System and method for sub-second data replication. The present invention provides the ability to replicate database transactions made on one computer to one or more local or remote computers instantly, utilizing the database management system's transaction log for the replication. The present invention intercepts transactions being sent to a database's transaction log and interprets and copies the transactions to one or more replica servers, as well as to the original existing database transaction log. This enables real-time reporting without taxing the transaction system, real-time backup and immediate disaster recovery, by offloading said activities from the transaction server to a replica server that synchronized with the transaction server in real-time. The system comprises a central server and a set of source and destination agents that can reside all in a local system, or can be remotely connected such as through a TCP/IP networks The central server controls a series of loadable modules to perform specific functions in the system, and an agent that runs on every machine in the system that has a relational database management system running. The agent is either a source agent, gathering data from a source database server, or a destination (or target) agent, applying the data to the destination database, or both a source and destination agent.

Enterprises produce increasingly vast volumes of data and demand its broad availability that challenges products to deliver high reliability, disaster protection, and real-time access without degrading enterprise application performance. The ability to query the most up-to-date data with reporting and analysis tools is increasingly critical for companies as they strive to gain deeper and faster insight into their dynamic business.
Conventional reporting methods place a high server load on critical databases systems. As a result, creating reports from the transactional system is usually kept to a minimum. Although applications for reporting and analysis may target replica databases instead of directly taxing the application source database, traditional replication methods, which may have significant data lag between the source and target, are typically hours or even days out of synchronization with the content of the master database.
Conventional disaster recovery systems utilize a secondary site, in stand-by mode, that is refreshed on a batch or interval basis. If a disaster occurs, the secondary site must be taken out of stand-by mode and placed in active mode, and an integrity check is performed on the database prior to bringing the application environment back online. As a result there can be a significant time lag between disaster and recovery, as well as, significant data loss due to the batch or interval refresh of the secondary site causing a time lag between the primary site updates and the last secondary site update before the disaster.
For most database management systems, transactions are logged to transaction files in binary format after the database operation has been committed to the database.
It would be desirable to provide real-time data replication for relational databases, enabling multiple databases to hold current and consistent data regardless of their physical location.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a system and method for real-time reporting without taxing transaction systems regardless of the number of queries.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a system and method for real-time data backup without stopping or interrupting the one or more applications running.
It is still a further object of the present invention to provide a system and method for immediate disaster recovery.
The problems of the prior art have been overcome by the present invention, which provides a system and method for sub-second data replication. The present invention provides the ability to replicate database transactions made on one computer to one or more local or remote computers instantly, utilizing the database management system's transaction log for the replication.
More specifically, in a conventional database application, the user's client application sends transactions to the database server. The database management system first commits the transaction to the database's storage medium then writes the transactions to its "transaction log". The transaction log maintains a record of all activity associated with the database. In the event that the database fails, this log file can be used to reconstruct the contents of the database. The present invention interposes a simulated transaction log between the database management system and the database transaction log, thereby intercepting transactions being sent to a database's transaction log. It then interprets and copies the transactions to one or more replica servers, as well as to the original existing database transaction log. This enables real-time reporting without taxing the transaction system, real-time backup and immediate disaster recovery, by offloading said activities from the transaction server to a replica server that synchronized with the transaction server in real-time. The invention is particularly applicable to an enterprise comprising one or more physically separate operating environments, each operating environment having a database server interfacing with one or more application servers, each database server having a transaction log adapted to receive a transaction from the database server.
In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the system comprises a central server and a set of source and destination agents that can reside all in a local system, or can be remotely connected such as through a TCP/IP network. The central server controls a series of loadable modules to perform specific functions in the system, and an agent that runs on every machine in the system that has a relational database management system running. The agent is either a source agent, gathering data from a source database server, or a destination (or target) agent, applying the data to the destination database, or both a source and destination agent.
Appendix 1 is pseudo code describing the specific code modules in the present invention.
The replication system of the present invention comprises four primary components, namely, a device driver, a source agent, a destination or target agent and a central hub or server.
