[ Weg met de wegwerpcultuur ]
23 maart 2009 Eveline Thoenes 25 reacties 1730x gelezen
De kilo’s dagelijks afgedankte plastic wegwerpbuisjes, -epjes en -pipetpuntjes geven menig moleculair bioloog een schuldgevoel. Fabrikanten spelen daarop in door biodegradeerbare en recyclebare alternatieven op de markt te brengen met namen als Earth Saver Tips. Levert dit echt milieuwinst?
Vol trots presenteert het Britse bedrijf Anachem, dat labbenodigdheden verkoopt, op zijn website de serie Earth Saver pipetpunten. Wat blijkt? Enkel het doosje waar de puntjes in zitten is van biodegradeerbaar plastic. En dat terwijl navraag leert dat in bijna geen enkel laboratorium die doosjes worden weggegooid: men vult ze eenvoudig weer met nieuwe punten. Waarom niet de puntjes zelf bioafbreekbaar maken? Die belanden immers in grote hoeveelheden bij het afval.
“De chemische resistentie van biodegradeerbare plastics is niet altijd goed. Ze worden bijvoorbeeld aangetast door zuur”, zegt Denka Hristova, polymeertechnoloog aan de TU Eindhoven. “Sommige polyesters zijn bovendien gevoelig voor vocht.” Buisjes en flessen van het biodegradeerbare PLA (polymelkzuur) gaan daardoor bijvoorbeeld al na een paar dagen lekken.
Bij die biodegradeerbaarheid kan men overigens ook zijn vraagtekens zetten: PLA breekt niet zomaar af als je het in de natuur gooit. Hristova: “Biodegradeerbaar betekent dat het onder bepaalde omstandigheden afgebroken kán worden door microorganismen. Voor PLA zijn die omstandigheden 60 °C en 70 procent vochtigheid.” Alleen industriële composthopen voldoen daaraan.
Bulk
“Als je de wereld wilt verbeteren, zou ik me niet op biodegradeerbare pipetpunten richten”, zegt Christiaan Bolck, programmacoördinator op gebied van bioplastics binnen Wageningen Universiteit. Volgens hem gaat het biodegradable gebeuren toch vooral om de bulkmarkten, zoals consumentenverpakkingen en bouwmaterialen. “Bij gebruik in het lab is het een beetje een druppel op een gloeiende plaat, want er zijn relatief weinig labs. Daarbij blijft er altijd wat van de gebruikte stofjes in de punten achter. Dat is vaak niet het meest lekkere spul om op je composthoop te hebben.”
Bovendien blijkt van al dat afbreekbare afval helemaal niets op de composthoop gestort te worden. Op de website van afvalbeheerder Indaver, België, is te lezen dat al het medische en labafval rechtstreeks de verbrandingsoven in gaat. En dat is volgens de Gentse hoogleraar Gustaaf Schoukens ook de beste methode. De energie die vrijkomt bij het verbranden van de plastics wordt in de meeste gevallen namelijk gebruikt voor de opwekking van elektriciteit. Schoukens: “Plastics bevatten doorgaans geen zwavel of andere vervuilende stoffen, dus er komt enkel CO2 vrij. En elektriciteit moeten we toch opwekken.” In dat opzicht kun je het plastic, dat uit aardolie vervaardigd is, dus in feite beschouwen als ‘geleende brandstof’, dat nog nuttig gebruikt wordt op weg naar de verbrandingsoven.
Instinctief zou je misschien wel denken dat plastic dat biologisch afbreekt op een composthoop beter is voor het milieu dan plastic dat de afvalverbrandingsoven in gaat, maar bij beide gaat evenveel grondstof verloren en komt exact evenveel CO2 vrij. En waar in een oven de hitte die vrijkomt tenminste nog kan worden gebruikt om elektriciteit op te wekken, gaat de energie die vrijkomt bij biologische afbraak volledig verloren. Het enige streepje dat het biodegradeerbare plastic dan nog op zijn nietbiodegradeerbare broertje voor heeft, is de grondstofbron. De meeste biodegradeerbare plastics worden namelijk geproduceerd uit hernieuwbare bronnen zoals mais.
