A Look at Yadier Molina’s Potential Free Agency Negotiations

Yadier Molina has made a name for himself in St. Louis during his time with the Cardinals. As the only player in Major League Baseball to have played for the same team since 2004, it is a bit difficult to imagine him wearing a different uniform. However, as ESPN’s Marly Rivera reported earlier this year, Molina is now considering signing elsewhere if the Cardinals decide not to bring him back after 2020. June 2020 marked 20 years that Molina has spent in the Cardinals organization. After being drafted by the Cardinals in the 2000, he eventually became the everyday catcher in 2005. Before the 2008 season he signed a 4-year, $15.5 million extension with a club option for a 5th year in 2012. The winter before the option kicked in, he signed a 5-year, $75 million extension. Before the final year of that contract, he signed a 3-year $60 million extension, which will end after the 2020 season and potentially make him a free agent for the first time in his career.

Molina’s numbers are not at the same level as they were earlier in his career, with his 1.2 WAR ranking 27th and his 87 wRC+ ranking 33rd among 68 catchers in 2019 (minimum 100 plate appearances). Behind the plate, his 8.9 Defensive Runs Above Average were the 16th highest among 61 catchers (minimum 100 innings). One thing that has remained consistent throughout his career is his availability. Despite missing about a month last July due to injury, his 113 games ranked 13th and his 939.1 innings ranked 7th for backstops. However, among catchers Molina is currently the active leader in WAR and the all-time leader in Defensive Runs Above Average, which is reflected in his current compensation.

Due to the shortened season, players will not be receiving their full 2020 salary, but if they were, Molina would be earning $20 million, making him the highest paid catcher this year, though Buster Posey would be ahead of him had Posey not opted out. The free agent market has not been very lucrative for catchers since Molina signed his extension prior to the 2017 season. The only catcher to sign a free agent contract that is larger than Molina’s current $60 million deal is Yasmani Grandal, who signed with the Chicago White Sox for 4 years, $73 million after the 2019 season. In fact, Grandal is the only catcher since to sign for more per year than Molina’s $20 million guaranteed. Molina’s extension came after a 3.5 WAR season in 2016 during his age 33/34 season. To compare, Grandal reached free agency after his age 29 season when he put up 4.7 WAR in 2018, his 4th straight season with over 4 WAR. He ultimately could not surpass Molina’s AAV in a single season deal, signing a 1-year, $18.25 million contract with the Milwaukee Brewers. It is worth noting that there was some discussion about Grandal’s poor postseason performance the year prior, but it seems as though Molina would have had a difficult time getting his $20 million AAV from another team had he elected to test free agency. This may be true again this contract year.

As you can probably imagine, there are not many examples of 38-year-old catchers seeking multi-year deals, but there have been some veterans who were in similar situations in recent years. One example is Brian McCann, who was coming off of a down year in his age 34 season with a 81 wRC+, 1.1 Defensive Runs Above Average, and 0.1 WAR. He signed a 1-year $2 million contract with the Atlanta Braves. Another is Robinson Chirinos, who had a 113 wRC+, 2.7 Defensive Runs Above Average, and 2.3 WAR in his age 34/35 season before signing a 1-year $6.75 million contract with a club option with the Texas Rangers. Chris Iannetta was coming off one of the best years of his career in his age 34 season with a 120 wRC+, 6.8 Defensive Runs Above Average, and 2.3 WAR and signed a 2-year $8.5 million contract with the Colorado Rockies. Kurt Suzuki signed a 2-year, $10 million contract with the Washington Nationals after a 108 wRC+, -5.7 Defensive Runs Above Average, and 1.0 WAR age 34 season. Lastly, Jeff Mathis had a 48 wRC+, 18.6 Defensive Runs Above Average, and 0.9 WAR age 35 season before signing a 2-year $6.25 million contract with the Texas Rangers. Of these players, the only one who played in more than 90 games with their new team was Iannetta, who played 110 the first season and 52 the next. Chirinos has yet to play a season with the Rangers.

The bottom line is Molina’s first priority is likely starting as many games as possible. It seems improbable that he would earn more as a free agent than he would if the Cardinals negotiate an extension with him in the next few months due to catchers not being particularly favorable in the eye of the market. Molina’s reputation may help his negotiations and increase the bidding to upwards of $10 million for 2 years, but the main factor that will probably determine whether he stays in St. Louis or goes elsewhere will be if the Cardinals are willing to commit to him as their everyday catcher for another 2 seasons.

