Overcoming the Copenhagen Failure by Joseph E. Stiglitz

Pretty speeches can take you only so far. A month after the Copenhagen climate conference, it is clear that the world’s leaders were unable to translate rhetoric about global warming into action.The failure of Copenhagen was not the absence of a legally binding agreement. The real failure was that there was no agreement about how to achieve the lofty goal of saving the planet, no agreement about reductions in carbon emissions, no agreement on how to share the burden, and no agreement on help for developing countries.

CNN "Burning Bio-char" coverage on our "Terra preta" project in India

Our “Terra preta” project in India aims at promoting an innovative technology to produce and bury biochar to sequester carbon and improve soil fertility. This project distributes improved domestic cookers, and also carbonises agricultural waste through a process known as pyrolisis. The second branch of this process is the resulting production of so-called biochar, which is burried in the agricultural soils to achieve fertility gains. We are glad to work on these issues with the Indian-based NGO GEO. Find out more in this recent CNN coverage Read more

’Ecoligical debt in Africa’ by Andrew Simms

The elephant is still standing. And, still dead. Around its feet glisten hundreds of coins thrown by museum visitors. They could be wishes made on the soul of the departed animal. Or, small gestures of recompense in lieu of the fate of the land that was once its home. Room after room is full of animals stuffed and perched rigidly against crudely realised backdrops of African forest and grassland. Another long room surveys Africa’s global economic contribution, maps on the wall dissect and label each country, tagging them like the worn, stuffed big cats and apes, and fish pickled in jars. This is Africa as a cornucopia of natural wealth to be mined, harvested, picked, squeezed and taken. Read more
