("Ukraine is on the brink of an ecological disaster.") Ukrainian Environmental League, Zhytomyr Regional Office, March 2006 In 1990, Ukraine emitted over 923,000 Gg of greenhouse gases into the atm- phere. Out of Annex I Parties to the Kyoto Protocol only United States, Russia, Japan and Germany reported higher pollution levels. Interestingly, annual em- sions in Ukraine have dropped by almost 55% in recent years and reached 419,000 Gg in 2005. None of the world's heaviest polluters can boast such a massive reduction in annual greenhouse gas emissions. However, even with a clear 30% reduction, Poland's progress as an en- ronmentally responsive new European Union (EU) member state is evidently behind that of Ukraine. While Poland reported 485,000 Gg of greenhouse gases 1 emissions in 1990, this figure fell to 399,000 Gg in 2005. Ukraine would seem at first glance to have achieved greater progress in the environmental policy context than Poland. Not only has Ukraine reduced its greenhouse gas emissions by more than 50%, it is also no longer in the group of the world's ten heaviest polluters. Nevertheless, Ukrainian environmental Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) openly declare that their homeland is "a country on the brink of an eco- 2 logical disaster." In contrast, Poland is no longer being considered "a country of ecological catastrophe" (Ministry of Environmental Protection, Natural - sources and Forestry 1991). It is even being described as a new EU member state that "made a remarkable environmental progress" (OECD 2003).

Автор: Schmiel Gene Название: Lincoln, Antietam and a Northern Lost Cause: What If a Union Victory Did Not End Slavery? ISBN: 1090698488 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781090698483 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 14930.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: What if, even after the Union had won the Civil War and Abraham Lincoln had issued the Emancipation Proclamation, slavery had remained legal in the United States? In this speculative history, written in a "you are there" style using the words of the participants themselves, Gene Schmiel shows exactly how that ironic and tragic series of events could have happened. He describes how one changed decision at the Battle of Antietam, September 17, 1862, could have created a "Civil War butterfly effect" and irrevocably changed American history. In mid-1862 Lincoln had decided that once the Union achieved a major victory, he would issue a preliminary Emancipation Proclamation. Most people don't know that among his objectives was to end the bloodshed and restore the Union by giving the Confederate states one more chance to re-join the Union, whether or not they abolished slavery. That document said that any state that rejoined the Union by January 1, 1863 could either continue the practice of slavery or receive compensation for freed slaves. Only in those states still in rebellion on that day would all slaves "be then, thenceforward, and forever free." Days after the Battle of Antietam, Lincoln issued the Proclamation. None of the Confederate states accepted its terms, and Lincoln issued the final Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863. In 1865 the Confederacy was defeated, and slavery was abolished by the 13th amendment. But none of that would have happened, Schmiel speculates, had one decision changed at Antietam. On September 17, 1862, Confederate commander General Robert E. Lee had placed his army in Maryland in front of the Potomac River with no viable escape route if his lines were overwhelmed. As one historian wrote, it was "audacity run amok." In reality his gamble succeeded. However, Schmiel speculates, one changed decision would have led to Lee's overwhelming defeat. If Union 9th corps commander General Jacob Cox had launched his final attack by the Union left flank at 2 P.M. instead of 3 P.M. that day, the Union army would have devastated the Confederates. Lee would have lost his audacious gamble, and all of his men would have been killed, wounded, or taken prisoner. This titanic victory would have been followed soon afterward by major Union successes in the West. By early October, the Confederacy would have lost nearly all of its military capability. Schmiel writes that although Lincoln would have still issued the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation, he would have realistically hoped that, with the Confederacy's armies destroyed, the war could end with the Confederate states voluntarily re-joining the Union, whether or not they kept slavery. Lincoln hoped that slavery would cease eventually, but at the time he thought that ending the war and re-uniting the nation were sufficient achievements. While Confederate President Jefferson Davis undoubtedly would have advocated continued resistance, his Cabinet and state governments would have recognized that their cause was lost. Schmiel writes that all the Confederate states would have accepted Lincoln's terms before the end of 1862, thus ending the war with the Union fully restored. Ironically, it would have been a Union where slavery would have been preserved and remained legal because, Schmiel conjectures, most of the former Confederate states would have kept slavery rather than accepting compensation for freeing their slaves.To some in the North, the failure to abolish slavery would become "the Northern lost cause" noted in the title. Abolitionists and black leaders would be bitter that despite the bloodshed, victory had not brought the cherished goal of destroying slavery. But, Schmiel speculates, as Lincoln would have said on January 1, 1863, "Our re-united nation no longer faces the devastation of war, the threat of secession, or the expansion of the odious institution of slavery."