From a review of Lend Me Your Ear:
"From the outset of her investigation into the rhetoric surrounding deafness and deaf people, Brenda Jo Brueggemann cites the educator Quintilian's ideal of the vir bonus dicendi peritus, the good man speaking well. She highlights the equal importance in this model of the person being good and the "problems" that deafness poses for a culture that wonders how a deaf person can be taught to be good if he or she cannot "hear the wisdom of the ages." In Lend Me Your Ear she assesses the consequences of this age-old attitude that has resulted in a myriad of ongoing rhetorical constructions that are inextricably linked to the concept of speaking well and the following presumptions that denigrate deaf people." gupress.gallaudet.edu/BJBcompliments.html

Disability and Society (journal)
Disability & Society is an international journal providing a focus for debate about such issues as human rights, discrimination, definitions, policy and practices. It appears against a background of change in the ways in which disability is viewed and managed. Definitions of disability are more readily acknowledged to be relative; custodial approaches are seen as inadequate and unacceptable - placing greater emphasis on community care and integration. However, policy intentions may not have the desired effects on the realities of everyday practice and policy changes themselves may be merely cosmetic, or appropriate but unfounded. While publishing articles that represent all the professional perspectives, the journal also provides an opportunity for the consumers of the services to speak for themselves.

God's Pocket, British Columbia, Part III. The Trouble with Crabs.

[ Follow Ups ] [ Post Followup ] [ California Scuba Diving BBS ] [ FAQ ]

Posted by Merry on October 04, 2016 at 10:29:25:

I do have a real problem with the crabs in British Columbia. The problem is that they're positively captivating with their unique adaptations and fascinating, always-busy behavior. So, I'd gladly spend the entire dive trying to shoot as many of them as possible, even to the exclusion of other animals. I reined myself in on this trip.

77-418 Product Reviews

"I always keep this thing in mind that who seeks, and will not take, when once it is offered, shall never find it more. And one day find that ten years have got behind, and no one told when to run. But pass4sure was there to tell me how to run this race to make sure my success in 77-418 exam. This program was an outstanding program that would like to make my ideas and concepts clear and prepared me for the outstanding results in 77-418 exam. I tried to accept this offer of pass4sure to make myself proud and successful."

You Just Designed For Me:

"If I do not know where I was going than I will end up someplace else. Some times I thought that every ceiling, when reached, becomes a floor, upon which one walks as a matter of course and prescriptive right. I tried to obtain my victory by exerting at the last moment on pass4sure, but with more vigorous efforts than before and tried to fulfill my design to clear my 77-418 exam by obtaining brilliant position in the 77-418 exam, on the contrary some people give up their designs when they have almost reached the goal."

Cleared It:

"While i was trying to create a history in my 77-418 exam,I thought that I won't have to be afraid of the future after passing it.Although your cert dumps helped me me to reach the mile stone and did my learning for the 77-418 exam but Doks-Kyivcity's presence in my triumph brought an added excitement to the management, of my low cost 77-418 exam preparation.I do not criticize the other web available tools but i think you are the best option i ever found for a quick recovery for people like me."

Given A Solution To My Problems:

"Most of the fear that spoils our life comes from attacking difficulties before we get to them. That's why imagination is more important knowledge because he, who has imagination without learning, has wings and no feet.

We are currently in an exceptional situation due to the spread of the coronavirus. We must stay home until the state of alarm ends. This change that directly affects our routine and habits, as well as the uncertainty that exists, increases the feeling of stress and anxiety. All this leads to a greater sedentary lifestyle, more inactivity, and a less healthy diet.

Therefore, in order not to gain weight during quarantine, especially if you are in a process of weight loss, staying active is the key.

When spending so much time at home, it is necessary to try to stay active in order to avoid, in addition to weight gain, all the problems derived from sedentary lifestyle, as well as to keep busy during confinement.

Lack of movement can lead to muscle atrophy, back pain, etc. These are things that can be avoided by creating a daily exercise routine. There are many options for exercising at home, and it does not have to be high intensity, simply by walking we are already mobilizing the whole body.

In addition, we must not only remain active, but exercise must be combined with a good diet. In a situation like this, it is easy to fall into an increase in foods rich in sugars and carbohydrates, and a healthy diet is essential to overcome this crisis.

For this, just as we can plan the exercise routine, it is appropriate to plan the weekly menus and stick to them. It is also key that the diet is varied and healthy.

At the Laparoscopic Weight Loss Clinic in Vadodara, India, we recommend maintaining physical activity during quarantine so as not to gain weight and overcome the state of alarm with less stress.

One For All

Posted by Nishant Shah at Feb 17, 2013 02:00 PM |

The importance of making information accessible and universal.
One For All

Rahul Cherian worked at collectively harnessing the powers of the digital towards building a just.

Nishant Shah's column was published in the Indian Express on February 17, 2013.

