Kimbell J: Electric Vehicles in the USA.
Economic Benefits and Environmental Imp

Electric Vehicles in the USA. Economic Benefits and Environmental Impact

Climate tech is critical for averting planetary chaos. Half the greenhouse gas reductions required to reach “net-zero” climate targets in 2050 will need to come from technologies that have not yet been invented. Without effective government interventions, market incentives alone will not produce a rapid transition to a low-carbon economy. The commercial value of innovative climate technology, especially in its early phases, remains underpriced—far below its social value. The good news is that smart policies can change these dynamics and catalyze the necessary creativity and investment in clean technology, and its deployment. The key question is: which approaches can lead us to future carbon neutrality, and which are likely to fall short? In Making Climate Tech Work, environmental policy expert Alon Tal demystifies climate innovation programs around the world—no policy background needed. Beginning with a review of government’s general role in technology policy development, Tal assesses each policy alternative, describing eye-opening experiments in diverse countries, presenting a range of case studies, interviewing leading decarbonization experts, and interpreting new empirical data. Discover how Germany incentivized renewables; Denmark became a wind energy superpower; Australia phased out incandescent bulbs; California’s prisons pioneered low-carbon menus; and why carbon taxes have failed around the world—but could be designed for success. Tal distills the benefits and drawbacks of each policy, along with related ethical questions and public perceptions. He concludes by addressing two commonly overlooked issues in climate policy: disruption of workers’ livelihoods from the clean energy transition; and integrating the Global South into the planet’s new low-carbon economy—as the region that has contributed least to climate change but which must be part of a global solution. Tal not only evaluates which policy strategies effectively reduce emissions but also how they can promote climate tech innovation. Humanity is ultimately in a race against time and effective climate policies are critical to ensure a sustainable future. Making Climate Tech Work serves as an essential primer for policymakers, academics, activists, and anyone interested in climate solutions.

Policies That Drive Innovation

Making Climate Tech Work

RSA Series in Transdisciplinary Rhetoric

An investigation into one of the largest and most lucrative mineral mining companies in the world, Rio Tinto, Extraction Politics reveals how the company constructs a presence in the places it operates and shapes meanings and orientations toward the environment.
Taking readers on a "rhetorical pilgrimage" across the American Southwest, Nicholas Paliewicz shows how Rio Tinto creates adaptable corporate identities. From Ronald Reagan's frontiersman advertisements for the Borax Mine in California to the pioneer Mormon persona at Bingham Canyon Mine in Salt Lake City and the folksy, paternalistic perspective toward the San Carlos Apache at the proposed mine at Oak Flat, Arizona, the company appropriates local history to embed itself as a valued member of the public--without having to settle in those ecological communities and bear the costs of extraction. This does not occur without resistance, however. Paliewicz also shows how activists use these same tactics to expose Rio Tinto as an exploitative, colonialist polluter.
In an era of surging demand for dwindling supplies of minerals and metals, this book previews what the future of extractivism may look like. Extraction Politics will appeal to scholars and students of environmental communication and activist politics as well as general readers interested in the climate crisis.

Rio Tinto and the Corporate Persona

Extraction Politics

The integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors has become imperative for businesses and investors alike in navigating the complexities of sustainable development. By prioritizing ESG, companies encourage skill development in areas like environmental management, ethical leadership, and stakeholder engagement. This approach not only enhances long-term resilience and profitability but also equips employees with the competencies needed to address complex global challenges. Ultimately, ESG-focused capacity building enables businesses to create shared value, contributing to both economic growth and a more sustainable, equitable future. Implementing ESG Frameworks Through Capacity Building and Skill Development provides a comprehensive exploration of ESG frameworks, their implementation, challenges, and future directions. It explores the intersection of ESG frameworks, capacity building, and skill development, highlighting their interconnectedness and the pivotal role they play in fostering sustainable development and corporate responsibility. Covering topics such as capacity building, human resource management, and sustainable development goals (SDGs), this book is an excellent resource for academicians, researchers, policymakers, practitioners, business leaders, investors, scholars, graduate and postgraduate students, and more.

