  • HISTORY of WESTERN OIL SHALE HISTORY of WESTERN OIL SHALE
    / _... i';C4 - SHELF , Historyof Western Oil Shale Paul L. Russell . " The Center for Professional Advancement Paul Russell received his degree from the University of Arizona. After working for Industry for five years, he began his involvement with oil shale in 1948 when he joined the U.S. Bureau of Mines and was assigned to Rifle, Colorado, to work at Anvil Points. During the middle fifties, he was assigned to the Atomic Energy Com­ mission to study the extraction of ura­ nium from the Chattanooga Shales in Tennessee. He became Research Director of the U.S. Bureau ofMines in 1967 and served in this capacity until he retired in 1979. During these years his involvement with oil shale intensified. Currently, he is an engineering consultant. ISBN: 0-86563-000-3 ,._-------_._.. V.D.ALLRED 6016 SOUTH BANNOCK LI7TLETON. COLO. 80120 ....~ ...........~..... This compelling history spans 65 years of western oil shale development from its begin­ ning to the present day. These were the years in which most of the present-day retorting pro­ cesses were invented and devel­ oped,leading to present studies of in-situ retorting, and to the resumption of leasing of fed­ eral oil shale lands. The many excellent illustra­ tions and contemporary photo­ graphs in themselves provide a pictorial record of an era when the United States was "wild over oil"-an era when Gov­ ernment estimates of billions of barrels of oil in western oil shales were used to advan­ tage for questionable-if not fraudulent-stock promotions designed to raise capital for development, or to fatten the promoters' pockets.

  • Is Apparel Manufacturing Coming Home? Nearshoring, Automation, and Sustainability – Establishing a Demand-Focused Apparel Value Chain
    Is apparel manufacturing coming home? Nearshoring, automation, and sustainability – establishing a demand-focused apparel value chain McKinsey Apparel, Fashion & Luxury Group October 2018 Authored by: Johanna Andersson Achim Berg Saskia Hedrich Patricio Ibanez Jonatan Janmark Karl-Hendrik Magnus 2 Is apparel manufacturing coming home? Table of Contents Introduction 4 Is apparel manufacturing coming home? 6 Era of change 6 Nearshoring breakeven 10 Overcoming challenges in nearshoring 12 The prospect of automation 15 Promising automation technologies 15 Economic viability of automation 18 How quickly can the prospect become reality? 21 The automation journey 23 Embarking on the journey 24 Defining the future sourcing and production strategy 24 Developing new skills and changing mindsets 26 Building a new ecosystem of partnerships 27 Taking the first step 28 Table of Contents 3 Introduction Tomorrow’s successful apparel companies will be those that take the lead to enhance the apparel value chain on two fronts: nearshoring and automation. It cannot be just one of them and it must be done sustainably. Apparel companies can no longer conduct business as usual and expect to thrive. Due to the Internet and stagnation in key markets, competition is fiercer than ever and consumer demand is more difficult to predict. Mass-market apparel brands and retailers are competing with pure-play online start-ups, the most successful of which can replicate trendy styles and get them to customers within weeks. Furthermore, apparel companies have lost much of their clout in trendsetting. In most mass-market categories, today’s hottest trends are determined by individual influencers and consumers rather than by the marketing departments of fashion companies.

BOX 11000, 00076 AALTO www.aalto.fi Master of Arts thesis abstract ! Author Heli Salomaa Title of thesis Video Games and Costume Art - digitalizing analogue methods of costume design Department Department of Film, Television and Scenography Year 2018 Number of pages 100 Language English Degree programme Master's Degree Programme in Design for Theatre, Film and Television, Major in Costume Design Abstract This thesis explores ways of integrating a costume professional to the character art team in the game industry. The research suggests, that integrating costume knowledge into the character design pipeline increases the storytelling value of the characters and provides tools for the narrative. The exploration of integrating a costume professional into game character creation as a process is still rare and little information of costume in games and experiences in transferring an analogue character building skillset into a digital one can be found, therefore this research was generated to provide knowledge on the subject. The research's main emphasis is on immersion-driven AAA-games that employ 3D-graphics and human characters and are either photorealistic or represent stylized realism. Technology for depicting reality is advancing and digital industries have become aware of the extensive skills required to depict increasingly realistic worlds.

  • Fashion & Environment
    WHITE PAPER Fashion & Environment AN OVERVIEW OF FASHION’S ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT & OPPORTUNITIES FOR ACTION Contents 01 ABSTRACT PAGE 4 Impacts and opportunities. 02 FOREWORD PAGE 6 From BFC and DHL 03 INTRODUCTION PAGE 10 The rise of the global fashion industry. 04 THE GLOBAL AGENDA PAGE 15 The Sustainable Development Goals. 05 SIGNALS OF CHANGE PAGE 19 Exploring pathways to sustainability. 06 WHAT NEXT? PAGE 37 Recommendations for the industry. 07 APPENDIX PAGE 52 Additional context and references. 3 Abstract The global fashion industry has a far-reaching impact on the natural environment, from the extraction of raw materials to the production, distribution, wear and disposal of clothes. As the world’s population increases to a projected 8.5 billion people by 2030, annual global apparel consumption could rise by 63%, from 62 million tonnes today to 102 million tonnes—equivalent to more than 500 billion additional T-shirts1. The current fashion system is unsustainable, our biggest risk is to carry on as we currently operate. There is scientific consensus that we are in times of climate and ecological emergency as set out in the UN commissioned Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5° and Global Assessment Report on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services. For the fashion industry to have a response commensurate with global environmental challenges, it will require a systems level change and development of a new fashion system based in a sustainability paradigm. Bringing about this change is complex given the global nature of the industry and its many different parts. However, a transformation of the fashion industry, addressing its environmental impacts, has been signalled and these approaches and innovations need to be scaled outwards and upwards.

Nusairat 2 and Ra’ed Masa’deh 3 1 E-Marketing and Social Media Department, Princess Sumaya University for Technology (PSUT), Amman 11941, Jordan; [email protected] (A.A.); [email protected] (Y.M.) 2 Marketing Department, Applied Science Private University (ASU), Amman 11941, Jordan; [email protected] 3 Management Information Systems Department, The University of Jordan, Amman 11941, Jordan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 27 August 2020; Accepted: 1 October 2020; Published: 9 October 2020 Abstract: Environmental pollution from garment manufacturing is a major concern due to its widely-felt impact on climate change. Consequently, the researchers set about assessing KAP (Knowledge, Attitude and Practice) and its relationship with, and impact on, green fashion innovation adoption among Jordanian companies. This work examined the relationship between the independent variables, represented by KAP, and the dependent variable, which was Green Fashion Innovation Adoption in Jordan. A quantitative approach utilized a cross-sectional survey to gather primary data from upper and middle-level management in Jordanian garment companies. The sample size was 257 valid questionnaires. The results showed a statistically significant impact of knowledge and attitude toward green fashion innovation adoption, but failed to identify a statistically significant impact of practice on the same. This research contributes positively to the diffusion of awareness about going green in innovative methods and systems in Jordan’s garment industry, and provides suggestions to practitioners.
