Geospatial Intelligence for National Security, Energy and the Environment
Newswise — The power of geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) enables the fusing together of various sources of information -- including satellite-gleaned data -- allowing users to make more informed decisions at a faster pace.
Secure World Foundation is pleased to announce the availability of the Fall 2011 issue of Imaging Notes magazine, dedicated to Earth remote sensing for security, energy and the environment.
“This issue includes a section dedicated to GEOINT in which we discuss two of the hottest trends for geospatial intelligence: human terrain analysis and the U.S. National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency’s intended adoption of open source software,” said Myrna James Yoo, publisher and managing editor of Imaging Notes .
Environmental law meets real estate law | REM - Real Estate ...
By Shari Elliott
There is no excuse today for real estate agents to not be aware that the environmental status of properties needs to be addressed in the purchase agreement. By becoming aware of the issues, sales reps can avoid unexpected environmental issues.
Environmental liability is applied to a wide range of actors, not just the polluter. There are methods to investigate and if required remediate the contamination. The level of due diligence required varies with the nature and use of the property, both past and future.
In Ontario, the primary tool is an environmental site assessment (ESA) for this investigation. This starts with what is referred to as a Phase I – mainly a paper search to determine actual and potential site contamination both on and off-site. A Phase I usually takes two to three weeks and costs approximately $2,000 to $3,500.
A Phase II is considered an intrusive investigation to assess potential or known impacts to the soil and groundwater. Usually boreholes and monitoring wells are installed. Samples are taken and analysed at a laboratory. The cost varies with each project. There are many activities that are inherently high risk to cause contamination. A short list would include chemical plants, battery manufacturing, recycling facilities, asphalt manufacturing, electroplating, metal fabrication, circuit board manufacturing, steel works, leather tanneries, ship building, repair yards, textile mills, drycleaners, scrap yards, service stations and properties with underground storage tanks....
When the Color of Unemployment Is Green — The American ...
Arguing that environmental regulations are job destroyers, Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry recently asserted that Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations on power plant emissions were responsible for the loss of 500 jobs at Texas power generator Luminant. However, on MSNBC, Representative Ed Markey (D-Massachusetts) said “environmental regulations create more jobs.” Perry’s disagreement with Markey raises an important question for policy makers: At a time of high unemployment, should we relax environmental regulations to enhance job creation?
This question runs up against the philosophy of the Obama administration, which argues that we should promote environmental regulations now because they will create green jobs in the future. As the White House website says , "The transition to clean energy has the potential to … create millions of jobs.” For instance, the administration contends that regulations on greenhouse gas emissions will ultimately stimulate job creation in alternative energy as businesses shift their activities in response to the regulations. In his New York Times blog, Paul Krugman explains the logic: "Tighter ozone regulation would actually have created jobs: it would have forced firms to spend on upgrading or replacing equipment, helping to boost demand.”
