What do you think about legalizing rhinoceros ownership in the form of ranges or farms? This would give incentives for owners of rhinos to keep them alive so that they can harvest their horns over and over again, as opposed to the system we have today which encourages poaching . It would also give people who own rhino farms an incentive to promote breeding and population growth.

In general, we're against rhinoceros farming. I understand the economic arguments for it

So you acknowledge that rhino farming will increase the population of the dwindling population of rhinos, but you don't support it. Could you go into more detail why?

but it would be best if ranges made money from ecotourism

There's no reason why a rhino farm couldn't operate as an ecotourist destination and as a function of harvesting horns.

Hi Rochelle,

I've heard that most Japanese offices are somewhat archaic. In the west, the Japanese are seen as technologically advanced and savvy. However, I've heard that many offices are still stuck in the 90's (along with the Japanese economy). I.e, still using fax machines and other outdated technology. How much truth is there to this?

Second question - The Japanese economy has been in the tank for coming on three decades. What sort of impact has this had on the workforce in terms of morale and innovation?