Omsmelten
Het Amerikaanse Fisher Bioscience doet zich ‘groen’ voor door ‘Environmental Reload Tips’ aan te bieden, met begeleidende teksten als: ‘vervaardigd uit volledig recyclebare materialen, verminder hiermee uw plasticafval met 80 procent.’ Na wat navragen blijkt echter dat alle buisjes en pipetpuntjes van verschillende merken standaard van het recyclebare polypropyleen (PP) zijn gemaakt en dat het hier dus niets bijzonders betreft. Dat ze recyclebaar zijn, betekent namelijk nog niet dat ze ook werkelijk gerecycled worden. Fisher was echter niet bereikbaar voor verdere vragen. Een woordvoerder van concurrent Eppendorf legt uit: “Onze wegwerpproducten zijn in theorie allemaal wel recyclebaar, maar je kunt natuurlijk geen plastic gaan recyclen dat gecontamineerd is met chemicaliën of ggo’s.”
Ook pipetpuntjes maken van plastic dat gerecycled is na gebruik voor andere doeleinden, is volgens Eppendorf niet mogelijk. “We willen onze klanten producten van het zuiverste plastic bieden, om alle mogelijke neveneffecten op experimenten te vermijden. Daarnaast moeten de puntjes hydrofoob zijn, want als je met microliters werkt is het belangrijk dat er absoluut niets in de pipet achterblijft. En dat kan alleen gegarandeerd worden met zuiver polypropyleen.”
En zelfs dat zuivere polypropyleen is soms niet goed genoeg, zo publiceerden Amerikaanse onderzoekers eind vorig jaar in Science. De door de kunststoffabrikanten gebruikte additieven – waaronder weekmakers en slip agents – logen namelijk gemakkelijk uit en kunnen daardoor de activiteit van enzymen beïnvloeden.
Toepassing
Winnok De Vos ziet wel mogelijkheden om gebruikte pipetpunten apart in te zamelen voor hergebruik. “We hebben nu ook al meerdere afvalstromen, dat is op zich geen probleem”, meent de onderzoeksassistent op de vakgroep Moleculaire Biotechnologie in Gent. “Bij het gebruik van gerecyclede pipetpunten zou je wel goed moeten nadenken waarvoor je ze gebruikt. Aanwezigheid van restanten DNA is bijvoorbeeld bij ELISA geen probleem, maar bij PCR wel.” Hij schat dat in zijn lab een vijfde van het gebruikte plastic in de gewone vuilniszakken wordt gedaan, omdat het geen gevaarlijke stoffen bevat. Maar het gaat toch om erg kleine volumes, het aandeel wegwerpplastic in het Vlaamse laboratoriumafval gaat waarschijnlijk om ‘slechts’ enkele tientallen tot honderden tonnen per jaar.
De mogelijkheden voor hergebruik worden bovendien vaak beperkt door de economische haalbaarheid. “Het is helaas meestal goedkoper om nieuwe grondstof te gebruiken”, zegt Karel Van Acker, coördinator van het Leuven Materials Research Centre. De kosten zitten voornamelijk in het ophalen en sorteren. “Er is bovendien een voldoende zuivere plasticstroom nodig.” Bij pet, bekend van de frisdrankflessen, loopt dat redelijk goed en dat is in veel landen dan ook het enige plastic dat wordt gerecycled. Polypropyleen komt daarentegen vaak voor in producten die ook andere polymeren bevatten, wat hergebruik ernstig bemoeilijkt. Vaak komt in de praktijk ‘recycling’ daarom neer op ‘downcycling’: de kwaliteit gaat achteruit, waardoor je er alleen nog verkeerspaaltjes of tuinstoelen van kunt maken.
Tweede ronde
Is zelf schoonmaken en hergebruiken dan de enige overgebleven optie voor weggooien? “Dat is echt onbegonnen werk”, meent Joke Granneman, analist op een moleculair biologisch lab aan de Universiteit Utrecht. “Wij hadden vroeger een collega die dat deed. Die is inmiddels al 15 jaar met pensioen, maar daar worden nog steeds grappen over gemaakt.” Je bent volgens Granneman op die manier niet alleen veel water kwijt, je weet bovendien niet of het daarna wel echt schoon is. “Dat kun je gewoon niet hebben.”

Iran's Majlis (Parliament) is to discuss a bill on Sunday that seeks to halt its oil exports to the European Union (EU),griffey shoeslocal satellite channel Press TV reported on Friday.
