With few exceptions, the pattern of jobs distributed across Utah is largely unchanged after two recessions since the turn of the new century. That underscores not only the unusual diversity of the state’s economy, but it increases the likelihood employment in the state will grow faster than in the U.S. for some time. It’s true the Great Recession gave construction a good drubbing , manufacturing employment ebbed and flowed between 2000 and 2012, and the information sector seems in permanent decl... ... |

Great Barrier Reef is at risk even if it doesn't make Unesco's danger list | Graham Readfearn
|
13.5.2013 |
Guardian: Environment |
| UN World Heritage Committee to rule on whether fossil fuel industry threatens Australia's reef, but its coral is already in peril
It might be regarded as some sort of sick joke that the Great Barrier Reef happens to nestle beside the heart of Australia's fossil fuel export boom.
When the coal ships leave the Queensland ports, the two become one as the captains make passage through the 2300 kilometre/1430 mile-long reef – the world's largest.
Now environment groups and the United Nations World Heritage Committee have decided this joke just isn't funny any more.
WWF Australia, the Australian Marine Conservation Society and Greenpeace are all engaged in campaigns to "save the reef" from the ravages of climate change and the construction of multi-billion dollar port facilities to ship coal and gas around the world.
Greenpeace describes it as "one of the biggest environmental battles in our nation's history" and is pushing a campaign of peaceful civil disobedience.

Parts of UK Coal may be nationalised after colliery fire closes pit
|
13.5.2013 |
The Guardian -- Front Page |
| Ministers discuss returning parts of UK Coal to public ownership in attempt to save retirement savings for 6,000 members
Troubled parts of UK Coal, Britain's largest coal mining business, could return to public ownership under plans being discussed by ministers that would protect some or all of the company's ailing pension scheme.
Ministers are in daily contact with the company and union representatives, acutely aware that a failure of the business would wipe almost £360m off the value of retirement savings for 6,800 pension scheme members and saddle the government-sponsored Pension Protection Fund (PPF) with a £540m bill.
The future of UK Coal, which runs three of Britain's last remaining deep pits, was plunged into uncertainty in February when a fire broke out causing the closure of its largest deep-pit colliery, Daw Mill in Warwickshire. The underground blaze, which is still burning, has resulted in 650 miners being put out of work and has cost UK Coal £160m in lost coal and a £100m in ... |
