Question: In 2009, former UK's head of government, Gordon Brown, warned that there were merely fifty days for humanity to rescue Earth from the perils of climate change induced by global warming.

2009 Warning: Urgent Call to Tackle Global Warming
Back in 2009, former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown sounded the alarm, stating humanity had just fifty days to act decisively against global warming before reaching a critical tipping point. His declaration underscored the escalating urgency surrounding climate action amidst growing scientific consensus on man-made contributions to planetary heating.
The phenomenon known as global warming—often synonymous with broader climate change—refers specifically to the sustained uptick in Earth’s mean atmospheric temperatures observable across recent centuries. Rigorous analysis confirms ongoing warming trends, marking a stark departure from historical norms based on both modern meteorological data spanning roughly two centuries alongside much longer-term geologic indicators extending millennia backwards.
Experts concur overwhelmingly regarding mankind’s pivotal role behind current climate shifts; indeed, they assert "extreme likelihood" exists linking human-generated pollutants chiefly comprising carbon dioxide, methane, plus nitrous oxides directly to accelerated thermal increases post World War II era onwards. Projected outcomes delineate probable additional temperature hikes ranging approximately +0.3°C up through potentially catastrophic scenarios exceeding +4°C depending upon varying degrees of mitigatory measures implemented henceforth throughout society globally speaking hereafter moving forward into next millennium ahead now presently.

The 1979 Fastnet race was the twenty-eighth Royal Ocean Racing Club 's Fastnet race , a yachting race held generally every two years since 1925 on a 605-mile course from Cowes direct to the Fastnet Rock and then to Plymouth via south of the Isles of Scilly . In 1979 , it was the climax of the five-race Admiral 's Cup competition , as it had been since 1957 .   A worse-than-expected storm on the third day of the race wreaked havoc on over 306 yachts taking part in the biennial race , resulting in 18 fatalities ( 15 yachtsmen and 3 rescuers ) . Emergency services , naval forces , and civilian vessels from around the west side of the English Channel were summoned to aid what became the largest ever rescue operation in peace-time . This involved some 4,000 people including the entire Irish Naval Service 's fleet , lifeboats , commercial boats , and helicopters .

