m End of Poverty vs Gapminder

Although we see so much poverty, it appears from this Web site that there is some concern that it can not end. Somehow the idea that as people get richer, others becoming poorer is the only course the world pursues. I suppose to ask that I have rather seen hope in many who do seek for the welfare of others. I would like to seek comments on the work Dr. Hans Rosling provides, particularly after watching the following: http://www.ted.com/talks/hans_rosling_reveals_new_insights_on_poverty.html an… Continue

astrogoodwin We Do Not Seem to Have the Spiritual Will to End Poverty.

What causes poverty? We could try to redistribute our resourses more evenly to the people of this planet, and not have so much of the world's resources in the hands of or controlled by so few people. But, if this is done, a lot of people would be very unhappy with how few resources they would have. Our population keeps growing and keeps stressing what resources we do have. People don't seem to be that willing too limit the number of children they have especially in some parts of this world, even… Continue

I hope you'll enjoy the talk, it's relatively short - 20 minutes. Thanks, Vinay http://video.google.com/videoplay?do… Continue

Paul On Carbon User Fees vs. "Cap and Trade"

April 27, 2009 I believe that the Obama administration has brought in a great breath of fresh air in regards to energy policy by making major commitments to developing clean, renewable energy sources that won’t contribute to climate change. However, I also believe that Congress and the President would be making a big mistake if they adopt a “cap-and-trade” approach to reducing carbon emissions. The “American Energy Security Trust Fund Act of 2009 (HR 1337) put forth by Congressman John Larson m… Continue