Implementing ESG Frameworks Through Capacity Building and Skill Development

Case Study from the year 2023 in the subject Business economics - Market research, grade: A, , language: English, abstract: This study aims to conduct an empirical review of the economic and environmental implications of electric vehicles in the US to depict a balanced view of the outcome of the technology. As EV demand grows due to technological progress and consequent emphasis on climate change solutions, the role of these vehicles in recasting parts of the American economy and environment has to be discussed. This paper aims to determine the amount of money that can be saved through the use of EVs by comparing the fuel costs of EVs to conventional ICE vehicles. These savings can lead to more disposable income so households can spend money on other aspects of the economy. The paper focuses on how the change from a reliance on gasoline to electricity can decrease the countries' reliance on oil importation. This shift has profound geo-political consequences and can act as a force for improving national energy security and economic resilience. In particular, the study aims to establish new employment opportunities created by the EV value network extending from manufacturing to transport infrastructure development. This includes manufacturing of batteries, assembling cars, maintenance of cars, and even setting up charging stations and their maintenance.

The study also concerns the environmental impact of the extensive use of EVs. Thus, by comparing emissions data in the study, the study seeks to illustrate that EVs produce fewer CO2 and other greenhouse gas emissions than ICE vehicles. This reduction is essential to achieve national and international climate targets and goals. Exploring the effects of EVs on air quality, the paper focuses on the effect on NOx emissions and PM emissions. This is a crucial benefit because high atmospheric pollution levels are detrimental to human health, especially in crowded regions.

No pre-pandemic strategy is effective anymore. None. Not for organizations large or small, for-profit or non-profit, domestic or global. Claims of a "return to normal" or "the new normal" are ridiculous. What we're facing is really a "new reality," and that reality is the need for agile strategic decisions and pragmatic views of the future. That means that strategy formulation can be reduced to a few days and the view of the future can only be 12-18 months. This is the antithesis of Peter Drucker's approach to strategy, but his highly effective approach was developed at GM three quarters of a century ago. It's time to move on.



Alan Weiss has developed an original and completely new approach to strategy which thus far has certified over 100 people globally, delivering this approach to scores of firms of all types in four countries. More than two dozen firms are using this approach.



Sentient Strategy is based on two modern dimensions: awareness of the environment in which the organization exists and has influence, and consciousness of the impact of actions being considered. The old SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats) approaches are currently equivalent to riding down the freeway on a horse. We must drop the hubris that has led us to believe we can see years ahead and anticipate what's coming. No one predicted the Internet No one predicted the latest pandemic.



It's time to turn volatility and disruption on their heads and use them as offensive weapons in the marketplace instead of trying to protect ourselves from them. Imagine a strategy that an organization can formulate in just a day or so, revisit easily and frequently, and design a series of shorter-term, viable futures. "Sentient" means "perceptive" and "self-aware." It doesn't mean "one size fits all" from a cookie-cutter firm's approach to strategy.



Alan Weiss equips the reader to consider using this approach independently. These are new times-a new reality, a "no normal¿"-hence, it's ridiculous to use old approaches to strategy. There's a clear reason why Sears didn't morph into Amazon and why Hertz surrendered its number one spot to Enterprise.

Alan Weiss equips the reader to consider using this approach independently. These are new times -- new reality, a “no normal" -- hence, it’s ridiculous to use old approaches to strategy.

A sweeping portrait of the EV transformation and what it means for all of us.The question is no longer if electric vehicles will happen, or even when they'll happen, but how. Veteran automotive reporter Mike Colias takes you inside the transformation in this thoroughly reported profile of the hard pivot in the car business, a $2 trillion industry undergoing the biggest change in its 120-year history--a change that is already sending ripples across the entire global economy.Colias documents the inevitable shift from pistons to electrons from every angle, taking you inside the boardrooms where executives battle over their EV strategies to take on Tesla and, more recently, emerging Chinese powerhouses such as BYD. He brings you to family-run car dealerships deciding if they'll sell EVs--or sell their businesses. He follows entrepreneurs along lonely stretches of road that will soon need charging stations. He talks to power-train engineers whose skills were once the beating heart of the automotive industry but who now find themselves being replaced by coders.This is an epic exploration that stretches from Detroit to Japan to Germany to China, and from factories in Normal, Illinois, and Haywood County, Tennessee, to a burgeoning mining operation along the shores of California's briny, lithium-rich Salton Sea.Inevitable is a deeply enjoyable and smart book that uses masterful storytelling to capture the expanse and dynamism of the transition to electric vehicles in profound detail, bringing to life its seismic effects on everything and everyone.
