Less meat is nearly always better than sustainable meat, to reduce your carbon footprint
by Hannah Ritchie
Our World in Data presents the empirical evidence on global development in entries dedicated to specific topics.
This blog post draws on data and research discussed in our entries on Environmental impacts of food production and CO2 and Greenhouse Gas Emissions.
What is the best way to reduce the carbon footprint of our diet?
I have shown previously that what we choose to eat has the largest impact, making a bigger difference than how far our food has traveled, or how much packaging it's wrapped in. This is because only a small fraction comes from transport and packaging and most of our food emissions come from processes on the farm, or from land use change.
Regardless of whether you compare the footprint of foods in terms of their weight (e.g. one kilogram of cheese versus one kilogram of peas); protein content ; or calories, the overall conclusion is the same: plant-based foods tend to have a lower carbon footprint than meat and dairy. In many cases a much smaller footprint.
As an example: producing 100 grams of protein from peas emits just 0.4 kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2eq). To get the same amount of protein from beef, emissions would be nearly 90 times higher, at 35 kgCO2eq.1
But it comes with the caveat that comparisons are made based on global averages.
Many argue that this overlooks the large variation in the footprints of foods across the world. Using global averages might give us a misleading picture for some parts of the world or some producers. If I source my beef or lamb from low-impact producers, could they have a lower footprint than plant-based alternatives?
The evidence suggests, no: plant-based foods emit fewer greenhouse gases than meat and dairy, regardless of how they are produced.
Let's take a look at the full range of footprints for protein-rich foods.
Protein-rich foods account for the bulk of our dietary emissions. In European diets, meat, dairy and eggs account for 83%. That's why I focus on them here.
In the visualization we see the range of carbon footprints for these foods. This data is from the largest meta-analysis of global food systems to date, published in Science by Joseph Poore and Thomas Nemecek (2018).2 In this study, the authors looked at data across more than 38,000 commercial farms in 119 countries.
All greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are measured in kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalents per 100 grams of protein; this metric takes account of not only carbon dioxide but also the range of other greenhouse gases – this is further explained in the footnote.3 To make reading less repetitive, I refer to it as 'kgCO2eq' below.
The visualization shows the median footprint – highlighted by a small white circle for each food product.
But since there are large differences between producers, this chart also shows the full spectrum of emissions – from the lowest to highest producers. The height at each point in the curve represents the amount of global production with that specific footprint.
The median footprint for beef is 25 kgCO2eq.4 But some producers have a much higher footprint: ten percent emit more than 105 kgCO2eq per 100 grams. At the other end, some are much lower. Ten percent emit less than 9 kgCO2eq. We see from the height of the curve that most beef production lies in the range between 17 to 27 kgCO2eq.
How do the distributions between plant-based and meat-based sources compare?
Plant-based protein sources – tofu, beans, peas and nuts – have the lowest carbon footprint. This is certainly true when you compare average emissions. But it's still true when you compare the extremes: there's not much overlap in emissions between the worst producers of plant proteins, and the best producers of meat and dairy.
Let's compare the highest-impact producers (the top ten percent) of plant-based proteins with the lowest-impact producers (the bottom ten percent) of meat and dairy.
The pea producers with the highest footprint emit just 0.8 kgCO2eq per 100 grams of protein.5 For nuts it is 2.4 and for tofu, 3.5 kgCO2eq. All are several times less than the lowest impact lamb (12 kgCO2eq) and beef (9 kgCO2eq). Emissions are also lower than those from the best cheese and pork (4.5 kgCO2eq); and slightly lower or comparable to those from the lowest-footprint chicken (2.4 kgCO2eq).6
If you want a lower-carbon diet, eating less meat is nearly always better than eating the most sustainable meat.
This is also true for the differences between meat products. Chicken, eggs, and pork nearly always have a lower footprint than beef and lamb: there is some, but not much overlap between the worst poultry and pork producers, and the best beef and lamb producers. The world's highest impact chicken and pork have a footprint of 12 and 14 kgCO2eq. This is similar to, or only slightly higher than, the world's best beef and lamb.
Regardless of where you get your beef or lamb from, substituting with chicken and pork is likely to reduce your carbon footprint.
More sustainable meat production can still make a big difference
Eating less meat, or switching to lower impact meats such as chicken, eggs or pork is the most effective way for individuals to reduce their dietary footprint.
But if you want to eat meat, then the choice of meat also matters. Consumers can have an impact, but so can food producers.
The world is not going to abandon livestock farming completely – at least not any time soon. And there are a number of reasons we wouldn't want it to: it is not only an important source of income for many, but can also be a key source of nutrition in local settings. Particularly in lower-income countries where diets lack diversity, small amounts of meat and dairy can be an essential source of protein and micronutrients.
Globally, greenhouse gas emissions are massively skewed towards high-impact producers. This can be seen at the bottom of our visualization. The red curve shows the sum of all protein products.
Most of the protein we produce is relatively low-impact: 75% of production has a footprint between -3 and 11 kgCO2eq per 100 grams of protein. This creates just 30% of protein's emissions.
High-impact production – with a footprint greater than 11 kgCO2eq – produces just 25% of our protein, but 70% of its emissions. To put this 'high-impact production' in context: the top quarter of protein production emits more than five billion tonnes of CO2eq each year. This is more than the EU's total annual greenhouse gas emissions from all sectors.7
Much of this skew, as we've already discussed, comes from the differences between plant-based sources and meats such as beef and lamb. But a lot comes from the large variations in footprint for specific products.
There is much more variation in the footprints of beef, lamb, dairy, and aquaculture production than for other foods. This is because there are large differences in the intensity and practices used in ruminant livestock, and fish farming across the world. This is different from poultry and pig farming: 61% of pork, 81% of chicken and 86% of eggs are produced intensively in industrial-farm settings.8 These systems are very similar wherever they are in the world.
One factor which explains a lot of the variation for beef is whether it's sourced from a dairy herd (where the cattle also produce milk) or a herd dedicated to beef production. Just under half (44%) of the world's beef comes from the dairy sector. And it produces 60% lower emissions because its footprint is shared with dairy co-products.
Geography also plays a role in the large variations we see for beef, lamb and aquaculture: farming approaches are often adopted in line with local conditions such as soil fertility, terrain and temperature.9 Opportunities for food producers to reduce emissions are therefore very specific to local conditions.
But there are some general recommendations that are clear from the research: improving degraded pasture; improving lifetime animal productivity; increasing oxygen flow in aquaculture ponds, particularly in warm climates; and avoiding the conversion of forests and peatlands for agriculture will all make a difference.10 Land use change can play a large role in the final emissions; this means beef from South America often has a high footprint due to deforestation. Good pasture quality is also important: climate has a strong impact on this, but effective management practices can also make a difference; New Zealand, France and the UK are some examples where footprints are often lower.
If we want to reduce the emissions from our food, there is massive scope for both consumers and producers. For producers, understanding and adopting best farm and land management practices can mitigate the highest impacts of production.
As consumers, the biggest difference we can make is to eat more plant-based sources of protein such as tofu, nuts, peas, and beans. This is the case regardless of where you are in the world.
The mean emissions from beef very much depend on whether it's sourced from dairy herds or from dedicated beef herds. Beef from dairy herds tends to have a lower footprint since its footprint is essentially 'shared' with dairy co-products. The mean footprint of beef from dairy herds is 17 kgCO2eq; from dedicated beef herds it's 50 kgCO2eq. Around 56% of global beef production comes from dedicated beef herds; and 44% from dairy herds. The mean footprint is approximately 35 kgCO2eq [56% * 50 + 44% *17 = 35 kgCO2eq]. Note that if you use the median footprint, this figure is 25 kgCO2eq – more than 60 times higher than peas.
Poore, J., & Nemecek, T. (2018). Reducing food's environmental impacts through producers and consumers. Science, 360(6392), 987-992.
CO2 is the most important GHG, but not the only one – agriculture is a large source of the greenhouse gases methane and nitrous oxide. To capture all GHG emissions from food production researchers therefore express them in kilograms of 'carbon dioxide equivalents'.
To express all greenhouse gases in carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2-eq), they are each weighted by their global warming potential (GWP) value. GWP measures the relative warming impact one molecule or unit mass of a greenhouse gas relative to carbon dioxide over a given timescale – usually over 100 years. GWP100 values are used to combine greenhouse gases into a single metric of emissions called carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2eq). CO2eq is then derived by multiplying the mass of emissions of a specific greenhouse gas by its equivalent GWP100 factor. The sum of all gases in their CO2eq form provide a measure of total greenhouse gas emissions.
This 25 kgCO2eq figure represents the median emissions from beef production. You might notice that this is lower than our earlier figure of 35 kgCO2eq – this represents the mean emissions from beef. Because of the skew in production – a small number of producers create most impact – the mean and median values can be quite different.
Here, by 'largest impact' I have taken the 90th percentile value. This means that 90% of global pea, tofu or nut production has a carbon footprint less than this figure.
Here, by 'lowest impact' I have taken the 10th percentile value. This means that only 10% of global production has a carbon footprint below this figure.
The European Environment Agency reports that the EU's total greenhouse gas emissions in 2017 were approximately 4.5 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalents.