In the late 1990s, when I was an undergraduate student studying English Literature, a professor asked me if I could volunteer to write exam papers for a student with visual impairment, Milind, who was one year my senior. It was my first encounter with a student with a visual challenge, and it changed my experience and understanding of education. I had always found comfort in the world of words and stories. When I first met Milind, I soon realised that he was being excluded from this world of reading and writing that I had taken for granted. With most of the prescribed textbooks not available in Braille and none of the reference material in libraries accessible, he was dependent on volunteers and disability support organisations to audio-record the texts so that he could access them. His library was made of audio-cassettes scratched from over-use, which did not offer him the options of re-visiting, annotating, and close-reading. And when I wrote the exams for him, writing as he dictated, I was left humbled and inspired by his strong commitment to educating himself. The phone call I received when he got his English Literature degree, and our celebratory dinner, remain one of my happiest memories as an undergraduate student.

That experience made me realise, for the first time the exclusivity of the world of books and print. While print and paper industries have helped democratise knowledge and provided us access to store and retrieve knowledge through ages and time, they are also technologies of exclusion. Reading has been so naturalised in our everyday life, that we have almost forgotten that it is a visual medium. A book is not easily accessible to people who do not have the privilege or capacity to be literate. A book can also exclude with jargon and dense languages, which are the stronghold of an elite few. And more than anything else, it stays, if you will excuse the pun, a closed book, to people with visual impairment.

Like many who might have encountered second-person disability, I have never done much to change our society. I might have done some volunteer work, or signed petitions for better infrastructure, but the interventions have been minimal and almost non-existent. I think about this today, because on February 7, 2013, one of the strongest and most powerful voices that has been fighting apathetic government systems, moribund policies and indifferent social attitudes towards visually challenged people, Rahul Cherian, died due to ill-health. Cherian, who was the co-founder of the Inclusive Planet Centre for Disability Law and Policy and a fellow at the Centre for Internet and Society, where I work, was a disability policy activist who realised the potential of the digital world, to make information and knowledge accessible to those who were previously discriminated against.

Cherian firmly believed that the digital interfaces would provide new access to information and knowledge to those who live with visual disability. If we implement global standards to ensure that the text on the internet can be read out loud by text-to-speech devices, we would have a new democratisation of information that allows people to engage with the Web. His spirit and enthusiasm was infectious as he resolutely worked at persuading technology developers and holding governments responsible for implementing accessibility protocols to make information in the digital age open.

He was committed to digitising printed resources in formats which allowed deeper engagement and manipulation of text through voice and keyboard-based controls. He fought against intellectual property right regimes which disallow books to be converted into formats that can be accessible to open source and free screen readers and text-to-speech engines. Cherian worked at collectively harnessing the powers of the digital towards building a just and inclusive society that made me recognise how deep-seated our blind spots are, when we look at the mainstream and the popular. His work made me understand that the battles for open knowledge and open access are not only economic in nature. That the digital book projects offer new inroads for those previously excluded, into the world of knowledge and information. I feel honoured to have shared conversations and working spaces with him, and know that his passing will leave a large hole, in the lives of those who knew him, as well as the political movement that demands better access for inclusion of people with disability.

Today, I want to take this moment of loss, to remind myself of something that sometimes gets forgotten — the digital technologies that we take for granted and often use just for fun, have a strong potential for social and political change. While it is great that the digital world has offered new spaces for content generation, information sharing, cultural production and social connection, it also has the potential to build safe, just and inclusive information societies. I don't know if we should buy into the rhetoric that the next global war is going to be around information, but we should remember that information is definitely worth fighting for and making accessible to all.

The bottom-line goal of Sales Skills Development is to grow revenue -

The bottom-line goal of Sales Skills Development is to grow revenue

That’s what selling is mostly all about. There are many ways to go about growing revenue and/or improving margins. When considering building capability of your sales team through a learning initiative, then here are some key tips to get the best outcomes of your sales learning initiatives, workshops or modular programmes to help grow revenue.

Before activating any sales skills development programme, the first step is to understand what you want to achieve. What is your goal? Make it a quantitative and qualitative in the areas you want to grow revenue and/or improve margins.

For example, are you going to achieve revenue growth by expanding your existing accounts, or bringing in more new clients, or increasing the average size of sale? Once you understand your goal and the details, you can determine which skills development solutions will lead you to your desired results. Don’t forget to add “mindset” as part of a change initiative and learning programme.

Here are five areas that could be your “focused objectives” when investing in developing your sales team and a programme. The areas below can be measured and a return on investment easily identified!

1. Growing current accounts: One of the most profitable ways to grow revenue is by selling more to existing accounts. It sounds obvious, but most companies don’t put an emphasis on this. In fact, research indicates 76 percent of companies believe they should be generating at least 25 percent more revenue from their key accounts. This represents a huge opportunity for most sales people. Organizations can turn these opportunities into account growth reality by obtaining the right knowledge, skills, tools, and action plans. Consider how many additional revenue opportunities are sitting within existing accounts that your sales team could be maximising.

Does your strategic plan and sales skills learning programme cater to maximising revenue opportunities within existing accounts or clients?

