Title: Negotiations on GHG emissions from international marine and aviation bunkers: issues and concerns

Keywords: Kyoto Protocol, greenhouse gas, aviation, shipping
Abstract: The Kyoto Protocol (KP) is a protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on climate change (UNFCCC or FCCC), and primary tool aimed at combating global warming and climate change. The KP does not cover emissions from international bunkers and in its paragraph 2.2 directs Annex I countries to pursue reduction of GHG emissions from marine and aviation bunker fuels by ' working through ' IMO (International Maritime Organization) and ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) respectively. Getting the mandate from UNFCCC, IMO and ICAO have been leading the discussions on formulating a regime to address the GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions from shipping and aviation respectively. However, there are differences on the issue of coverage of emissions from international bunkers (aviation and shipping) and especially the scope of the application of market based measured. Some of the nations want the global application of measures based on the ' no more favourable treatment principle ' (which was adopted in 1982 in the Paris memoradum of understanding on port state control and proposes ' flag neutrality ' ) in the case of shipping and Chicago Convention in the case of aviation. On the other hand, other nations want the adoption of CBDR (common but differentiated responsibility) principles in any proceeding on the matter. The debate has entered into a deadlock. The paper dicusses this issue of the coverage of GHG emissions from international marine and aviation bunkers and brings to light the various discussions that have happened on the same. An attempt has been made to identify the problem associated with the issue and finally some recommendations have been made.

Title: Towards a green techno-economic paradigm

Keywords: Climate change
Abstract: Considering the magnitude and urgency concerning climate change, and the important role of technology therein, it is imperative that transition towards a global green techno economic paradigm is proactively promoted. Such a transition is not possible unless there is a strong bias in favour of environment in policy making as well as at the level of technological choices made by firms. This paper attempts to touch upon some of the crucial issues that must be addressed in order to bring about a strong ' environmental bias ' in making technological as well as policy choices necessary for establishing a green techno-economic paradigm.

Title: Estimation of household demand for electricity in Sri Lanka: a cointegration analysis

Abstract: This study uses cointegration analysis to estimate the long-run and the short-run elasticity of demand for electricity in Sri Lanka The long-run demand elasticities of income, own price, and kerosene price were estimated to be 0.83, -0.75, and 0.15 respectively, while the short-run elasticities for the same were 0.43, -0.58 and 0.11. The error correction model indicates that when demand is above or below its equilibrium level, consumption adjust by 21% within the first year. The inelastic price of electricity indicates that a price increase is not a very effective tool for energy conservation or demand management. It further suggests that removal of subsidy on electricity can be achieved without reduction in revenue for the electricity board. The long-run income elasticity indicates that potential future income increases will result in a significant increase in electricity demand. Therefore, the existing power generation plans, which only consider current average per capita consumption and population growth need revisions.

Title: Ion selective electrodes for rare earth metal ions

Abstract: This review presents a general overview about the development of ion-selective electrodes for lanthanide ions during the past decade. Ionophore-incorporated binder-membrane sensors are well established analytical tools routinely used for direct measurement of a wide variety of different lanthanide ions in environmental samples. The active ingredient of the membrane is a ionophore, which forms the complex with the cation of interest and dicates the selectivity of the electrode. In the last few years, the development of new ion-selective electrodes for various lanthanide ions has been reported by researchers. This review contains the information about most of the lanthanide (La, Ce, Pr, Dy, Tb, Eu, Lu, Nd, Gd, Sm, Ho, Er and Yb) ion-selective electrodes.