Jahangir Khan — Pakistan squash legend who took the sport to new heights
Jahangir Khan is a former world No. 1 professional squash player from Pakistan, who is considered to be the greatest player in the history of the sport. Born on 10 December 1963 in Karachi, Jahangir is originally from Neway Kelay Payan, Peshawar. During his illustrious career he won the World Open six times and the British Open a record ten times. From 1981 to 1986, he was unbeaten in competitive play. During that time he won 555 matches consecutively, the longest winning streak by any athlete in top-level professional sports as recorded by Guinness World Records. He retired as a player in 1993, and also served as President of the World Squash Federation from 2002 to 2008.
Jahangir was coached initially by his father, Roshan Khan, the 1957 British Open champion, then by his late brother Torsam Khan. After his brother's sudden death he was coached by his cousin Rehmat Khan, who guided Jahangir through most of his career. Jahangir was physically very weak as a child. Though the doctors had advised him not to take part in any sort of physical activity, after undergoing a couple of hernia operations his father let him play and try out their family game. In 1979, the Pakistan selectors decided not to select Jahangir to play in the World Championships in Australia, judging him too weak from a recent illness. Jahangir decided instead to enter the World Amateur Individual Championship and, at the age of 15, became the youngest-ever winner of that event. In November 1979, Jahangir's older brother Torsam, who had been one of the leading international squash players in the 1970s, died suddenly of a heart attack during a tournament match in Australia. Torsam's death profoundly affected Jahangir. He considered quitting the game, but decided to pursue a career in the sport as a tribute to his brother.
In 1981, when he was 17, Jahangir became the youngest winner of the World Open, beating Australia's Geoff Hunt (the game's dominant player in the late-1970s) in the final. That tournament marked the start of an unbeaten run which lasted for five years and 555 matches. The hallmark of his play was his incredible fitness and stamina, which Rehmat helped him build up through a punishing training and conditioning regime. Jahangir was quite simply the fittest player in the game, and would wear his opponents down through long rallies played at a furious pace. In 1982, Jahangir astonished everyone by winning the International Squash Players Association Championship without losing a single game. The unbeaten run finally came to end in the final of the World Open in 1986 in Toulouse, France, when Jahangir lost to New Zealand's Ross Norman.
With his dominance over the international squash game in the first half of the 1980s secure, Jahangir decided to test his ability on the North American hardball squash circuit in 1983-1986. Hardball squash is a North American variant of the game, played on smaller courts with a faster-moving ball. Jahangir played in 13 top-level hardball tournaments during this period, winning 12 of them. He faced the leading American player on the circuit at the time, Mark Talbott, on 11 occasions (all in tournament finals), and won 10 of their encounters. With his domination of both the softball and hardball versions of the game, Jahangir truly cemented his reputation as the world's greatest squash player. His success in North America is considered by some observers to be among the factors which led to growing interest in the international 'softball' version of squash in the continent, and the demise of the hardball game in the late-1980s and 1990s.
At the end of 1986 another Pakistan squash player, Jansher Khan, appeared on the international scene to challenge Jahangir's domination. Jansher then went on to beat Jahangir in their next eight consecutive encounters and capture the 1987 World Open title. Jahangir did not win the World Open again after 1988, but he continued a stranglehold over the British Open title which he captured a record ten successive times between 1982 and 1991.
Time Magazine has named Jahangir as one of Asia's Heroes in the last 60 years. Jahangir Khan conferred with an honorary Doctorate of Philosophy by London Metropolitan University for his contributions to the sport. Due to his immense and absolute dominance in squash he was nicknamed 'The Conqueror'.

