Illinois Green Challenges And Opportunities
This document discusses green jobs in Illinois, including:
- Green jobs aim to address climate change and economic recession by supporting jobs in renewable energy, energy efficiency, and related fields.
- Illinois has seen growth in green job training programs at community colleges and initiatives by the city of Chicago and state to promote sustainability.
- However, fully developing green jobs faces barriers like lack of business involvement, slow technological innovation, insufficient incentives, and need for a more systematic approach to greening the entire economy.
Report, Ca Green Opportunities And Challenges
California has a long history of leadership in green policies and initiatives dating back to 1978. It currently leads the nation in clean energy businesses, jobs, and investment. The state's green economy focuses on clean energy, energy efficiency, environmentally friendly production, conservation, and supporting jobs and services. Challenges include providing seed funding and financing assistance, implementing ambitious policies around land use and emissions reductions, ensuring access to information, and building public trust. While green activities can create jobs, this should not be the primary focus as replacing existing jobs and employing currently unemployed workers will be prioritized in the near term.
Review Of Green Job Estimations For Co (2)
This document summarizes two reports on green jobs in Colorado from 2007. One report estimated around 17,000 green jobs, while the other estimated around 91,000 jobs, with the difference largely due to differing definitions of green jobs. The report with the higher estimate used a broader, occupational approach, while the lower estimate used a narrower industry approach. The report also breaks down the top renewable energy and energy efficiency jobs in Colorado, finding energy efficiency employed far more workers than renewable energy. The top renewable energy employer was the federal government, while the leading energy efficiency industry was recycling and waste management.
Report, Review Of Green Job Estimations For Co
This document summarizes and analyzes two reports on green jobs in Colorado from 2007. It finds that the reports estimated vastly different numbers of green jobs - 17,000 versus 91,000 - due to using different definitions and methodologies. The document also examines the top renewable energy and energy efficiency job categories in Colorado in 2007 and projections for 2030. Barriers and opportunities to green job growth in Colorado are discussed.
2010 HACR Report
The document summarizes the 2010 Corporate Inclusion Index published by the Hispanic Association on Corporate Responsibility (HACR). HACR aims to advance Hispanic inclusion in Corporate America through various initiatives, including agreements with companies, an annual survey (the Corporate Inclusion Index), research and advocacy, and a stock purchase fund. The 2010 Index found that while Hispanic representation in employment has improved, they remain underrepresented in leadership. Hispanic-owned businesses also continue to be underutilized as suppliers. HACR will continue working with companies to foster greater Hispanic inclusion.

Lake Research Presentation on Corporate Taxes- Netroots Nation
- Voters support closing corporate tax loopholes and ensuring large corporations pay their fair share of taxes. They believe some profitable corporations pay no taxes at all or move profits overseas to avoid paying taxes.
- Connecting corporate tax breaks to companies that ship jobs overseas resonates strongly with voters. Ensuring American companies pay similar taxes on overseas profits as domestic profits also has support.
- Revenue from limiting corporate tax deductions and loopholes should go towards reducing budget deficits and funding priorities like education, not reducing corporate tax rates further. Progressive arguments on corporate taxes beat arguments for lower rates by a wide margin.
- Ending tax breaks for corporations that move jobs overseas is a convincing patriotic message for voters. In focus groups,

Managing the Ethical Implications
of the Big Box
The Walmart Effect
Edward C. Brewer
This case examines criticisms of Walmart that its economic impact “limits the
ability of local businesses to survive.” The case study also examines how the
company has responded to charges that it negatively affects local businesses. It
raises questions regarding the effect of large businesses on other stakeholders,
including whether company goals are aligned with community goals and whether
the company communicates responsibly with its publics. It also addresses the
utility, or consequences, of economic development and its impact on relationships
with others, among other ethical perspectives.
Walmart has had a tremendous impact upon our society. Its pervasive presence has
affected communities all over the United States. The first Walmart store opened in 1962
in Rogers, Arkansas. By 1970, there were 38 stores with 1,500 “associates” (employees)
and sales of $44.2 million. In 1990, Walmart became the nation’s number one retailer. In
2002, Walmart had the biggest single-day sales in history: $1.43 billion on the day after
Thanksgiving. Today, Walmart is the world’s largest retailer with 2.1 million “associates”
in more than 8,800 store and club locations in 15 countries and sales of $405 billion in the
fiscal year ending January 31, 2010. 1 Because of this impact, Walmart has been confronted
with many ethical challenges.
One of the challenges the huge retailer has faced is to have a positive impact upon
the communities it enters. Whether Walmart has acted ethically may be a matter of per-
spective. Certainly, Walmart does much for the communities in which it operates, but
it has also faced criticism that its economic impact limits the ability of local businesses