A device driver consists of a set of routines that control a system device (i.e. hard drive, mouse, monitor, keyboard). A device driver is installed on the source database server to simulate a regular disk file or raw device on the source system's operating system. The important operations that can be performed on it are read, write and seek. The original transaction log files pre-existing in the source database are moved to another directory for disaster recovery purposes. This allows the same transaction log file names to be linked to the created device. Accordingly, when a new or updated transaction is written out to the transaction log file, the device driver is able to "intercept" the transactions, and the transaction is instead written out to the device driver, since the device driver is now posing as the original transaction log file. Thus, when the database manager attempts to write any transaction step to the log file, it is instead written to the device driver, which then places it in an in-memory queue for the source agent to read. When the source agent reads from the in-memory queue populated by the device driver, it writes the binary information contained in the queue to the central hub, it at the same time also writes a copy to the original transaction log files residing in the newly designated directory. In case of disaster, these newly designated transaction log files can be used to restore the database to its latest status since they are always in synchronization with the target replicated database.
Referring to Appendix 1, page 1, lines 30-60, this pseudo-code initializes the device driver and allocates the memory needed for data buffers. Page 2 explains the various actions of the device driver. The Read_from_Driver routine, lines 1-28, is executed when the Source Agent queries the device driver for new transactions. The routine simply copies the data passed to it by the database application to user space. The Seek_on_Driver routine, lines 30-44 and the Write_to_Driver routine, lines 46-55 are executed when the dB application accesses what it believes to be the transaction log. The device driver emulates the behavior of the log file so that the database application continucs to function as designed.
Turning now to
For example, for DB2, there are three transaction log files in the DB2 designated directory, namely, S0000000.LOG, S0000001 LOG and S0000002.LOG. The installer for this invention moves these files to a new directory and links them to the generated devices. Corresponding to the three log files, there are six devices, namely, /dev/paralleldb0 (master) and /dev/paralleldb1 (slave) for S0000000.LOG; /dev/paralleldb2 (master) and /dev/paralledb3 (slave) for S0000001 LOG; and /dev/paralleldb4 (master) and /dev/paralleldb5 (slave) for S0000002.LOG. The master devices are associated with their own section of memory buffers and they are the location where DB2 writes the transaction steps. In order to ensure that only it can manipulate the memory pointer in a memory buffer, the agent copies the memory buffer to another section of memory for each slave device. The agent read operation thus actually happens against the slave devices instead of the master devices.
The source agent and destination agent are also primary components of the present invention. The source agent resides on the transaction server whose database is to be replicated. The destination agent resides on the system that will replicate the database of the transaction server.
Initially during start-up of the system, the agents wait to be contacted by a central server, such as over a special TCP port. When a user creates a relationship on a central server that includes the server that the agent is residing in, as either a source or destination agent or both, the agent receives its configuration information including the identity of the central server, which database instance it will be using, and what its function will be (i.e., source, destination or both). The agent stores this data locally in a disk configuration database, so that the next time the agent is started, it will read from the disk configuration database and be able to start functioning immediately.
If the agent is acting as a source agent, it contacts the source database and (using native database calls) obtains information about the instance it will be replicating (e.g., table, column names, constraints, etc.). It then caches this information and forwards it, preferably via TCP, to the central server for use in the SQL translation process discussed in further detail below. The source agent then contacts the device driver to set a block, and waits to be notified of new data arriving in the driver.
Referring to Appendix 1, page 3, lines 20-32, the main thread of the agent continuously checks for requests from the replicator for information concerning connections or configuration information. Upon receiving such a request, it processes the request and returns the information to the replicator.
When the source agent is notified of the arrival of new data, it reads the transaction log file (in database transaction log proprietary format) and sends the transaction binary data to the central server. The source agent also is responsive to the central server, thereby enabling the central server to proceed with the database replication process as discussed in greater detail below. Each source agent is responsible for reading the transaction data from the device, via the device driver, so that it can be sent to the central server replicator. The source agent is also responsible for saving data to the original (pre-existing) transaction log files in the designated area. This is preferably carried out while the source agent is sending the transaction data to the replicator component of the central server. In the event of a disaster, the original transaction log files are always ready to be used to recover the database to its latest status without requiring an integrity check.