Does anyone issue bearer bonds?
How much do bearer bonds give?
A bearer bond, like an ordinary bond, is a type of fixed-income security. In contrast, the holder (or bearer) of a bearer bond owns the bond instead of the registered proprietor. Beyond the above statement, you might ask, what are real bearer bonds really worth? Continue reading to find answers to these questions. Let's fly!
Unlike standard bonds, bearer bonds are not registered as investment vehicles and are issued by governments or corporations. They are similar to conventional or traditional bonds in that they have a coupon interest rate and a time to maturity.
In the late 1800s, these bonds were initially issued in the U.S. as a means of financing post-Civil War infrastructure. Due to the ease with which they could be moved, these investments became extremely common almost immediately. Because only a small number of certificates were required to issue billions of dollars in these bonds, the process of transacting was greatly streamlined. Similar bonds were also issued throughout Europe and South America, which were then used in their respective financial markets.
When a bearer bond has attached coupons that can be redeemed by an authorized representative for biannual interest payments, it is known as a coupon bond.
The transactions and receipt of interest on bearer bonds are all completely confidential because of the nature of the instrument. These security concerns indicate that these bonds are vulnerable. The following is what I mean by the above statement:
Bearer bonds vary from registered bonds, which means that earnings generated from these bonds are not reported to the IRS. This means that people can easily evade taxes by hiding their earnings and investments from the government. These bonds have been utilized by unscrupulous people to cheat taxes over the years due to the fact that it is easier for bondholders to simply not disclose their income on them.
Because of the confidentiality that bearer bonds provide, it is quite simple for their owners to accumulate huge sums of money and move those funds around.
In order for fraudsters to utilize bogus bearer bonds as currency, they just need to create a large number of them.
Owners of bearer bonds can easily engage in money laundering due to the ease with which they can obscure the source of these bonds. There is nothing more they need to do than enter the money they earned from a legitimate bearer bond issuer.
This is why these bonds don't actually have a lot of benefits for people with integrity about their finances. There have been various government prohibitions on these bonds throughout the years because of these security concerns, which have rendered them a relic of history.
Bearer bonds resemble cash in one respect because of their confidentiality. For example, if you lose a bearer bond, you won't be able to get it back because there are no documents associated with it. As a result, natural catastrophes like fires or floods can cause enormous damage. Stealing falls under the same category. Because a bearer bond cannot be tracked, you run the risk of losing it if it is stolen. Interest payments can be complicated by misplaced coupons. For the successors of bearer bond owners, not having any documentation becomes a big challenge.
That's the big important question. With the way things are going, do bearer bonds still have any worth at all? Let's find out.
Bearer bonds are way too risky and you can lose everything within a day. (The above heading proves that). The value of bearer bonds depends on the individual. Many have assets through them, irrespective of their dubious means of acquiring them.
However, bearer bonds are considered history, and so is the value. Moreover, bearer bonds are risky enough to get one jailed, so it is not really worth it. The decision is still yours to make. If bearer bonds are worth the risk for you, then you can shoot your shot. If it isn't, then there are always better ways to invest.
Bearer bonds are like any other form of debt. Some corporations and governments issue them to raise the money they need to continue their growth and functions. In regards to principles, these bonds are very comparable to ordinary bonds given the following:
On the completion date of bearer bonds, the bondholder receives his or her invested money back. The bondholder must produce the documentation to the bank in order to enjoy this. If a bond is "called" before its completion date, it may be possible to redeem it before its deadline.
Coupons for interest payments are part of bearer bonds. The issuers of these bonds pay interest on a regular basis. Those that hold the bonds must provide a coupon to the supplier in order to claim their interest.
As a result, bearer bonds can be leveraged to lend and loan money in the same way as mortgages and banks can. This implies that the creditor can make a loan in the form of bonds and will be reimbursed, together with interest, when the bonds are due to mature.
The person who owns the bearer bonds is entitled to interest payments as they become due. Despite the fact that they can be sold on a regular basis, the bonds must be properly kept because their ownership is everything. When a bond's terms and conditions are written down, the legal owner is the person who has the actual document. The safety of bonds must be ensured. Since the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982, no new bearer bonds have been issued in the U. S.
It is the legal owner's responsibility to register these bonds. Amounts negotiated on behalf of for-profits are only paid to registered owners as of the interest payment date. Only registered owners will be contacted. Despite the fact that the majority of registered bonds are now preserved in electronic form rather than with paper certificates, only the registered owner has the legal right to interest, irrespective of who owns the actual bond document.
The 1982 Act on Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility (TEFRA)
As a result of TEFRA, there will be no bearer bonds. The IRS was unable to collect all of the money owed to bearer bondholders due to the obvious challenge of locating the holders of those bonds. It can now be purchased by certain foreign nationals as an incentive for international investment.
Yes! And if you'd like to redeem your bonds, send them to the bond agent that conducts redemption on behalf of the issuer. A Form W-9 from the Internal Revenue Service must be enclosed, as well as a letter of instruction. When the bond agent receives this letter, he or she will know who to pay and where the payment should be made. Sign both the W-9 and the instruction letter. Send mail that is both insured and certified if you want to be sure it arrives.
State and local governments are exempt from the prohibition on issuing bearer bonds. However, there are a few states that allow new bonds. These bonds must be reported to the relevant state agency by their purchasers. It has been more than 30 years since it was first issued by the Treasury Department and select firms. No federal income tax is applicable to bond income because it is payable outside of the U. S. When bonds are produced and redeemed, the laws of the nation where they were made must be adhered to.
In order to redeem the interest payments, the bearer bond is a physical certificate with coupons attached. A bearer bond's owner is the person currently in possession because their ownership is not registered. Bearer bonds are just as susceptible to theft or loss as cash.
As a result of their usage in criminal activities, bearer bonds have been virtually prohibited from being issued in the United States since the 1980s; however, BB that were issued before this period may still be redeemed provided the issuer is still in business.
The Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 included a provision that finally rendered BB unnecessary in the US. The Act did not directly forbid the bonds, but it did eliminate the issuer's interest payment tax benefit.
Bearer bonds do not have the security of the investor's name attached, unlike traditional bonds, therefore anyone having the physical certificate can cash it in.
The bond is nearly hard to retrieve when it is lost due to theft, destruction, etc. because the real owners do not have their names registered on it. In these situations, there is no recourse.
There are still a few BB in existence since some of those that were issued before the ban had maturities of 30 years or more. BB does not pay interest after maturing or being summoned for early redemption, just as registered bonds.
Bond investments can generate income in two different ways. The first step is to keep those bonds until they mature and earn income from them. Typically, interest on bonds is paid twice a year. Selling bonds for more than you paid for them at first is the second technique to make money with bonds.
Bearer bonds, unlike standard bonds, are not registered as investment vehicles and are issued by governments or corporations. Because of its confidentiality, it's very simple to transfer and evade taxes which is its advantage of it over others.
The main purpose is to avoid paying taxes and money laundering.
To prevent money laundering, tax evasion, and other illicit activities, bearer bonds have largely disappeared in the United States and most other nations.
Not in the US, because they are exempt from US taxation. However, they are the most common type of foreign currency bond issued.
It depends. These bonds in the Cayo Perico Heist's are valued in the midpoint of what participants could possibly earn: Sinsimito Tequila: $900,000 (average) or $990,000 (hard) Ruby Necklace (hard) $1,000,000 (normal) and $1,110,000 (sale): Ordinary Bearer Bond: $1,000,000 (the standard), but they can be purchased for $1,210,000 (hard)

BORROWING FROM 401K: All You Need To Know


It's Saturday and I'm joining up with my friends to download on the week that's just zoomed by. I show up a few minutes early, and as I glance around for them, I notice that our meeting place is already packed. I shouldn't be surprised, I live in New York City, after all. Considering it's 9 a.m., however, and the spot in question is the Central Park running loop, where we plan to scratch miles off the week's to-do list, I somehow am anyways.
Unlike the gym, which is dominated by bulked-up bros, the path around the park seems to be filled predominantly with women (yeah, a few dudes can be spotted here or there, doing their best shirtless Bachelor audition impressions). But I imagine that in these tense times we're living in, these women are here for the same reason that I am: to decompress mentally and connect emotionally with their friends.
And while they're connecting, these women are pushing themselves to smash PRs and log never-before-seen mileage. Quicker paces and packed race courses are the epitome of women supporting women, and I for one, can't get enough of it.
According to the 2017 National Runner Survey done by the Running USA organization, this Saturday snapshot in my city is a microcosm for what's happening with the sport at large. Data from the survey suggests that the sport is 63 percent female and about 74 percent of runners fall between the ages of 25 to 54, with the majority of them classifying themselves as mid-way between occasional jogger and serious athlete. Check. check. check.
Though not everyone can win the marathon, the wins that come along the way—the community, the anxiety relief, the endorphins produced—serve as evidence of progress in motion. We runners gain so much ground with every single step along the journey—working through the walls, going with the pain, rejoicing when hard work pays off, playing a game of scheduling Tetris to make the damn thing happen in the first place—that the job of runner starts to sound an awful lot like the job of being a woman.
So as the season of running and our own United States of Running program finds its legs, I'm happy to sign off with the chorus, set to the tune of clicking laces on the pavement: There's never been a better time to female runner. Go, girls.

