As most of the world is striving to regain economic stability and growth, it's interesting to see some new industries that can really boost economic viability. One such industry is recycling. More widespread efforts than ever before are being made not only to recycle the usual glass, paper, and plastic, but an ever-expanding range of products. For example, there are even programs specific to recycling carpeting. Companies like Empire Today, which people also know as Empire Carpett, participate in such programs as CARE, (Carpet America Recovery Effort), and CLEAR (Carpet Landfill Elimination And Recycling). The expansion of recycling into different markets creates jobs as well as ventures that can be less risky than some others. There's a constant piling-up of materials discarded as waste, so there's no shortage of raw material, so to speak, for the industry of recycling. In addition, there's an ever-increasing awareness in businesses and in consumers about the value of using recycled materials. Recycling helps us advance our efforts to get ourselves onto a more sustainable use of resources and to better care for our environment. For students, this is a rewarding area to focus on. There is plenty of room for new ideas on what we can recycle, how best to recycle, and what new uses for recycled materials there may be. There's lots of room for development in this field, so with the energy and inventiveness of students, this field could really boom.

One of the globalization effects most criticized in the US is the fact that US-based multinational corporations, who employ approximately 1/5 of the US workforce, have been cutting back their hiring in the US while hiring more overseas. New data from the US Commerce Department indicates that during the last decade US companies cut their domestic work forces by 2.9 million while they increased overseas employment by 2.4 million.

This is in sharp contrast to the 1990s where US corporations created many jobs overseas but even more jobs at home. This trend toward outsourcing is highlighting the importance of other rapidly growing economies to large US companies like Wal-Mart, Microsoft, Caterpillar and GE. This data has led some to call for US government intervention to hinder companies from exporting work overseas. While explicit protectionist laws are unlikely, implicit tools like currency depreciation may have some effect.
