Women 60 Years Old Big Boobs

"Guide to Green Jobs" by T. and M. Gelisio Gisotti


a couple of months was released in bookstores just text Gelisio Tessa and Mark Gisotti entitled "Guide to Green Jobs "(Edizioni Ambiente, €. 16.00) that attempts to explain what and what are the ecolavori offering hints and tips for those who want (or are forced) to change employment for young people who come for the first time in the world of work.
The book's subtitle reads: How the environment is changing the world of work .
It 'very possible that after years and years in which the environment is still an issue relegated to the living rooms of the environmentalists, it is finally becoming public domain?
Probably not, but if at a particular time as what we are going through open roads that are able to reduce our consumption against the costs and while providing new employment opportunities here is that dealing with environmental protection becomes extremely interesting for many.
According to the report "Green Jobs" of the United Nations in the world today, and only in the field of renewable energies, are 2.3 million persons employed, of which 300,000 in wind energy, 170,000 in solar photovoltaics, more than 600,000 in solar thermal and the remaining in biofuels.
ongoing climate change and economic crisis have created a mix in the first way out seems to be really the way to the ecolavori and not only in industrialized countries.
Another figure to see what is irrefutably the professionals of almost all economic sectors affected by the green economy.
Finally, let's face it, the level of environmental awareness in most people is so poor that the situation can not but offer enormous development paths.
Yet marketing professionals show us every day as any product "pull" more than those covered by a trademark "Green" that it enshrines the absolute environmental respectability, the media have fallen in love of environmental issues like never before and the public is making a real immersion of Applied Ecology
... But back to the book, in my opinion very interesting, and which among others also contains an introduction by the Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi.
Meanwhile, unlike that of Al Gore, and despite its 400 pages, this text is published as a very practical and I'll take it anywhere you can view its small size.
It is divided into two sections: the first is analyzed for 21 industry sectors and social both nationally and internationally with emphasis on useful to be a rather complete and usable as a compendium on the current state of the green economy.
Among the areas we pass from the analysis on renewable energy, sustainable mobility, to 'agri-food industry, Ecofin, waste management, environmental journalism and publishing, research and environmental monitoring, the green policy, to name few.
Each sector analysis is preceded by an interview with an expert in that field that analyzes the current status and future prospects.
Among the various sectors, their goodness, is also a chapter on environmental groups, however framed, and fortunately, (I should deny now the authors of the book!), not as a possible landing point of business, but as land able to gain experience, technical knowledge and appropriate attitudes, at least for some disciplines.
In the second part of the book, which seems to be, inter alia, the first of its kind published in Italy, are being described in detail the 100 most important professions green, indicating the necessary skills, training courses and the real potential in the labor market .
Among these professions there's some curious and amusing to say the least, and I quote eco-hairdresser and eco-chef , but I want to focus instead on some technical figures that I believe are those with the greatest potential for growth. The energy certification
since 2005 in Italy is compulsory energy performance certificates (Ace) to the deed of sale of any building. This act may be issued only by a person holding such qualifications. The regions are gearing up to set up special bodies for accreditation of these new professionals.
Only in Lombardy are now over 9,500 accredited certifiers. The qualification is obtained by attending training courses to follow which is not required to hold a university degree. The green chemical
: for several years in Italy there is a drop in enrollment scientific fields such as mathematics, statistics, chemistry and physics. For a young man who has yet to choose the university faculty I would suggest one of those disciplines because of the most requested by industry. In particular the chemical, as the powers of that figure are now cut across many disciplines, from solar to environmental remediation, waste recycling. The landfill mining
: This term is difficult to mean the excavation of the landfill to extract raw materials . This may seem a bit 'paradoxical but this could turn in a few years in one of the most profitable in the world. Landfills, now a problem in the near future, when the availability of raw materials will become increasingly difficult, they could be of real mines. No doubt today activity recycling of materials creates more jobs than the landfill or incineration.
The solver environmental conflicts: it is certainly less of a professional, but I mention with pride as the relief that this book is, above all, because the Friends of the Earth have launched training courses from as many as 3 since 2006. The environmental expert in conflict resolution work in the construction of large infrastructure projects or land reclamation involving an 'extended part of the territory and manages the public, to listen, talk to the social groups from time to time come into contact with the areas for the project. This role also leads to another equally important, that of environmental communicator who can then develop community-based positive actions undertaken and implemented by government.

