LONDON air max 97 bianche uomo , April 14 (Xinhua) -- British Secretary of State for Scotland Alistair Carmichael on Monday said British government's measures to back Scottish businesses are working, stressing that it is good for Scottish business and families if the region remains part of Britain.
"Scotland is doing well as part of the UK. Large employers in Scotland from the oil and gas industry to the retail sector are saying that being part of the large and diverse UK Single Market is good for business," Carmichael said.
He added that "the creation of more new jobs shows that being part of the UK is good for hard working Scots and their families."
His remarks came after Bank of Scotland's latest PMI (Purchasing Managers Index) report for March showed that the region's employment has been on the rise for 16 straight months, with manufacturing orders increasing and cost inflation falling to a 54-month low.
"Today's PMI index provides very encouraging signs for both businesses and individuals in Scotland, as the economic recovery is getting more and more embedded," the Scottish secretary noted.
Citing the British Treasury's analysis published last week air max 97 nere uomo , he warned that an independent Scotland would have the second highest fiscal deficit of all advanced economies in its first year of independence.
"On the back of more encouraging signs for Scottish businesses, why should we gamble it all on independence when the Scottish Government has no plans on currency, on pensions and on EU membership?" he asked, dismissing the Scottish government's bid to walk away from Britain.
With fewer than 200 days to go before the referendum on Sept. 18 this year, London and Edinburgh have been wrangling to win supporters for their respective agendas over Scotland's future.
The Scottish government has been campaigning for Scotland's independence which it says can create a "more democratic, more prosperous and fairer" society for Scotland.
British Prime Minister David Cameron and Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond signed the Edinburgh Agreement in October 2012 to allow Scotland to hold the independence referendum this year.
BEIJING nike air max 97 nere , March 18 (Xinhua) -- China's forests and associated industries are the latest state-owned sector to be enlivened by reform, as China marches toward a better, greener future.
The state forestry sector, previously devoted almost exclusively to wood production, is to be turned on its head with restoration of the embattled environment moving to the top of the agenda.
It was announced on Tuesday evening that by 2020, commercial logging of state forests will be reduced by about 20 percent and total forests increased by more than 6.6 million hectares http://www.airmax97offerta.it/ , an area more than twice the size of Belgium. Forest growing stock will increase by more than one billion cubic meters.
Forest zones will receive government grants when they stop logging to encourage green industries such as tourism and to create environmentally friendly jobs.
RECEDING TREE LINE
Along with advances in politics, economics, culture and society, the restoration and protection of the natural environment is vital to plans for China's future.
China has 4,855 state forests, about 40 percent of the total forest area nike air max 97 offerta , employing around 750,000 people directly. These figures mean very little when you take into account that China's per-capita forest area and growing stock are only 25 percent and 14 percent of world average levels.
Useable forest resources have been decreasing since the 1980s, due mainly to excessive logging, and today, many forest enterprises struggle to survive. The country now relies heavily on imports just to meet domestic demand.
Many important forests in northeast China and Inner Mongolia, the traditional heartland of China's forests nike air max 97 saldi , are young and their resources are gradually running out, said Wang Yuehua of the State Forestry Administration. Edges of forests in the Hinggan Mountains have retreated northward by more than 100 km, while wetlands have reduced by more than half, Wang said.
"Steps to reduce logging mark a new era in protection of state forests," he said.
THE FORESTERS' LAST STAND
On March 10, after cutting their last stand of trees nike air max 97 scontate , workers' team No. 803 in the Greater Hinggan Mountain forest in Inner Mongolia, laid down their saws and axes forever.
After more than 60 years, the Greater Hinggan Mountain forest zone in Inner Mongolia, the country's largest, is scheduled to stop commercial logging on April 1.
The process of ending logging completely began in Heilongjiang Province. According to Tuesday's forest reform plan, commercial logging of natural forests will also cease in Inner Mongolia and Jilin Province.
"Stopping production is an inflexible requirement for the sake of our offspring. Forest workers support the decision Scarpe Puma Rihanna Pelle Creepers Bianche ," said Han Changjun, Party chief of A'nan Forest in Inner Mongolia.
To help forest workers find new jobs, we will increase our edible fungus business and look for other means of exploiting our special resources, said Han.
Zhang Xueqin, chair of Inner Mongolia Forest Industry Group, said the end of logging means an end to 1.1 million cubic meters of wood production and affects about 10 Puma Rihanna Suede Creepers Grigie Argento ,000 workers. The area is developing new forest products and tourism projects to employ the workers who have been laid off, he added.
Pilot forest projects have been successful in other places. Forests in Huichang County, Jiangxi Province were seriously over-exploited in the
1990s, but things began to change in 2009. One forest began to focus on environmental restoration, one on cultivation and a third became a nature reserve. Growing stock in the county had risen to 1.3 million cubic meters by 2013 from 1.1 million cubic meters in 2009, when the reform began.
