NO SMALL TRIUMPH: THE OUTLOOK FOR ARGENTINA’S RENEWABLE ENERGY PROGRAMS Nicolas R. Oliver | International Immersion Program – Argentina I. INTRODUCTION Argentina is not a leading voice in the global conversation on climate change, but it is a significant one. Geographically, Argentina has tremendous renewable energy potential, primarily in the areas of wind, hydroelectric, and biomass generation.1 And despite its developing country status, Argentina has passed ambitious laws to incentivize renewable energy utilization in the electricity and transportations sectors.2 Public concern over anthropogenic climate change in Argentina is also higher than in most other countries,3 likely due to the intense desertification, water scarcity, and glacial melt effects that 3.5–4ºC of warming would wreak on parts the country.4 Argentina should be a paradigmatic example of the type of country that the success of the Paris Climate Agreement depends upon—but so far, it isn’t.

  • Las Vegas and Houston: Global Command Centers in the Sun Belt
    Las Vegas and Houston: Global Command Centers in the Sun Belt Bo J. Bernhard, Ph.D. Mikael Ahlgren, Ph.D. (candidate) Abstract Apart from their notoriously hot summers, Las Vegas, Nevada and Houston, Texas appear to have little in common. Upon further scrutiny, however, the two cities have followed strikingly parallel trajectories. As a hub of commercial gaming today, Las Vegas faces challenges comparable to the obstacles Houston encountered in the 1970s and 1980s as a hub of oil and energy. The story of Houston since this downtime reflects a stunning transformation into a modern-day international city, and one that both parallels and portends a new Las Vegas. In this article, we argue that Houston provides a viable model for Las Vegas as a “global command center” of a major international industry – and that in many ways Las Vegas is already following this path.1 Introduction Today, Las Vegas faces a seemingly endless pummeling of bad-news developments, and a local and national media all too eager to pounce upon them. First and perhaps most obviously, Sin City and its core gaming industry have found themselves firmly entrenched in the “Great Recession.” In 2010, Las Vegas gaming revenues were at approximately 81% of their peak levels -- reached just three years earlier – and unemployment in the city hit highs unseen by any metropolis in the U.S., including Detroit2. Worse, international competitors have appeared at a stunning and lucrative rate, and gaming revenues in Macao and now Singapore dwarf those of the “gambling capital of the world.” On a more local front, residents have started to abandon ship: Las Vegas’ 9% annual population growth rates in the decade of the 1990s are a distant memory, and growth actually turned negative for the first time in 20083.