Action: Ask your sales team at your next meeting to think of one account and brainstorm where additional opportunities are. Think about market conditions in your industry, what are the current changes occuring in the markets that could impact change in your customers business and that might offer additional revenue opportunities in the medium to long term.

2. Increasing the size of opportunity: While growing your existing accounts can help boost your sales, there are other ways to do this as well. For instance, sales people can use more effective strategic questions during their discovery phase to uncover the buyers challenges and current problems.

When you have a clear understanding of a new client or customer opportunity you then need to be super-strong on building massive value around products or services you offer. Ensure your sales team have mastered the art of ” effective questioning” to uncover the broader set of needs/challenges, opportunities and then align with your solution offering.

Does your learning programme cater to mastering the art of asking “quality questions” to ensure “quality outcomes”?

3. Improving your win rate: Maybe you have a strong pipeline, but you’re not winning as often as you should. Perhaps your sales team are getting outsold by stiff competition or getting a “no-decision”. When talking to prospective clients, your sales team can increase sales by answering these questions in the context of the customer: why act, why now, why us, and why trust.

Action: Ask your sales team at your next meeting….. to reflect and brainstorm the four questions in the context of a prospective customer: Why act? Why now? Why us? Why trust us?

4. Bringing in new business: Although growing existing accounts is typically one strategic priority for sales leaders, bringing in new clients is equally important. Growth is achieved by bringing in new business. To win, your sales team must possess stellar prospecting and networking skills, know that they need to fill their pipeline with qualified leads, improve their discovery skills, and lead better sales conversations.

Does your learning programme develop skills that fill the pipeline with new prospects?

5. Negotiation skills: Are your sales people getting frustrated with constant knock backs on price? Are buyers spending too much time asking for discounts, better deals. Your sales team need to know how to negotiate when they’re pressured on price, delivery or service. The easy thing to do is to just give the buyer what they want and many sales teams do….. give in right? Sales people need to learn effective negotiation skills to ensure fair play so that each party create a win:win outcome.

Mastering negotiation skills is critical to sales success.

Within each of these areas are a number of skills your sales team need to continually develop and master, even those who have been in sales for a number of years. Client demands change, market trends change, political landscapes change, technology changes impact everyone and therefore your team need to be exposed to regular learning initiatives to refine and develop new approaches and thinking.

Ok so once you’ve established your goals for a particular training initiative, it’s time to decide how you’ll measure the program’s success.

Five Leading Indicators of Success

It’s also important to consider leading indicators of success. These measures indicate whether you’re on the right track with your learning initiative. Here are five indicators to monitor:

  1. Qualitative feedback: Get feed back about the training and observe changes in sales behaviour.
  2. Short to Medium term increase in activity: If the learning event itself isn’t relevant and tailored to the business and engaging it’s a good indicator that the initiative isn’t going to be successful. Results show up in the first 2 – 4 weeks of any learning initiative…. get a sense of this by spending time in the field with your team or monitoring metrics. Successful workshops aren’t the “magic pill” for behavioral change, a sales leader has to be involved to coach and provide feedback in field.

Why point 2 is important: over 75% of learning will be forgotten within 10 days

  1. Pipeline growth: The first indicator of success is pipeline changes. Whether it’s adding more new opportunities, larger opportunities, more opportunities with existing accounts, or decresed sales closing cycles, tracking changes in your pipeline can reveal whether or not you’re moving in the right direction.
  2. Post-learning engagement: Ensure your learning initiatives include reinforcement, such as virtual instructor-led webinars, e-learning, video bites, simulations, and coaching(as indicated above). Tracking your sales team engagement with reinforcement activities can indicate whether or not they retained the knowledge and if they’re changing behaviors.

Even initiatives that have well-defined goals, are focused on the right topics, and receive top ratings can fail. The companies that get the best results from sales learning initiatives focus on two areas that can significantly boost results:

Effectiveness of sales leaders: One of the greatest leverage points in sales success is the effectiveness of sales leaders. Leaders can boost the success of any learning by maximising motivation, re-inforcing learning at team meetings, hold their sales team accountable.

  • Sales culture: A culture that supports sales motivation and achievement can be a real game-changer for your sales results.

As you develop your sales learning initiative, you must first define where you want to go and which metrics you need to move the needle. Then, track the leading and lagging indicators and adjust. With a clear path and goal, and a culture supported by sales leadership to get there, you set the stage for the best revenue and margin growth possible.

The world's wealthiest people make a huge contribution to climate change through carbon-hungry activities. How can we reduce emissions from the rich?

In 2018, Stefan Gössling and his team spent months scouring the social media profiles of some of the richest celebrities, from Paris Hilton to Oprah Winfrey. The tourism professor from Linnaeus University in Sweden was looking for evidence of how much they were flying.

