The world`s airlines have taken a momentous decision to ensure that flying is sustainable. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) 77th Annual General Meeting approved a resolution for the global air transport industry to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. Achieving net zero emissions will be a huge challenge. The aviation industry must progressively reduce its emissions while accommodating the growing demand of a world that is eager to fly. A key immediate enabler is the International Civil Aviation Organization`s (ICAO) Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA). This will stabilize international emissions at 2019 levels in the short-to-medium term.
f American was by the use of advertising. Many companies used brightly colored advertisements to promote their products. This lead to newspapers having advertisements and eventually lead to colored comics, pages about sports and more. This advertisement then leads to stores that carried many different items, so people can just go to one store to get everything they needed. Since not everyone could travel to go to these stores, A. Montgomery Ward came up with “Mail-order catalogs”. This was a way that people could order things from this magazine and it would be sent to them in the mail.
2. What trends does Andrew Carnegie see in the distribution of wealth in his time? Does he see these trends as good or bad? Why? What role do you think the corporation has had in these trends?
Andrew Carnegie sees the distribution of wealth becoming even in his time. He says, “the few rich are getting poorer, and the toiling masses are getting richer”. He sees this as a good thing because if the distribution of wealth overtime is becoming even, then there will not just be poor and rich there will also be some people in the middle. The role that corporation had on these trends could be that big corporations gave jobs to the poor, so that makes the poor becoming richer and since the person running the corporation had to pay the workers and not keep all the money to himself is will therefore get poorer.
3. How does Carnegie’s account of the rise of great wealth, as a reflection of the corporation’s rise, differ from statements by the Knights of Labor and Gompers? What challenges do they see for workers in this new economy?
The thoughts of Carnegie about the rise of great wealth did not agree with the Knights of Labor. Carnegie stated, “the few rich are getting poorer, and the toiling masses are getting richer”. The Knights of Labor believed that the poor are just going to keep getting poorer unless something gets done about it. The Knights of Labor saw many obdurate challenges for the workers in this new economy. They believed that workers were not going to get paid in full every week. Also, they saw how much the railroads were expanding and they were afraid that they were going to take away land from the farmers and settlers causing them to be out of work. Another challenge the see for workers is that children will be forced to work in harsh environments at a young age just to get extra money for their families.
