china and india. figures out today show the economy grew at 9% last year. we have this report from one cyrus -- buenos aires this is one of the busiest ports here. exports are rising. argentina is exporting more commodities to china and brazil. growth has not meant happiness for all. argentina has the second-highest rate of inflation in the americas after venezuela. some small businesses suffer because of it. >> everything goes up in price. we try not to put it in our final prices. that is a problem because our rent -- every day, it is less what we gain. >> inflation means higher wage demands and therefore higher costs. the official rate of inflation is about 10%. many economists say in reality, it is double this figure. that casts a cloud over the credibility of the growth. >> if you are underestimating the inflation rate, you will be overestimating the growth rate. it is quite likely that argentina's growth rate is not as high as the government data says. >> this is one of the busiest shopping streets in buenos aires. despite the rising cost of living, people remain positive. argentinian are more optimist

what san francisco, the bay area, california, even the united states, does if china and india keep pumping pollutants into the air? there are some that are convinced that it is a serious problem but don't know what we as individuals or the organizations or corporations we work for can constructively do about it. i think that largely takes in where a lot of us are today. and then, finally, there are the entrepreneurs. those are the folks who realize there is either money to be made or costs to be avoided, like getting out in front of the competition on this issue. and this group we find a lot in the bay area where we have a lot of innovative businesses. i hope there's something in my comments for everybody in each of these categories today, but i think we should keep that in mind. this is san francisco bay. it's upside down, but from australia's perspective, that's just fine. it is the largest estuary on the west coast. i hope this isn't an omen of all of the slides because we're going to all have to turn funny. it's the largest estuary on the west coast on both the north and south american continents. it's a regi

china has no clean air act. the air is so polluted that many people wear masks when they walk outside. and during the olympics in beijing, some u.s. athletes delayed their arrival to avoid the polluted air. on a trip i took to china some years ago, i went to visit the minister of environment and he complained. he said, look at how the united states fouls the air with the burning of fuel. and i asked him to join me on the -- at the window on the 23 floor, you couldn't see the sidewalk, that's how heavy the pollution was in the air. so we don't want to be like that. we want to make sure that we take care of our obligations, and the strongest obligation anybody has in america is to their children. and interestingly enough we -- what's happening now is the phone calls that came to my office in new jersey that first seemed to support these irrational budget cuts, and now they've turned around and they don't like what they see. and we don't -- we would rather make sure that our children are taken care of, that we try

i missed the other part of the question. >> china evacuated its citizens from libya, almost all the citizens, took we think just a few days with navy and air force. how do you see that? >> i think china like a lot of countries has moved the evacuated citizens and as you know the evacuate the citizens who wish to leave as well as its embassy personnel. >> yes, all the way in that. >> in the last several days in china there has been some violence against journalists and also detention of them. so the response from the administration doesn't seem to be the same magnitude as in use of the same treatment in north africa and the middle east. why is that? is it because it is off the radar? is there another reason? >> well, what i will do in giving you a response now is use the same language we've used in response to violence against journalists in those parts of the world that you mentioned. we are aware of the reports of the foreign journalists being detained or physically harassed in beijing and we find those reports disturbing. we call on the chinese government respect the rights of the foreign journalists to report in china and urged public s

air. so to say that radioactive nuclides were there and settled. that's why my reservations were china and korea and russian far east to help, to have aircraft ready with iodine cesium or maybe with other. that will help to capture this radioactive nuclides from the air and to settle them, to put them in the sea. as for canada and the united states, the situation is different. because radioactive nuclides are in very, not very much in the air. the concentration is not great. the danger is only from -- i can remind you, when china was testing in the air, -- in the united states the concentration of iodine in the air was a little -- was so little that it was officially announced that non-valuable, non-necessary. nonvisible. nonvisible. at the same time, it turned out that in california was just damaged by the iodine, because it concentrates like a magnet, the iodine from the air, and it makes the concentration is many times higher than it is in the air. there are several simple solutions just to protect yourself. you can take iodine and a bottle, and you can draw just this on your body h

