A company named Ecology and Environment, Inc. helps global firms devise solutions that promote global sustainable economic and human development with minimal environmental impact. It was announced on Friday, August 6th, 2010, that the company has begun a new campaign called “Project Earth” to help students at schools around the world share ecologically focused projects and ideas and promote the Earth’s natural ecosystems happily coexisting with human cultures. The goal of the project is to bring people together to learn about and find solutions to global environmental challenges. This is a great project that is important to global business because it is spreading awareness and educating people who live in countries all over the world. It is also important that children are taught about the growing environmental concern and climate changes as the sustainability to the planet is so important for them. After all, they will be the leaders of our future. See the attached article below.

The United States: Still an Influence
As I was researching Foreign Markets an article from Bloomberg Businessweek caught my attention. The article titled, "Demand for U.S. Assets Increases More Than Forecast (Update2)", was a breath of fresh air. After constantly hearing about the United States falling behind in Global Markets and China nearing the lead, it was nice to read a positive article about a demand for United States assets and global investment.
Investors in the United Kingdom, China and Japan all increased their holdings of U.S. treasuries. An increase has happened every month for the past several months. This is good news for the recovering United States economy. The investments show that other countries still have confidence in the United States and that the United States is still strong. After all, the United States is still the world's largest economy.
