Convergence in cross country per capita carbon emission rates is an important concept in the climate change debate. This paper provides an empirical analysis of emissions per capita convergence. This analysis is crucial to the assessment of projection models that generate convergence in emission per capita rates and to the assessment of policy proposals that advocate imposing convergence in emi...

During the past century, fossil fuels--petroleum liquids, natural gas and coal--were the dominant source of world energy production. From 1950 to 2005, fossil fuels provided 85-93% of all energy production. All fossil fuels grew substantially during this period, their combined growth exceeding the increase in world population. This growth, however, was irregular, providing for rapidly growing p...

Renewable energy is an important topic in China as the country experiences increased wealth and energy demand. Historically, hydropower has been a valuable source of renewable energy production in China, and will continue to be as the Chinese increase hydroelectric facilities by 2020. Using provincial level data from 1980-2010, this paper estimates the relationship between the percentage of hyd...

Porunar, Pulavar, Panar, Koudhar, Patini, Varaviyar are known as Iravalars (beggers). They called because they earn their living by singing. In songs, praise the rich people and gift, get gifts, money so on. The also go in search of Iravalars, love to hear songs them. Sangha literary texts speaks abundantly extensively about how income singing others.

This study sets out to verify the key predictors of the dynamics of the arable production per capita index, the arable production and permanent crop land and forest area at a national scale in Cameroon. To achieve this objective, data for twelve time series data variables spanning the period 1961-2000 were collected from Oxford University, the United Nations Development program, the World Bank,...