Iranian lawmakers will discuss the bill that calls for a ban of oil exports to the EU as early as next week,ken griffey shoes Hossein Ebrahimi, deputy head of the Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, was quoted by Press TV as saying.
In reference to the EU's decision to embargo Iran's oil,ken griffey jr shoes the lawmaker called the new sanction measures a psychological war, the implementation of which remains uncertain.
Nasser Soudani,king griffey shoes a member of Iran's Majlis Energy Commission, said Wednesday that in a preemptive move, the Iranian parliament is mulling over a plan to halt its oil exports to the EU member states.
Majlis representatives are seeking to approve a plan, ken griffey shoesaccording to which all European countries that have imposed sanctions against Iran will not be able to buy even one drop of oil from Iran, Soudani said.
The foreign ministers of the EU countries on Monday decided to ban Iran's oil and oil products, griffeys 2011causing investors to worry about global oil supplies as Tehran has threatened in retaliation to close the Strait of Hormuz, a key shipping lane for the trade.
Major EU importers of Iran's oil, such as Greece,griffeys sneakers Italy and Spain, have until July 1, when the embargo comes into force, to find alternative oil suppliers.
Ali-Abar Velayati, cheap griffeystop advisor to Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, warned Thursday that no one can sell oil if Iran cannot.
With pressure ramped up on Iran over its disputed nuclear program, griffeys 2012the Islamic republic is suffering from multiple economic woes such as currency depreciation and rising inflation.
A high-ranking team of the Internationalgriffeys shoes Atomic Energy Agency will pay a three-day visit to Iran on Jan. 29 to discuss issues related to the country's controversial nuclear program.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Saturday accused Israel of foiling exploratory talks that were held in Jordan's capital Amman this month.
Abbas said the talks,griffey shoes sponsored by the Quartet of Middle East peacemakers, failed due to Israel's inflexibility and its refusal to present clear visions regarding the issues of borders and security.
Abbas made his remarks when he met with Ireland's Foreign Minister Eamon Gilmore in the West Bank, ken griffey shoesaccording of official Wafa news agency.
Wafa said that Abbas has reiterated the Palestinian leadership' s commitment to a real,ken griffey jr shoes serious peace process leading to ending the Israeli occupation and the establishment of the Palestinian state with its capital in East Jerusalem.
He stressed that the Palestinians are ready to resume king griffey shoesdirect peace negotiations once Israel recognizes the borders of the future Palestinian state and stops settlement building. Abbas said the 1967 lines should be the baseline of the borders.
Abbas hoped that the European Union (EU) would play a bigger political role to accomodate with the level of threat engulfing the peace process.griffeys for women
This month, Palestinian and Israeli negotiators held cheap griffey shoessix meetings in Amman in a bid to revive their direct negotiations, which have stopped since 2010. The Palestinians say that Israel has not presented details about its vision to settle security and borders issues.
The Quartet, which comprises the United States,cheap ken griffey shoes the EU, Russia and the United Nations, believes that an agreement on thegriffeys sneakers borders and security will smoothly lead to a final agreement between the two sides.
Euro and the single currency, which are still young, have many deficiencies, cheap griffeysbut fears that the currency would collapse are overblown, a senior economist of an influential think tank said Saturday.
The euro area is certainly imperfect, but that does not mean that it is unsustainable, griffeys 2012Daniel Gros, director of the Centre for European Policy Studies (CEPS), told TingVoa.com.
Gros' comments came in response to British Prime Minister David Cameron who said on Friday that there is no systemic support to make euro a successful currency.griffey shoes
Speaking at the Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF) at Davos, Cameron said that all successful single currency have the same characteristics and need to improve and mature as a support system.
The eurozone's problem is not lack one of these systems, but simply a no,griffeys 2012 referring to the eurozone's lacking of a strong unified central bank, a sound financial system, a high degree of integration and flexibility to respond to economic shocks, among other things, said the prime minister.
I don't agree with Cameron, Gros said. The eurozone is still young, ken griffey shoesand the support system would be gradually installed as eurozone countries undergo structural adjustment, he added.
Adjustment has happened in the past. Germany, for example, entered with an overvalued exchange rate, but then was able to adjust. Italy, Spain and other countries will also adjust, Gros said in an emailed message to TingVoa.com.
