Economy

10 Ways Recession Can Help the Environment: However, it’s not all doom and gloom – recession could do wonders for the environment. Here are 10 ways this could be helping provide a positive respite to the planet:

Housing Meltdown: "Smart" People Do The Stupidest Things: Here’s a random collection of notable quotes from people in suburbia I know, along with their educational provenance, and/or current profession
"Euros Accepted" signs pop up in New York City: In the latest example that the U.S. dollar just ain't what it used to be, some shops in New York City have begun accepting euros and other foreign currency as payment for merchandise.
High Wheat Prices Raise Grocery Costs: The price of wheat has more than tripled during the past 10 months, making Americans' daily bread — and bagels and pizza and pasta — feel a little like luxury items. And baked goods aren't the only ones getting more expensive: Experts expect some 80 percent of grocery prices will spike, too, and could remain steep for years because wheat and other grains are used to feed cattle, poultry and dairy cows.
Cutback Cuisine - WSJ.com: With food costs soaring, restaurants are making changes. Steaks are out. Pastas and shrinking portions are in.
Homes in foreclosure rose 79% in '07: The number of U.S. homes that slipped into some stage of foreclosure in 2007 was 79% higher than in the previous year...
Food prices rising across the world - CNN.com: If you're seeing your grocery bill go up, you're not alone.
Are we in a recession?: It’s interesting to hear different people’s opinions at the World Economic Forum about what the economy is going to do this year.
Rate cuts: why the Fed is just making everything worse: Here’s the problem with the Fed’s approach. It’s now time for people and companies – banks, specifically - to rebuild their balance sheets. So by slashing interest rates and devaluing money, you actually make it harder for them to do that.
Consumer Spending Slowed in December: Consumers increased their spending at the weakest pace in six months while applications for unemployment benefits soared last week, two more signs the economy is weakening.
