Upaya pemerintah untuk meningkatkan konsumsi rumah tangga khususnya pada produk perikanan merupakan langkah penting dan strategis, terkait dengan peningkatan peran pasar dalam negeri dalam mengatasi tekanan krisis keuangan global yang sedang melanda Indonesia dewasa ini. Kajian bertujuan untuk menganalisis dampak peningkatan konsumsi rumah tangga pada produk perikanan terhadap perekonomian nasional. Kajian ini menggunakan data sekunder Tabel Input-Output 2005, Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS). Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa peningkatan konsumsi rumah tangga pada produk perikanan sebesar 11,54% akan berdampak meningkatkan output perekonomian sebesar Rp.10.031.490, pendapatan rumah tangga sebesar Rp.1.166.463 dan penyerapan tenaga kerja sebanyak 151.133 orang. Pemerintah hendaknya dapat mengimplementasi semua kebijakan dan program peningkatan konsumsi ikan dengan lebih sungguh-sungguh dan konsisten, sehingga konsumsi ikan per kapita per tahun dapat lebih ditingkatkan lagi. Di samping berdampak positif terhadap perekonomian, upaya peningkatan peran pasar domestik ini terkait dengan upaya untuk keluar dari tekanan krisis keuangan global. Tittle: Impact of the Increase in the Fisheries Product Consumption to National Economy.Increasing household consumption especially for fisheries sectors' product is an urgent and strategic government effort, since it is heavily linked to the goal of nullifying the threat of the recent global financial crisis through an effective role of domestic marketing. For that purpose, this research is aimed at analyzing the depth of the economic impact of raising household domestic consumption of fisheries sectors toward the Indonesian Economy, using Input Output analysis with secondary data (2005 I-O Table) acquired from BPS. Results showed that an 11.54 % raise in household consumption of fisheries sectors produce, could impact on a Rp. 10,031,490 increase in the total output, a Rp.1,166,463 increase in household income, and a 151,133 increase in new labor absorption. Thus, our government should implement every possible policy and program that increase fish consumption whole-heartedly and consistently, so that the annual per capita fish consumption could be pushed forward, since it is positively affecting the whole economy as well as it is importantly linked to the effort of getting out of the pressure of the global financial crisis.

Economic growth in the EU area rose markedly last year. Output expanded by more than 3 per cent in over half of the member countries, although growth was notably slower in the larger economies. The outlook continued to improve in the first half of this year. Growth in the first quarter was particularly buoyant. Eurostat figures indicate that output in the EU was some 3.3 per cent higher in the first quarter of 1998 than a year earlier. Although output rose by only 0.2 per cent in the second quarter, this was partly due to statistical distortions arising from the different number of working days in the quarter. Italy is the sole economy where growth has proved to be weaker than initially expected. The global financial crisis and slowdown in worldwide demand is expected to dampen EU growth somewhat next year, and we continue to be less optimistic than the European Commission about future prospects. Growth in the EU economies is projected to slow from 2¾ per cent this year to around 2¼ per cent in 1999.

In recent year, Korea relies on imports for most of the iron ore, the main raw material of rebar, resulting in CO2 pollution with lots of energy consumption. Hereupon, this study carried out the research on the energy consumption and CO2 emissions of the recycled rebar using the wasted steel from building demolition. For that, this study worked out the energy consumption and CO2 emissions in the process of generation, transportation and production of wasted steel and, on the basis of which, it conducted the comparative study with virgin materials. The major research results are as follows: First, the energy consumption and CO2 emissions of the recycled rebar were found to be highest in the process of its production at 89.2% and 85%, respectively. In addition, in the comparison between recycled rebar and virgin material, the former was found to be most advantageous in energy consumption. On the contrary, as for CO2 emissions, the recycled rebar showed a 88.3% reduction possibility of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions comparing to statistics of input-output analysis based on competition inducement coefficient, but it was found to be more disadvantageous from the perspective of GHG reduction than the statistics of input-output analysis based on non-competition inducement coefficient.

After two generations’ development driven by investment and external market resource from 1949 to 2008, china formed an export-oriented economy with an Outward Logistics System (OLS). China faces serious constraints from international market under the global financial crisis, which caused Logistics Jam and need Economical transformations to launch a new round of economic growth with more efficient Logistic system in next 30 years to ease jam and to support regional manufactory based on the local special resources for co-development. It would be the power to stimulate further economic growth.