El poni de Lisa, llamado Lisa's Pony en la versión original, es un capítulo perteneciente a la tercera temporada de la serie animada Los Simpson, emitido originalmente el 7 de noviembre de 1991. El episodio fue escrito por  Al Jean y Mike Reiss y dirigido por Carlos Baeza. Después de que Homer decepciona a Lisa se le ocurre una idea para recompensarla: Comprarle un poni a pesar de los problemas económicos.

Sinopsis

Todo comienza cuando Lisa llama a Homer porque la lengüeta de su saxofón se rompió y necesita otra urgentemente, ya que había una exhibición de talentos en la escuela. Homer es el único al que le puede encargar comprarla, cuando llega a la tienda de artículos musicales ve que la taberna de Moe está al lado y decide ir a tomar un trago faltando 5 minutos para el cierre, pese a que Moe le sugiere que vaya primero a la tienda.

Cuando Homer termina y quiere ir a comprar la lengüeta, pero cuando sale, se encuentra con que la tienda ya está cerrada; sin embargo, el dueño estaba en la taberna, quien ya no quiere abrir la tienda pero al final Moe lo convence de abrir su tienda por unos minutos para venderle a Homer. Sin embargo, Homer tarda mucho en recordar para qué instrumento era la lengüeta, lo que lo hace llegar demasiado tarde al espectáculo de Lisa y justo a tiempo para ver a su hija tocando su saxofón desafinado frente a todo el público, derramando lágrimas por la vergüenza e impotencia.

Lisa queda muy enojada con Homer y a pesar de que él trata de reconciliarse, convive mucho y trata de ser el mejor padre para ella, no consigue que Lisa lo vuelva a querer. Durante una noche en la cama Marge sugiere que le compren un poni que la niña que siempre había querido pero después cambia de parecer y le dice a Homer que no lo compre y para hacer que su hija lo ame de nuevo, decide hacerlo.

Sin embargo, los precios de los caballos son muy altos; el más barato costaba cinco mil dólares. Para poder pagar el poni, Homer pide un préstamo que otorgaba la Planta Nuclear. El Sr. Burns en persona revisa la solicitud de préstamo, y acepta darle el dinero a Homer, aconsejándole que no se comiera al poni ni hiciera nada fuera de la ley.

Lisa queda maravillada con su regalo y comienza a amar a Homer más que nunca pero Marge se enoja con Homer por lo que hizo después de que ella se lo advirtió y Homer se entera que además de tener que pagar el préstamo de los cinco mil dólares que había costado el caballo, había que también mantenerlo caramente al mes en el establo, y para poder afrontar el gasto, Homer toma un segundo trabajo, como asistente nocturno de Apu en el Minisupermercado/badulaque.

Al tener dos trabajos y estar fuera de su casa prácticamente todo el día (sólo regresaba durante cinco minutos, para dormir), Homer comienza a agotarse cada vez peor. Finalmente, Marge le revela a Bart y Lisa que trabaja triple turno para mantener el caballo. Lisa entendiendo que su padre no puede seguir así, decide con mucho dolor devolver el caballo a su dueña, haciendo que Homer pueda volver a su vida normal. Luego Lisa va a verlo al supermercado y le dice lo que hizo por él y que lo ama muchísimo más que a ese caballo.

En respuesta, Homer renuncia efusivamente al trabajo del Minisupermercado/badulaque tirándole en la cara la camiseta del uniforme, mientras Apu en vez de molestarse lo ve feliz cargando en sus hombros a su hija al mismo tiempo que decía "se dormía, robaba, era grosero con los clientes y aun así, ahí va el mejor empleado que ha tenido un minisupermercado/badulaque".

Producción
"Lisa's Pony" fue escrito por Al Jean y Mike Reiss, que eran show runners de los Simpsons cuando se produjo el episodio. Según Reiss, ser un show runner de espectáculos es un trabajo estresante ya que tiene que supervisar todos los procesos por los que pasan los episodios. Jean y Reiss trabajaban aproximadamente de 80 a 100 horas a la semana cuando se les asignó escribir un episodio además de su trabajo habitual. "Lisa's Pony" fue escrita entre las 10.00 p. m. y 1.00 a.m. todas las noches después de haber terminado su jornada laboral de 12 a 14 horas. Se les ocurrió una idea mientras revisaban una lista de los intereses de Lisa, y Jean le dijo a Reiss: "A Lisa le gustan los ponis; [deberíamos] darle un pony". Mientras escribían ideas para la historia, decidieron explorar las consecuencias de tener un pony en una casa suburbana.

Referencias culturales

La escena en la que Lisa se encuentra la cabeza de caballo en la cama hace referencia a la película El padrino, y cuando entra a la alcoba de sus padres cabalgando el poni se escucha la música de la película "Los siete magníficos".  Homer recargándose en el monolito es una referencia a las primeras secuencias de "El amanecer del hombre" en  A Space Odyssey. La escena donde Homer seca las lágrimas de Lisa con un secador de pelo es una referencia a una escena similar del episodio de la primera temporada Bart the General, donde Homer seca las lágrimas de Bart de manera similar. En la escena en la que Homero se queda dormido mientras maneja, la música que suena es una versión instrumental de Golden Slumbers de los Beatles.

In a keynote speech on the opening day of Ecobuild, Minister of State Greg Barker re-committed the coalition to delivering the "Flagship" Green Deal programme in the Autumn.
Smaller installers are no longer required to submit a Surety Bond prior to Green Deal Accreditation, and Installers will non longer have to make arrangements for independent arbitration for disputes with customers, as Barker announced a Green Deal Ombudsman.
The detail is still being finalised, but Barker pointed to exciting technologies in heating, glazing, lighting, and smart controls, and mentioned technologies such as flue gas recovery and waste water recovery as up for consideration in the future.
A stronger link between Green Deal and the Renewable Heat Incentive will be encouraged so consumers will see investment in a single proposition.

What Will Happen After Trump Nixes TPP?

