Brazil focuses on domestic demand - Wire Trade Fair in Germany - 1 views

  • According to EIU experts, important factors for the current weak growth are the now almost stagnating service and industry sectors. These sectors together yield more than 90% of the Brazilian gross domestic product. Most of all, exports are flagging, which is mostly due to the bad economic situation on the major sales markets, i.e. Europe, China and the USA. Add to this the largest decline in agricultural production since 2005 caused by bad weather in the first quarter of 2012.

40 years of Shell Global Scenarios - Food-Water-Energy - 0 views

  • The number of people on our planet is rising. By 2050 we will be 9 billion, and 75% of us will live in cities. Our demands will place increased pressure on supplies of energy, water and food. The relationship between these resources seems simple: water is needed to produce most forms of energy; energy is required to treat and transport water, and food production relies on water and energy. It is, however, more complex. Shell is using scenarios to help explore the future dynamics of these vital resources.

Car-making will drive innovation in aluminum - 0 views

  • Auto manufacturers have ambitious sustainability targets in addition to the desire to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. They want to know they are sourcing the most sustainable products for today’s green consumer. This means that the aluminium industry must, for example, learn how to increase the recycled content in automotive alloys to help car companies meet their own recycling objectives. Buying-back the offcuts from the automakers’ sheet metal stamping process is one key way of closing the recycling loop.