Referring to Appendix 1, pg. 3, lines 34-45 the source agent contains a Source thread and a Queue thread. The Source Thread continuously checks the device driver for new IO. When a new command has been received, it copies the data to the local transaction log and also places this new data in the outbound queue. The Queue Thread, p. 3, line 54 to p. 4, line 8, continuously checks the queue for new entries. Upon receipt, it sends the IO to the replicator, and waits for an acknowledgment from the replicator. When it receives the acknowledgment, the IO is removed from the queue. If the acknowledgement is not received, the entry will remain in the queue and will be retried later. This behavior is critical in order to guarantee delivery and therefore allow the invention to survive network outages and power outages.
Each target or destination agent is responsible for receiving the SQL commnands sent by the central hub or server, and applying them to the destination database. Specifically, each destination agent sets up a connection to the destination database, and awaits data, preferably via a TCP socket, from the central server. When data are received by the destination agent, the data have already been translated by the central server into a generic language (e.g., ANSI SQL format). The destination agent applies the data, using OCI or CLI, for example, to the destination database. The translation by the central server can be particularly important, since by converting to a generic language, the use of the system and method of the present invention is not limited by the databases involved. Those skilled in the art will appreciate, however, that where all databases involved recognize the same language (e.g., they are from the same manufacturer), the central server could be used in a pass through mode where translation to a generic language is not necessary.
Referring to Appendix 1, page 4 lines 10-17, the Destination Thread continuously polls for new SQL commands from the replicator. Upon receipt of a command, it applies it to the target database via a native database connection. Once the operation has been successfully performed, it returns an acknowledge to the replicator, signaling to the hub that this command can be removed from the queue.
The central hub is composed of three major components: the Management Console, the Controller and the Replicator.
The Management Console is for configuration. Preferably configuration is carried out via a web browser, and the Management Console is both an HTTP server and a Web-based graphical user interface (GUI) responsible for hosting the HTML management console and supporting customer actions directed from the console GUI. Through the Web GUI, users can define source/destination agents relationships and specify locations of the transaction log files and devices. The Management Console also provides a management interface to control the running processes of the Replicator, Controller and Management Console itself.
The Management Console provides two sets of operations, namely, the Server Tasks and the Database Relationships. The Server Tasks allow the user to turn on or off processes of the Replicator, Controller and the Management Console. The Database Relationships allow the user to add, modify or delete the source and target database relationships. Once a relationship is added to the system, it is stored in a local Indexed Sequential Access Memory (ISAM) database and then the appropriate agents are contacted (e.g., via TCP) to set up the replication. The source agents then sends information to the central server about the instance they are monitoring. This information is cached on the central server for use in the SQL translation process.
Referring to Appendix 1, page 4, lines 29-44, the main thread continuously polls for new console commands and acts upon them as required.
The Controller is responsible for communicating with the agents in the system, i.e., sending relationship changes to the source and destination agents, and acting on the user configuration changes sent from the Management Console and notifying the involved agents of the changes.
The Replicator is the hub for the entire database replication process. It is responsible for the caching of the database schema in a binary tree (B-tree), converting transaction steps from binary to ANSI SQL commands, sending the ANSI SQL commands to all destination agents, and handling replication against multiple database instances. The transaction binary log data are composed of a continuous stream of schema or catalog information, tables and records. Internal to the database management system, each table is represented by numbers, i.e., table 1, table 2, etc. Internally, the database management system also represents the fields in a record by numbers, i.e., field 1, field 2, etc. When the Replicator reads a table number or field number, it makes requests to the source agent and asks for the table name or the field name. The source agent queries the database management system to determine the name of the table or field represented by the number. Upon receiving the response from the source agent, the Replicator caches the table name or field name into a B-tree. The Replicator parses the incoming transaction binary log data, converts them to a string of SQL commands. The Replicator inspects the incoming log data, looking for transaction/operation terminators to determine what the complete transaction was. It then sends the resultant SQL commands to one or more destination agent, such as via TCP sockets, that are identified as a target of that instance in a relationship.
