Scientists widely agree that human activity is the main driver of global warming, and that we have to radically reduce greenhouse gas emissions to avoid its worst impacts. But when it comes to how we can best slash emissions, some scientists are fiercely at odds. A scholarly brawl broke out this week after energy experts ripped apart a widely cited 2015 study that found the U.S. economy could affordably run on 100-percent renewable energy by midcentury.

In South Korea, the actual Business Survey Index (BSI) in the manufacturing sector measures the level of optimism that business leaders have about the performance of the economy in the current month and their outlook for the following month. The Index is based on the survey of around 2800 companies in fifteen areas including sales, inventories, production facilities, prices, labor force and profitability. For each of the indicators measured, the net difference between the number of positive responses and the number of negative responses is computed. The BSI above 100 indicates an improving outlook and below 100 a deteriorating outlook.

Uber’s CEO gets criticized a lot for the unethical things he does. But i think those things are a necessary evil

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

A NY Times article describes several instances where he would push ethical boundaries. I know that there is a general outrage in the public and uber is facing a public image problem because of a lot of things they have done, but as a founder i think its sometimes necessary to do those things, push those boundaries and tow the ethical line, borderline illegal as well at times.

The world isn’t fair, just because you built a great product, the world wont come flocking to it. Competitors who are ass-holes will beat you all the time.

I see myself agreeing with a lot (though not all) of his tactics. What do you guys think ? Read the article here
