There is available, in many sources (internet based and non-internet based) commentary criticizing the major corporations and leading nations in their drive for competitiveness. This drive for competitiveness (through harvesting practices) has created vulnerable situations for water management  (river and lakes drying up) agriculture  soil erosion (caused by large scale mining and tree harvesting) soil depletion requiring excessive use of fertilizers and other chemicals metals and mining rare metals such as Cobalt are being dug out and used for advanced smartphones - and the mining of such minerals has large effects on the land and wildlife where these mines are located, such as the jungles of the Congo where gorillas live forestry  trees being cut down at a rate faster than replanting and regrowth large forest fires effect safety for people livingf close, and smoke and ash clouds effect health of people living in the region It is hard to be objective on this issue since some people claim we have reached a point in the history of the planet where the existence of the human species is at risk!! The topic of sustainable development, has become increasingly "public" as a news topic and therefore important for students in international business

Pic from Associated Press, as quoted in a story in indiatoday.in https://www.indiatoday.in/ science/story/cananda- atmospheric-river-storm- climate-change-floods- mudslides-british-columbia- 1879479-2021-11-22   In November of 2021 a number of well known newspapers around the world began their story of the flooding in B.C. with words similar to "As climate change intensifies, extreme events are becoming more frequent and more damaging. Canada is ...". It is suggested (WTGR) that a different way of seeing this problem is not to look at climate change, but rather to look at human population change - more specifically the change in "where" humans are moving to work, and life. for Wed July 6th  09:50         Section SCC for Wed July 6th  2:25pm      Section SBB for Fri  July 8th   08:55pm     Section DD for Fri  July 8th  12:35pm      Section SAA "I am  not a climatologist, but I wonder if the problem is not a suspected increase in climate "events", but rather a problem of millions of people around the world moving from rural areas, to large cities, as "economic refugees", not climate refugees - resulting in a large increase in the number of people being effected by a flood, hurricane, earthquake etc." WTGR Nov 2021

Chpt 13 Pitfalls of Exporting

Potential Disadvantages of Exporting (Pitfalls of Exporting) did  Wed SDD Apr 13 did Wed SBB Apr 13 for Thu SCC Apr 14 ---    Fri  SAA Apr 15 no class on Fri Apr 15th Why would you discuss Disadvantages of Exporting in a course which spends most of the time discussing how to export? Answer: because the course (MRK460, MGSC44, IBM600) is not, strictly speaking, "how to export". Sometimes managers need to make decisions about whether to pursue a new situation, or not: what we call a GO - NO GO decision. For the purposes of saving money and running the company efficiently, sometimes it is better to NOT GO - that is to say NOT export because the cost might be too high, or you may be consuming resources you don't have - it might be better to concentrate on making money on your "regular" business. Deciding NOT to export doesn't mean your company is not involved in international business  you can still be involved in importing, directly, or indirectly  and therefore international business circumstances (currency fluctuations, political risk etc.) will still effect you  you may be manufacturing a device that depends on a supplier being able to manufacture a sub-component in a global region that becomes risky the sub-component could be identified by a foreign government as a target for tariffs which may effect your production cost

Chpt 13 LCs Letters of Credit

Letters of Credit witiger.com/internationalbusiness/LCs.htm did  Wed SDD Apr 13 for Wed SBB Apr 13 for Thu SCC Apr 14 ---    Fri  SAA Apr 15 no class on Fri Apr 15th The subject of LCs is not normally something you would teach in a general overview course on Global Marketing and Business  - but for some people who are interested in actually becoming involved in exporting and importing, LCs are a necessary thing which you must understand.. Common Problems with Letters of Credit One of the things that is important for students of management to understand about business and international business is that the "real world" very seldom operates as precisely as the theory in the classroom. In the real world, there are often problems with "satisfying" the requirements of an LC on the side of the sender (seller), and the receiver (buyer). If an LC is irrevocable (meaning the credit cannot be amended or canceled without the agreement of all parties) then the buyer may have a big problem if something develops that they cannot fix - because the 3rd party will be obliged to pass the money to the seller once the goods are landed.

"Letters of Credit are guarantees of payment to help you make purchases or transact business with companies with whom you have limited trading experience or credit history." wachovia.com

Brands in int'l markets fo Country Image  Effects on Branding

In this article, Prof. Richardson is discussing the challenges of developing a "Canadian Brand" for the clothing industry. In addressing this formidable challenge, Richardson explains that the ability to do this depends on how we can deal with the influences of the    o  competitive environment   o  social / cultural environment   o  technological environment   o  political / legal / regulatory environment   o  economic environment   o  geographic environment Richardson explains that these environments make it difficult for Canada to consider having a global brand for clothing similar to the Italians or French, instead it is recommended that we "embrace" the extreme weather challenges of our geographic environment and "brand" Canadian clothing as being the most robust and strong for cold weather.
