  • Can Cities Sustain Life in the Greenhouse

    Open AccessJohn Byrne, Kristen Hughes et al.ARTICLEBulletin of Science Technology &…2006

    Data from the Global Environmental Monitoring System indicate that pollutants such as sulphur dioxide and total suspended particulate routinely appear in the lower atmosphere of major cities at concentrations well above health guidelines set by the World Health Organization. As well, cities are major contributors to the build-up of greenhouse gases which now threaten climate change. These findings underscore the detrimental relation that has evol…

  • Less Energy, a Better Economy, and a Sustainable South Korea

    Open AccessYoung-Doo Wang, Young‐Doo Wang et al.ARTICLEBulletin of Science Technology &…2002

    An energy efficiency scenario (Joint Institute for a Sustainable Energy and Environmental Future) demonstrates that an energy future built on the use of cost-effective, high-efficiency technologies is clearly within the grasp of South Korea and would justify a nuclear power moratorium with significantly lower carbon dioxide emissions. This is a promising result, especially because applications of other sustainable energy options, such as renewabl…

  • The Postmodern Greenhouse

    Open AccessJohn Byrne, Leigh Glover et al.ARTICLEBulletin of Science Technology &…2001

    Climate change presents a fundamental challenge to the current global energy regime. Under the Framework Convention on Climate Change, the international community is developing the architecture of a policy response. Three serious flaws are examined: (a) the potential sacrifice of small island states, (b) the use of market-based policy measures to commodify the atmospheric commons, and (c) the substitution of carbon sequestration for meaningful re…

    Sustainable urban development strategies for China considers the transition that needs to be made in China to achieve sustainable urban development. After outlining the links between economic growth and energy use, a conceptual framework is developed to contrast the major economic, technological, energy and environmental assumptions between conventional and sustainable development strategies. Using five of China's cities (Beijing, Guangzhou, Shan…

  • The Tax Equity Effects of the Substitution of Municipal Electric Profits for Property Taxes

    Marvin R Brams, James Taylor et al.ARTICLEJournal of Urban Affairs1983

    Many municipalities own and operate the electric companies which service their population, or act as distributors of electricity which they purchase from privately owned electric companies. Municipalities will often sell electricity at a substantial profit which is credited to their General Fund and becomes a substitute for properly taxes. A case study of a Delaware municipality that follows this practice was examined to determine the impact of t…