Referring to Appendix 1, page 5, lines 12-39, the Source Agent Thread gets incoming log information from the source agent. Then, after receiving a terminator, converts the binary log information into SQL commands, and then queues these commands for each destination. Once this is completed, an acknowledgment is sent to the Source Agent, allowing it to remove this item from its queue.
The Destination Agent Thread, p. 4, line 53 to p. 5, line 10, monitors the queue for new SQL commands, and sends these commands to the destination. Once an acknowledgment is received from the destination, the item is removed from the queue. This is done to guarantee successful delivery even in the presence of network outages. There can be multiple instantiations of this thread to allow multiple destination replicas of the source database.
The user may choose to encrypt the resultant SQL commands before sending them to the destination agents to maintain the secrecy of the data. For example, if the destination agent is located on a server accessed via TCP/IP across the Internet, encryption can be used to insure the confidentiality of the information. At the user's discretion the SQL commands can also be compressed to minimize network traffic originating from the central hub.
The system is able to handle multiple threads of source/destination relationships because the Replicator maintains a linked list of converted SQL commands for each relationship thread. The SQL commands in the linked list are consumed by sending them out to the destination agent.
Underlying all of the components of the system of the present invention is an operating system translation layer, which implements both operating system primitives (semaphores, spinlocks, queues, etc.) and base level functions such as networking primitives (socket support, pipes, etc.). This layer also helps implement a key feature of the architecture, guaranteed network transport delivery. That is, all of the components in the system simply carry out a TCP send to pass data between components. The translation networking layer then queues that data (including a physical on-disk backup) and continues to forward the data to its destination until a confirmation is received. This guaranteed delivery will survive network outages, power outages and most system failures.
Another important feature of this invention is its ability to continue to operate and assist in disaster recovery. Referring to
The recovery process is still possible even when there is only one destination database. In that case, when primary database 2 fails, the operator must intervene to bring a new backup machine online. Those skilled in the art can appreciate that there are a number of ways in which to copy the contents of database 9 a onto the new backup machine. Once that is completed, the destination agent 8 a is reconfigured to be a source agent, and the agent in the new backup machine is the destination agent. As above, the central replicator relays SQL commands to the destination agent.
In a second embodiment, shown in
It is also possible to combine various elements of this invention in an attempt to minimize system components.

This Palermo Hollywood locale is one of the most consistent choices in this neighborhood, where new restaurants come and go all the time. It's also well located near hot-spot bars and clubs. The white wood floors and white walls are contrasted with shiny black tables and a softly illuminated wall that creates an intimate, if sometimes overly snug, environment. The menu is small, but each dish is well prepared, including a tasty entrana (skirt steak) as well as colorful sushi platters made to order at the bar in the back. Expect a hip crowd of varying ages; if you're coming with a large group, ask for a table in the covered garden patio.

"The execution of our strategy includes the previously announced sale of our Alberta imaging operations for $17 million, which closed on November 5th, allowing us to redeploy our capital into other opportunities with more attractive growth trajectory," continued Mr. Wellner. "From a growth perspective, we are also in the process of successfully integrating the acquisition of Hemostasis Reference Laboratory which provides us with attractive non-government pay service offerings to global customers in the areas of specialized coagulation testing. I am also excited about our recent launch of COLOGIC, an innovative and simple blood test to screen for colorectal cancer, which will allow us to further diversify our payor base," said Mr. Wellner. "We have a significant pipeline of new business opportunities, some of which are emanating from our previously announced partnership with MaRS Innovation that gives us priority access to over $1 billion of innovative healthcare research." Financial Results for Three Months Ended September 30, 2012 On October 2, 2012, CML announced the sale of its Alberta diagnostic imaging services comprising nine clinics in the province. Under International Financial Reporting Standards, current and prior year results related to this business have been reclassified as discontinued operations. Revenues for the quarter were $85.5 million, a decline of 2.9% from the prior year. This decline reflects the previously announced Ontario MOHLTC reimbursement rate cuts which reduced third quarter revenues by $1.3 million compared to the same period in the prior year and $1.6 million in retroactive diagnostic imaging technical fee reimbursements recorded in Q3 2011 that were not recognized in the current year. Cost of Services for the quarter were $52.5 million, an increase of 3.3% over the third quarter of 2011. This change reflects general inflationary increases in staffing costs, partially offset by decreases in medical professional fees related to lower revenues in the current