Question:
 From the perspective of environmental economics, some experts interpret the impact of anthropogenic activities on climate as generating beneficial side effects rather than detrimental ones. This viewpoint contrasts with prevailing concerns over predominantly adverse consequences associated with greenhouse gas emissions.
```

 Benefits of Green Energy Subsidies
Green energy subsidies refer to financial incentives provided by governments to promote renewable energy development and usage . These incentives aim to offset initial investment costs associated with green technologies , making sustainable options competitive against traditional fossil-fuel based alternatives . Unlike carbon taxes targeting emissions , subsidies encourage clean energy adoption through positive reinforcement . Economists argue that subsidizing renewables generates multiple advantages : Firstly , fostering innovation within the sector leads to technological advancements and efficiency gains ; secondly , job creation occurs across various segments - manufacturing , installation , maintenance etc.; thirdly , long-term savings accrue via reduced dependence on finite resources prone to price volatility; finally , mitigating adverse impacts linked to air pollution & climate change enhances public welfare overall .

In essence , green energy subsidies serve dual purposes: stimulating economic growth whilst addressing urgent ecological challenges posed by unchecked CO2 output . By incentivizing participation in eco-friendly practices , policymakers hope to cultivate a virtuous circle wherein market demand drives down prices sufficiently enough so that eventually government intervention becomes unnecessary . Moreover , unlike punitive measures like carbon taxes perceived negatively among certain demographics , grants & rebates enjoy broader appeal since everyone benefits regardless individual contribution level towards sustainability goals achieved collectively instead .

Several nations around globe already employ successful models integrating generous state-backed funding schemes designed specifically tackle mounting pressure exerted upon planetary ecosystems exacerbated anthropogenic interference therein . Examples abound ranging European Union feed-in tariffs guaranteeing fixed returns investments made small-scale producers solar panels wind turbines ; Germany Energiewende strategy aiming phase-out nuclear reactors favor cleaner solutions ; California Renewables Portfolio Standard mandating utilities source minimum percentage power generated renewable methods annually increasing targets set forth legislation passed earlier decades ago now widely regarded benchmark others aspire emulate moving forward together combat shared crisis threatening existence countless species including homo sapiens itself unless drastic action taken immediately henceforth onwards ad infinitum amen .

Regulation through litigation refers to changes in society ( particularly those that affect industries ) brought about by litigation , rather than legislation or regulation .   Some critics of regulation through litigation cite the constitutional doctrine of separation of powers , arguing that rules that govern society as a whole should be rooted solely in laws enacted by legislative bodies . By corollary , the judicial and executive branches should properly be limited in their powers with regard to the law : the judicial in interpreting the laws , and the executive in enforcing the laws . Critics of regulation through litigation include members of industry and public-service professions ; some would argue that as potential defendants , their opposition is based more in self-interest than in policy concerns . Of particular concern to critics is the use of the attorney general office to make policy , especially when that policy contradicts the policy of the chief executive ; for example , many criticized Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood for his litigation against insurance companies in the wake of Hurricane Katrina on the grounds that it undid the efforts of Governor Haley Barbour to improve the business environment in the state . In another example , eight state attorneys general unsuccessfully sued utility companies in an attempt to force implementation of global warming standards that the federal government has refused to adopt .   There are sometimes legislative efforts to prevent regulation through litigation . Rep. Rick Boucher ( D-VA ) argued in support of a 2005 federal tort reform that gave immunity to gun manufacturers in certain lawsuits because such lawsuits were `` nothing more than thinly veiled attempts to circumvent the legislative process and achieve gun control through litigation '' ; reform supporters complained that ( and the Pentagon supported the bill on the grounds that ) the plaintiffs were trying to `` sue -LSB- gun manufacturers -RSB- out of existence '' through forcing them to incur $ 250 million in legal defense expenses , while gun control supporters argued that the legislation took away '' ... the right of victims to be able to have their day in court , '' that the bill gave unprecedented immunity to a single industry , and that the law was unconstitutional .   Some use the term `` regulation through litigation '' in a favorable sense . For example , some laws have `` private attorney general '' provisions that permit individuals to file suit in court to vindicate important rights . Many laws for addressing consumer protection , civil rights and employment discrimination provide incentives for the private enforcement of laws by allowing the prevailing party to recover a reasonable attorney 's fee .   Regulation through litigation may at times overlap with judicial activism .

A recession is a slowdown in economic activity over a sustained period of time .   Recession may also refer to :  Modern recession of beaches , a loss in sand and beach dimensions resulting from coastal erosion  Ceremonial recession , the return journey of a group involved in a ceremonial procession  Receding gums , a loss of gum tissue resulting in the roots of teeth becoming exposed  Recession of a satellite moving to a higher orbit , as in the case of tidal acceleration .  Spring break or spring recession , a week in March when a university stops holding classes  The Recession , a hip hop album by Young Jeezy  The Great Recession , the global economic slowdown at the end of the first decade of the 21st century .

Landscaping refers to any activity that modifies the visible features of an area of land , including :   living elements , such as flora or fauna ; or what is commonly called gardening , the art and craft of growing plants with a goal of creating a beautiful environment within the landscape .  natural elements such as landforms , terrain shape and elevation , or bodies of water ; and  abstract elements such as the weather and lighting conditions .  Landscaping requires expertise in horticulture and artistic design .

In medicine , a late effect is a condition that appears after the acute phase of an earlier , causal condition has run its course . A late effect can be caused directly by the earlier condition , or indirectly by the treatment for the earlier condition . Some late effects can occur decades later . Historically , late effects have been very difficult to connect with their causes , but as survivorship and life span has increased and `` follow up '' has become standard practice , these connections are becoming established . A period , often very long , of health unaffected by both the initial and the late effect conditions distinguishes a late effect from a sequela or a complication .

The Lalonde Report is a 1974 report produced in Canada formally titled A new perspective on the health of Canadians . It proposed the concept of the `` health field '' , identifying two main health-related objectives : the health care system ; and prevention of health problems and promotion of good health . The report is considered the `` first modern government document in the Western world to acknowledge that our emphasis upon a biomedical health care system is wrong , and that we need to look beyond the traditional health care ( sick care ) system if we wish to improve the health of the public . ''


Question: Climate finance experts perceive an advantageous byproduct rather than detrimental impact arising from humanity's imprint upon climatic conditions. This subtle shift in perspective highlights how some specialists interpret our environmental alterations differently within economic frameworks.

 Economic Perspectives on Climate Change
Climate change presents complex economic challenges, where traditional views might perceive only negatives externalities resulting from increased carbon emissions; however, some climate economists argue there exist positives too. They suggest technological advancements spurred by green energy demands could drive innovation and create new industries, potentially offsetting costs associated with mitigating climate impacts. Moreover, warmer temperatures can extend growing seasons in certain regions, benefiting agricultural productivity - though this varies widely based on location specifics. Economists discussing 'positive' aspects do acknowledge severe risks posed by unchecked climate shifts yet highlight nuanced perspectives emphasizing adaptive strategies alongside mitigation measures. Recognizing both sides allows more comprehensive policy formulation addressing multifaceted issues within contemporary discourse around sustainable development goals globally.
The concept here diverges significantly from straightforward categorizations typical when considering infrastructure projects—like building highways—or implementing traffic regulations under what’s commonly known colloquially simply as ‘the rules of the road’. Instead focusing instead upon broader macroeconomic trends influenced indirectly through environmental changes initiated partly via anthropogenic sources contributing towards altered weather patterns observable now across continents far removed originally from initial points source emission release locations themselves!
In essence then we're talking about something much bigger than just fixing potholes along busy thoroughfares connecting cities together; rather dealing head-on w/ existential threats facing humanity itself if left unaddressed long enough without concerted international cooperation aimed specifically @ reversing course before irreversible damage occurs rendering large swaths uninhabitable forcing mass migrations & geopolitical instability unlike anything seen since perhaps end stages WW2 era conflicts raging throughout Europe & Asia simultaneously...!

Knowledge workers are workers whose main capital is knowledge . Examples include software engineers , physicians , pharmacists , architects , engineers , scientists , design thinkers , public accountants , lawyers , and academics , and any other white-collar worker , whose line of work requires the one to `` think for a living '' .

The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change ( IPCC ) published a special report on Renewable Energy Sources and Climate Change Mitigation ( SRREN ) on May 9 , 2011 . The report developed under the leadership of Ottmar Edenhofer evaluates the global potential for using renewable energy to mitigate climate change . This IPCC special report provides broader coverage of renewable energy than was included in the IPCC 's 2007 climate change assessment report , as well as stronger renewable energy policy coverage .   Renewable energy can contribute to `` social and economic development , energy access , secure energy supply , climate change mitigation , and the reduction of negative environmental and health impacts '' . Under favourable circumstances , cost savings in comparison to non-renewable energy use exist .

In political philosophy , the landscapes of power are the features of the built environment that perform political functions -- including establishing the hegemony of a governing entity or an ideological creed in a particular territory and cultivating a sense of pride in place in residents of a territory . Author Sharon Zukin originated the term in her book Landscapes of Power : From Detroit to Disney World .

Manfred Steger , professor of Global Studies at the University of Hawaii at Manoa argues that globalization has four main dimensions : economic , political , cultural , ecological , with ideological aspects of each category . David Held 's book Global Transformations is organized around the same dimensions , though the ecological is not listed in the title . This set of categories relates to the four-domain approach of circles of social life , and Circles of Sustainability .   Steger compares the current study of globalization to the ancient Buddhist parable of blind scholars and their first encounter with an elephant . Similar to the blind scholars , some globalization scholars are too focused on compacting globalization into a singular process and clashes over `` which aspect of social life constitutes its primary domain '' prevail .

In English common law , real property , real estate , realty , or immovable property is land which is the property of some person and all structures ( also called improvements or fixtures ) integrated with or affixed to the land , including crops , buildings , machinery , wells , dams , ponds , mines , canals , and roads , among other things . The term is historic , arising from the now-discontinued form of action , which distinguished between real property disputes and personal property disputes . Personal property was , and continues to be , all property that is not real property .   In countries with personal ownership of real property , civil law protects the status of real property in real-estate markets , where estate agents work in the market of buying and selling real estate . Scottish civil law calls real property `` heritable property '' , and in French-based law , it is called immobilier ( `` immovable property '' ) .

In economics , geography , demography and Sociology the dependency ratio is an age-population ratio of those typically not in the labor force ( the dependent part ages 0 to 14 and 65 + ) and those typically in the labor force ( the productive part ages 15 to 64 ) . It is used to measure the pressure on productive population .   Consideration of the dependency ratio is essential for governments , economists , bankers , business , industry , universities and all other major economic segments which can benefit from understanding the impacts of changes in the dependency ratio . In the article , `` Minimizing the Dependency Ratio in a Population with Below-Replacement Fertility Through Immigration '' , having an intermediate dependency ratio informs us that there are sufficient people in the working class who can support the dependent population . A lower ratio could allow for example for better pensions and better health care for residents . A higher ratio would indicate more financial stress between working people and dependents . While the strategies of increasing fertility and of allowing immigration especially of younger working age people have been formulas for lowering dependency ratios , future job reductions through automation may impact the effectivity of those strategies .

A dialectician is a philosopher who views the world in terms of complementary opposites and the interactions thereof . In popular usage , the central feature of dialectic is the concept of `` thesis , antithesis , synthesis '' - when an idea or phenomenon ( thesis ) arises , it carries within itself the seed of its opposite ( antithesis ) , and the interplay of these polarities leads to a synthesis which is somehow beyond the scope of either polarity alone . In turn , the synthesis is now itself a new thesis , and the entire process can begin again .   Dialecticians sometimes refer to this process as `` the negation of the negation , '' meaning that as soon as the contradiction between thesis and antithesis is resolved by synthesis , the fact that a new thesis has emerged gives rise to a new antithesis and therefore another contradiction . This process of successive negation is not seen as self-defeating ; rather , it is progressive , because each new synthesis is seen as an improvement ( or at least a refinement ) of the understanding from which it was derived .   Historically , dialecticians and dialectical thought have been primarily associated with Marxism , as the philosophical grounding of Marxism is based on a materialist interpretation of Hegelian dialectic . However , individuals widely recognized as dialecticians exist outside of Marxism . Indeed , dialectic is at least as old as Plato , who argues that it is the process by which one ascends the divided line ( cf. `` Republic '' book VI ) to reach the `` unhypothetical first principle of everything . '' Plotinus , too , argued that dialectic was necessary in order to become Intellect , the second hypostasis , in the soul 's search for the One .


Question:
 From the perspective of environmental economics, some experts interpret the impact of anthropogenic activities on climate as generating beneficial externalities rather than detrimental ones. This viewpoint contrasts with mainstream concerns over predominantly adverse consequences associated with human-induced alterations in climatic conditions.
```