瑞典林奈大学的旅游教授格斯令（Stefan Gössling ）和他所领导的研究小组2018年用了几个月时间搜索美国名媛帕丽斯·希尔顿（Paris Hilton）和媒体名人奥普拉（Operah Winfrey）等全球最富有名人在他们社交媒体上的资料，寻找他们乘搭飞机次数的证据。

The answer was a lot. Bill Gates, one of the world's most high-profile environmental advocates, took 59 flights in 2017, according to Gössling's calculations, covering a distance of around 343,500km (213,000 miles) – more than eight times around the world – generating more than 1,600 tonnes of greenhouse gases (that's equivalent to the average yearly emissions of 105 Americans).

The last few decades have shone a spotlight on global inequality. From the 2008 financial crisis, to the pandemic and the increasingly severe impacts of climate change – disruptive events tend to hit the poorest first and hardest.

But in debates about how to solve inequality, over-consumption is often overlooked. "Each unit you overshoot means someone has to give [something] up," says Lewis Akenji, managing director of Hot or Cool Institute, a Berlin-based think tank. As a result, the outsized carbon footprints of society's richest entrench inequality and threaten the world's ability to stave off catastrophic climate change.

不过在如何解决“碳排放不平等”的争议方面，人们通常会忽略富裕者的超高碳消费这一点。位于德国柏林的地球暖化问题研究智库——气候暖化问题研究所（Hot or Cool Institute）的负责人阿肯吉（Lewis Akenji）表示：“你每排放一个单位的碳，就意味着必须有人失去（一点东西)”。而结果是，社会上最富有的人产生的巨大碳足迹强化了贫富差距，威胁着全球抵御灾难性气候变化的能力。

Who is the 1%?

When we think of "the rich", we might think of millionaires and billionaires with private jets and multiple mansions.

But an income of $38,000 (£27,500) is enough to put someone in the world's richest 10%, and $109,000 (£79,000) puts them in the top 1%.

但实际只要年收入达到 $3.8万美元已属于全球 10%的最富有者，达到$10.9万美元则进入顶端 1%的最富圈子。

The statistics are startling. The world's wealthiest 10% were responsible for around half of global emissions in 2015, according to a 2020 report from Oxfam and the Stockholm Environment Institute. The top 1% were responsible for 15% of emissions, nearly twice as much as the world's poorest 50%, who were responsible for just 7% and will feel the brunt of climate impacts despite bearing the least responsibility for causing them.

As the rich race through the remaining "carbon budget" – the amount of greenhouse gas it's possible to emit without pushing the world beyond 1.5C of warming by the end of the century – they "aren't making the space for the bottom 50% of the population to grow their emissions to the point where they're actually getting their needs met", says Emily Ghosh, a staff scientist at the Stockholm Environment Institute.

斯德哥尔摩环境研究所的科学家艾米丽·高希(Emily Ghosh)说，全球富裕人口争抢剩余的“碳排放量配额”，即为达到本世纪末全球气候升温不超过摄氏1.5度可允许排放的温室气体量上限，但却“未给全球最穷50%人口留下可让他们满足民生所需的排放量空间”。

Dario Kenner, the author of Carbon Inequality: The Role of the Richest in Climate Change, coined the term "polluter elite" to describe the wealthiest in society who invest extensively in fossil fuels, as well as having a strong climate impact from their high-carbon lifestyles. But while the polluter elite have a disproportionate impact, the world's wealthiest encompasses a much broader swathe of the population.

《碳排放不平等：地球最富有者在气候变化中的角色》(Carbon Inequality: the Role of the Richest in Climate Change)一书的作者肯纳（Dario Kenner）发明了“污染精英”（polluter elite）这个词，用来指大量投资化石燃料，或高碳生活方式对气候产生巨大影响的最富有社会阶层。但是，虽然污染精英人数很少，对气候的影响却很大，不过所谓世界上最富有者的涵盖面比我们所想的要大很多。

As things stand, most people in wealthy countries are consuming in ways that are accelerating climate catastrophe. When you take into account the emissions from imported goods, the average person in the UK emits 8.5 tonnes of carbon a year according to the Hot or Cool Institute, a figure that rises to 14.2 tonnes in Canada, the country with highest emissions among those the institute surveyed. In order to stay within 1.5C of warming, these figures need to come down dramatically to 0.7 tonnes per person by 2050.

Personal consumption is a thorny topic to address. It can quickly spiral into a well-worn debate about whether tackling climate change hinges on individual actions or systemic changes from governments and corporations.

"This is a false dichotomy," says Akenji. "Lifestyles don't exist in a vacuum, lifestyles are shaped by context." People live their lives within the mostly unsustainable political and economic systems that exist. But, without addressing the lifestyles of the wealthiest and most polluting in our societies, and the power they hold, we won't be able to address climate change.