country and rather than help the air, puts the same air is in india as -- because the same air is in india as is in china as over here. it's all in this big place we call the world, will still be polluting the air but 10 times worse than we do under our current regulations in the united states and we lules the jobs. so we are going to seek a vote on portland cement manufacturing -- manufacturing regulations and the argument that this increases mercury pollution essentially falls because we have evidence to show that mercury pollution, if it's in the united states, is coming from offshore. so all these things are things that are proposed right now. we've got charts over here to look at each one of them. here's the regulatory moratorium. outright ban on federal regulations, removes the top obstacle to economic recovery, business won't hire with obamacare, e.p.a. regs hanging over their head. the regulatory flexibility act. shaded areas indicate u.s. you is session. the 2009 research -- that's the word i can't read, organizations. look at how this is. this is what's happening from regulations. it's going up

and it happens that china puts more co2 in the air than we do. and you take china and brazil and india and indonesia and they put a lot more co2 into the united states, or into the air than the united states does. and yet, somehow e.p.a. is of the view that the united states can cut down and solve the global warming problem. well, even the e.p.a. director has testified before committees of congress that if the rest of the world doesn't do it, we're not going to make a dent in co2 just by the united states doing it. but the argument goes that the united states ought to show political leadership in this global economy we have. and if the united states would do something about co2, the rest of the world would follow along. but china's already said they weren't going to follow along. even japan that, signed on to the kyoto treaty, said that they wouldn't be involved in extending the kyoto treaty beyond 2012. and so, if the united states did it by itself, under the guise of being a world leader and setting an example and the rest of the world didn't do

fuels demand for air travel, it expects airlines in asia to take delivery of nearly 9000 aircraft in the next 20 years, representing 1/3 of global growth. airbus expects demand from china to make up the lion's share. airbus will be delivering its first a-380 to china airlines later this year. increasing traffic is causing china to rethink its aviation policy. >> aircraft's can spend a long time waiting to depart chinese airports. delays have become routine. traffic volumes are growing so fast that infrastructure can barely keep pace. 2010 passenger figures were 16% up on 2009, squeezing facilities. beijing is the second busiest in the world and has the world's worst record for delays. ipchinese aviation authorities e aware of the problem and are responding with an extensive program of construction projects over the coming years. >> china is preparing to build about 56 new airports, relocate over for the existing airports, and renovate and expand more than 90 airports. it involves a total 231 projects with an investment of 50 billion year rose. >> the money is urgently needed. the international civil aviation authority says chinese passenger figures will double in five

china has no clean air act.he air there is so polluted that many people wear masks when they walk outside, and during the olympics in beijing, some u.s. athletes delayed their arrival to avoid the exposure to the polluted air. i was 0en a trip to -- i was on a trip to china some years ago and i went to visit minister of the environment and he started complaining about how much the energy supply the united states uses and fouls the air and so i -- i was stunned because i had looked outside the window and i invited him to join me from the 23rd floor and look at -- look down at the street. the only thing is, you couldn't see the street. it was so blocked with soot and mist, poisonous mist out there, i'll call it, you couldn't see the sidewalk. that's how heavy the pollution in the air was. we don't need that. we want to make sure that we take care of our obligation to our families, to the children, and the strongest obligation anybody has in america is to the kids. the bottom line is that a day on the playground sh

china and russia. interestingly of course, in that group is germany. germany, the biggest country in the european union, has very serious feelings about whether the air strikes are possible or whether they will lead to a potential escalation or a regional conflict. >> any of the ambassador's apart from the germans talk about military actions about strategic air strikes? >> no, what we had is a lot of rhetoric and a lot of show of unity. there is a tension. clearly no one is sure how this military action is going to proceed from here on in. president obama telephoned the british prime minister and the french president to make sure that they were going to go forward. there is a serious lack of detail and that is warning the skeptics, the five nations that abstained. >> -- that is worrying the skeptics. >> why do you think they took the step of not be telling this resolution? china and russia said this was an internal matter. >> rather skillfully, the americans, the british, and the french were able to morally strong arm russia and china. they said, do you really want to be the ones who are going to turn your backs on the defense's civilians in libya? are you g
