Sun Xiansheng, Secretary General, International Energy Forum (IEF) lobal energy security is a phrase we hear often, but what do we mean by it and why is it more relevant now than ever? In the past, the meaning centered around access to Genergy and fossil fuels. Today, energy security is more about adaptation. It is no secret that we currently find ourselves at a critical energy juncture. From challenging oil prices to the rise of renewable technology, global energy security has taken on a new meaning. Those states that adapt and transition to new energy realities are the ones most likely to succeed in the new energy era. Such adaptation can only occur through sustained global energy dialogue. The need for this dialogue underscores the importance of the 16th International Energy Forum Ministerial (IEF16) that India will host under the theme “The Future of Global Energy Security: Transition, Technology, Trade and Investment,” in New Delhi on 10-12 April 2018. Electric armoured police bus and 8-seater electric car Hainan, China. IEF16 will focus on how global shifts, energy transition policies and new technologies can influence landscape together.

Dialogue on how energy security has evolved sustainable and fair to all. will help producers and consumers navigate the energy The new energy realities Change and dynamism are at the heart of global energy trends, and the pace of change has become much more Growth of renewable energy power is estimated to be twice the pronounced in the last decade. Energy disruption, aggregated growth of gas and coal over the next five years geopolitical change and new market realities are transforming energy systems and the economics of energy on a global scale. Structural sectoral changes are shifting the energy mix towards lower carbon resources, driven by advancements in technology and accompanied by energy- saving measures and policies. An oversupplied oil market combined with burgeoning renewable technology and greater awareness of climate change are factors that continue to influence the global energy landscape. Energy transition and energy efficiency are not new phenomena, but rather, a culmination of years of progress in renewable technology that has made alternatives to fossil fuels a viable option. The exponential growth of renewables is a reality. According to the International Energy Agency, global renewable

  • ALL the QUEEN's AGENTS & CORPORATIONS the Queen's
    ALL THE QUEEN’S AGENTS & CORPORATIONS The Queen’s Prerogative English law prohibits questioning the Monarchy about their personal holdings and business. This is true of most of Europe’s royalty, whether enthroned or not. The wealth of the Monarchies is held outside of the countries that made the wealth. The British Crown’s offshore banks hold the greatest personal wealth in the world estimated at $35 trillion. Perhaps the British Crown still owns and controls its Commonwealth Nations, including the American “colonies.” Monarchies are not supposed to be warlord bankers who create conflict and chaos to turn a profit or destabilize an economy for personal gain. But they have been for some time now, and history is a string of immoral wars caused by monarchies, the Vatican and other religions. Untold millions have died while kings and popes lived on to grab the wealth through well-established institutions that were created to control the people of the Earth. The Commonwealth of Nations, headed by Queen Elizabeth II, is made up of 53 nations, spanning the globe, accounting for one-fifth of the land mass of the Earth, and a very high percentage of its strategic resources and population. The Queen is a Knight of Malta and has vowed allegiance to the Pope through the largest insider trading club on the planet. The British Crown Agents are, in fact, also agents of the Vatican’s Knights of Malta. The Queen is a Knight of Malta The Sovereign Military Order of Malta (SMOM) took control of the power and wealth of the Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon from within the Roman system.

    El día después de la guerra El Conflicto Malvinas-Falkland Jorge A. Aja Espil - José María Lladós PRIMERA PARTE Talleres en Maryland / Maryland’s Workshop (1983-1985) SEGUNDA PARTE Conferencia Argentino-Británica / Argentine-British Conference (ABC) (1990-2000) 1 PRIMERA PARTE Talleres en Maryland / Maryland’s Workshop (1983-1985) 1. La relación argentino-británica: entre la cooperación y el conflicto El 2 de abril de 1982 la opinión mundial descubría, no sin asombro, la existencia de unas ignotas islas del Atlántico Sur reconquistadas por fuerzas militares argentinas. Último resabio y reducto de un colonialismo al que el Reino Unido parecía mantenerse fiel, la escaramuza marcaba un hito en el antiguo pleito que databa de 1833, cuando fuerzas británicas usurpaban manu militari unas islas que la Argentina, ya independiente, poseía de pleno derecho. Este episodio, sin embargo fue sólo parte de una relación mucho más amplia en el que el componente conflictivo había tenido relativamente escasa importancia. A pesar del dilatado período de cooperación que las dos naciones protagonizaron durante los siglos XIX y XX, y del precedente que constituyeron los reiterados reclamos argentinos en defensa de su integridad territorial, no hubo de encontrarse, sin embargo, un eco favorable para la solución del conflicto. Paradójicamente, ni en aquel contexto auspicioso de intercambio, ni en el seno de la gran corriente descolonizadora promovida por las Naciones Unidas después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. No obstante, cabe recordar que el Reino Unido no se desprendió a lo largo de este proceso de los enclaves y pasos estratégicos que poseía a lo largo del globo.