阿肯吉说，“这是一种非此即彼的错误认识。个人生活方式不是存在于真空中，而是被社会所左右”。 人类现在赖以生活的既有政治和经济体制几乎是不可持续的。要是不正视社会中最富有、产生污染最严重的这部份人的生活方式及其所拥有的权力，就无法从根本上解决气候变化问题。

"Wealthy people set the tone on consumption to which everybody aspires. That's where the toxic effects are," says Halina Szejnwald Brown, professor emerita of environmental science and policy at Clark University in the US.

美国克拉克大学（Clark University）环境科学与政策名誉教授布朗（Halina Szejnwald Brown）表示，富人的消费模式引起人人仿效，这就是毒性影响之所在。"

Take aviation. "As soon as you fly, you belong to a global elite," says Gössling. More than 90% of people have never flown and just 1% of the world's population is responsible for 50% of emissions from flying. From the business elite crisscrossing the globe to the celebrities who have made travel part of their personal brands, their behaviour has helped make a high carbon lifestyle aspirational and desirable, says Gössling.

The SUVs that ferry around presidents, business leaders and celebrities – and increasingly middle class families in cities – have also become a status symbol despite their environmental impact. Making up 42% of global car sales in 2019, SUVs were the only sector to see emissions rise in 2020. The increase in people buying SUVs last year effectively cancelled out the climate gains of electric cars.

Bigger homes are another consumption hotspot. "Housing choices signify prestige and social status," writes Kimberly Nicholas, a sustainability scientist at Lund University, and her co-authors in a recent study on the role of wealthy people in driving climate change. In Europe, nearly 11% of emissions from housing came from the top 1% of emitters who own large – and often multiple – homes.

豪宅巨室是另一项热门的豪华消费。针对富人在气候变化所起作用，瑞典隆德大学（Lund University）可持续发展科学家尼古拉斯（Kimberly Nicholas ）最近做了一项研究，她同合著者在研究报告中指出，“住宅的选择彰显一个人的名望和社会地位。”在欧洲，近11%的住房碳排放来自于拥有大型（通常是多套）豪宅的1%的顶端富豪。

The last few years, however, have seen social norms start to shift. In Sweden, Thunberg's activism helped inspire flygskam (the Swedish word for "flight shame"), a concept which led people to question how much they should be flying. The movement was linked to a 4% drop in the number of people flying from Sweden's airports in 2018 – a rare fall at a time when global passenger numbers were increasing.

Covid-19, which dramatically curtailed business travel, proved that video calls can replace in-person meetings. A Bloomberg survey found 84% of businesses plan to spend less on work travel post-pandemic.

But these changes are too gradual for the emergency we are in, says Kenner: "We're going past climate tipping points and species are going extinct." The issue is about speed, and for that government action is necessary, he says.

For example, proceeds from a frequent flyer tax could be invested into a cheaper or even free public transport system, and money from a "mansion tax" could be put towards insulating houses, bringing down levels of fuel poverty. The problem, though, is if the richest can simply absorb these costs and continue as before.

Another policy idea that's gaining popularity is "choice editing", where governments restrict carbon-intensive products – like private jets or mega yachts – from coming to market in the first place. The idea is low-carbon options, many of which already exist, will fill the gap.

Choice editing may sound radical but it's not new, says Akenji. The UK government, for example, uses choice editing on public safety grounds to ban the sale of guns or cars with no seatbelts. "Undoing unsustainable behaviours is a whole lot harder than preventing unsustainable products from coming to market in the first place," concluded an April report on behaviour change co-authored by Newell.

But even as time runs out for tackling climate change, many governments baulk at behaviour-change policies fearing they will be politically toxic to voters and unpalatable to the rich. The control that the wealthiest have over governments through lobbying and hefty donations gives them huge influence to dilute climate action and shape the choices available for everyone, says Kenner. "There's this other future, this alternative future, which is being denied on a daily basis," he says.

For all the policies that target the behaviour of consumers, ultimately, it's very hard to bring down emissions if the infrastructure isn't there for people to live low-carbon lives. "There's a lot that needs to go into building a more sustainable society and it's beyond just reducing private jets and luxury yachts," says Ghosh.

Some governments are making big changes. The Welsh government has suspended investment in new road building to meet emissions targets, the Netherlands has proposed cutting livestock numbers by 30% to reduce pollution and councils in UK cities such as Norwich and Exeter have started building energy-efficient social housing.

Others have targeted the role of advertising in driving unsustainable consumption. "People try to stake out their place in society by distinguishing themselves from those that are below them," says Brown, and advertising "builds its entire industry on this insecurity." In 2021, Amsterdam banned adverts for emissions-intensive products including SUVs and cheap short-haul flights, following in the footsteps of cities such as São Paulo and Chennai, which have banned or strictly limited billboard advertising.

