Knowledge can be tested, climate change identified, stock markets analysed and the very origins of the universe probed.
… The draft 2050 plan makes no mention of climate change mitigation or targets for reducing the impacts of climate change, identified as the greatest threat to the reef in both the 2009 and 2014 Great Barrier Reef outlook reports.
A 2013 United Nations report on food security and climate change identified conventional, high-input, mono-crop agriculture as a "key driver of and major victim of global warming".
He boldly suggested that the reason for sub-par growth over the last 10 years is a fundamental structural change, identified as "secular stagnation": the natural, or equilibrium, real (inflation-adjusted) interest rate may have fallen below zero – perhaps as low as negative 2-32-3%"forever".
The use of underground drains and septic tanks represents a major behaviour change identified and compounds an already difficult task to control A. aegypti populations.
This paper presents an approach to developing scenario narratives constructed against key drivers of change identified through a social ecological systems analysis.
The work developed for the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment was taken as an inspiration for the study: the interrelations between ecosystem services and human wellbeing were analyzed and spatial development scenarios were obtained, thanks to the drivers of change identified.
A random stratified sample design was used for assessing the change detection accuracy, with 250 pixels selected within areas of persistent land cover and 250 pixels selected within areas of change identified by the CCDC algorithm.
The present study examined whether in people with affective disorders motives for adopting and maintaining physical activity recommendations (as formulated by the self-determination theory) differed across the stages of behaviour change (identified by the transtheoretical model).
c Non-contrast CT brain of the same patient as in a and b performed 2 days later, demonstrating severe generalised hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy with symmetrical subacute low attenuation change identified in the basal ganglia at this level as well as evidence of significant cerebral oedema and swelling.
And yet the window for change identified -- five to ten years at most -- does not support a graduated approach to sustainability.
