Indeed, this may grossly under-represent the present situation: the rapid spread of UNIX-based systems seems to facilitate competition and, at the time of writing, performance of workstations per unit cost seems to be increasing at about 50 per cent per annum.
Fortunately, technical developments have ensured that the increase in computing power per unit cost has been growing at about an order of magnitude every 6 years over the last three decades.
Moreover, the advent of low-cost, high-density-storage devices like CD-ROMs may well make substantial data sets available even to those with modest computing power: a CD-ROM, for instance, can hold about 600 megabytes (i.e. 10&sup6; bytes), can be reproduced currently for about Β£1 and read on a device costing about Β£400.

But calculations of the total carbon released by fossil fuel combustion imply that, if all such carbon remained in the atmosphere, the concentration would have increased by twice as much.
It should be stressed, however, that β€” while the outlines of human activities are clear β€” there are still many uncertainties: for instance, we know that the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide has risen about 9 per cent since 1959.
The absolute difference between the two figures seems to be due to two different factors: absorption by the oceans and other reductions in carbon stocks in living biota, the latter being strongly affected by human activities since the Industrial Revolution.

For geographers β€” who span the conventional (and now archaic) dichotomy between the natural and the environmental sciences β€” all of these aspects need to be woven together to anticipate the likely spatial patterns of the effects of massive change, the redistributions in trade, health and wealth which they will bring about and the β€˜ knock on ’ effects these consequences themselves will have on society and the environment.
Yet the consequences of any significant changes are a matter of the utmost concern to planners and to politicians at all levels, the quantification of the costs and benefits of alternative policy strategies is very much a matter for economists, and the adaptation of societies to massive change is a particular interest to sociologists and others.
For social scientists, then, environmental monitoring and prediction are a matter of considerable significance, especially as β€˜ globalization ’ of markets and economies proceeds.

Whether attempting to construct a database of resources for use in planning responses to nuclear emergencies, developing optimal routes for scheduling the safe transport of hazardous substances, or monitoring the health implications of a disaster, GIS can assist in identifying possibilities and formulating solutions.
Few areas of the application of GIS technology can be as socially significant, or environmentally relevant, as the management of emergencies and disasters due to natural and technological hazards.
The 1990s have been declared the International Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction.

Even ignoring the effects of man, earth system processes operate at a variety of spatial and temporal scales (see Fig. 9.1; see also Rosswall et al. 1988).
Thus microclimate effects can have major short-term implications for local populations (such as those brought about by the photochemical smogs of Los Angeles), are often applicable only over areas of a few hectares or less and may operate on a diurnal cycle.

Existing GIS techniques usually base the estimates on area-weighted shares, so that a new polygon created by β€˜ slicing ’ an existing area in half is assigned half the population of that source unit.
We may want to count numbers living within plumes, circles of fixed radius, buffer zones and so on.
This may be quite absurd in some cases, notably where population is spatially clustered within a physically large ED.

Responding to the Handsworth events Douglas Hurd was moved to argue forcibly that such events were senseless and reflected more on those who participated in them than on the society in which they took place: β€˜ The sound which law abiding people in Handsworth heard on Monday night, the echoes of which I picked up on Tuesday, was not a cry for help but a cry for loot ’ (Financial Times, 13 September 1985).
The Chief Constable for the West Midlands, Geoffrey Dear, took this argument further by pointing out that the day before the riots a successful carnival had taken place, with the support of local community leaders.

D maintained throughout that he had not intended to kill, but there was evidence from which the jury could infer β€” and did infer β€” that he intended to cause grievous bodily harm.
The House of Lords confirmed this rule in Cunningham (1981): D struck his victim on the head a number of times with a chair, causing injuries from which the victim died a week later.
The House of Lords upheld D's conviction for murder: an intent to cause really serious injury is sufficient for murder, without any proof that the defendant intended, or even contemplated, the possibility that death would result.
