Around the world, a lot of gulfs are in what The National Oceanic and  Atmospheric Administration classifies as one of 64 Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs) based on ecological factors, not human ownership or political  divisions. Collectively, LMEs account for about 80% of the ocean wild  fish catch, most of our [...]]]></description>

The opening chapter of the book, Compression, could only  reference a few reasons why Compression appears necessary. The main  objective, of course, is to drastically reduce consumption of resources.  Almost any problem of the 21st century can be alleviated by simply  processing and consuming less stuff. But why?
The case [...]]]></description>

Nigeria’s muddle is more like the muddle we all face in Compression  than the oil spill in the Gulf. Nigeria sits on a lot of oil, sweet  crude preferred by American refineries. About 40% of Nigerian oil  exports go to the the U.S., and it accounts for about 10% of [...]]]></description>

First off, no amount of money will restore the Gulf to what it was. We can only pay for partial remediation, and even [...]]]></description>

For instance, population has now leveled off  in Japan and many [...]]]></description>

Fumbling in the dark, we grab a flashlight to “expand our light  cone.” In a car at night, we hit the high beam for the same reason. And  if infrared night vision is an option, a driver can indirectly expand  her light cone using another wavelength of radiation. Anything warm [...]]]></description>

Worrywart’s are beating endocrine  disruptor drums louder and louder.
In very small  concentrations these are known to adversely affect glandular functions  and chemical balances in animals. Accumulating evidence suggests that  endocrine disruption may seriously affect humans, for instance, by  cutting sperm counts. Well-known effects on animals like frogs were [...]]]></description>

Sustainability is a big umbrella term addressing a host of issues.  Many writers emphasize only a few aspects of sustaining the planet in  condition to support life, but the scope of concerns is so broad that  it’s difficult – or impossible — to think about them all at once.
Consequently, an [...]]]></description>

A recent Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) party-pooper  report estimated that 63% of all methane and 36% of all nitrous  oxide (N2O) in the atmosphere is man-made. Despite  imprecision, these suggest pushing nature out of balance. The National  Academy of Sciences just released a report on how to deal  [...]]]></description>

In a recent speech, Dick Schonberger packed a PowerPoint slide with a  list of techniques associated with lean operations, a looooong list, in  fine print. That’s why organizations that regard lean as a collection  of techniques can never master them; nobody lives long enough. And if  management “runs the [...]]]></description>