President Donald Trump is reportedly getting very close to yanking the United States out of the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
This week, two sources familiar with the matter reportedly told CNN that the president plans to sign an executive order to withdraw from the negotiating process of the 12-country trade agreement. (The countries that agreed to the Trans-Pacific Partnership in 2015 were the U.S., Canada, Malaysia, Australia, Japan, New Zealand, Mexico, Peru, Chile, Singapore, Brunei and Vietnam.)
Throughout his campaign, Trump was vocal about his plans to keep the U.S. from moving forward with the sweeping trade deal, known as TPP. He later doubled down on his rhetoric: In a video message, Trump said that on the first day of his presidency he would issue a notification of intent to withdraw from TPP.

According to CNN, a senior White House official said the executive order on TPP is expected to be the first Trump will issue today, and it will become the administration's first major action on foreign policy.
Trump's stance on trade has put him at odds with the fashion industry, particularly with brands such as Nike and major trade organizations, including the American Apparel & Footwear Association (AAFA) and the Footwear Distributors & Retailers of America (FDRA), which were major proponents of TPP.
Matt Priest, president and CEO of the FDRA, said in November that his organization believes that the nixing of the TPP could be the end of an unprecedented opportunity to not only lower production expenses but also slash end costs to consumers and create more American jobs — something that Trump also campaigned on.
"We had a once-in-a-generation opportunity within our grasp. We had a Republican Congress and a Democratic president who wanted to pursue this," Priest said. "We had a half a billion dollars in savings during year one and $6 billion in duty savings over a decade — those are big numbers, and they mean a lot."
TPP supporters also believe the deal's demise signals a new opportunity for China to strengthen its influence — something it is already aggressively pursuing via its Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), which notably excludes the U.S., as the TPP excluded China.
Bart van Ark, chief economist at The Conference Board, said last year that he believes tearing up the TPP "could backfire" on the U.S., particularly when it comes to China.
"China was not part of that agreement, and therefore [the end of TPP] creates more room for China to push forward its own agreement within the region," van Ark said.
Priest shared those sentiments. "It seems kind of nonsensical to scrap an agreement that would help us build our economic relationships in the region against a rising Chinese influence and also help American consumers. Now, two of those things have gone away, instantly," Priest argued.

As with all things in life, setting goals is highly important when dieting. When you are looking at things and being honest and objective you will notice that many of the things you've accomplished in life have been accomplished because you had a goal and also had a clearly detailed plan and well thought out process for achieving your goal. That being said, why is goal setting very important when it comes to a great diet plan?
First because it is difficult to achieve a goal if you do not have a clearly defined goal. There are times in ones life when it is impossible to tell whether you are going to succeed or fail because you aren't certain with what the desired outcome should be anyway. Identifying your dieting goals well before hand eliminates this particular unwanted possibility.
Second, having dieting goals gives you a measuring stick by which you can judge your process. This is very important so that you know when your efforts are failing big time and when you're moving along schedule as planned. Lets put it this way, you will know when to celebrate and give yourself a big reward and when to give yourself a swift talking to.
Now that we know why we set weight loss goals, let's discuss how we should go about setting those goals that are so important for dieting success. You need to set goals that are obtainable without being impossible for you to achieve. If you set goals hap haphazardly that are beyond your ideal reach you will discover that frustration will be your best friend or dieting partner until you reach the time where you give up all together and have no results to show for it. In order to avoid this type of failure you should take well care to insure that your goals are possible for you to achieve.
Another thing about goals you must consider is that you want to hold yourself accountable but you shouldn't call the whole thing off if you only lose 9 pounds instead of 10. Instead, find out where you dropped the ball for the final pound and set your 10-pound goal for the next month.
You should also take good care that you are working hard with your personal goals and not the goals that someone else is insisting on or pushing you to do. The fact is that if it's personal to you, it will be much more rewarding than if you are doing this for someone else. If your heart isn't in it, there are very few goals that are going to motivate you properly.
Last but not least, you must establish a small (non-food) rewards budget for accomplishing your dieting goals. Perhaps your reward will be a new accessory for your new (or new old) wardrobe or a pedicure for your new good look. Make your reward something fun and frivolous and teach yourself that accomplishing your goals can be accomplished by something other than food. This is a key understanding to dieting success.
Remifemin Side Effects are important to acknowledge when setting goals for dieting. Get the best resources available on Remifemin at www.Remifemin.org for your weight loss needs.
How to work out lower abs to get it firm and tight is something that many so wanted, but only few have ever succeed. A six pack abs carries not only a challenge but also the skills on how to properly execute the routines. Your abdominal muscles in particular require intense work out as they are not easily toned. But if you understand on the dot the exercises to take on, and how to do them effectively then it's possible to attain the abs that you have always wanted. These 7 practical approaches have been proven to effectively work on your abdominal muscles.
1. Leg Raises. Lay plane on your back and put your hands under your tailbone to protect it. Then lift your legs while keeping your feet together to place a strain on your lower abdominal muscles. When you are doing this routine do not lift your legs to the point where the pressure begins to rest, and you should never allow your feet to rest on the floor. When properly executed, leg raises place a series of constant tightness recurring on the lower abdominal muscles.
2. Hanging Knee Raises. Hanging from a pull-up bar, you pull your knees up toward your chest. You want to pull your knees as close to your chest as you can, and try to avoid lowering your legs to the point where your abs have a possibility to rest. Using straps to help support your weight while you do this workout will be helpful.
3. Sitting Knee Raises. While sitting on the edge of a bench or chair, pull your knees up toward your chest. It's important to keep your neck and back straight in the course of this exercise so that you can get the maximum result.
4. Rest. Just like any other muscle group in your body, your abdominal muscles need rest in order to get stronger throughout the duration of your routines. You wouldn't bench press every day so you definitely shouldn't train your abs every day either. At the very least, coaching session of three to four times a week needs a one day off in between training days; to give your abs the time they need to recuperate which in return will give you better results.
5. Resistance training. In order to truly show the results of the intense abdominal exercises you are doing, you will need to lower your body fat. Participating in resistance training with an emphasis on light body weight and extensive repetition of the routines will help you build muscle tone and lower body fat.
6. Aerobic coaching. Much like resistance training, aerobic exercises are a key element of cutting down body fat which will enable your abs to show. By employing intense aerobic training together with your ab exercises you will enjoy the best and desirable results that you really want.
7. Diet. The last and quite possibly the most important aspect of any fitness program is diet. When your goal is to get a six pack then you need to diet. A diet that fit this description needs to be very high in lean proteins, with low levels of fats and carbohydrates. You can spend hours in the gym, but if you are fueling your body with foods that are unhealthy then the results will be less desirable.
A six pack is challenging. You don't have to take the guess work out of how to get the results that you want. Because these seven strategies on how to work out your abs have been proven to be very effective.

