Energy conservation and emission reduction still need strong policies

"Strong and targeted policy measures is to stimulate change in the basis. This action is imperative, not delay, if the delay on a decade or two that will cause difficult to reverse the crisis."
Excessive carbon dioxide emissions on global warming caused the fatal dangers of Governments to noisy news we seem to have heard out of the calluses.
 
Because this is not imminent disaster, the daily life of people has not been too much alarmed, and the so-called low-carbon life, the attitude is more of a show. This is sad but helpless thing.
In the 1970s, many parts of the world, extreme weather, especially drought in the Sahel region of Africa in 1973, causing millions of people lost their lives. Sixth United Nations General Assembly in 1974 requested the World Meteorological Organization, which thus on climate change research. This is the first public discussion of human climate warming.
Over the past 35 years, after various negotiations, the establishment of various organizations, develop plans, to the December 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, it should be said that the countries responsible for carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases have caused global warming and should take measures to avoid worsening the situation reached a consensus.

Ford vice President Jim Farley: how to win reputation

Although Fox did in March this year, 50 million units off the assembly line ceremony, but Ford's market share in China is still a far cry from its global position. And general compared to the Ford product line in China is not only thin, but the coverage is very narrow.
For this problem, responsible for Ford Motor's group vice president of marketing Jim ? Farley (Jim Farley) do not feel is inferior. North American auto market has experienced ups and downs, the Ford Motor for the group's "One Ford" philosophy, with more in-depth understanding and implementation. They feel that this oneness brings competitive advantage to the product instead, which is the size and variety can not be brought.
 
April 23, 2010, the Pharisees accepted the "Automotive Business Review" interview, after which he live for dealers at the show did a product launch. Before the introduction of new products, which is part of his concern. He hoped that the whole process, consumers are sensitive to Ford's image. He said: "The customer is not just simply buy your product, he wants you to do this the company behind the product have a better relationship, he is not shaking hands and products, but shook hands and the company."

The car of the future is not afraid bump

According to the British "Economist" magazine recently reported that held recently in Spain, Valencia F1 Grand Prix had an astonishing scene: Mark Webber's car to the speed of 306 kilometers per hour when a serious rollover accident . Fortunately, Weber himself unscathed.
Weber's "last straw" is very popular in the current F1 racing carbon fiber base. Although iron and aluminum materials, the carbon fiber, "worth" more, but its resistance to stress, and portability is far superior to iron and aluminum. Currently, in many sophisticated areas can see the "nowhere", such as aircraft wings, super cars and expensive mountain biking.
Although carbon fiber has been "flying into the common car home" in many parts on the car, but if BMW's R & D success, then the body made from carbon fiber or electric vehicles will become mainstream.
Early July of this year, BMW announced its long-awaited electric car development program, plans to launch by 2013 plug-in electric vehicles Megacity. The new model does not come from the modification of existing models, but BMW's engineers hardships of a new attempt. The performance of the "no iron" four city car will be more portable, its consists of two parts: the transmission system and battery containing aluminum chassis and mounted on the chassis of carbon fiber cars "skeleton."
Carbon fiber 30% lighter than aluminum, 50% lighter than iron. Moreover, since carbon fiber has a strong tear resistance, when it is woven into the lattice-like structure, and then into the resin, its strength should be more than iron. However, this procedure requires a lot of labor and the efficiency is very low, therefore, the possibility of large-scale production of carbon fiber is not high. However, BMW is trying to change that.
