Renewable Security was a concept that evolved after the repeated hacks of analogue TV encryption systems in the late 1980s. Simply stated, rather than completely replacing a hacked TV encryption system, only part of it would have to be replaced to make it secure again. The decoders at that time often contained all of the conditional access control data in a microcontroller . This data consisted generally of the decoder s identity, the subscriber s identity number and subscription data. When the decoder was hacked, the whole system was effectively compromised as other subscriber identity data could be substituted and the hackers had control. This security model also more commonly known as the Embedded Secure Processor model as the secure processor, the microcontroller, was embedded in the decoder itself. The systems manufacturers countered with the Detachable Secure Processor model. In this security model, the decoder itself would not be the critical part of the system. The subscriber identity data and subscription details would be stored in a smartcard the Detachable Secure Processor. Any compromise of the smartcard could then be countered by issuing a new, more secure, smartcard to subscribers. Renewable Security is good in theory. It provides hackers with a moving target rather than a stationary one. In the VideoCrypt system, the initial expectation was that the smartcards would be replaced every six months thus making the emergence of a pirate smartcard less likely. In reality, changing or upgrading the smartcards on a widely used TV Encryption system can be expensive and is done as infrequently as possible. References John McCormac.

Original research date March 2008 Main Bioplastics Polyethylene Biopolyethylene also known as renewable polyethylene is polyethylene made out of ethanol , which becomes ethylene after a dehydration process. It can be made from various feedstocks including sugar cane , sugar beet , and wheat grain . ref http www.nnfcc.co.uk metadot index.pl?id 10220 isa Category op show. Life Cycle Assessment Workbooks for a Selection of Major Renewable Chemicals ref The final product polyethylene is identical to naphta or gas based polyethylene, therefore maintaining the physical properties for conversion into plastics products and also maintaining its recycling properties. The first plant World s first announced ethanol based chemical pole, totally integrated from sugarcane to polyethylene, was recently announced by The Dow Chemical Company , in conjunction with Crystalsev, a large sugar and ethanol producer in Brazil. ref http www.dow.com commitments studies sugar.htm Dow and Crystalsev Announce Plans to Make Polyethylene from Sugar Cane in Brazil ref The pole is said to be projected to produce 770 million pounds per year of renewable LLDPE linear low density polyethylene , will begin construction in 2008, and is slated to start production in 2011. The amount of ethanol needed to make one metric ton of polyethylene is roughly two metric tons, as dehydration takes half of the weight in water, from the sugar cane based ethanol, before converting into ethylene chem C 2 H 4 . Benefits One of the main environmental benefits of this project will be the sequestration of roughly 2 kg of CO2 per kg of polyethylene produced, which comes from the CO2 absorbed by the sugar cane while growing, minus the CO2 emitted through the production process. Over 1.5 billion pounds of CO2 will be annually removed from the atmosphere, which is equivalent to the fossil emission of 1,400,000 Brazilian citizens according to the Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center in 2004 ref http www.dow.com PublishedLiterature ... more details

It is often expressed as the quantity of resource embodied in unit cost e.g. litres of water per 1 spent on product. In national economic and sustainability accounting it can be calculated as units of resource expended per unit of GDP .