Sarah McLachlan was born on 28 January 1968), and adopted in Halifax, Nova Scotia. As a child, she took voice lessons, along with studies in classical piano and guitar. When she was 17 years old, and still a student at Queen Elizabeth High School, she fronted a short-lived rock band called The October Game. One of the band's songs, "Grind", credited as a group composition, can be found on the independent Flamingo Records release 'Out of the Fog' and the CD Out of the Fog Too. It has yet to be released elsewhere. Her high school yearbook predicted that she was "destined to become a famous rock star."
In 1997, Sarah McLachlan married her drummer, Ashwin Sood, in Jamaica. McLachlan lost her mother to cancer in December 2001, while McLachlan herself was pregnant. McLachlan gave birth to a daughter, whom she named India Ann Sushil Sood, on April 6, 2002, in Vancouver. By this time, McLachlan had already completed three-quarters of the production on her next record, Afterglow. On 24 June 2007, she gave birth to her second daughter, Taja Summer Sood, in Vancouver. McLachlan announced her separation from Ashwin Sood in September 2008.


With winter here, I have all the family's coats and hats hanging on the back of doors and chairs. Not quite the stylish look I'm aiming for, so I particularly like the look of this rather fetching coat-rack, which also has very green credentials.
As you can see, the Nara coat stand is sculpted like a tree and basically you can hang stuff on it from each branch.
The stand is part of the Nara furniture range of rather beautiful tables and chairs by London-based Japanese designer Shin Azumi.
Essentially, the coat stand is crafted using the good quality off-cuts of wood from the rest of the range that would otherwise be thrown away. Which seems like a pretty good idea to me, plus it looks good. Standing 180 centimetres high, with branches high and low, it will hold a lot of coats!

Step Up the Fight
The Global Fund Seeks to Raise at least US$14 Billion to Step Up the Fight Against AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria
The Sixth Replenishment
The Global Fund is calling on the world to step up the fight against HIV, TB and malaria. We are just months away from a crucial moment in the fight against the diseases. In October 2019, President Macron will host the Global Fund's Sixth Replenishment Conference in Lyon. This Replenishment seeks to raise at least US$14 billion to help save 16 million lives, avert 234 million infections and help the world get back on track to end these diseases. Of the at least US$14 billion, the Global Fund is calling on the private sector to mobilize at least US$1 billion to step up the fight.
Stepping up the fight should not be seen as a choice, but as the fulfilment of a promise. This moment presents us with an opportunity to take a massive step toward achieving Sustainable Development Goal 3: health and well-being for all. We have no time to waste and we are calling on the world to step up the fight. Now.
Ending the epidemics of HIV, tuberculosis and malaria by 2030 is within reach, but not yet fully in our grasp. With only 11 years left, we have no time to waste. We must step up the fight now.
The Investment Case, Presented by Peter Sands
Meet Zolelwa
Dr. Zolelwa Sifumba of South Africa tells the story of her fight to beat multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. "TB is seen to be a dirty disease that can only infect a certain kind of person. But the truth is that anyone can get TB. The only thing that makes us susceptible to TB is the fact that we breathe. That's the message I'm pushing: TB is all of our problem because we all breathe."
People like Zolelwa are the frontline faces of the fight against HIV, tuberculosis and malaria.

Meet Martha
Martha Clara Nakato was 14 years old when she learned she had been born with HIV. At first gripped by fear, she fought to overcome the misconceptions in her community. Today she is an advocate for young people living with HIV. "I believe that my story can break the stigma and discrimination in the communities and I also believe my story can empower other people living with HIV to keep strong."
People like Martha are the frontline faces of the fight against HIV, tuberculosis and malaria.

Aftab Ansari left his village in northern India to work as a diamond cutter in Mumbai. But his dreams for a better life for his family suffered a blow when he got drug-resistant tuberculosis. Aftab, 32, is today back at work and paying his debts after completing the treatment that cured his TB.
Infectious diseases like TB put an enormous financial burden on households worldwide, particularly in lower-income countries, draining billions in medical costs and lost productivity.

Goodness Mbatha and Nqabile Mbatha are more than mother and daughter, and their bond is clear to all who meet them. When Goodness got pregnant with Nqabile at 23, she knew she was living with HIV. She enrolled on treatment to prevent passing HIV to Nqabile and succeeded.
To end high HIV infections among young women and girls in the country, the Global Fund partnership is investing in programs that challenge harmful gender norms, discrimination, and violence against women.
Meet Chang Chai
Chang Chai is a construction worker from Myanmar living on the outskirts of Chiang Mai, Thailand. He's the go-to guy for health information in the settlement of about 10 migrant families.
Solutions require action and engagement at all levels – from volunteer community leaders like Chang Chai, to robust civil society organizations like MAP and national policies that support achieving universal health coverage.
The Global Fund / Fonds mondial / Jonas Gratzer
US$14 billion for the Global Fund would...
Help get the world back on track to end HIV, tuberculosis and malaria:
Save 16 million lives between 2021 and 2023, reducing the mortality rate by 52 percent across the three diseases by 2023, relative to 2017 levels.
Reduce the death toll across the three diseases to 1.3 million in 2023, down from 2.5 million in 2017, and from 4.1 million in 2005.
Avert 234 million infections or cases reducing the incidence rate by 42 percent across the three diseases by 2023, relative to 2017 levels.
Accelerate progress toward SDG 3 and universal health coverage:
Strengthen health care systems through directly investing approximately US$4 billion to build capacities such as diagnostic tools, surveillance systems, supply chain management and training for health care workers, and accelerating the shift toward patient-centered, differentiated models of care.
Reinforce health security by helping build more resilient health systems, with stronger surveillance, diagnostic and emergency response capabilities, and by directly tackling key threats to global health security, such as multidrug-resistant TB.
Yield a return on investment of 1:19 with every dollar invested resulting in US$19 in health gains and economic returns, further contributing to the achievement of the overall SDG agenda.
Spur domestic investment of US$46 billion toward ending the three diseases and strengthening health systems through cofinancing requirements, and technical assistance on health financing.
Tackle inequities in health including gender- and human rights-related barriers to access, by working with partners, including civil society and affected communities, to build more inclusive health systems that leave no one behind.
With a Sixth Replenishment of at least US$14 billion for the three-year cycle beginning in 2020, the Global Fund would contribute to achieving these results alongside sustained levels of other external funding scaled-up domestic financing, and more innovation, collaboration and rigorous execution.
To achieve the SDG 3 targets of ending the epidemics and creating resilient health systems to deliver health and well-being for all, we must step up the fight now.