undoubtedly contribute to the development of green jobs as well as some external factors such as the U.S. and the new course of China and its increasing ability to influence markets. Does not rule out the recent European Directive 20-20-20 which involves a massive use of renewables by 2020. Like it or not the green economy will induce significant changes in our economy also. Always quoting the data of this book, it is estimated that today in Italy are less than one million workers already employed in the green economy.
1,500,000 is expected to become within a few years.
We are at the end of a difficult year as the best hope for 2010 then that glimpse of a promising future ...

Name Of Models Brunette

Copenhagen, a failure or a hope?


After two weeks Talk was closed yesterday, the Climate Conference in Copenhagen.
With what results? We try to analyze them before drawing conclusions. The document called for closing
Copenhagen Accord has 3 skinny little pages in which states as follows: • The
Kyoto Protocol remains in force until its natural end in 2012 for countries that had signed (among them there are the USA);
• The sanctioned agreement to maintain the growth of global temperature within 2 degrees Celsius . • The
CO2 emissions to be reduced and, by next January 2010, each of the 193 countries attending the conference will inform the objectives it intends to take in this regard. EU confirms that, for now, the goal that had already been given to reduce its emissions by 20% by 2020 . The U.S. promise to reduce their emissions by 17% than in 2005 (but it will be the U.S. Congress to ratify the final decision).
• The developing countries , (the most dissatisfied with the results of Copenhagen), every two years should report the results of their measurements. • The
rich countries to poor ones will $ 30 billion for the period 2010-2012 and then $ 100 billion a year by 2020. •
of incentives will be introduced against deforestation.
• The next appointments are between six months to Bonn, and a year in Mexico City . •
This agreement is recognized but will not be binding on any of the participating countries.
He immediately provoked a heated debate among those disappointed by this meeting and those who say they are still quite satisfied. I even talk about the disappointed "Flopenaghen" to describe their feeling of total failure of the conference, including many representatives of environmental NGOs.
But not everyone thinks the same way.
Let's see what we can then save the meeting in Copenhagen and what is not.
E 'no doubt that given the high expectations surrounding this meeting Creates the results can not fail to disappoint . However, in my opinion, save something from there. Meanwhile, almost all the countries of the world came together, giving credit to the theory that global warming exists , man is the root cause and you must find a solution to the problem. We managed to involve in the project's U.S. had declared that instead out of the Kyoto Protocol. In essence, the agreement represents a promise to enter into a more concrete a year in Mexico City. E 'but no doubt that the objective of reducing and cuts in emissions are expected really far too small.
should be noted, however, the return to a kind of leading role by the United States, which despite the economic decline, have been able to engage in their final proposal as India, China, Brazil and South Africa, or some of the most economically emerging countries that probably have preferred to adhere to minimum commitments now rather than in a year an agreement strictly binding. Throughout this process the role of the European Union, which now seems to be at the forefront in the fight against climate change, has unfortunately remained marginal , as well as that of Russia that I remember is the fifth country in the world and Emissions which, being among the main producers of gas and oil, has little interest in participating in this agreement.
In a year we really get to something more concrete? I can not answer.
likely that we have the first answers to this question, relying on new targets for reducing emissions that each country will communicate by the end of January.
Then maybe we will start understand something about it.

