Economics at the Wheel

Economics at the Wheel

Richard C. Porter

Academic Press Inc
1999
sidottu
"Economics at the Wheel" is about cars and driving, and all the problems that cars and drivers create for America. It explains actual government policy intended to reduce the damage cars and drivers do to us, and it explains why these government policies are almost all failures because they attack the wrong problem or attack it in the wrong way. The reader will come away with a much fuller understanding of air pollution, global warming, highway safety, auto insurance, gasoline taxation, rush-hour congestion, leaking underground storage tanks, and many other auto-related issues. It looks at common actions and circumstances from an economics perspective. It is readable with accessible prose style and few footnotes. It includes questions to provoke student thinking and boxed sections of side materials to stimulate discussions.

The Economics of Waste

The Economics of Waste

Richard C. Porter

Routledge
2017
sidottu
In this concise, engaging, and provocative work, Richard Porter introduces readers to the economic tools that can be applied to problems involved in handling a diverse range of waste products from business and households. Emphasizing the impossibility of achieving a zero-risk environment, Porter focuses on the choices that apply in real world decisions about waste. Acknowledging that effective waste policy integrates knowledge from several disciplines, Porter focuses on the use of economic analysis to reveal the costs of different policies and therefore how much can be done to meet goals to protect human health and the environment. With abundant examples, he considers subjects such as landfills, incineration, and illegal disposal. He discusses the international trade in waste, the costs and benefits of recycling, and special topics such as hazardous materials, Superfund, and nuclear waste. While making clear his belief that not every form of waste presents the same amount of risk, Porter stresses the need for open-minded approaches to developing new policies. For students, policymakers, and general readers, he provides insight and accessibility to a subject that others might leave out-of-sight, out-of-mind, or buried under an impenetrable prose of statistics and jargon.

The Economics of Water and Waste in Three African Capitals

The Economics of Water and Waste in Three African Capitals

Richard C. Porter; Louis Boakye-Yiadom Jr; Albertt Mafusire; B. Oupa Tsheko

Routledge
2019
sidottu
First published in 1997, this volume examines the urban environments of Accra (Ghana), Harare (Zimbabwe) and Gaborone (Botswana). Each was effectively the capital city of a former British colony, and hence inherited a concern for public health. Each has made a serious and largely successful effort to provide the public goods necessary for the well-being of their urban population. Each is well above the average for all of Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) in these respects. However, the GDP per capita varies significantly between these three countries. Differences in standard of living are similarly evident. The authors focus intensively on public policies that determine who gets what, how they get it, and what price they pay.

Richard C. Elliott

Richard C. Elliott

sidottu
Richard C. Elliott (1945-2008) was a nationally recognized mixed media artist who lived and worked in Ellensburg, Washington. Born in Portland, Oregon, Elliott received his BA degree from Central Washington University in Ellensburg in art and economics. During the 1970s, he made meticulous drawings of his friends and other subjects, weaving light and form together to capture a particular moment in time. By the early 1980s, however, he no longer felt that he could express what he wanted to about light and natural structure through drawing. He began to explore primary colors and light active materials, and by 1987, decided to focus on the safety reflector as his medium of choice.During the 1990s and early 2000s, Elliott created a broad range of work that combined safety reflectors with two-dimensional geometric designs: site specific installations, reflectors mounted onto wood and canvas, and numerous public art commissions, including the Hallie Ford Museum of Art. He even experimented with neon in his ongoing exploration of light. During the last year of his life, he turned his attention to a series of computer-generated prints utilizing thousands of different colors and geometric designs.

Po Richard: Memoirs of a Nobody

Po Richard: Memoirs of a Nobody

Richard C. Shumaker

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2015
nidottu
At 79 years of age, Richard C. Shumaker believes the best years are ahead of him. He has worked hard, struggled at times, and tasted the fruits of success and the bitter pill of failure...but he has lived. His somewhat autobiographical work entitled 'Po Richard' is a thoughtfully crafted compilation of random reflections, unique stories, wonderful memories, and thought-provoking anecdotes, which have made up his many years. If you have ever looked back and wondered what it was all about and if it was worth it, you will find solace and kinship in the reiteration of these not-so-ordinary moments of insight and diverse commentary. From quips to stories with deep meaning and even some prior prejudices, you will learn to appreciate Po Richard as a man of remarkable hindsight, and forethought for tomorrow - perhaps his best years are truly ahead of him. Buy the book, read his tales, and make a new friend. Richard will have you laughing, nodding in agreement, and even cringing before the last page is turned. Through it all, you will come to understand a man that knows "Who Cares", answers most questions, and there is more to living than what you see on the surface.