Ian Malcolm
'Jurassic Park' Profile: Ian Malcolm
Jurassic Park III (mentioned)
Jurassic World (mentioned)
Jurassic World III (upcoming)
Chaotician
"Life cannot be contained. Life breaks free. Life... finds a way"
—Ian Malcolm(src)
Dr. Ian Malcolm is a mathematician who specializes in a branch of mathematics known as "Chaos Theory". Malcolm is one of the main characters of the Jurassic Park franchise as well as the main Protagonist in the The Lost World: Jurassic Park. Malcolm appears in both novels by Michael Crichton. Malcolm serves as the mouthpiece of Crichton, who called Malcolm the "ironic commentator" on the action.[1] In the movies, Malcolm is portrayed by Jeff Goldblum. Malcolm also appeared in most other Jurassic media like comics, video games and toy lines.
Ian Malcolm was invited to the park by Donald Gennaro as an insurance consultant as Donald apparently felt that Ian, as a fiduciary, would be able to notice any dangerous shortcomings the park had. On the helicopter ride to Isla Nublar, he met John's consults, Paleobotanist Ellie Sattler and Paleontologist Alan Grant, and travelled with them, along with John and Donald, into the park where he was stunned by the astonishing sight of a living Brachiosaurus. He then travelled to the visitor's center and learned how the dinosaurs of the park were created and watched an infant Velociraptor hatch. While his colleagues remained in awe of the event, Ian expressed scepticism of the Park's ability to control the animals they were breeding, and explained to his colleagues that "life finds a way".
Chased by the Tyrannosaurus rex
Ian later went on the tour through the Park only to express disapproval when none of the dinosaurs showed themselves. Bored, he took to flirting with Ellie, much to Alan's chagrin, while attempting to explain chaos theory. After watching the sick Triceratops, he returns to the tour with Alan Grant, only to have it break down in front of the Tyrannosaurus rex paddock. The T. rex escapes and attacks Donald's car, which Donald had earlier abandoned with the children inside. In an attempt to lure the rex away, Ian and Alan grab and ignite flares to cause a distraction, but Ian mistakenly keeps moving after throwing his flare and is chased to the bathroom, where he is tossed several feet and injures his leg before becoming unconscious.
However, Ian was fortunate enough to be hidden from the rex's sight after being covered in leaves following the bathroom's destruction, though the same cannot be said for Donald, who ends up being devoured by the rex. Alan escapes with the kids and Ellie and Robert Muldoon arrive to help Ian, only to be set upon by the Tyrannosaurus. Having put Ian in the jeep, they escape after a short but intense chase.
Ian is brought to the control room where he helps formulate a plan to restart the power. Ian is brought to a bunker where he and John talk Ellie through the process of turning the power back on. After the systems come back online, Ian and John drive back to the visitor's center to pick up Alan, Ellie, and the kids, all of whom then drive to the helicopter, leaving the island.
Malcolm in The Lost World
"The Lost World" takes place four years after "Jurassic Park". After the events of the first film, Malcolm attempted to go public about his experience on Isla Nublar, only to be discredited by Hammond's nephew, Peter Ludlow, who went to great lengths to make Malcolm appear insane to the public, resulting in the revoking of his University tenure. This is further complicated by Malcolm's book being an open violation of the non-disclosure agreement he signed prior to the events of the first movie, further damaging his ruined career. Despite these events, Malcolm managed to develop a relationship with an accomplished biologist named Sarah Harding. By the start of the second film, Malcolm is a shell of his former self, openly mocked in public and no longer expressing his beliefs in Chaos Theory.
Malcolm is eventually summoned to John Hammond's mansion, where an ill Hammond reveals to a shocked Malcolm the nature of Site B; a separate island where the dinosaurs were bred before being moved to the main island. Hammond then unveils his plan to send a team of researchers to the island to photograph the animals in their natural habitat in order to create public sympathy and discourage corporations, such as Ludlow's InGen, from profiting off the island. Malcolm, who is invited along, initially declines but changes his mind when Hammond reveals that Sarah was also hired and has already left for the island. Malcolm then meets up with Hammond's other men, Eddie Carr and Nick Van Owen, and makes preparations to leave for the island.
Upon arrival, the team immediately begins searching for Sarah using a satellite phone, and eventually find her following a herd of Stegosaurus. After a brief encounter with the creatures, they return to the trailer, where Malcolm finds out that his daughter, Kelly, has stowed away on board. He attempts to convince Sarah to leave with him but is interrupted when a fleet of helicopters bearing the InGen logo and carrying various automobiles arrive over the island. The team follows the new arrivals and watch as they chase down various dinosaurs in jeeps and violently capture several of the creatures. That night, they watch as Ludlow, who is in charge of the group, gives a presentation to his shareholders and announces his plan to recreate Jurassic Park in San Diego. He is interrupted however when Sarah and Nick set the captive dinosaurs loose from their cages, destroying the camp. In an attempt to avoid the chaos, Malcolm takes Kelly back to the trailer, and later, to the high-hide when Sarah and Nick arrive at the trailer with an injured infant Tyrannosaurus. However, after hearing the unmistakable bellows of the infant's parents, Malcolm leaves the safety of the hide and runs on foot back to the trailer just as the adult Tyrannosaurs arrive, and helps return the healed infant to its parents. However, the tyrannosaurs remain unimpressed and, seeing the trailer and its inhabitants as a threat, promptly push the trailer until it hovers precariously over a cliff. After barely saving Sarah from falling, Malcolm and Nick are rescued by Eddie who, in the process, is devoured by the Tyrannosaurs.
The three are then helped back onto the cliff by Roland Tembo, who is in charge of Ludlow's team. With all of InGen's equipment and automobiles destroyed, Roland decides that an uneasy alliance is the best method for escaping the island. Reunited with Kelly, Malcolm and his team agree to trek to the destroyed facility at the island's center. Along the way, Malcolm attempts to coerce Ludlow into realizing the error of his ways, but is unsuccessful. That night, the team is set upon by the tyrannosaurs, who followed the smell of the infant T.rex's blood on Sarah's jacket. The team is separated in the chaos, with most of them being chased in a massive stampede to a waterfall. Malcolm, Sarah, Kelly, and Nick end up separated from the InGen group, who are ambushed by Velociraptors in the long grass surrounding the facility. The four make it through the grass unharmed, but Ian is briefly hurt and Nick goes on ahead to call for help. Eventually Ian, Sarah, and Kelly follow, only to be attacked by three raptors. They eventually escape the compound where they board a helicopter that Nick called in, departing the island for good.
Unfortunately however, their troubles are not yet over as they eventually find that Tembo has tranquilized the
buck Tyrannosaur and the team are bringing it back to the mainland. Ian and Sarah try to visit the dock where Ludlow is holding a press conference when the freighter holding the animal suddenly crashes through the dock, releasing the Rex. As the animal goes on a rampage through San Diego, Malcolm and Harding drive to the site of the new Park and retrieve the infant. They then find the father and lure him away using the infant. After a brief chase, they bring the animals back to the freighter and drop the infant in the cargo bay, where it is followed by a greedy Ludlow, as well as the adult rex, who mutilates Ludlow with the infant finishing the process of executing him. Malcolm then re-boards the ship and closes the cargo bay, locking the beast inside.
In the aftermath, Malcolm is last seen resting on his couch with Sarah, while Kelly watches a news program showing the freighter returning to the island. The public finds out that Malcolm was telling the truth and his reputation is restored.
Dr. Malcolm is mentioned by Alan Grant and Eric Kirby in a conversation. Eric disliked the book Malcolm had published, calling him "preachy" and "high on himself". Eric also states that Malcolm talked too much about "chaos". Alan smiled and remarked "that's two things we have in common", though his tone indicates he is not being entirely serious.
After Zara had collected Claire Dearing's nephews, she briefly read one of Malcolm's books, during their trip to the hotel. Another one of his
Ian's book in Jurassic World .
books is seen inside the Control Room.
"These creatures were here before us and if we're not careful they're going to be here after. We're going to have to adjust to new threats we can't even imagine. We've entered a new era. Welcome, to Jurassic World."
—Ian Malcolm (src)
Ian Malcolm appears for the first time testifying before a congressional committee. He talks to the committee about whether Nublar's dinosaurs should be rescued or not, for him the dinosaurs should not be rescued because the humans have this great technology in their hands and have shown to be unable to control it.
Malcolm reappears at the end after the dinosaurs have escaped and now live in the world free, Malcolm says a new era will arrive and the humans and the dinosaurs must prepare to live together and then says "Welcome to Jurassic World."
Along with Dr. Alan Grant and Dr. Ellie Sattler, Ian Malcolm was one of the consultants who was hired by John Hammond to provide information to aid in building Jurassic Park. Along with Dr. Grant and Dr. Sattler, Malcolm was invited by Hammond to visit his theme park on Isla Nublar and give his opinion on it. Malcolm was the most pessimistic of the consultants and was confident from the beginning that the park would fail.
Malcolm went along with the others on a tour of the park. When disgruntled computer programmer, Dennis Nedry, shut down the power in the park to gain access to frozen dinosaur embryos, he inadvertently caused the electrified fences to shut down, allowing the dinosaurs to escape from their enclosures. When the T. rex escaped and attacked one of the cars near its paddock, Malcolm, who was in the other car, panicked and ran outside. The T. rex then chased him and picked him up in its jaws, then shook him and threw him down. Malcolm broke his leg in the fall.
Muldoon and Gennaro later found Malcolm and took him to the Safari Lodge, where he was taken care of by Gerry Harding. He was administered morphine and spent the rest of the novel giving emotional rants about science and philosophy while attempting to help the others survive. His condition continued to deteriorate, and by the time the Costa Rican Air Force finally arrived at the end of the novel, he was assumed to have died.
The novel begins with Ian Malcolm giving a lecture on Extinction and Chaos Theory. Though he was declared dead at the end of the first novel, he explains that the declaration was premature. After the lecture, while he and Sarah Harding were having lunch, they were approached by a rich, pompous paleontologist named Richard Levine who wanted Dr. Malcolm to help him find a "lost world", where "extinct" creatures may have actually survived from antiquity. Ian refuses to go several times, but his curiosity eventually gets the better of him, and he and Richard set out to find Site B. He injures his leg once again during a T. rex attack but, nevertheless, survives and escapes. During this expedition, he called John Hammond a hustler, and that his only true talent was raising money.
Ian started out as being cocky, sarcastic and a bit of an annoying know-it-all, described as a "rockstar" by John Hammond. He had an audacious sense of humor, even in times of great danger, which was rarely appreciated by others. By the time of the second film, his personality had been dragged more down to Earth, resulting in his attitude growing more serious and cautionary. He also was shown in the films to be unreliable, and not realizing that people didn't trust him because of that. By the time of the fifth film, an aged Ian has grown very weary and less eccentric, though retains his sense of dramatic flair to prove a point.
Ian can be considered a voice of reason, as he was the first to voice his concerns over the ethics of resurrecting dinosaurs. Despite this, he eventually concedes to the fact his warnings were ultimately ignored, and has accepted that mankind has brought down it's own destruction by ignoring the obvious danger of toying with nature.