"But this is really not enough," says Akenji. The pace is glacial and the world is running out of time. Governments need to overhaul infrastructure, he says, putting sustainability at the heart of policy. That means creating fast, extensive and affordable public transport networks; decarbonising electricity; building denser, well-insulated housing; banning the use of gas-powered cars; and considering measures such as a four-day working week.

Governments and the wealthy, with their outsized role in influencing social norms, can also help to change the narrative that climate action is all about loss of personal freedom and quality of life. "The sad thing about this is that things that have been shown to be more sustainable for the environment are almost always better for our own wellbeing and social cohesion," says Akenji.

"No one gets up in the morning and says, 'I'm going to wreck the environment'," says Akenji. People consume for many reasons: to meet their needs, to show affection, to feel good or because they feel pressured into it by advertising or social expectations.

Very few people ever really question their consumption, says Brown. "These are pretty deep questions: 'Who am I and what do I need for a good life?' I mean, how many people want to sit down and actually ask that question?"

布朗说，很少有人会对自己的消费模式认真思考，予以质疑。“我是谁？”“我需要什么才能过上美好的生活？” 这些都是非常深奥的问题。多数人可能不会扪心自问。

Individual actions won't be enough to tackle climate change, says Akenji, and guilt and shame won't help. But choices and actions do matter. "I think we should all become political activists in one way or another," he says. "What we're going to do is very deliberately and decisively go after our governments and ask them to live up to their commitments."

Developing a feedback tool to gain insights into the professional identity of STEM students

Vos, M. de (2017) Developing a feedback tool to gain insights into the professional identity of STEM students.

[img] PDF
Abstract:It is expected that the number of jobs in the technical sector will grow the next years. Nevertheless, technical companies have to deal with a shortage of technical staff. This deficiency can be explained by the fact that many technical students leave the technical sector when they enter the labor market. The aim of this study was to develop a feedback tool to provide STEM students with personalized feedback about their professional identity. Insight in professional identity is an important step to make STEM students aware of their own professional identity and contributes to career choices that suit the student. Furthermore, a strong professional identity increases the motivation for a study and reduces the change of leaving the technical field. A literature review and focus group discussions with STEM students were used to determine the five design requirements for the feedback tool: informative, clear, goal oriented, concise and to the point, and the use of multimedia principles. In general, students indicated the feedback tool as useful to gain insights into their professional identity and the feedback turned out to be concise and to the point, informative, and clear. Students could identify themselves with the feedback and preferred to read all information about the profiles, the dimensions and the next steps. To make STEM students pro-active in their own learning and to meet the lack of the reflective nature of career guidance for STEM students the feedback tool could be used as a mapping tool to provide a starting point for a dialogue about a future career between STEM students and counselors.

Education Services For Children With Autism

As the prevalence of autism has increased astronomically in recent years, so has the number of available treatments and education options. Parents must sift through the many interventions and decide which is best for the education of their child. More and more parents are educating themselves; the treatment options are exciting and give hope to parents of children with autism. But the task of determining which treatments and education paths are best for each child is a great responsibility.

Once a child is diagnosed with autism, families have many questions and concerns. One of the major dilemmas is determining how a child with autism will be educated. Each child is different with unique qualities; the education of each child with autism is determined by their needs and strengths.

Autism is considered to be a spectrum disorder. It is a disorder characterized by symptoms that include repetitive behaviors or interests, deficits in social interaction and deficits in verbal and nonverbal communication. Furthermore, children with autism often have unusual responses to sensory stimulation. Children with autism may also display symptoms that include an inability to form relationships, delay in the development of speech, lack of imagination, repeated patterns of activities, extreme aloofness and insistence on consistency in routines and isolated areas of strong ability.

Research has determined that early intervention is crucial for children with autism. Early interventions include services from speech therapists, occupational therapists, adapted physical education, applied behavior analysis, social skills training and other therapies. Some of the services are provided through the local school district; however, many families choose to hire private therapists and aides.

Children with autism are eligible for special education services under the federal law once they turn three years old. The services include children who are in both general education and special education classes. Some parents keep their children in a general education class for their education with support services being provided for specialized needs. Many children with autism are educated in a special education class. Special education classes are designed specifically for students with disabilities and are taught by a special education teacher. A child can also be serviced by a resource specialist who is a special education teacher who either goes into a general education class or pulls students with disabilities out of the general education class. The related services that are available include school psychologists, school nurses, speech specialists, physical/occupational therapists and behavioral therapists. Other special education services available are community-based training for the older child and summer school for many special day class students. Services vary according to the child's needs. A child with autism may have difficulty with communication and may need services specifically focusing on speech and language development. A child with Asperger's disorder which is on the autism spectrum may have average or above average intelligence but may still be in need of services.

Services required for a child with autism will most likely change over time. The most important thing a family can do once a diagnosis of autism is determined, is to seek support and services. Recent reports reveal one of every 166 children is diagnosed with autism. Fortunately, the exposure of the topic is providing extensive and exciting research and hope!