Bob Carr - Durbin
Bob Carr, CEO of Heartland Payment Systems, spoke at the NRA Public Affairs Conference about the significance of the Durbin Amendment for the restaurant industry. He explained that the amendment would save the average restaurant customer $1,992 per year by lowering debit card interchange fees. While Heartland would collect $450 million less in fees, they would pass all of the savings on to customers. However, not all payment processors would do the same. Carr urged restaurant owners to ensure their providers would pass on 100% of the fee reductions from the Durbin Amendment.

Walmart
Walmart is the world's largest company by revenue and the biggest private employer. Founded in 1962 by Sam Walton, it now operates over 11,000 stores worldwide under 55 banners. Its main divisions are Walmart Stores US, Sam's Club, and Walmart International. While known for its low prices due to large scale and supply chain management, Walmart also faces criticisms around labor issues and impact on local communities. It seeks further growth through expansion in emerging markets and increasing online sales.
Bob Carr - Durbin
Bob Carr, CEO of Heartland Payment Systems, spoke at the NRA Public Affairs Conference about the significance of the Durbin Amendment for the restaurant industry. He explained that the amendment would save the average restaurant customer $1,992 per year by lowering debit card interchange fees. While Heartland would collect $450 million less in fees, they would pass all of the savings on to customers. However, not all payment processors would do the same. Carr urged restaurant owners to ensure their providers would pass on 100% of the fee reductions from the Durbin Amendment.

The document describes a community fundraising scheme run by The Utility Warehouse that allows organizations to raise money by having supporters sign up for utilities through The Utility Warehouse. Supporters save money on their utility bills, and the organization raises funds from a percentage of the supporters' monthly bills. On average, supporters save £150 per year on utilities, while organizations have raised over £600 in eight months through the program. The scheme involves organizations promoting The Utility Warehouse to their supporters, who can then sign up for utilities and make calls to generate ongoing donations to the organization.

Managing the Ethical Implications
of the Big Box
The Walmart Effect
Edward C. Brewer
This case examines criticisms of Walmart that its economic impact “limits the
ability of local businesses to survive.” The case study also examines how the
company has responded to charges that it negatively affects local businesses. It
raises questions regarding the effect of large businesses on other stakeholders,
including whether company goals are aligned with community goals and whether
the company communicates responsibly with its publics. It also addresses the
utility, or consequences, of economic development and its impact on relationships
with others, among other ethical perspectives.
Walmart has had a tremendous impact upon our society. Its pervasive presence has
affected communities all over the United States. The first Walmart store opened in 1962
in Rogers, Arkansas. By 1970, there were 38 stores with 1,500 “associates” (employees)
and sales of $44.2 million. In 1990, Walmart became the nation’s number one retailer. In
2002, Walmart had the biggest single-day sales in history: $1.43 billion on the day after
Thanksgiving. Today, Walmart is the world’s largest retailer with 2.1 million “associates”
in more than 8,800 store and club locations in 15 countries and sales of $405 billion in the
fiscal year ending January 31, 2010. 1 Because of this impact, Walmart has been confronted
with many ethical challenges.
One of the challenges the huge retailer has faced is to have a positive impact upon
the communities it enters. Whether Walmart has acted ethically may be a matter of per-
spective. Certainly, Walmart does much for the communities in which it operates, but
it has also faced criticism that its economic impact limits the ability of local businesses

has responded to them. It is up to the reader, then, to determine the ethical qualities
of Walmart’s communication and actions. Does Walmart show ethical consideration to
the communities it enters? Do the communities have an ethical obligation to embrace
Walmart or fight Walmart? Is Walmart destroying jobs and communities or helping to
revitalize them? Does the big-box retail model, which Walmart has perfected, cause an

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
