Extractions: CONESQUENCES: Volume 1, Number 3 by Jesse H. Ausubel David G. Victor , and ... Iddo K. Wernik In the minds of many, 1970 marked the beginning of the modern environmental movement, symbolized by the first observance of "Earth Day" in the spring of that year. In the ensuing quarter century we have built personal computers and engineered genes. We have ended the Cold War, the Berlin Wall and apartheid in South Africa. And we have felt deepening environmental concern, punctuated by drought in the Sahel, accidents in Bhopal and Chernobyl, and spilt oil in France, Ireland, and Alaska. The data on which we rely are mostly collected by national governments. They are compiled periodically in reports of the U.S. government, United Nations organizations, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the World Resources Institute, and other groups. The most important of the sources are identified at the end of the article. Population Energy use Total commercial energy consumption grew at the same rate as population, from the equivalent of a little over five billion tons of oil in 1970 to just under eight each year today. Thus, global per capita commercial energy consumption has remained roughly constant. Per capita commercial energy consumption in low-income countries more than doubled. Still, absolute consumption remains concentrated in the wealthy industrialized nations, where 15 percent of the world's population consume over half the energy used.

Useful Links SPARC-related activities in Argentina These continued with only a few modifications with respect to the previous report (see Newsletter 4). The highlight is the construction and operation of a portable aerosol lidar by CITEFA (Instituto de Investigaciones de las Fuerzas Armadas). The lidar has been successfully tested and operated outside Buenos Aires. At the same time, in cooperation with France, an ozone lidar is currently being built. An informal meeting of scientific groups involved in SPARC-related activities was held in December 1995 in the Universidad de Buenos Aires. The Servicio Meteorologico Nacional (SMN), jointly with the province of Tierra del Fuego, continues the operation of the GAW station near Ushuaia. Also, a column NO sensor measurements here as well as at Marambio St. Other activities such as the NSF-CONICET high resolution spectrophotometer at Ushuaia and the national UV-monitoring network, with 5 GUV-511 continue normal operations.

Extractions: The 1990s was the warmest decade in recorded history(19,67,78,83,84), with 1997 and 1998 the warmest in recorded history and each month of 1998 setting all time highs(79). 2000 and 2001 were also among the warmest years in history(84,94), with 2001 being the 2 nd warmest ever and 1 degree Celsius more than the 1961-1990 average. The global average temperature has increased about 1 degree Celsius since 1880, and 0.3 degrees Celsius since 1975(29,16,36, 40,41,42,49,90). An even greater warming is seen in global average minimum temperatures which have increased by 0.8 degrees Celsius since 1950(77). There is strong evidence that this warming trend is due to the greenhouse effect related to a buildup of carbon dioxide and similar greenhouse chemicals related to manmade increases in fossil fuel emissions and atmospheric release of other chemicals(16,84). A dramatic warming of ground surface temperatures has occurred in areas such as the North slope of Alaska and areas of Canada(38,49). Stanford University researchers recently concluded in the journal Science, that the breakup of river ice on the Tanana River is occurring an average of 5.5 days earlier in recent years than it did in 1917(93).

The following compilation of Internet/WWW sites is intended to be an introductory guide to some of the map and reference resources available via the World Wide Web. Consider using one of the WWW search engines if you are looking for a specific type of map or reference. The maps which are listed here have been selected because they are thought to be reasonably useful and/or interesting. They are categorized by geographical region although there are a couple of thematic categories such as Interactive Maps which both highlights the potential of the WWW and are also fun to use. Note that there is some overlap in geographic coverage between these categories. The emphasis is on displayable maps (e.g. images) rather than digital cartographic (GIS) and satellite data which can be found in the separate compilation Geodata Information Sources . There is also another listing which includes Weather Maps and Imagery This list has been compiled for use by faculty members and students of the Center for Global and Regional Environmental Research . Suggested additions and corrections to this list are welcome and can be sent to the CGRER webmaster Note: These various Internet links may not be accessible at all times.
