Worthy of Thought Traffic Impact on Vehicle Sales?

Here is an extraordinary TV Spot from Cisco called called "The Last Traffic Jam." It takes place sometime in the near future -- in "The Museum of Lasts" -- showing people looking at an actual traffic jam inside the museum. The punchline is that because of cool things Cisco is doing there won't be any more traffic jams. We sure hope Cisco is right. The commercial captures, highlights and engages all of us in the automotive industry. We have yet to really understand just how much traffic does and will continue to impact vehicle sales and how people will use vehicles in the future. Watch it more than once.

The rate of sea-level rise is far worse previously thought, study says
2015-01-16 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Washington Post: Researchers have come up with a new and improved way of measuring the rise in the sea level, and the news is not good: The seas have risen dramatically faster over the last two decades than anyone had known. For hundreds of years, the seas were measured by more or less the equivalent of plopping a yard stick into the ocean and seeing if the ocean went up or down. But now, that method looks to be outdated. According to a new study published on Wednesday in Nature, the new method involves an...
Is sea-level rise accelerating even more than we thought?

Vox: The acceleration of sea-level rise since the 1990s may have been a much bigger deal than anyone realized. That's the upshot of an interesting new study in Nature, which argues that past research had overestimated the pace of global sea-level rise between 1900 and 1990 by about 30 percent. That would mean that the period of rising sea levels since 1990 -- which have been well-studied and tracked by satellites -- represents an even bigger departure from the past than once believed. (Both this...
Study says sea levels rising quicker than thought

Deutsche-Welle: US researchers have used probability theory to calculate that the global mean sea level rose slower throughout most of the 20th century than previously thought. But more recently, it may be rising faster. A new study helps clarify the mystery of why the sea levels seem to have risen faster than was expected during most of the 20th century. So far, researchers assumed that worldwide, the oceans have been rising constantly by 1.6 to 1.9 millimeters per year. But this was far more than could be...
