Happy New Year Orblers.

Hope you all have a good one and don't break your New Years Resolutions before the first day is dawned

Here is a list of what Commsec sees as the biggest Economic and Social Issues for 2008, yet again Climate Change is at the top of the list.

2007 was an awesome year for Australians and their contirbution to Climate change solutions as well as general awareness. We should all be happy that we ar eon the page to continue this increasing awareness in 2008.

The story is below.


Have a good one, don't drink too much bubbly

Economic outlook 2008: climate change will dominate


Climate change is expected to be the big issue for 2008, dominating public consciousness, affecting company strategies and influencing other issues such as development of alternative energy sources.

At CommSec we also believe that the apparent trade-off between inflation and unemployment will come under increased scrutiny in 2008. Unemployment rates in a range of industrialised countries are at 33-year lows and skilled labour shortages are increasingly appearing.

The big issues will change somewhat between 2007 and 2008, as summarised in the table below CLICK HERE FOR TABLE.

PS Replacing aging, outmoded World War II infrastructure in cities, whilst you are also paying for war and the welfare of aging populations, is not only extremely expensive, but almost technically impossible, too.