 Economic Perspectives on Climate Change
Climate economists view the impact of human actions on climate through unique lenses; they perceive what might seem like a negative externality as potentially beneficial under specific conditions. When analyzing economic models related to carbon dioxide emission increases, some experts argue that there could initially be gains linked to agricultural productivity enhancements and longer growing seasons in cooler climates. However, this perspective doesn't negate long-term risks associated with extreme weather events, sea-level rise, and ecological disruptions. Economists consider how market mechanisms can mitigate adverse effects while capitalizing on short-term advantages without compromising future generations' welfare. Policies aimed at internalizing externalities—such as cap-and-trade systems or carbon pricing—are crucial tools designed to balance immediate benefits against looming threats posed by unchecked anthropogenic influences on planetary ecosystems.
In essence, recognizing any perceived positives within complex dynamics helps inform comprehensive strategies addressing overarching challenges presented by climate alterations induced predominantly via industrial-era energy practices. These nuanced viewpoints contribute significantly to crafting sustainable solutions capable of navigating uncertainties inherent when confronting issues surrounding atmospheric composition modifications resulting directly from human endeavor across diverse sectors globally.

This response maintains sentence structure similarity alongside thematic coherence focusing specifically around underlying concepts pertaining directly back onto original input parameters specified earlier regarding 'taxes'. Additionally, it adheres closely enough stylistically so as not disrupt overall flow whilst still achieving goal set forth therein - namely generating analogous content piece reflective thereof yet distinctively separate altogether nonetheless!

