Recent data from the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) reveals that 2006 has been recorded as the warmest year on record and indications show that this trend will continue domestically and globally. In fact, the past nine years have all been among the 25 warmest years on record, a streak which the NCDC labels as “unprecedented” According to the NCDC report, five of the first seven months of 2006 were drier than average and when these conditions combined with unusually warm temperatures, drought was intensified across much of the United States. The NCDC attributes the burning of fossil fuels and El Nino as contributing factors to the rising temperatures, causing concerns over the potential for increased occurrences of drought and storms. As the world continues to address issues of global warming to help reduce the impact on today’s and tomorrow’s environment, viable market opportunities have arisen for companies pursuing solutions in this area. # # # Fairfield & Hays goal is to identify the point where market demand and technology intersect; and to select the business opportunity with the best vision, product offering and management team capable of achieving market leadership.