The CEPS director also said the adjustment would take time,ken griffey jr shoes but is expected to be completed gradually. It will take longer than optimal, but it will happen gradually - provided financial market turbulence remains limited.
Gros specifically pointed Cameron's comment about the eurozone's lack of a strong unified central as something against the fact. Luckily, the one point on which Cameron is dead wrong is the European Central Bank: it is very strong.
In a CEPS commentary published earlier this month,king griffey shoes Gros said key macroeconomic indicators do not suggest any problem for the eurozone as a whole. On the contrary, it has a balanced current account, which means that it has enough resources to solve its own public-finance problems.
In this respect, the eurozone compares favourably with other large currency areas,cheap ken griffey shoes such as the United States or, closer to home, the United Kingdom, which run external deficits and thus depend on continuing inflows of capital, he added in the commentary.
In terms of fiscal policy, too, the eurozone average is comparatively strong. griffeys 2011It has a much lower fiscal deficit than the U.S., being 4 percent of GDP for the eurozone, compared to almost 10 percent for the U.S., according to the commentary.
Much has been written about Europe's sluggish growth,griffeys sneakers but the record is actually not so bad, Gross said. Over the last decade, per capita growth in the U.S. and the eurozone has been almost exactly the same, he added.
Given this relative strength in the eurozone's fundamentals, it is far too early to write off the euro,cheap griffeys but the crisis has been going from bad to worse, as Europe's policy-makers seem boundlessly capable of making a mess out of the situation, Gros said in the commentary.
The senior economist, who had done research work in the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the European Commission,griffeys shoes attributed the worsening debt crisis to the unbalanced internal distribution of savings and financial investments.
There is an excess of savings north of the Alps,griffey shoes but northern European savers do not want to finance southern countries like Italy, Spain, and Greece, Gros said.
That is why the risk premium on Italian and other southern European debt remain at 450 to 500 basis points, griffeys shoesand why, at the same time, the German government can issue short-term securities at essentially zero rates.
Both the German government and the European Central Bank could take care of the problem if it were willing to, ken griffey shoesbut they are understandably reluctant to take such an enormous risk, Gros said.
The euro's long-run survival requires the correct mix of adjustment by debtors,ken griffey jr shoes debt forgiveness where this is not enough, and bridge financing to convince nervous financial markets that the debtors will have the time needed for adjustment to work, Gros said.
The resources are there. Europe needs the political will to mobilize them, he added.
Posing as French protector, French President Nicolas Sarkozy snatched a place at the Elysee Palace in 2007 after promising voters to bring to them security, work and wealth.
Five years later, king griffey shoesa deteriorating economic climate marked by high joblessness and weak purchasing power raised questions about Sarkozy's ability to secure a second mandate.
To his followers, women griffey shoesthe 57-year-old head of state is working hard to propose remedies for the country to solve problems triggered by regional and global turmoil.
But critics said France was on the hot seat due to the failed policy of Sarkozy who missed the right path to guide for prosperity.
If we look to released data, nothing is reassuring.women griffeys Sarkozy is in difficult situation due to the tough crisis which has shaken the country. I think he has to appease electorate of Marine Le Pen and Francois Bayrou to reach the second tour, said Claire Piaut, analyst at CSA.
The situation is complicated as he is going to run for a second term with misperceived first mandate considered negative by many of French people, she told TingVoa.com.
Under Sarkozy,griffeys for women unemployment rate hit 12-year record after reporting 2.874 million job seekers in December, up by 5.6 percent from the same period a year ago, as the government austerity measures hampered growth and dried up opportunities of new jobs.
So, French gross domestic product (GDP) growth this year has been revised down to 1 percent from an initial estimation of 1.75 percent.
In the past four decades, griffeysunemployment rate has been painting French political spectra. In 1975, 1 million unemployed people forced Valey Giscard d'Estaing to quit the Elysee. With 2 million jobseekers, the socialist Francois Mitterrand accepted a cohabitation with the right wing in 1986 to secure a second mandate. Defeated Edouard Balladur in 1995, Jacques Chirac left office as joblessness jumped in 2002.
Furthermore, France, the eurozone's second biggest economy,griffeys 2011 came under heavy fire on global markets and became the bloc's latest member sucked into a spiraling debt crisis.
