There have been very rough climate conditions in the past several years including heat waves and dry conditions which do not create a good scenario for carbon-dioxide emissions, but something remarkable has happened. Carbon-dioxide emissions have been at their lowest levels in over twenty years (1). According to records from the U.S. Energy Information Agency, there was over an 8 million ton decline from the time in 2007 to 2012 (1). This is a huge decrease and it is most likely correlated to the country’s switch to natural gas which has over a 45 percent decrease in damaging emissions compared to dirtier energy sources (1). This cleaner switch has been crucial for the recent record low emission levels.

In the recession that we are currently experiencing, the people that are the most affected are those that are living paycheck to paycheck.

The production of olive oil in Spain has been stinted due a drought, “reduc[ing] total global output by around 20% compared with a year ago.” The drought caused a decrease in supply of olive oil (fig. 1). This leads to the increase in price of olive oil from P1 to P2, while the quantity supplied and quantity demanded decreases from Q1 to Q2. Over the past three months, this increase has been so rapid that prices have risen by over 50%, and is speculated increase will continue. For Spain, this may be a disadvantage, but other countries see this as an opportunity to shine in the olive oil market.