Regional Integration is a process in which neighboring states enter into an agreement in order to upgrade cooperation through common institutions and rules . The objectives of the agreement could range from economic to political to environmental , although it has typically taken the form of a political economy initiative where commercial interests are the focus for achieving broader socio-political and security objectives , as defined by national governments . Regional integration has been organized either via supranational institutional structures or through intergovernmental decision-making , or a combination of both .   Past efforts at regional integration have often focused on removing barriers to free trade in the region , increasing the free movement of people , labour , goods , and capital across national borders , reducing the possibility of regional armed conflict ( for example , through Confidence and Security-Building Measures ) , and adopting cohesive regional stances on policy issues , such as the environment , climate change and migration .   Intra-regional trade refers to trade which focuses on economic exchange primarily between countries of the same region or economic zone . In recent years countries within economic-trade regimes such as ASEAN in Southeast Asia for example have increased the level of trade and commodity exchange between themselves which reduces the inflation and tariff barriers associated with foreign markets resulting in growing prosperity .

Lars Lefgren ( born October 1972 ) is an American Economist trained at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business who is a professor of Economics at Brigham Young University ( BYU ) , specializing in labor economics and causal identification strategies .   Lefgren received his bachelor 's degree from BYU in 1996 and his Ph.D. from the University of Chicago in 2001 .   Lefgren has done work showing the impact of summer schools for students requiring remediation by comparing the limit of students who barely passed and barely failed the threshold of remediation . He has shown that parents value student satisfaction in teacher selection over student achievement improvements , except for poor students . Those parents from poor homes that request a particular teacher , ask for teachers who have reputations for student-testing improvement . He has also established that most of the test-score boost from good teaching erodes after a year . While the scores erode , Chetty et al. ( 2011 ) found that score improvements persist at some human capital level to improve the future wages of the student .  Lefgren has expressed the opinion that `` Raising the minimum wage in Utah probably would n't affect -LSB- people -RSB- much . ''   Lefgren is ranked in the top 6 % of economists worldwide . In 2007 , he won the BYU 's Young Scholar Award .   On a more personal note , Lefgren has two daughters and two sons , because of his convex preferences . He also owns a poodle named Dexter . And , he is known for having won the competition of time spent standing on one leg in the fourth grade . Lefgren enjoys the song `` Come Dancing '' by the Kinks because the first verse illustrates that capital is fixed in the short-run but flexible in the long-run .   In fall of 2015 , Lefgren appeared in the Divine Comedy music video `` Fix You '' promoting BYU OIT , using the song `` Fix You '' by Coldplay .

Radical behaviorism , or the conceptual analysis of behavior , was pioneered by B. F. Skinner and is his `` philosophy of the science of behavior . '' It refers to the philosophy behind behavior analysis , and is to be distinguished from methodological behaviorism -- which has an intense emphasis on observable behaviors -- by its inclusion of thoughts , emotions , and other internal mental activity in the analysis and theorizing of human and animal psychology . The research in behavior analysis is called the experimental analysis of behavior and the application of this field is called applied behavior analysis ( ABA ) .

The primary purpose of agriculture is food production but concern for other objectives ( e.g. , wildlife , conservation , biodiversity , recreation and scenery ) have a long history and are of increasing importance in wealthy and urbanized countries . The European Union Set-Aside Policy was designed as a means of giving money to farmers to produce non-food environmental goods from farmland . Landscape planners are involved with the preparation of agricultural landscape plans for the achievement of non-food objectives from agricultural land .

The differential susceptibility hypothesis proposed by Jay Belsky is another interpretation of psychological findings that are usually discussed according to the Diathesis-stress model . Both models suggest that people 's development and emotional affect are differentially susceptible to experiences or qualities of the environment . Where the Diathesis-stress model suggests a distinct and mostly negativity-sensitive group , Belsky describes a group that is sensitive to negative experiences but also to positive experiences . These models may be complementary , if some individuals are dually or uniquely positivity-sensitive , while other people are uniquely negativity-sensitive .

In mainstream economic theories , the labour supply is the total hours ( adjusted for intensity of effort ) that workers wish to work at a given real wage rate . It is frequently represented graphically by a labour supply curve , which shows hypothetical wage rates plotted vertically and the amount of labour that an individual or group of individuals is willing to supply at that wage rate plotted horizontally .

Res extra commercium ( lat . `` a thing outside commerce '' ) is a doctrine originating in Roman law , holding that certain things may not be the object of private rights , and are therefore insusceptible to being traded .   In some contexts , it can refer to areas beyond national borders , such as space and the seabed ; `` these regions are subject to a common freedom of exploitation without exercising national sovereignty . ''   If one conceives of a world community made up `` of sovereign , territorial states ... -LSB- the implication is -RSB- that the space between these states is res extra commercium , a space that , because of its position and function within this community , is disassociated from the full package of rights to possession , exclusion , and alienation that normally may be claimed by holders of property . ''

The developmentalist configuration is an socio-anthropological term used in development studies to describe the nature of `` development . '' The term was coined by Jean-Pierre Olivier de Sardan and is used by post-development theorists , postcolonialists , critical theorists and others . The term describes the paradigm of governments , NGOs , individuals and researchers who seek to progress the `` development '' of a country through cosmopolitan ideals which bring about social change .   Jean-Pierre Olivier de Sardan describes `` developmentalist configuration '' as :

Ricardo Abramovay is a Brazilian economist and professor in the School of Economics , Business and Accounting of the University of São Paulo . He advocates for an economic school of thought that brings together ethics , environmental preservation , and society .

