It is likely to exacerbate the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. The region contains seven out of the world’s ten most vulnerable countries and the economic impacts could be huge. Asian Development Bank (ADB) studies forecast that under a business-as-usual scenario, annual economic losses could be as high as 5.3% in East Asia or as much as 12.7% in the Pacific by 2100. On the average, economic costs of disasters in Asia and the Pacific region could reach $53.8 billion annually. In 2013, developing Asia accounted for 35% of energy-related global carbon dioxide emissions and continues to rise, further aggravating the region’s vulnerability. Against this background, ADB is strengthening its commitment to assisting its developing member countries (DMCs) in meeting the climate change challenge. In its recent Midterm Review of Strategy 2020, which guides all of ADB’s work, climate change was identified as one of ten strategic priorities. As such, ADB is, inter alia, enhancing its focus on climate change adaptation, mainstreaming resilience and integrating adaptation and disaster risk reduction measures into all its activities, including operations and country policies. ADB has already mandated climate risk management in all its projects. Last year, ADB provided $3.27 billion for climate finance, $988 million of which was for adaptation initiatives. Although finance is imperative in addressing climate change effectively, technological solutions will also play a key role. Acknowledging the importance of technology, ADB’s Regional and Sustainable Development Department, under the technical assistance on Enhancing Knowledge on Climate Technology and Financing Mechanism funded by the Government of Japan, has compiled this compendium to help DMCs identify technologies that would help them address the impacts of climate change. The available and innovative technologies that are detailed here address the climate change impacts in six sectors: agriculture, coastal resources, human health, transportation, water resources, and disaster risk management. The document includes information on the effectiveness, cost, benefits, and barriers abouteach technology. Disseminating this very timely information is the first step in recognizing that technologies are already available today to promote green growth and, more importantly, to enable adaptation to a changing climate. Sound and sustainable technological choices enhance resilience and facilitate adaptive behavior and development. I hope this document will provide a useful reference for ADB’s DMCs. Ma. Carmela D.

  • Creole Technologies and Global Histories: Rethinking How Things Travel in Space and Time
    Creole technologies and global histories: rethinking how things travel in space and time By David Edgerton* The Uruguayan writer Eduardo Galeano once wrote: ‘la diosa tecnología no habla español’ [the Goddess Techno- logy does not speak Spanish].1 Indeed historians of techno- logy in many parts of the world are told the equivalent. Most of us, it is claimed, don’t speak technology; don’t have technology to speak of.2 As I have argued elsewhere, in order to be able to write a history of technology which is both global and historical, and which engages directly with more * Imperial College London. I am most grateful to participants at the Lisbon workshop on “The Circulation of Science and Technology: Places Travels and Landscapes” for their comments, as well as to Waqar Zaidi, anonymous referees, Tiago Saraiva, and especially to Eric Schatzberg. 1 Eduardo Galeano, Las Venas abiertas de America Latina (Buenos Aires/México, D. F.: Siglo XXI, 1978), first published 1971, p. 381. 2 This point has been made to me by many colleagues from around the world, and also by an American historian of technology, Pauline Kusiak, who noted that in Senegal, the Senegalese were astonished to find her studying ‘technology’ in their country. HoST, 2007, 1: 75-112 HoST , Vol.1, Summer 2007 than a tiny minority of white males, we need to break the unfortunate association, indeed conflation, that exists between invention and innovation on the one hand, and technology on the other. 3 In this paper, which draws on a chapter in a forthcoming book, I focus on twentieth-century horse transport in the rich world, and explore the new technologies of the poor world, and especially of its megacities.4 By looking at these cases I show the continued vitality of what is taken to be a technology of previous centuries, and demonstrate how its twentieth growth and survival cannot be understood as persistence.

    MANAGEMENT OF TECHNOLOGY CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION Presentation By Dr. Robert Finkelstein Collegiate Professor [email protected] Based On: Customized Management of Technology by Tarek Khalil (With Additional Information By R. Finkelstein) TECHNOLOGY: A DEFINITION Technology: The totality of the means employed to provide objects necessary for human sustenance and comfort Consists of products and processes Encompasses technical and managerial knowledge which is embodied in physical and human capital and is published and transmitted in various ways Ignored as a key production factor (like land, labor, and capital) until recently Can be ascribed to tool-using non- human organisms or entities as well (e.g., chimpanzees or aliens from the planet Glarfnex) TECHNOLOGY: MOST IMPORTANT The most important technological artifact in human history was among the first – the flint cutting tool used by Homo habilis (c. 2,500,000 BCE) These essential tools allowed relatively puny humans (who were more scavengers than hunters) to rapidly cut, detach, and carry away meat from carcasses before more formidable predators and scavengers arrived Allowed tiny numbers of humans to survive High-protein diet allowed larger brain to evolve EARLIEST TECHNOLOGY 2,600,000 BCE: oldest known stone tools (sharp-edged flakes, flake fragments, and cores), Ethiopia 1,000,000 BCE: hand axes replace simpler chopping tools, Africa 460,000 BCE: earliest known use of fire, China (although hominids may have learned to control fire more than 1,000,000 BCE) 380,000