quarter.General and administrative ("G&A") expenses for the third quarter were $11.9 million, an increase of 23.6% over the prior year reflecting higher staffing costs and increased depreciation and amortization.Net earnings and EPS from continuing operations for the third quarter were $13.5 million and $0.15 compared to $17.7 million and $0.20 in the prior year respectively. Lower interest expenses and incomes taxes in the current year partially offset in the decline in EBITDA1 in the quarter.AFFO3 from continuing operations for the third quarter were $7.5 million compared to $18.2 million in the prior year. The decline is due primarily to lower net earnings from continuing operations in the quarter as well as $4.5 million increase in tax payments compared to the same period in 2011. As well, AFFO3 in the quarter and in the prior year include net change in non-cash working capital items of $5.9 million and $6.6 million respectively, which are temporary uses of cash. Financial Results for Nine-Months Ended September 30, 2012 Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, were $265.4 million, an increase of 0.5% from the prior year. This increase reflects $4.4 million in net additional Ontario MOHLTC funding and $1.3 million incremental non-cap revenue from lab and imaging. These increases were partially offset by $2.8 million in Ontario MOHLTC reimbursement rate cuts to certain tests and $1.6 million in retroactive diagnostic imaging technical fee reimbursements recognized in 2011 not applicable in 2012.EBITDA1 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $81.8 million, a decline of 8.3% from the prior year. The decline reflects higher cost of services and G&A expenses in the current year associated with higher staffing costs and increased medical professional fees, supplies, and other variable costs associated with increased volumes. Net earnings and EPS from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were $45.4 million and $0.50 compared to $47.7 million and $0.53 respectively in 2011. Lower interest and restructuring expenses in 2012 partially offset the lower EBITDA1. AFFO3 from continuing operations for nine months ended September 30, 2012 of $28.1 million was lower than $57.0 million for the same period in 2011. The decline reflects a $29.4 million increase in income taxes paid in 2012 compared to 2011. Balance Sheet The Company had a cash balance of $2.4 million as at September 30, 2012, compared to $50.6 million as at December 31, 2011 and $13.4 million as at June 30, 2012. The decline in cash balance compared to December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012 was primarily due to debt repayment of $26.5 million and $3.0 million respectively, as well as income tax payment of $29.5 million, $16.3 million of which reflect 2011 income taxes paid in the first quarter of 2012. Long-term debt including the current portion of $272.3 million as at September 30, 2012 was lower than $275.4 million, as at the end of Q2 2012, and lower than $299.8 million as at December 31, 2011. As at September 30, 2012, the Company had approximately $128 million available under the revolving credit facility and 89,842,397 common shares issued and outstanding.

EBITDA margins are calculated by dividing EBITDA by revenue. EBITDA is not a recognized measure under IFRS. Management believes that, in addition to net earnings, EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure, as it provides investors with an indication of the Company's performance. EBITDA is used by the Company to analyze performance and compare profitability between periods. Investors should be cautioned, however, that EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings determined in accordance with IFRS. The Company's method of calculating EBITDA may differ from other companies and, accordingly, EBITDA may not be comparable to measures used by other companies.2 The Company defines EBT as earnings from continuing operations before income taxes. EBT is not a recognized measure under IFRS. Management believes that, in addition to net earnings, EBT is a useful supplemental measure, as it provides investors with an indication of the Company's performance. EBT is used by the Company to analyze operating performance. Investors should be cautioned, however, that EBT should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings determined in accordance with IFRS. The Company's method of calculating EBT may differ from other companies and, accordingly, EBT may not be comparable to measures used by other companies.3 Adjusted funds from continuing operations ("AFFO") is not a recognized measure under IFRS. AFFO is defined as cash flows from operating activities of continuing operations less purchases of property and equipment, proceeds from sale of property and equipment and licenses and acquisition of intangible assets. The Company uses this as a measure of financial performance, as an indicator of its cash flow strength, its ability to meet future operational and capital expenditure requirements and ability to pay dividends on the Company's common shares.Investors should be cautioned, however that adjusted funds from continuing operations should not be construed as an alternative to cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations determined in accordance with IFRS. The Company's method of calculating adjusted funds from continuing operations may differ from other companies and accordingly, adjusted funds from continuing operations may not be comparable to measures used by other Companies.Caution concerning forward-looking statementsThis document includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of certain securities laws, including the "safe harbour" provisions of the Securities Act (Ontario) and other provincial securities law in Canada.