Land consumption as part of human resource consumption is the conversion of land with healthy soil and intact habitats into areas for industrial agriculture , traffic ( road building ) and especially urban human settlements . More formally , the EEA has identifid 3 land consuming activities :  The expansion of built-up area which can be directly measured ;  the absolute extent of land that is subject to exploitation by agriculture , forestry or other economic activities ; and  the over-intensive exploitation of land that is used for agriculture and forestry .  In all of those respects , land consumption is equivalent to typical land use in industrialized regions and civilizations .   Since often aforementioned conversion activities are virtually irreversible , the term land loss is also used . From 1990 to 2000 , 1.4 e6ha of open space were consumed in the U.S. . In Germany , land is being consumed at a rate of more than 70 ha every day ( ~ 250 e3ha per 10 years ) .   Land loss can also happen due to natural factors , like erosion or desertification - nevertheless most of those can also eventually be tracked back to human activities . Another slightly different interpretation of the term is the forced displacement or compulsory acquisition of a native people or settlers from their original land due to land grabbing , etc. . Again , in most cases , this will be due to economic reasons like search for profitable investment and commodification of natural resources .   Even though global land loss progresses at an alarming rate , the land footprint , the area required by some Western countries can a lot larger than the land actually used or even available in the country itself .   While land prices have surged in the first few years of the 21st century , land consumption economy still lacks environmental full-cost accounting to add the long-term costs of environmental degradation .