Worries about a wider fiscal gap and domestic banks' exposure to debt-ridden Europe prompted a cut of France's top notch triple-A rating by Standard and Poor's, griffeys sneakersmaking its sovereignty at risk, a second blow to the current French president.
Triple-A debt rating was not the main concern of the French people but the downgrade contributed to a general climate of anxiety and pessimism about the future of France and plays on the credibility of Nicolas Sarkozy, said Miquet-Marty, director of Viavoice institute.
According to ifop poll issued on Friday,cheap griffeys the current head of state would win 43 percent of votes in the second round, far behind the socialist candidate Francois Hollande expected to garner 57 percent of the votes.
Speaking to BFM TV, Industry Minister Eric Besson pointed to the other face of the coin, stressing that disappointing economic data are not fatal to Sarkozy. griffeys 2012
Do you think someone else could do better than Sarkozy since 2007? the minister asked.
The former lawyer came to power in 2007 after seizing a lead over the socialist Segolene Royal with 53 percent of the votes.
Sarkozy did not yet officialize his bid to extend his five-year term. tiger shoesBut he repeatedly reiterated his determination to work until the last minute of ... the mandate in an attempt to appease electorate.
My duty is to address all the problems and protect you.asics tiger shoes You can be sure that I will assume to the end the heavy responsibilities you have entrusted me, Sarkozy said in his New Year's greeting message.
According to sources close to the Elysee, the president will announce his candidacy in March.
Sarkozy is scheduled to come on the country's main TV channels on Sunday to announce new measures mainly on unemployment,asics tiger in a likely further move to regain voters' confidence and garner enough points to beat his fierce socialist rival.
U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta on Thursday unveiled the Pentagon's budget priorities for the 2013 fiscal year, Asics Tiger Shoes Australiaincluding plans to significantly cut defense spending and ground forces at a time of fiscal constraint.
The most striking part of the priorities calls for smaller ground forces,Onitsuka Tiger with the number of active Army soldiers cut from 570,000 in 2010 to 490,000 by 2017, and the Marines cut from 202,000 to 182,000. In all, the military will have 100,000 fewer boots on the ground.
To achieve that goal, the Army plans to remove at least eight Brigade Combat Teams from its existing structure,Asics Shoes the Pentagon said in a document outlining the budget preview. Even with these reductions, the Army and Marine Corps will be larger than they were in 2001.
Lawrence Korb, a former assistant defense secretary who is now a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, asics running shoesa Washington-based think tank, said the United States is cutting ground forces because the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are ending.
But not only the number of ground forces is being cut,Asics Australia other parts of the defense sector are affected as well. The Navy will retire seven aging cruisers early, and several new ships will be delayed. The Air Force will also retire six tactical fighters out of its 60-strong squadron.
But the strongest equipment at the disposal of the Navy and Air Force will remain operational. Onitsuka tiger shoesThe United States will continue to keep 11 aircraft carriers, its current bomber fleet, big-deck amphibious fleet, as well as funding for a new generation bomber and for increasing the cruise missile capacity in future Virginia-class submarines and designing a conventional prompt-strike option from submarines.
These weapons are also important for the U.S. presence in the Asia Pacific and the Middle East, Asics mexico 66where the United States is putting an emphasis on its new strategic guidance released earlier this month.
In remarks to reporters, Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Adm.cheap tiger shoes James A. Winnefeld Jr. stressed the capability, the flexibility, the independent capability of a carrier from basing, the applicability of that ship in an anti-access environment and its particularly useful role in the Middle East and the Pacific, which is where we have emphasized most of the regional strategic focus.
Winnefeld said there is going tiger shoes for womento be a gradual shift in the Navy's force structure from east to west for aircraft carriers, cheap asics tigersubmarines, logistics ships and others in the Pacific.

Euro and the single currency, which are still young, have many deficiencies, cheap griffeysbut fears that the currency would collapse are overblown, a senior economist of an influential think tank said Saturday.
The euro area is certainly imperfect, but that does not mean that it is unsustainable, griffeys 2012Daniel Gros, director of the Centre for European Policy Studies (CEPS), told TingVoa.com.
Gros' comments came in response to British Prime Minister David Cameron who said on Friday that there is no systemic support to make euro a successful currency.griffey shoes
Speaking at the Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF) at Davos, Cameron said that all successful single currency have the same characteristics and need to improve and mature as a support system.
