  • Appeal to the Greenlandic and Danish Governments Not to Abolish the Uranium Zero Tolerance Policy in the Danish Realm 1
    Appeal to the Greenlandic and Danish governments not to abolish 1 the uranium zero tolerance policy in the Danish realm Nuuk and Copenhagen, 26 April 2013 The following statement has been signed by 48 NGOs The newly elected Greenlandic government and the Danish government have given notice that they intend to abolish the uranium zero tolerance policy which has been in effect in the Danish realm for twenty-five years and was carried unanimously in the Greenlandic parliament. Hence, there could be several uranium mining projects underway in Greenland in the near future. The mining project in Kuannersuit at Narsaq in Southern Greenland could alone make Greenland the fifth largest uranium exporter in the world. In addition, there are uranium deposits at Illorsuit, Puissattaq, Ivittuut and Motzfeldt Lake in Southern Greenland, Sarfartoq, Nassuttooq, Qaqqaarsuk and Attu in Western Greenland and Randbøldal and Milne Land in Eastern Greenland, and there might be deposits that have not yet been discovered. WE APPEAL to the Greenlandic and the Danish governments not to abolish the uranium zero tolerance policy, because uranium mining could contaminate the vulnerable Arctic environment and lead to nuclear proliferation. WE APPEAL to the Greenlandic and the Danish governments to prevent the combination of rare earth elements and uranium mining and to work proactively to promote renewable energies and energy efficiency in the Danish realm, the European Union and the rest of the world. WE ALSO APPEAL to the Greenlandic and the Danish governments to discourage nuclear proliferation and promote global nuclear disarmament. THE REASONS FOR OUR APPEAL ARE THE FOLLOWING: In addition to substantial chemical pollution from sulphuric acid, uranium mining leaves behind millions of tonnes of tailings containing radioactive materials.

Cover illustration The cover design depicts mountains of the East Greenland Caledonian fold belt. The view, west of Mestersvig (located on map, page 4), is north over Bersærkerbræ and the northern part of the Stauning Alper to Kong Oscar Fjord with Traill Ø in the right backgro- und. The mountains up to 1800 m high are of the Neoproterozoic Eleonore Bay Supergroup. To the right: first author Niels Henriksen, for many years head of geological mapping at GGU/GEUS, and participant in field work in Greenland for more than 45 years. Frontispiece: facing page Major Caledonian syncline involving reactivated Archaean basement gneisses containing amphibolite bands. Overlying rusty coloured Mesoproterozoic metasediments (Krummedal supracrustal sequence) just visible in tight core of the fold. The intensity of deformation in the syncline clearly increases towards the core, where the basement gneisses become more strongly foliated. Some of the amphibolite bands were derived from cross-cutting basic intrusions, which are still discernable in the less severely deformed parts of the Archaean basement (Fig. 17, p. 31). The height of the section is c. 2000 m.

Abstract In order to investigate how Inuit Greenlanders in western Greenland are experiencing, responding to, and thinking about recent allegedly human-induced climate change, this dissertation ethnographically examines the lives of Greenlanders as well as Norse and Danes in the course of past historical natural climate cycles. My emphasis is on human endeavours to cultivate a future in the face of difficulties caused by climatic and environmental transformation. I recognize locals’ initiatives to carve out a future in the promotion of sheep farming and tree-planting in southern Greenland and in adaptation processes of northern Greenlandic hunters to the ever-shifting environment.

    Hjemmestyrets bekendtgørelse nr. 12 af 10. august 2006 om fastlæggelse af principper for fordeling af omkostninger til udregning af enhedsomkostninger for el, vand og kollektiv varme Historisk I medfør af § 18, stk. 3, og § 21 i landstingsforordning nr. 14 af 6. november 1997 om energiforsyning fastsættes: Kapitel 1 Formål og anvendelsesområde § 1. Formålet med bekendtgørelsen er at sikre en ensartethed i måden, hvorpå enhedsomkostninger opgøres for el, vand og kollektive varme. § 2. Bekendtgørelsen omfatter forsyningsvirksomheder, der er beskæftiget med indvinding, transmission, produktion og distribution af el, vand og kollektiv varme til den offentlige forsyning. § 3. Bekendtgørelsen fastlægger principperne for forsyningsvirksomheders fordeling af omkostninger til brug for udarbejdelse af et fordelingsregnskab, som er grundlaget for beregning af enhedsomkostninger, der opgøres for hver enkelt lokalitet. Kapitel 2 Fordelingsregnskab Årlig udarbejdelse per lokalitet § 4. Den enkelte forsyningsvirksomhed skal hvert år udarbejde et fordelingsregnskab baseret på samme data som årsregnskabet, gældende for hver enkelt lokalitet, jf. dog stk. 3. Ved lokalitet skal forstås hver enkelt by og hver enkelt bygd. Stk. 2. Såfremt to eller flere byer eller bygder forsynes af samme produktions- og distributionsanlæg regnes disse som én lokalitet. Stk. 3. Fordelingsregnskabet for varme opgøres for hver produktionsenhed med det dertil hørende distributionsnet på hver enkelt lokalitet, når det bliver regnskabsteknisk muligt, dog senest i 2010. § 5. Fordelingsregnskabet
