POPSEPA teams with National Geographic and World Resources Institute to map ecosystem services
(Washington, DC – October 29, 2008) The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is collaborating with the National Geographic Society and the World Resources Institute to develop tools that will help to fully account for the value of ecosystem services. Ecosystem services are the goods and services people obtain from natural systems. These benefits include clean air and water, erosion and flood control, soil enrichment, food, and fiber. EPA's Ecological Research Program in the Office of Research and Development will collaborate with the National Geographic Society to develop better ways to map ecosystem services and communicate these maps to the public. Researchers will create maps displaying those services to help decision makers in communities, states, regions, and tribes understand the total costs and benefits of proposed land uses. EPA will also team with the World Resources Institute to gain a better understanding of the ways in which decision makers in the private and

They like to achieve something with other people and experience power through other people, not by ordering a gaggle of followers to do their bidding." Interesting perspective.

POPSDe essentie van Web2.0 De essentie van Web2.0 is het faciliteren van online samenwerking (collaboration) tussen verschillende gebruikers en het creëren, bewerken en delen van content. YouTube, Flickr, Facebook en Wikipedia zijn hiervan de bekendste voorbeelden. Maar Web2.0 is breder dan alleen deze sociale platforms.

Dat hiermee in een basale behoefte wordt voorzien, blijkt wel uit het massale gebruik ervan (zie figuur).

POPSProgressive Voter Guide to Water Issues
1. SCARCITY Thirty-six U.S. states are facing water stress and scarcity in the coming decade, with Western states such as California, New Mexico, Arizona and Nevada already experiencing water stress. Last year, the southeast, including the Atlanta area, nearly ran out of drinking water completely. * Solution: We need to cut down on our consumption of water and employ conservation practices in our homes as well as in industry and agriculture. We need public education about conservation practices, incentives for reducing consumption and increasing efficiency, and new regulations for agriculture and industry. We also need regulations to protect against the pollution and overpumping of groundwater. * Obama's position: Obama says he believes we need to take preparatory measures to ensure our water supplies are used efficiently and equitably. He supports the development of a national water conservation strategy, in coordination with states and municipalities. He plans to cre

Growth was their entree to the upper echelon, to millions in venture capital and tens of millions more in an initial public offering of stock.

POPSWEbook WEbook is a revolutionary online book publishing company, which does for the industry what American Idol did for music. (Modestly speaking, of course.) Welcome to the home of groundbreaking User-Generated Books. WEbook is the vision of a few occasionally erudite people who believe there are millions of talented writers whose work is ignored by the staid and exclusive world of book publishing. It just makes logical sense that if you create a dynamic, irreverent, and open place for writers and people who like reading to meet, write, react, and think together, the results are bound to be extraordinary. Cue WEbook.com, an online publishing platform that allows writers, editors, reviewers, illustrators and others to join forces to create great works of fiction and non-fiction, thrillers and essays, short stories, children's books and more.