Italian Lakes
Commune with nature where Italy is joined to the Alps, in the lovely Italian lakes district. In this land of lakes, the million-euro question is: Which one? For the best mix of accessibility, scenery, and offbeatness, the village of Varenna on Lake Como is my top choice, followed by sights on Lake Maggiore. In either place, you'll get a complete dose of Italian-lakes wonder and aristocratic-old-days romance. Bustling Milan, just an hour away from either lake, doesn't even exist. Now it's your turn to be chiuso per restauro (closed for restoration).

Blacksburg, Va. -- The Virginia Tech Wake Forest University's School of Biomedical Engineering and Science's Center for Injury Biomechanics has received the Army Modeling and Simulation Award for 2008.
The Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Army and Director of the Army presented the award for research that could ultimately help save eyesight and reduce morbidity and mortality associated with facial injury.
The center was selected from 57 applicants from around the nation for leading a team of researchers in the design of a new test dummy. The Virginia Tech team was lead by Stefan Duma, a professor of mechanical engineering in Virginia Tech's College of Engineering, and his graduate student Eric Kennedy, who is now an assistant professor at Bucknell University. Together Duma and Kennedy lead a three-year research effort that included key partners from the United States Army Aeromedical Research Laboratory of Ft. Rucker, Ala., as well as Denton Inc. of Detroit, Mich.
The Department of Defense commended the team for developing the Facial and Ocular Countermeasures Safety (FOCUS) headform. The FOCUS headform is a state-of-the-art physical model capable of measuring impact loads to the face and eyes and represents the beginning of the next generation of higher fidelity anatomical test devices.
The FOCUS headform provides Army materiel developers the ability to assess face and eye injury risk, determine the benefit of potential face and eye protection devices, and characterize any residual injury risk due to behind-armor effects or novel threats. This device will allow the development of standards for eye and face protection devices and has been favorably tested in explosive environments to characterize blast injury.
"In addition to benefiting the military, it is exciting to note that the FOCUS headform has civilian applications in automobile safety and sports biomechanics. For example, we are currently work

Night owls and early risers in North America will be able to watch a rare celestial show on Tuesday (April 15) as Earth's shadow falls across the moon, shifting its color from bright orange to blood red to brown, depending on local weather conditions.
"During a lunar eclipse the moon is going to be sitting in the shadow of the earth. It's sort of going to pass behind the earth, and the earth is going to block almost all of the sunlight from hitting the moon," Nasa scientist Shawn Domogal-Goldman, said.
"If you are looking from earth you are going to see our shadow sort of creep across the moon's surface until it totally blocks the moon. Now when that happens, the moon will appear red. The reason for that is the little bit of sunlight that does get through is going to be the same kind of sunlight we see at sunrise and sunset. It's red. And a way to think of this, is you are going to see all the sunrises and sunsets from all across the planet earth hitting the moon at the same time and then bouncing back down to earth for us to get a really beautiful shot of the moon tonight, during the eclipse," he added.
The lunar eclipse unfolded over three hours beginning at 06.58 BST when the moon begins moving into Earth's shadow. A little more than an hour later, the moon was fully eclipsed and shrouded in a red glow.
The celestial show was over by 10.33 BST according to NASA.

Learn more about Jailbait Zombie:
|Felix Gomez, Latino vampire detective extraordinaire, battles zombies, gangsters, and a precocious wannabe bloodsucker, in this fourth entry in Acevedo''s bitingly satirical, bestselling series.
From the Publisher:
Private Investigator Felix Gomez thought he had seen it all since becoming a vampire: horny aliens, maniacal nymphos. But now he's facing everyone's worst nightmare.
