  • Climate Change: Debate and Reality
    CLIMATE CHANGE: DEBATE AND REALITY DANIEL R. HEADRICK Roosevelt University Abstract The debate about climate change has been raging for over 30 years. Is the climate really changing? If it is, are the changes caused by human actions? If they are, can anything be done about it? And, if so, should anything be done? On each of these questions, opinions clash. On one side are those who would say yes to all four questions. Among them are almost all climate scientists, most of the world’s governments and a large part of the educated public. On the other side are the current United States Government, most oil, gas and coal corporations, and most conservative politicians and their supporters, especially in the United States. It cannot be denied that the debate has caused confusion in the mind of the public—at least in the United States—and has helped prevent effective measures to mitigate global warming. In this essay, however, I argue that the impact of the debate pales in comparison to that of two other factors: developmentalism, the glorification of economic growth; and consumerism, the modern energy-intensive way of life. While the causes of the failure to mitigate global warming can be found in every country, the case of China is particularly glaring. Keywords: China, climate change, developmentalism, US Government Climate change: The evidence Among climate scientists, there is an almost complete consensus on the anthropogenic causes of global warming. All 928 articles on the subject published in refereed scientific journals between 1993 and 2003 agree on this point, as do the reports of the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the National Academy of Science, the American Meteorological Society, the American Geophysical Union and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

Bifulco Copyright © 2017 Miaomiao Liu and Yongsheng Chen. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. We developed a real-time crash risk prediction model for urban expressways in China in this study. About two-year crash data and their matching traffic sensor data from the Beijing section of Jingha expressway were utilized for this research. The traffic data insix 5-minute intervals between 0 and 30 minutes prior to crash occurrence was extracted, respectively. To obtain the appropriate data training period, the data (in each 5-minute interval) during six different periods was collected as training data, respectively, and the crash risk value under different data conditions was defined. Then we proposed a new real-time crash risk prediction model using decision tree method and adaptive neural network fuzzy inference system (ANFIS). By comparing several real-time crash risk prediction methods, it was found that our proposed method had higher precision than others.

  • China at the Gates: a New Power Audit of Eu-China Relations
    CHINA AT THE GATES: A NEW POWER AUDIT OF EU-CHINA RELATIONS François Godement & Abigaël Vasselier ABOUT ECFR The European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR) is the first pan-European think-tank. Launched in October 2007, its objective is to conduct research and promote informed debate across Europe on the development of coherent, effective and values- based European foreign policy. ECFR has developed a strategy with three distinctive elements that define its activities: • A pan-European Council. ECFR has brought together a distinguished Council of over two hundred Members - politicians, decision makers, thinkers and business people from the EU’s member states and candidate countries - which meets once a year as a full body. Through geographical and thematic task forces, members provide ECFR staff with advice and feedback on policy ideas and help with ECFR’s activities within their own countries. The Council is chaired by Carl Bildt, Emma Bonino and Mabel van Oranje. • A physical presence in the main EU member states. ECFR, uniquely among European think-tanks, has offices in Berlin, London, Madrid, Paris, Rome, Sofia and Warsaw. Our offices are platforms for research, debate, advocacy and communications. • Developing contagious ideas that get people talking. ECFR has brought together a team of distinguished researchers and practitioners from all over Europe to carry out innovative research and policy development projects with a pan-European focus. ECFR produces original research; publishes policy reports; hosts private meetings, public debates, and “friends of ECFR” gatherings in EU capitals; and reaches out to strategic media outlets. ECFR is a registered charity funded by the Open Society Foundations and other generous foundations, individuals and corporate entities.
