Metsien ja soiden raivaaminen sellupuu- ja öljypalmuplantaaseiksi Sumatran saaren yhden provinssin alueella aiheuttaa vuosittain kasvihuonekaasupäästöt, jotka ovat suuremmat kuin koko Alankomaiden vuotuiset päästöt. Lisäksi metsäkato tekee norsuista ja tiikereistä yhä uhanalaisempia.

"Scelte energetiche e responsabilità verso le generazioni future" è il titolo dell'incontro pubblico che si terrà a Padova martedì 4 marzo alle 20.45. Promosso da Azione Cattolica Italiana con il patrocinio della Fondazione Lanza e della Fondazione Fontana Onlus, l'incontro, intende affrontare il tema divenuto di grande attualità per i comportamenti che modificano in modo radicale l’ambiente. "Come dobbiamo tenere in considerazione i diritti di coloro che verranno dopo di noi? Come dobbiamo porci il problema della redistribuzione delle risorse a livello mondiale, presenti e future, in conseguenza dei comportamenti attuali di una minoranza della popolazione?" - sono le domande a cui la serata cercherà di rispondere.

Ilmaston lämpenemisen vuoksi keksintöjä ja uusia ideoita on alettu tehtailla vauhdilla, jota ihmiskunta ei liene kokenut sitten teollisen vallankumouksen, todetaan YK:n ympäristöohjelman UNEPin uudessa vuosikirjassa (engl.). Ilmastonmuutoksesta voi raportin mukaan avautua "tie uudenlaiseen hyvinvointiin".

Insurance can help the poorest to cope with the consequences of global warming, say development experts. Paying small premiums than raising money after disasters is a better way to minimise damage. Insurance managers however say the frequency of droughts and floods can weaken such claims.

Per il terzo anniversario del Protocollo di Kyoto, Legambiente si è data appuntamento sabato scorso a Saline Joniche (Reggio Calabria) per la 'Giornata annuale di mobilitazione nazionale contro l’uso del carbone nelle centrali termoelettriche'. E nel suo dossier "No al carbone" riporta come le centrali a carbone italiane nel 2006 hanno emesso 42,2 milioni di tonnellate di CO2, il 30% delle emissioni del settore termoelettrico, per produrre solo il 14% dell'elettricità' nazionale. Da sabato scorso gli "elettricisti verdi" di Greenpeace stanno sostituendo lampadine incandescenti con lampadine a risparmio energetico: l'attività fa parte della campagna "Bando alle Incandescenti", lanciata lo scorso ottobre da Greenpeace per chiedere alle maggiori catene della grande distribuzione di rimuovere dai propri scaffali le lampade nemiche del clima. Il governo italiano ha già messo al bando le incandescenti a partire dal 2011.

Impoverished regions of South Asia will be hit first and hardest by climate change, along with southern Africa, say scientists. Under the circumstances the best strategy for agriculture is diversity not monocultures. Solutions from outside are unlikely to work so there will be a need for localised approach.