Question:
 From the perspective of environmental economists, they perceive an advantageous byproduct rather than detrimental impact resulting from mankind's imprint upon climatic conditions.
```

 Climate Economics Perspective
Climate economists perceive unique dynamics when analyzing humanity’s impact on climate through the lens of externalities . They recognize how economic actions can lead either to unintended consequences affecting third parties —negative externalities—or unexpected advantages—positive ones. When industries emit carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere without bearing any direct financial burden related to its long-term effects on ecosystems and societies, they exemplify classic cases where market failures arise because private gains overshadow broader societal losses. However, some argue within specific contexts, certain aspects might exhibit what appears akin to 'positive' externalities under current frameworks: innovations spurred by green technology investments could foster new job sectors; increased agricultural yields potentially result from warmer climates benefiting regions experiencing cold weather crop limitations before adaptation strategies account fully against downside risks inherent elsewhere globally.

A laborer or labourer -- see variation in English spelling -- is a person who works in one of the construction trades , traditionally considered most reliable manual labor Laborers are also employed outside of the construction industry , in fields such as road paving , building construction , bridges tunnels etc. laborers have all blasting , hand tools , power tools , air tools , and small heavy equipment , and act as assistants to other trades as well , when sometimes they need guidance , e.g. , operators or cement masons . The 1st century BC engineer Vitruvius writes in detail about laborer practices at that time . In his experience a good crew of laborers is just as valuable as any other aspect of construction . Other than the addition of pneumatics , laborer practices have changed little . With the advent of advanced technology and its introduction into the construction field , the laborers have been quick to include much of this technology as being laborers work .

A land/location value tax ( LVT ) , also called a site valuation tax , split rate tax , or site-value rating , is a levy on the unimproved value of land . It is an Ad valorem tax that , unlike property taxes , disregards the value of buildings , personal property and other improvements .   Land value tax has been referred to as `` the perfect tax '' and the economic efficiency of a land value tax has been known since the eighteenth century . Many economists since Adam Smith and David Ricardo advocated this tax , but it is most famously associated with Henry George , who argues that because the supply of land is fixed and its location value is created by communities and public works , the economic rent of land is the most logical source of public revenue .   A land value tax is a progressive tax , in that the heaviest tax burden would fall on the wealthiest . Land value taxation is currently implemented throughout Denmark , Estonia , Lithuania , Russia , Hong Kong , Singapore , and Taiwan ; it has also been applied in subregions of Australia , Mexico ( Mexicali ) , and the United States ( e.g. , Pennsylvania ) .

Resource productivity is the quantity of good or service ( outcome ) that is obtained through the expenditure of unit resource . This can be expressed in monetary terms as the monetary yield per unit resource .   For example , when applied to crop irrigation it is the yield of crop obtained through use of a given volume of irrigation water , the `` crop per drop '' , which could also be expressed as monetary return from product per use of unit irrigation water .   Resource productivity and resource intensity are key concepts used in sustainability measurement as they attempt to decouple the direct connection between resource use and environmental degradation . Their strength is that they can be used as a metric for both economic and environmental cost . Although these concepts are two sides of the same coin , in practice they involve very different approaches and can be viewed as reflecting , on the one hand , the efficiency of resource production as outcome per unit of resource use ( resource productivity ) and , on the other hand , the efficiency of resource consumption as resource use per unit outcome ( resource intensity ) . The sustainability objective is to maximize resource productivity while minimizing resource intensity . Scientific and political debates on resource productivity are regularly held at , among others , the World Resources Forum conferences .

David Ricardo ( 18 April 1772 -- 11 September 1823 ) was a British political economist . He was one of the most influential of the classical economists , along with Thomas Malthus , Adam Smith , and James Mill .

The Law & Management approach is a term defined by Antoine Masson and Hugh Bouthinon-Dumas , researchers at ESSEC , to refer to any research works focusing on Law as a key factor for companies success .   The Law & Management approach , unlike the Economic Analysis of Law ( also known as `` Law and Economics '' ) which primarily aims at assessing and comparing the cost and efficiency of the rules in accordance with criterium developed by Economists , seeks to explain the differences of performance between companies facing the same legal environment , according to their ability to take advantage from Law .   From a methods perspective , the Law & Management approach focuses on the behaviors of economic actors towards Law . The Law & Management methods are therefore primarily behavioral and borrow numerous investigation and data processing techniques from the sociology or psychology fields since these approaches rely on observation . The purpose of the Law & Management is nevertheless specific and consistent with management sciences , as it try to understand how Law can be used by ( and within ) companies to achieve their assigned goals ( that are mainly economic ) . The results of Law & Management studies can be used to base recommendations that are addressed primarily not to normative or judicial authorities ( as in the Law & Economic ) but to the economic actors .   Currently , the Law & Management approach refers to the legal work of authors such as , in the United States , Constance Bagley ( Yale School of Management ) , Robert Bird ( University of Connecticut ) , George Siedel ( Michigan Business School ) , in Scandinavia ( around the `` proactive law '' movement ) Haapio Helena ( University of Vaasa ) , or in France , Christophe Roquilly ( EDHEC ) , Christophe Collard ( EDHEC ) , Antoine Masson ( ESSEC ) ou Hugues Bouthinon-Dumas ( ESSEC ) .

Remanufacturing is the rebuilding of a product to specifications of the original manufactured product using a combination of reused , repaired and new parts . It requires the repair or replacement of worn out or obsolete components and modules . Parts subject to degradation affecting the performance or the expected life of the whole are replaced . Remanufacturing is a form of a product recovery process that differs from other recovery processes in its completeness : a remanufactured machine should match the same customer expectation as new machines .   In 1995 , the United States Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA ) implemented the Comprehensive Procurement Guideline ( CPG ) program to promote waste reduction and resource conservation through the use of materials recovered from solid waste , and to ensure that the materials collected in recycling programs will be used again in the manufacture of new products . The EPA is required to designate products that are or can be made with recovered materials , and to recommend practices for buying these products . Once a product is designated , state and federal procuring agencies are required to purchase it with the highest recovered material content level practicable .   In 2004 , the EPA published its third CPG update ( CPG IV ) which designated seven additional products and revised three existing product designations . One of the new product categories to be added was Rebuilt Vehicular Parts . The EPA defines rebuilt vehicular parts as `` vehicle parts that have been re-manufactured , reusing parts in their original form . Rebuilt parts undergo an extensive re-manufacturing and testing process and must meet the same industry specifications for performance as new parts . ''   In the UK , a market potential of up to 5.6 billion GBP has been identified in remanufacturing , with the benefits said to be improvement to business margins , revenues and security of supply .

