- W2000277206 abstract "The Worldwatch Institute has been able to track global trends because it has gathered global data on various socioeconomic and environmental indicators for 19 years. Growth in the oceanic fish catch has stopped indicating that expansion of fish farming will be needed to increase fish stocks. Energy trends suggest that wind-generating capacity may exceed that of nuclear- generating capacity in the 1990s. The world probably cannot keep up with the demand for all major sources of animal protein. Bicycle production outpaces that of automobile production supporting the bicycles rising position as the worlds chief means of personal transport. The amount of grain each African consumes has been falling for almost 20 years but the Institute does not know how much malnutrition has increase because annual nutrition surveys are rate. Vital Signs 1993 presents global food agricultural resource energy atmospheric economic transportation and social trends. Specifically some of these developments are a decrease in fertilizer use a decline in the annual rate of fossil fuel production and governments use of taxes to reverse trends (e.g. cigarette tax reduces cigarette use)--a promising means of public policy. The report concludes with a section on special features. For example it addresses the environmental issues of increasing water scarcity damaged forests by air pollution and the decline of many marine mammal populations. The decline of fertility has stopped and literacy rates climbing slowly comprise social features. Economic features include a drop in the wheat/oil exchange rate rising cigarette taxes and rising US seafood prices. The leveling off of the fall in the nuclear arsenal and escalation of UN peacekeeping activities makes up the section on military features." @default.