As far as being undead goes, vampires are indisputably the more civilized-intelligent, rational (on occasion), good conversationalists. Zombies, on the other hand, are just violent, walking, rotting, flesh-eating meat with no redeeming qualities. And now there's a ravenous army of them heading this way.
So it's vamps versus zombies, round one. And Felix's only hope of stopping the stinking, hungry horde is a pre-cocious and much-too-hot-for-her-britches teenager with clairvoyant powers. But she's not going to help unless Felix agrees to make her immortal.

Finding the Polluters: A Step Toward Accountability on Global Warming
A new EPA web tool documents global warming pollution from about 6,700 facilities across the United States, filling a critical gap in the public's right to know about pollution. Polluters have been required to report on toxic chemical emissions for years, but in 2010, for the first time, big industrial polluters were asked to provide information on emissions of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping pollutants.
Why is this important? For those of us who track this issue every day, the data is unsurprising. Power plants are far and away the biggest emitters of global warming pollution, responsible for nearly 75 percent of the pie. But making the information specific, local, and easily accessible for the public brings the issue of global warming out of the clouds, so to speak, and down to earth. Knowing who the polluters are, and where they're located, is the first step toward holding them accountable.
Say you live in Texas, where you're going through the most severe drought in state history (one of the predicted consequences of global warming), and you take a look at the data which shows that Texas is the biggest emitter of global warming pollution in the nation, and then maybe you zoom in on the map and see the emissions from a cluster of refineries outside of Houston, or you look at the emissions from your local power plant and see that another plant of a similar size somewhere else is much cleaner, then suddenly this vague image of a blanket of invisible gas in the atmosphere has now become some very concrete numbers pinpointed to your neighborhood.
Then maybe you starting connecting the dots between pollution and climate and drought, and suddenly global warming--and how to stop it--doesn't seem so vague any more. Imagine if each of those polluters on the map was replaced with a clean energy facility. (Take a look at NRDC's renewable energy map for a look at how our clean energy future is shaping up.)
In a few weeks, the EPA is expected to issue its first rules governing global warming pollution from new power plants. Existing plants, of course, are a much bigger and thornier issue, but seeing the agency charged with protecting our health finally beginning to hold these polluters accountable is a welcome change.
Just as clean car regulations are spurring innovation in the automobile industry, and just as the publication of the "toxic release inventory" in the 1980s spurred widespread public understanding and voluntary actions by companies to reduce toxic pollution, this first attempt to establish safeguards on global warming pollution could help hasten the move from old, dirty energy to the clean, renewable energy of the future.

Edward Kerr says:
It occurs to me that we need look no further than our bathroom mirror to find who the polluters are. Now that we know that CO2 levels in the atmosphere are a serious matter of concern regarding the global climate and are our fault, we have all become "accessories after the fact". Ironically, if it turns out that we completely destabilize the earths climate, then it will be "Mother Nature" herself that will hold us all accountable.
A sad and scary thought to be sure but every action (or inaction) has it's consequences. If our actions aimed at reversing this CO2 situation (which border on inaction) remain as feeble as they are then we will get what we deserve. That is we adults who can do something. Our children and grandchildren, on the other hand, will get what no one deserves. It's up to us.
A guest says:
"Power plants are far and away the biggest emitters of (the 4% of suspected) global warming pollution (which is of anthropogenic origin), responsible for nearly 75 percent of the (anthropogenic CO2 ) pie."
US anthropogenic CO2 emissions are ~16% of global anthropogenic CO2 emissions; and, that percentage is declining.
Asian anthropogenic CO2 emissions are ~50% of global anthropogenic CO2 emissions; and, that percentage is increasing.
CO2 is a globally well mixed trace gas. There is no local/state/regional/national solution to a global "problem" CO2 might cause.
|More coming soon...
"In that case I do wish that the EPA would take Global Warming seriously. A 30% improvement, by 2030, in just the coal burning CO2 emissions is far too little. I think that the official position was that the improved efficiency was not intended to imply a reduction in the coal industry's output. That is plain ridiculous. If ALL the USA's coal burning ceased, and all 1000 million tons of US coal ..."
