No, this is not a musical. Definitely not a musical. It is an airing of some dusty memories. The fourth WCEH conjures memories of the first, in Copenhagen in August 2009. I was a minor player (so minor that my paper on tourism and environment was actually presented in Malmö, Sweden – a very nice place, by the way), but I was there.

The use of Child Labor is prevalent in China and students should be aware of the issue to avoid unintentional supportation. According to US News, China has very low manufacturing costs, and these lower costs lead to lower prices for consumers. Low manufacturing costs at face value are not the whole story.