"See! See! I'm right again! Nobody could have predicted that Dr. Grant would suddenly-suddenly jump out of a moving vehicle!" [Ellie follows Alan out of the car, calling his name] "There's uh, another example. [chuckles] See, here, now I'm sitting by myself, uh, uhh, talking to myself. That's-that's chaos theory."

"Boy, do I hate being right all the time."
"That is one big pile of shit."
"[Sarcastically] Remind me to thank John for a lovely weekend."

Hammond: "I'm not making the same mistakes again."

"Ah, where you're going is the only place in the world where the geese chase you."

"Mommy's very angry."
Ludlow: "Hammond's reach exceeded his grasp; mine does not."
Malcolm: "Taking dinosaurs off this island is the worst idea in the long, sad history of bad ideas. And I'm gonna be there when you learn that."
"Just fed? I presume you're talking about Eddie? Hey, you might show a little respect! The guy saved our lives by giving his!"
"They say talent skips a generation, so I'm sure your kids will be sharp as tacks."
Sarah: "Ian, Ian, slow down a little."

Ian: (to Peter Ludlow) "Now you're John Hammond."
"Hang on to something!"
Sarah: "How are we going to find him?"
Ian: "Follow the screams."
"These creatures were here before us and, if we're not careful, they're gonna be here after."
"Life cannot be contained."
"Life breaks free."
"Life... finds a way."
"We've entered a new era. Welcome to Jurassic World."
"Change is like death. You don't know what it looks like until you're standing at the gates."
"Humans and Dinosaurs are now gonna be forced to co-exist."
"I think... that we should allow our... magnificent, glorious dinosaurs, to be taken out by the volcano."
Chaos Island: The Lost World
Malcolm appeared in Chaos Island: The Lost World, as one of the playable units in the game. He moves slower than the other characters due to the wounds he sustained in the first film.
Jurassic Park: Builder
He's one of the characters to appear in Jurassic Park: Builder.
Ian Malcolm appears as a character in the video game Jurassic World. He can light flares to illuminate dark areas and solve puzzles with his mathematics skills.[2][3][4]
Jurassic World: Evolution
Ian Malcolm appears in Jurassic World: Evolution, with Jeff Goldblum reprising the role.[5]
He is a playable character in The Lost World: Jurassic Park (SEGA Genesis Game), for Player 2.

He is a playable character in Jurassic Park (mobile game), alongside Dr. Grant.
Ian will be getting his own figure in Mattel's line.
Malcolm seemed to have died in the first novel, but in the second novel, it is revealed that he was merely unconscious and still alive, likely to correspond with the film canon, in which Malcolm survived. It also makes a note to state that he was only 'slightly dead' and a lot of press reported his death. It took about 6 months to recover from his injuries and he walks with a cane more often than not. It is also worth noting, there are only 2 (3 at a stretch) comments on his death in the first novel, all of which are characters points of view, more than reports of true events.
The trauma experienced in the first film, and the resulting fallout from his public discreditting have changed Malcolm's personality drastically in the second movie, though he retains his sense of humor and sarcasm.
Malcolm was to return in Jurassic Park III, although Goldblum dropped out from the film early, feeling there was no reason for his character to take part in the events of the film.[citation needed]
Kyoryu Black of Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger (a Super Sentai series), Ian Yorkland is named after him.
Malcolm's quote "There haven't been any visitors on this island. There's no reason for it to fear man." in The Lost World (novel) was later used by Robert Burke in The Lost World: Jurassic Park (film).
Excluding Dinosaurs, Ian and Henry Wu have made the most appearances of any characters with a total of three films, as well as being referenced in Jurassic Park III and Jurassic World.
In the official trailer of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Malcolm recites his famous "Life finds a way" quote, although this did not make it into the final cut of the film.