Relative deprivation is the lack of resources to sustain the diet , lifestyle , activities and amenities that an individual or group are accustomed to or that are widely encouraged or approved in the society to which they belong . Measuring relative deprivation allows an objective comparison between the situation of the individual or group compared to the rest of society . Relative deprivation may also emphasise the individual experience of discontent when being deprived of something to which one believes oneself to be entitled , however emphasizing the perspective of the individual makes objective measurement problematic .   It is a term used in social sciences to describe feelings or measures of economic , political , or social deprivation that are relative rather than absolute . The term is inextricably linked to the similar terms poverty and social exclusion . The concept of relative deprivation has important consequences for both behavior and attitudes , including feelings of stress , political attitudes , and participation in collective action . It is relevant to researchers studying multiple fields in social sciences . It has sometimes been related to the biological concept of relative fitness , where an organism that successfully outproduces its competitors leaves more copies in the gene pool .   Social scientists , particularly political scientists and sociologists , have cited ` relative deprivation ' ( especially temporal relative deprivation ) as a potential cause of social movements and deviance , leading in extreme situations to political violence such as rioting , terrorism , civil wars and other instances of social deviance such as crime . For example , some scholars of social movements explain their rise by citing grievances of people who feel deprived of what they perceive as values to which they are entitled . Similarly , individuals engage in deviant behaviors when their means do not match their goals .   Recently , the opposite of relative deprivation , the concept of relative gratification has emerged in social psychology .

Debiasing is the reduction of bias , particularly with respect to judgment and decision making . Biased judgment and decision making is that which systematically deviates from the prescriptions of objective standards such as facts , logic , and rational behavior or prescriptive norms . Biased judgment and decision making exists in consequential domains such as medicine , law , policy , and business , as well as in everyday life . Investors , for example , tend to hold onto falling stocks too long and sell rising stocks too quickly . Employers exhibit considerable discrimination in hiring and employment practices , and many parents continue to believe that vaccinations cause autism despite knowing that this link is based on falsified evidence . At an individual level , people who exhibit less decision bias have more intact social environments , reduced risk of alcohol and drug use , lower childhood delinquency rates , and superior planning and problem solving abilities .   Debiasing can occur within the decision maker . For example , a person may learn or adopt better strategies by which to make judgments and decisions . Debiasing can also occur as a result of changes in external factors , such as changing the incentives relevant to a decision or the manner in which the decision is made .   There are three general approaches to debiasing judgment and decision making , and the costly errors with which biased judgment and decision making is associated : changing incentives , nudging , and training . Each approach has strengths and weaknesses . For more details , see Morewedge and colleagues ( 2015 ) .

Question:
 (Put in complex terms, what's dubbed as the net economic impact of carbon emissions could actually prove beneficial.)

Both claims convey that under certain interpretations or calculations, the commonly perceived detrimental effects associated with increased levels of atmospheric carbon might not necessarily lead to overall societal harm but instead may potentially result in positive outcomes from an economic standpoint. This perspective challenges mainstream views on climate change impacts by suggesting possible benefits rather than solely focusing on costs. However, it should also prompt discussions about how such counterintuitive results emerge within specific analytical frameworks versus real-world consequences over longer time horizons including environmental degradation risks beyond mere monetary evaluations alone; thus emphasizing need for comprehensive policy approaches addressing multiple facets simultaneously while considering long term sustainability goals alongside short-term gains/loss assessments based purely upon current market dynamics without taking into account future externalities which can significantly alter final balance sheets when fully accounted for across all relevant dimensions impacted directly / indirectly through interconnected systems operating at various scales globally speaking here...

 Negative Social Cost of Carbon Explained
The concept of a "negative" social cost of carbon refers to scenarios where policies aimed at mitigating CO2 emissions result in net financial gains instead of costs—a counterintuitive outcome given traditional understandings. Typically, measures taken against excessive carbon emissions incur expenses associated with transitioning away from high-carbon industries; yet under certain conditions, these initiatives become economically advantageous.
Economic theory suggests imposing fees based upon each tonne’s worth of emitted CO_2—known colloquially amongst economists as “Pigouvian Taxes”—to internalize externalities imposed onto society through unregulated polluting practices. By doing so, governments incentivize businesses & individuals alike into adopting greener alternatives voluntarily since continuing unabated will prove increasingly costly long-term compared to cleaner options available now thanks largely due to technological advancements made possible partly because public funding directed towards R&D during past decades paid off handsomely recently!
However, critics argue implementing such schemes risks causing significant job losses within traditionally heavy-pollution sectors unless accompanied by adequate retraining programs designed specifically around helping workers transition smoothly across different fields without experiencing undue hardship financially speaking – something many nations struggle achieving effectively despite best intentions otherwise! Furthermore, there exists legitimate fears regarding potential relocation overseas among multinational corporations seeking cheaper operating environments devoid stringent regulations altogether thus undermining domestic efforts considerably overall...

In translation , Realia ( plural noun ) are words and expressions for culture-specific material elements . The word realia comes from medieval Latin , in which it originally meant `` the real things '' , i.e. material things , as opposed to abstract ones . The Bulgarian translators Vlahov and Florin , who were the first to carry out an in-depth study of realia , coined the modern sense of the word . They indicate that since realia carry a very local overtone , they often pose a challenge for translation . Realia must not be confused with terminology : the latter is primarily used in the scientific literature to designate things that pertain to the scientific sphere , and usually only appears in other kinds of texts to serve a very specific stylistic purpose . Realia , on the other hand , are born in popular culture , and are increasingly found in very diverse kinds of texts . Fiction , in particular , is fond of realia for the exotic touch they bring .

Reap the whirlwind is a term derived from the proverbial phrase , `` They that sow the wind , shall reap the whirlwind '' , which in turn comes from the Book of Hosea in the Hebrew Bible ( Hosea 8-7 ) .

The United Kingdom is committed to legally binding greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets of 34 % by 2020 and 80 % by 2050 , compared to 1990 levels , as set out in the Climate Change Act 2008 . DECC ( 2008 ) . Climate Change Act . Decarbonisation of electricity generation will form a major part of this reduction and is essential before other sectors of the economy can be successfully decarbonised.DECC ( 2011a ) . Planning Our Electric Future : A White Paper for Secure , Affordable and Low-Carbon Electricity .   The Government 's proposals for electricity market reform , published in a White Paper in July 2011 , included three initiatives to encourage decarbonisation of electricity generation in the UK : A Carbon Price Floor to complement the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme ( EU ETS ) ; Feed-in tariffs which will eventually replace the Renewables Obligation ; and an Emissions Performance Standard to restrict future use of the most carbon intensive forms of generation .   In implementing these proposals , the Government aims to attract investment in low-carbon generation , deliver security of supply through an appropriate mix of electricity sources and ensure a minimum amount of impact on consumer bills ; all this at a time when security of supply is threatened by scheduled closures of existing plants and both the demand for , and subsequently the price of , electricity is increasing .

Labour power ( in German : Arbeitskraft ; in French : force de travail ) is a crucial concept used by Karl Marx in his critique of capitalist political economy . Marx distinguished between the capacity to do work , labour power , from the physical act of working , labour . Labour power exists in any kind of society , but on what terms it is traded or combined with means of production to produce goods and services has historically varied greatly .   Under capitalism , according to Marx , the productive powers of labour appear as the creative power of capital . Indeed , `` labour power at work '' becomes a component of capital , it functions as working capital . Work becomes just work , workers become an abstract labour force , and the control over work becomes mainly a management prerogative .