The eurozone's problem is not lack one of these systems, but simply a no,griffeys 2012 referring to the eurozone's lacking of a strong unified central bank, a sound financial system, a high degree of integration and flexibility to respond to economic shocks, among other things, said the prime minister.
I don't agree with Cameron, Gros said. The eurozone is still young, ken griffey shoesand the support system would be gradually installed as eurozone countries undergo structural adjustment, he added.
Adjustment has happened in the past. Germany, for example, entered with an overvalued exchange rate, but then was able to adjust. Italy, Spain and other countries will also adjust, Gros said in an emailed message to TingVoa.com.
The CEPS director also said the adjustment would take time,ken griffey jr shoes but is expected to be completed gradually. It will take longer than optimal, but it will happen gradually - provided financial market turbulence remains limited.
Gros specifically pointed Cameron's comment about the eurozone's lack of a strong unified central as something against the fact. Luckily, the one point on which Cameron is dead wrong is the European Central Bank: it is very strong.
In a CEPS commentary published earlier this month,king griffey shoes Gros said key macroeconomic indicators do not suggest any problem for the eurozone as a whole. On the contrary, it has a balanced current account, which means that it has enough resources to solve its own public-finance problems.
In this respect, the eurozone compares favourably with other large currency areas,cheap ken griffey shoes such as the United States or, closer to home, the United Kingdom, which run external deficits and thus depend on continuing inflows of capital, he added in the commentary.
In terms of fiscal policy, too, the eurozone average is comparatively strong. griffeys 2011It has a much lower fiscal deficit than the U.S., being 4 percent of GDP for the eurozone, compared to almost 10 percent for the U.S., according to the commentary.
Much has been written about Europe's sluggish growth,griffeys sneakers but the record is actually not so bad, Gross said. Over the last decade, per capita growth in the U.S. and the eurozone has been almost exactly the same, he added.
Given this relative strength in the eurozone's fundamentals, it is far too early to write off the euro,cheap griffeys but the crisis has been going from bad to worse, as Europe's policy-makers seem boundlessly capable of making a mess out of the situation, Gros said in the commentary.
The senior economist, who had done research work in the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the European Commission,griffeys shoes attributed the worsening debt crisis to the unbalanced internal distribution of savings and financial investments.
There is an excess of savings north of the Alps,griffey shoes but northern European savers do not want to finance southern countries like Italy, Spain, and Greece, Gros said.
That is why the risk premium on Italian and other southern European debt remain at 450 to 500 basis points, griffeys shoesand why, at the same time, the German government can issue short-term securities at essentially zero rates.
Both the German government and the European Central Bank could take care of the problem if it were willing to, ken griffey shoesbut they are understandably reluctant to take such an enormous risk, Gros said.
The euro's long-run survival requires the correct mix of adjustment by debtors,ken griffey jr shoes debt forgiveness where this is not enough, and bridge financing to convince nervous financial markets that the debtors will have the time needed for adjustment to work, Gros said.
The resources are there. Europe needs the political will to mobilize them, he added.

Lawrence Korb, a former assistant defense secretary who is now a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, asics running shoesa Washington-based think tank, said the United States is cutting ground forces because the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are ending.
But not only the number of ground forces is being cut,Asics Australia other parts of the defense sector are affected as well. The Navy will retire seven aging cruisers early, and several new ships will be delayed. The Air Force will also retire six tactical fighters out of its 60-strong squadron.
But the strongest equipment at the disposal of the Navy and Air Force will remain operational. Onitsuka tiger shoesThe United States will continue to keep 11 aircraft carriers, its current bomber fleet, big-deck amphibious fleet, as well as funding for a new generation bomber and for increasing the cruise missile capacity in future Virginia-class submarines and designing a conventional prompt-strike option from submarines.
These weapons are also important for the U.S. presence in the Asia Pacific and the Middle East, Asics mexico 66where the United States is putting an emphasis on its new strategic guidance released earlier this month.

I don't agree with Cameron, Gros said. The eurozone is still young,
ken griffey shoesand the support system would be gradually installed as eurozone countries undergo structural adjustment, he added.
Adjustment has happened in the past. Germany, for example, entered with an overvalued exchange rate, but then was able to adjust. Italy, Spain and other countries will also adjust, Gros said in an emailed message to TingVoa.com.
