Although, apparently not
providing commercial incentive for any business corporation to want
to undertake as a venture, a recently
proffered GHG
effects remediation technology offers efficacious removal of the
carbon dioxide already in the atmosphere and hence the possibility
of actually supporting the incremental reversal of the effect of GHG
on the world climate. Notwithstanding, the implementation of the
technology is essential towards addressing the concerns of Global
Warming and the need to remediate the potential impact. An issue that comes up almost
immediately is the matter of implementation of the technology.
The implementation of such technology therefore need be assumed by
World Bodies in the interest of the general welfare of humanity, as
suggested.
Obviously, if the project as a
result of the technology can not be projected as profitable, then the
implementation of the project would not be borne by any commercial
venture that must report to its associates. The fact is that such
undertaking would be an anathema to one component of the
mission statement of all business corporations.
Technology Implementation
Clearly because of the geographical scope involved in
tackling the implementation, a detailed construction of a set of
criteria should be beneficial, and with some consideration the following
criteria for entity qualification for implementation obtain:
|
Entity
Qualification |
Not-for-profit
Ability to cross nation boundary
Have access to money
Have conviction of responsibility |
The further delineation of
these criteria is informative in eliciting the need for the criteria
contents.
First and fore most the
default case, where the choice implementation entity shall be immune
from the state of profitability of the project, justifies the choice
of a not-for-Profit organization.
In view of the global nature
of the problem and the impact of atmospheric dynamics in
transporting the GHG from region to region, the implementation of
the technology must necessarily be global to
|
counteract the effect of
the wind transport; this need, of course, places implicit demands that
the implementation entity must also have the capability to cross
national boundaries with minimal effort, as per the second
criterion.The constituent technologies
of the remediation technologies indisputably is anticipated to be
capital intensive as will also be the implementation. hence the
implementation entity must have the capacity to finance the
project or have access to entity (ies) with capital as to have the
project financed. the source of funds must also be able, albeit
collectively, to support over-runs as such projects are likely to be
and usually are.
Conviction of responsibility
has always driven people to complete tasks that are assumed. hence
the implementation entity must have conviction of responsibility as
to complete the task for every regional sector of the global without
bias or prejudice. This is an essential requirement given that a
poorly implemented project is bound to invariably impact the whole
world through the redistributive effect of the atmospheric dynamics
of transport as earlier indicated.
Furthermore, some of the
technology components from which the remediation technology was
integrated are under or prospectively under the intellectual
property rights ownership of the United States Government, as these
were developed in national laboratories. hence the use of those
technologies in the integrated form requires licensing from the
United States Government, a task that can only be undertaken by
governmental agencies of some form.
Indeed, from all indications
the best suited entity for this project is the United Nations or a
representative of the UN contracted to undertake or oversee the
implementation of such a global project. Undoubtedly, the UN or its
representative contractors may be able to manage the project under
the United nations Millennium Development Program with particular
consideration for environmental degradation prevention.
Mechanics of Implementation
The
implementation of such projects under
UN assignment to NGOs, familiar with the regions and involved in
other regional projects, also may be just as efficacious in meeting
the criteria.
