100,000 People Who Are Changing the Worlds Environment and Access to Energy
Governments are facilitators but the real improvements in the world environment and the increasing access to clean electricity are achieved by corporations and associations. Within these entities, it is individuals who are responsible for progress.
One hundred thousand of these individuals are identified in three McIlvaine networking directories. These individuals are employed by corporations, associations and governments. They include the senior management as well as the research and project engineers. They include the specifiers as well as the purchasers at the companies operating energy and environmental equipment.
The biggest contributions are being made by individuals in developed countries who are providing their expertise to build the energy and environmental infrastructure in the developing countries. One of the most important contributions toward the information transfer has been the globalization of the energy and environmental industries.
Two of the world’s largest power generation equipment companies now have more Chinese nationals in their employ than citizens of any other country. The world’s largest supplier of air pollution monitoring equipment has its main research facility in China.
The major international drug companies are also setting up large research centers in China and India. The foundation of the globalization is that trust and loyalty of workers will be constant regardless of nationality.
Globalization results in higher revenues resulting from innovations. This provides a more attractive return on investment for research and development activities.
The information flow is bi-directional. With the large number of engineers graduating each year in Asian countries, there will be increasing value in the innovations coming from this region. Already environmental and energy products developed in Asia are competing in the world market. One Chinese environmental company has committed 30 percent of its engineering efforts to R&D. In most Western countries the average is 1 percent.
The three networking directories are:

GDP UPDATE EXCERPTS
August/September 2013
AMERICAS
ASIA
EUROPE / AFRICA / MIDDLE EAST
AMERICAS - United States
The U.S. economy grew at an annual rate of 1.7% in the second quarter of this year, better than most economists had expected but still showing tepid economic growth. .
Before the Commerce Department's report of the first look at the country's output of goods and services, many economists forecasted growth of 1% from April to June. A second quarter estimate based on more complete data will be released Aug. 29.
This is the third consecutive quarter of GDP growth below 2%, which is usually too slow to bring down unemployment. There are expectations that the economy will pick up steam in the second half of the year. (The remaining text is not included in this sample.)
Japan's economic growth will slow to 1.0% in fiscal 2014/15, less than half the pace expected this year, as a planned sales tax hike weighs temporarily on consumption, government forecasts showed.
In fiscal 2013/14, which began in April, Japan's economy is forecast to expand 2.8% as an improving labor market bolsters consumer spending and as policies to end 15 years of deflation start to take hold, the cabinet office said.
That is an upgrade from the government's previous forecast of 2.5% growth. . (The remaining text is not included in this sample.)
EUROPE / AFRICA / MIDDLE EAST - Czech Republic
Consulting firm Ernst & Young (E&Y) has downgraded its estimate of Czech GDP development and in its latest forecast expects an increase of 1.0% this year, while in March it had expected a decrease of 0.5%.
According to E&Y, a revival of the Czech economy can be expected next year, when GDP should rise by 2.2%.
Subsequently, GDP growth should accelerate up to 3.0% in 2016.
"Loosening of austerity measures will depend on further political development. Next year, the Czech economy should grow again mainly thanks to exports. For the years 2015 and 2016 we expect a growth of around 3.0%. The Czech economy could maintain this pace in the remaining years of this decade," partner Jan Fanta, a leading partner of corporate consulting and risk management of E&Y in CR, said. (The remaining text is not included in this sample.)
