years. Several types of solar technologies are described, including photovoltaics (PV), solar hot water, concentrating solar power technologies like parabolic troughs, power towers, solar dishes, and linear Fresnel systems. The document argues that while solar power may not contribute significantly to electricity generation in the near-term, it has great long-term potential due to declining costs and the vast solar resources available. Transitioning energy systems takes a long time but solar could become indispensable by 2050 to meet rising global energy demand in
Shale oil & gas : causes, risks and opportunities
The shale revolution has significantly increased US oil and gas production since 2006 and reduced the country's dependence on imports. However, shale resources face challenges including low oil prices threatening production. While the US shale boom provided economic opportunities, its long term impact on global energy markets and prices remains uncertain due to the influence of other producers like OPEC. Shale gas production could also impact European and Asian gas markets by increasing LNG exports but may be limited in scale compared to existing suppliers like Russia.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).