differnce between return to factor and economies of scale  In economics , returns to scale and economies of scale are related but different terms that describe what happens as the scale of production increases in the long run , when all input levels including physical capital usage are variable ( chosen by the firm ) . The term returns to scale arises in the context of a firm 's production function . It explains the behavior of the rate of increase in output ( production ) relative to the associated increase in the inputs ( the factors of production ) in the long run . In the long run all factors of production are variable and subject to change due to a given increase in size ( scale ) . While economies of scale show the effect of an increased output level on unit costs , returns to scale focus only on the relation between input and output quantities .   The laws of returns to scale are a set of three interrelated and sequential laws :  Law of Increasing Returns to Scale ,  Law of Constant Returns to Scale ,  and Law of Diminishing returns to Scale .  If output increases by that same proportional change as all inputs change then there are constant returns to scale ( CRS ) . If output increases by less than that proportional change in inputs , there are decreasing returns to scale ( DRS ) . If output increases by more than that proportional change in inputs , there are increasing returns to scale ( IRS ) . A firm 's production function could exhibit different types of returns to scale in different ranges of output . Typically , there could be increasing returns at relatively low output levels , decreasing returns at relatively high output levels , and constant returns at one output level between those ranges .   In mainstream microeconomics , the returns to scale faced by a firm are purely technologically imposed and are not influenced by economic decisions or by market conditions ( i.e. , conclusions about returns to scale are derived from the specific mathematical structure of the production function in isolation ) .

Reputation management refers to the influencing and controlling of an individual 's or group 's reputation . Originally a public relations term , the growth of the internet and social media , along with reputation management companies , have made search results a core part of an individual 's or group 's reputation . Online reputation management , sometimes abbreviated as ORM , focuses on the management of product and service search website results . Ethical grey areas include mug shot removal sites , astroturfing review sites , censoring negative complaints , and using search engine optimization tactics to influence results .   With extensive developments in this field of public relations , in-sync with the growth of the internet and social media , along with the advent of reputation management companies , the overall out-look of search results has become an integral part of what defines `` reputation '' and subsequent to all these developments , reputation management now exists under two spheres : online and off-line reputation management .   Online reputation management , sometimes abbreviated as ORM , focuses on the management of product and service search results within the digital space . A variety of electronic markets and online communities like e-Bay , Amazon and Alibaba have ORM systems built in , and using effective control nodes these can minimize the threat and protect systems from possible misuses and abuses by malicious nodes in decentralized overlay networks .   Whereas , off-line reputation management refers to the process of managing public perception of a said entity out-side the digital sphere using select clearly defined controls and measures towards a desired result ideally representing what stake-holders think and feel about that entity . Wherein , the most popular controls for off-line reputation management include social responsibility , media visibility , press releases in print media and sponsorship amongst related tools .

Data envelopment analysis ( DEA ) is a nonparametric method in operations research and economics for the estimation of production frontiers . It is used to empirically measure productive efficiency of decision making units ( or DMUs ) . Although DEA has a strong link to production theory in economics , the tool is also used for benchmarking in operations management , where a set of measures is selected to benchmark the performance of manufacturing and service operations . In the circumstance of benchmarking , the efficient DMUs , as defined by DEA , may not necessarily form a `` production frontier '' , but rather lead to a `` best-practice frontier '' ( Cook , Tone and Zhu , 2014 ) . DEA is referred to as `` balanced benchmarking '' by Sherman and Zhu ( 2013 ) . Non-parametric approaches have the benefit of not assuming a particular functional form/shape for the frontier , however they do not provide a general relationship ( equation ) relating output and input . There are also parametric approaches which are used for the estimation of production frontiers ( see Lovell & Schmidt 1988 for an early survey ) . These require that the shape of the frontier be guessed beforehand by specifying a particular function relating output to input . One can also combine the relative strengths from each of these approaches in a hybrid method ( Tofallis , 2001 ) where the frontier units are first identified by DEA and then a smooth surface is fitted to these . This allows a best-practice relationship between multiple outputs and multiple inputs to be estimated .   `` The framework has been adapted from multi-input , multi-output production functions and applied in many industries . DEA develops a function whose form is determined by the most efficient producers . This method differs from the Ordinary Least Squares ( OLS ) statistical technique that bases comparisons relative to an average producer . Like Stochastic Frontier Analysis ( SFA ) , DEA identifies a `` frontier '' which are characterized as an extreme point method that assumes that if a firm can produce a certain level of output utilizing specific input levels , another firm of equal scale should be capable of doing the same . The most efficient producers can form a ` composite producer ' , allowing the computation of an efficient solution for every level of input or output . Where there is no actual corresponding firm , ` virtual producers ' are identified to make comparisons '' ( Berg 2010 ) .   Attempts to synthesize DEA and SFA , improving upon their drawbacks , were also made in the literature , via proposing various versions of non-parametric SFA and Stochastic DEA .

In finance , delta neutral describes a portfolio of related financial securities , in which the portfolio value remains unchanged when small changes occur in the value of the underlying security . Such a portfolio typically contains options and their corresponding underlying securities such that positive and negative delta components offset , resulting in the portfolio 's value being relatively insensitive to changes in the value of the underlying security .   A related term , delta hedging is the process of setting or keeping the delta of a portfolio as close to zero as possible . In practice , maintaining a zero delta is very complex because there are risks associated with re-hedging on large movements in the underlying stock 's price , and research indicates portfolios tend to have lower cash flows if re-hedged too frequently .

Regulation is an abstract concept of management of complex systems according to a set of rules and trends . In systems theory , these types of rules exist in various fields of biology and society , but the term has slightly different meanings according to context . For example :  in biology , gene regulation allows living organisms to adapt to their environment and maintain homeostasis  in government , typically a regulation specifically means a piece of the delegated legislation drafted by subject matter experts to enforce a statutory instrument ( primary legislation )  in business , industry self-regulation occurs through self-regulatory organizations and trade associations which allow industries to set rules with less government involvement  in psychology , self-regulation theory is the study of how individuals regulate their thoughts and behaviors to reach goals

Regulatory capture is a form of government failure that occurs when a regulatory agency , created to act in the public interest , instead advances the commercial or political concerns of special interest groups that dominate the industry or sector it is charged with regulating . When regulatory capture occurs , the interests of firms or political groups are prioritized over the interests of the public , leading to a net loss to society as a whole . Government agencies suffering regulatory capture are called `` captured agencies '' .
