Customize Your Keyboard Mapping Intended For Windows MeWindows 98Windows 95 Windows lets you change the keyboard mapping to suit your particular language.

Hazardous waste management is a global issue. The international waste trade emerged as a problem for the international community in the late 1970s and early 1980s. High disposal costs and more stringent regulations in some countries, lower transportation costs, and the rise of freer trade facilitated shipments of hazardous wastes across national borders for disposal elsewhere. Available data on waste transfers are rarely exact. It is, however, commonly accepted that about 10% of the 300-500 million tons of hazardous wastes generated annually worldwide is shipped abroad. Of this, roughly 80% is shipped between rich industrialized nations, members of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Far more controversially, significant quantities of wastes from the world’s richer nations have been shipped to countries in Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean and, increasingly, to East Central Europe. Several well-publicized cases of waste ships in the late 1980s—such as the Khian Sea, which left nearly 4,000 tons of toxic ash from Philadelphia on the beaches of Haiti—led the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) to sponsor the Basel Convention, signed in 1989 and instituted in May 1992.

nstead of extermination the more scientific solution is Animal Birth Control and Anti-Rabies which involves: • Catching stray dogs of an area and segregating the animals. • Only diseased dogs are humanely destroyed. • The remaining healthy and friendly dogs are sterilized and immunized against rabies and returned to their respective areas where they live out the rest of their natural lives helping the community.
