Interview with the late Herman Kahn, the man who pretty much invented forecasting How China's economic growth can help the world's environment Nothing Romantic about environmentalists The great nineteenth-century English poets waxed lyrical about nature, but they still believed in humanity - unlike today’s eco-pessimists Eco-imperialism is alive and well in the West The West's pleading with China to cut carbon emissions bursts with ulterior motives Are global consumer brands a force for good? Panel speeches and discussion at the Royal Society of Arts, with SAB Miller, Interbrand, Coca-Cola and brand guru Stan Slap Race to be green saps creative energy The energy conservation fad is symptomatic of IT leaders’ narrowing ambition The Electric Car Conspiracy... that never was What a hit movie really tells us about innovation Instead of a dispassionate approach, the BBC gives us dumbed-down moral absolutes, far-out footage, and a sprinkling of "balance" Why greens don’t want to ‘solve’ climate change Environmentalists are cagey about techno-fixes to climate change because berating mankind for its impact on nature is their raison d'être Like it or not, coal is vital to Asia’s growth Those calling on China and India to ‘kick the coal habit’, and opt for less sooty forms of energy, overlook the vast benefits of coal use for those nations. It’s official: the masses are not gullible A new British government survey suggests that lots of us have an agnostic or atheist attitude to the cult of environmentalism Three cheers for China’s ‘economic miracle’ Ignore the Yellow Peril view of Chinese economic growth as dirty and dangerous. There are good reasons to welcome China’s leaps forward Is the Red Dragon a green threat? Ignore the scaremongering of environmentalist writers and thinkers: China should be free to develop as it wishes Will an e-waste crisis be made in China? In the world of IT, both energy use and e-waste look set to gain an Eastern aspect With three new tracts on planning, energy and waste, the government reveals a greater desire to modify our behaviour than to conduct technological innovation |
