CNBC's Rick Santelli captures the frustration of many in this country when he called for the "Chicago Tea Party" in July against the new administration's mortgage plans, stimulus plans, and bailouts. Santelli's call spurred many across this country to organize their own "Tea Party" to voice concerns about the way the economic crisis is being handled. The FINZ.tv street team took our cameras to the "NYC Tea Party" at City Hall Park, New York, for interviews and to get a sense of the mood away from the trading desk.

http://www.americanprogress.org/issues/2009/03/swords_ploughshares.html While there have been many studies on the best military approaches to take in the Afghanistan conflict, there have been comparatively few efforts to examine how the United States and its allies should best use their foreign assistance resources to achieve success. The Sustainable Security Program at the Center for American Progress commissioned an innovative scenario exercise to test how much “bang for the buck” the U.S. government could achieve in stabilization and reconstruction operations if it undertook many of the foreign assistance reforms advocated in previous CAP reports. Over the course of three days, we learned that robust foreign assistance reform should be seen as a key national security priority. Dr. Reuben Brigety and Dr. Patrick Cronin discuss this new approach to sustainable security in Afghanistan.

http://www.americanprogress.org/projects/sustainable_security/index.html Merely reacting to global crises is a costly strategy in terms of both human lives and direct financial costs. In order to get out ahead and prepare itself to face the challenges of the 21st century, the United States should: 1. Fully integrate prevention into the national strategies that guide foreign policy formulation and implementation. 2. Build an integrated, interagency mechanism for long-range strategic planning that is tied directly to the allocation of resources. 3. Organize the government to support prevention and ensure coherence across the executive branch. 4. Invest intelligence, diplomatic, and economic resources in the most vulnerable areas and regions. 5. Re-engage with the international community, and improve and then support international treaties and norms. 6. Develop new tools and capabilities for crisis management. 7.

Power Expert Explains How a Smart Grid Can Help Consumers Save Money, Clean Up the Environment and Create More Jobs President Obama has been talking about the need for a smart grid to help keep America sustainable and competitive and in fact, the current proposed economic stimulus package includes $54 billion for renewable energy, energy efficiency and smart grid projects. What exactly does that all mean and how will it affect your area? A smart grid delivers electricity from suppliers to consumers using digital technology to save energy and cost. Our current grid resembles a huge network of electrical roads and highways – some are high speed, with electrical traffic covering far distances and others covering shorter distances moving at a slower pace. For this grid to work efficiently, electrical traffic needs to be kept at a steady, consistent pace throughout the grid. Too much “traffic” at one particular time can cause jams or bottlenecks in the system. Because ...

Berlin / Delhi – The first rail car of a brand new metro fleet for Delhi, India has touched down in the Indian capital on February 26, 2009. The inaugural BOMBARDIER MOVIA metro vehicle, the first of a 424-car fleet being built by Bombardier for customer Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Ltd. (DMRC), travelled to its new home aboard an Antonov An-124 cargo plane. The MOVIA fleet will play a vital role in increasing sustainable mobility for India’s capital and will transport an impressive 4 million passengers every day. The rail car, weighing a hefty 45 tons, left Bombardier’s production site in Görlitz, Germany. It was taken by special road transportation to Parchim airport, Germany, where it was loaded onto the Antonov. The 22.5 meter long and 3.2 meter wide metro car was received with celebrations and high media interest in Delhi. The first 36 vehicles for DMRC will be built in Goerlitz, Germany and the following 388 cars in Savli, India, where Bombardier has recently inaugurated a modern railway vehicle manufacturing facility.

What better way to propel yourself across the Greenland ice cap using a sustainable source of energy: wind. By using kites it’s possible to reach speeds of over 60 km/h (over 35 mph), while towing a heavy sled with food and equipment behind you. The only downside is that if you fall - by itself being a rather uncomfortable experience at those speeds - it’s quite likely you will be run over by the sled, since it has no brakes. Enjoy the ride!

The UK Government has launched a new initiative to make the clothes fashion industry less damaging to the environment. The idea includes better labour practices and more recycling and sustainable schemes across the whole of the fashion sector.

Driven to Sustain is a campaign that promotes sustainable living and global environmental awareness.  The mission is to visit successful sustainable initiatives throughout North America, meet environmentally-minded people, and share knowledge with people of all ages.  Tyson and Cloe are meeting experts in climate change, environmental education, global warming, and the "green" movement.  The couple are driven, themselves, by engaging students with alternatives and giving presentations about what they've seen and learned along their way.  The students are always excited to see the van that Tyson and Cloe call home.
