		<description>I guess the U.S. need to accept the suggestions of the E.U., and the E.U.and the other nations need to adopt  an advanced smart grid technology, which is worth the deficit for job creation and economic activity, is something to do ultimately.

I think like USA, the world economy also urgently needs job creation, and like internet, the global economy requires common ground, that is why The World-Wide Green New Deal is necessary. 
We can not rebuild grand economy on the volatile, declining energy base, instead, the world has enough technology and its potential, I suppose. 

China, India and the other overpopulated areas consume massive energy, amid the declining oil reserve,and so without a new effective alternative energy system, we can not expect renewed economy prosperity, and that is why &#039;the global green new deal&#039; is required, I think.

Thank you !</description>

		<description>Well, well.  The Met and its counterparts must have had some serious retention problems with older staff.  Perhaps they did an SA teacher-style retrenchment of all the oldies?  Is there no one in the entire force that was around 30-odd years ago who can go, &#039;Er, dudes?  That was the end of the world too.  They&#039;ll be out dressed in their commie cartoon outfits, yell and bit and chuck a few stones and tomatoes and then go off home for a cup of tea and a nap before coming back tomorrow for more of the same.&#039;

The difference way back then when no one remembers?  We were actually a bit hungry then.  Middle class England isn&#039;t hungry now, I just don&#039;t see it being any worse really unless (this being the operative section here) the forces go completely overboard and thus themselves incite something other than tomato-throwing and yelling.

Of course, let&#039;s be honest, preparation for the end of the world is still vital.  The whole event might be hijacked by some groups with motives that don&#039;t match up with the real protest...but that&#039;s surely a regular day for the crack anti-terror blokes, nothing less.  Also, much of that is intelligence-based so if they&#039;re already scouting MySpace and have any brain cells left then surely they&#039;ve covered that one.  Not that real terrorists use MySpace surely?</description>

		<description>I used to enjoy watching the May day riots live on Sky &amp; BBC in 2001 and 2002.  They kinda died out with the years of prosperity.  But I guess we can look forward to some great TV.  Although aging anarchists throwing empty bottles and breaking a few shop windows shouldn&#039;t trouble riot police.</description>
