(iii) Using administrative data sources.

At its fortieth session, in 2003, the Scientific and Technical Subcommittee of the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space adopted a work plan, for the period 2003 2006, for developing an international technically based framework of goals and recommendations for the safety of nuclear power source (NPS) applications in outer space (A AC.105 804, annex III).

34 (XXI) Rationalization and increased efficiency of energy and the use of renewable sources of energy

(b) To establish general trends in the use of space NPS

(a) Radioisotope NPS as sources of power, heat and ionizing radiation

The view was expressed that, whenever possible, alternative power sources should be used for space missions and the use of NPS should be restricted to a minimum of a few exceptions.

The papers by national and regional space agencies on NPS use in space programmes confirmed the relevance and validity of space NPS applications.

It is also women who suffer the disproportionate health impacts of unsustainable energy sources.

Another option is to use reliable and respected sources of information.

The most renewables intensive places in the world are also the poorest. Africa gets almost 50 of its energy from renewables, compared to just 8 for the OECD.

Considering that it is necessary to prevent the use of information resources or technologies for criminal or terrorist purposes,

Considering that it is necessary to prevent the use of information resources or technologies for criminal or terrorist purposes,

There have also been decrees to increase forest coverage, promote the rational use of pastureland, prevent desertification and promote the use of renewable energy sources.

Using alternative energy sources such as solar cooking and electrical heating is effective, as is using fuels such as kerosene or coal rather than biomass.

The initiatives aimed to build capacity, identify new sources of funding and promote the use of local knowledge and scientific management.

The view was expressed that work being carried out on the use of NPS should not be restricted only to the use of NPS in deep space.

Limited energy development in Africa has resulted in one of the lowest uses of modern energy sources in the world.

The FAO's report highlights the need to develop sustainable energy sources and to promote the use of fossil fuels and solar energy.

The following technical presentation on the subject of the use of NPS in outer space was made to the Subcommittee Space nuclear power source technology development pathways for enabling future space exploration , by the representative of the United States.

We need to use energy far more wisely while shifting from fossil fuels to low carbon energy sources.

In the case that the tables does not provide a conservativeness factor for a given source sink category, a conservativeness factor for a source category with similar characteristics should be used.

The ESA space research programme points out the importance of using radioisotope and reactor NPS (NPU or NPPU) but does not specify the actual types of NPS or their parameters or offer solutions to safety issues.

Current funding levels had to be maintained and new sources of funding secured, and funds had to be used in the most cost effective way.

And so this is framing lumber, composite materials and it's kind of hard to get the embodied energy out of that, but it can be a sustainable resource if you use FSC certified lumber.

After WWII, America was able to use soft power resources and co opt others into a set of alliances and institutions that lasted sixty years.

In general, we support the appeal to consider the possibility in the longer term of using innovative sources of financing for development in compliance with the letter and spirit of the Monterrey.

(a) It contained no plans to use radioisotope space NPS but focused on using reactor NPS (NPUs and NPPUs)

The NASA paper considered the possibilities and advantages opened up by the use of space NPS inasmuch as their characteristics and parameters were independent of conditions in space.

Funds are needed to invest in new low carbon energy sources, reforestation and protection of rain forests, land use changes, and adaptation and mitigation.

Others declare that we must kick the fossil fuel habit and make a mad dash for renewable energy sources such as solar or wind power.

Global renewables will most likely increase by roughly 1.5 percentage points, to 14.5 by 2035.

Some parents choose to monitor their students' usage of the internet, as some of the sites may be found deceptive or inappropriate by academic institutions.

The international community must make a much more serious commitment to renewable energy, efficiency, and other environmentally friendly energy sources. A business as usual approach would mean that by 2030 carbon dioxide emissions would be 70 higher than today, and renewable energy would account for a mere 4 of total energy usage, up from 2 now.

The view was expressed that the use of nuclear power sources in outer space or in orbit was inappropriate and should therefore be limited to exceptional cases only.

One highly technical subject of concern to the Scientific and Technical Subcommittee was the use of nuclear power sources in outer space.

This situation results in scarcity of fuelwood and charcoal and pushes many farmers to use elementary forms of energy sources such as cow dung and maize stoves

The United States space research programme, while providing for the use of reactor NPS (NPUs and NPPUs plus electrojet propulsion systems), does not contain specific information on the types or parameters of NPS or the means of ensuring their safety.

Acknowledging that increased use of new and renewable sources of energy could offer important options for the provision of energy for sustainable development and increased access to modern energy services,

In the energy area particular attention is given to the priority services rural energy for productive use with emphasis on renewable energy and energy efficiency .