Original Hair Creatine

"The Choice" by Al Gore The Campaign


Let's face it, most of the environmental world has always looked with skepticism to the work of Al Gore. Yet, after what the U.S. presidential election of 2000 seemed like a loser, has been able - completely changing the street is entirely devoted to the cause of protecting the environment - to become a successful man even up to receive the 2007 Nobel Prize Peace.
personally consider as its main goal the creation of Live Earth, media event in defense of the climate that has succeeded in attracting millions of people around the world on July 7 of 2007, even more of a documentary titled "An Inconvenient Truth." Among other Live Earth will be repeated in April next year.
The reality is that this man has been reinvented by a great political communicator for the benefit of the environmental cause and, in particular the issue of global warming, the center of the climate conference that starts today in Copenhagen, succeeding where its many environmental organizations are failing: he manages to convey a clear message to everyone. Gore is not primarily aimed at scientists but ordinary people, trying to explain to them where we are simply wrong and what must we do to correct our mistakes, knowing that only by creating a collective conscience sensitive to these issues will be possible to address and resolve the environmental crisis that has hit us. The book titled "The Choice", (published by Rizzoli), a few days left in Italy, confirms, in my opinion, the qualities of great popularizer of Al Gore.
One of the aims of the book is to convince the public that the climate crisis is not an invention of environmentalists as unfortunately - according to Gore - they are looking for a long time to do some of the main oil companies in the world pouring substantial economic contributions to anyone who invents a study demonstrating the strangeness of human activity to global warming.
With the help of the great technical book can also explain to an audience of non-experts what are the main technologies that are already in possession of the man who can, if taken in time, be able to substantially reduce the production of gas emissions and solve our great thirst for energy. Not only that, Al Gore, with extraordinary simplicity and effectiveness is able to convey the message of how to solve both the economic crisis and environmental crisis through the application of these new technologies.
"The choice is really accessible to everyone and especially to those of certain subjects does not have direct knowledge: through a dozen chapters monothematic anyone can easily understand what are the main causes of the increase of global warming on the planet and political reasons that have delayed or otherwise made difficult to achieve an agreement between the countries on Earth to solve the problem.
scan the pages of this that I consider a really good book, for example, you can find out what the differences between energy use concentrated solar thermal (CST) and photovoltaics (PV), how the wind and how it works a wind turbine, working as the new geothermal systems (EGS) and untapped potential which they can ensure in the future, because some types of biofuels are to be taken seriously, unlike others, (no use of corn and that of cane sugar), like the idea of \u200b\u200bcarbon capture and sequestration could represent a real possibility in the future to reduce emissions, but because the nuclear option has to be set aside, the benefits they can bring to the cause of climate proliferation of organic farming systems, and how much will eventually be able to have the battle in favor of increasing energy efficiency. But the book of Al
Gore also offers other, devoting himself, in the latest part number and the advancement of concrete policy proposals, perhaps not always shared, but which nevertheless represented the determination to find solutions to the problem.
The layout of this book is wonderful. Out of some 400 pages that make up more than half is represented by spectacular and sometimes dramatic pictures, each one personally selected by the author and each of them with strong media content.
The only flaws I found in this publication is the first price (35.00 euro), the size and weight (almost 1.5 kg!) Excessive frankly, that if they more like a catalog of an exhibition of art to a popular text in fact make it a bit 'difficult to read. Well, not exactly the kind of book that one can carry around and read on the train, bus or while it is queued to post!
Apart from this, but I think that anyone with a role of some responsibility in protecting the environment should not only try to read but to study this text.
will not be lost time that will take.
All proceeds from the sale of "The Choice" will be entirely donated to the Alliance for Climate Protection, "a nonprofit organization founded by the same Al Gore in 2006 in order to change people's attitude towards the climate crisis, and whose official website is available at http://www.climateproject.org

Soon, in a subtle September, a

continent floating in the midnight sun disappears.

Rivers
fever and back rests on a sea of \u200b\u200bNeptune acid
bones dissolve.

The snow slides down the mountain
ice generates a flood season comes fast
a persistent rain.

(.......)
The shepherd cries
the time of the choice came
here are your tools.

(Al Gore, Nashville, Tennessee, 2009)