Education Services For Children With Autism 8.1 of 10 on the basis of 2608 Review.

Tree Surgeon Services and Operations

True professionalism for peace of mind

We aim to offer you a quality service and some of the best experience available. We take on work of any size, without losing the care and attention that has made our reputation amongst our many satisfied customers.

Some of the services we offer include the following:

Tree Pruning

Formative pruning and the select removal of problem branches, thereby reducing the height and or spread of the tree, leaving it with a more attractive and healthier structure.

Tree Reshaping

A well-proportioned tree is a delight to see, and careful reshaping and thinning can greatly improve its appearance and structure by the careful removal of the outer branches.

Tree Reduction

A Complete reduction of the size of the tree by the careful removal of the outer crown to produce a smaller sized canopy.

Tree Felling

Whilst we consider tree removal as the last resort, often there is no other alternative than to carefully remove the tree carefully in sections. We have the latest rigging equipment and training to ensure you get the very best and safest sectional fell.

Tree reports

We offer a written report detailing the condition of any trees or giving an opinion on whether trees may effect the property structure for the benefit of Mortgages, building societies etc.

Do you have another problem not listed here? Click here to fill out our online info request form and we will advise you further. Alternatively give us a call on 0800 018 3999

Crown lifting

The removal of lower branches to lift the crown height. This often used to provide clearance for pedestrians or buildings. This is normally achieved by removing the lowest branches, of the crown, to a specified height.

Crown Reduction

The ends of all branches are reduced, in length, back to suitable ‘growth points’ (side branches). As a result the entire tree crown is reduced, in size and volume, whilst retaining the natural shape of the species. This procedure is usually stipulated in terms of a percentage (rarely more than 30%).

Crown Thinning

Branches are removed from within the tree crown in order to make it uniformly less dense. The natural shape of the tree is completely unaffected but the ‘Sail Effect’ (wind resistance) is reduced and more light allowed to filter through. This procedure is usually stipulated in terms of a percentage (rarely more than 30%).

Supply and correct initial planting of trees, watering and aftercare along with formative pruning when still young to ensure optimum future form.

Stump grinding

Stump grinding and stump disposal. We use the very latest compact stump grinders, so difficult access is not an issue click here to see video footage of the stump grinder in action.
We only need a minimum access of 26 inches.

For more information - click here

Stump Removal

Either by ‘grubbing out’ by hand (if the stump is small enough), employing a stump grinding machine (if the stump is large) or poisoning the stump and allowing it to slowly decay over time. All pruning cuts comply to modern arboriculture principles which limit, as much as possible, the impact of tree surgery on tree health.

Hedge trimming

Hedges of any size can be topped and trimmed to your specific dimensions.

Fire Wood & Split Logs

Forget the winter firewood gathering- we've done it for you.
We supply and deliver split logs, from our extensive supply of fully seasoned logs.

For more information - click here

Dead Wooding

The removal of dead or dying branches usually for safety and aesthetics. Larger dead branches can be safely retained (in order to provide habitat for birds and insects) by reducing their length and weight.

Removing a substantial amount of the tree crown and then regularly pruning at set intervals – provides long lasting access or sunlight without removing the tree completely. This is not a recommended approach to tree care.

Site clearance

Remove trees and shrub from brown field land or allocated construction sites – provides access for future construction and compliant with legal wildlife protection schemes.

Veteran Tree Management

Veteran trees are ancient specimens in the final stage of their life. Because of their old age they provide us with significant biological, aesthetic and cultural interest. The vitality of veteran trees is normally slowing and they are frequently in a dangerous condition. As a result the temptation is often to remove them.

However, with careful planning and ongoing management charnwood can help you safely preserve your old trees in an attractive state. One of the most recent developments in veteran tree management, that we try and employ at charnwood where possible, is the use of Natural Fracture Techniques (NFT).

NFT's are pruning cuts that mimic the jagged edges seen on broken branches following storm damage. As well as looking more natural than conventional pruning cuts they provide wonderful habitat for a myriad of fungi, insects and birds whilst removing any structural weakness.

Formative Pruning

The formation of a healthy stem and branch framework in very young trees. Achieved by carefully selecting and removing diseased wood, congested and rubbing branches and weak branch unions. Correct formative pruning can dramatically reduce the chances of disease, structural weakness and branch failure as the tree matures.

Specialised tree services for our commercial customers include:

• Emergency road work to local authorities, Highway Agency etc to provide access.
• Emergency tree work to the insurance industry to prevent further damage to property.
• Planning application reports (BS5837: 2005 "trees in relation to construction") to the construction industry and small freeholds.
• Road traffic management work to keep traffic moving while trees and scrub are removed.
• Safety inspection reports to meet health & safety standards or as part of preventative maintenance.
