Global warming, depletion of natural resources, violation of indigenous people’s rights, biodiversity loss and soil degradation all are major threats affecting tropical forests. It is the policy of the government of the Netherlands to do everything in its power to achieve the conservation and sustainable management of all types of forests. There is general consensus that tropical forests, as well as all other forests, should be properly protected because of their great value, but the debate on what exactly is this value of tropical forests is still going on at full strength. Tropical forests sustain a wealth of biodiversity, provide a wide range of ecosystems, services and products, and support livelihoods for millions of people. If these biological, economic and social values are acknowledged, then why is the destruction and degradation of forests still continuing? To what extent have appropriate valuation and market mechanisms been developed and implemented? Could they help revert destructive practises? Tropenbos International organised a two-day seminar on the 20th and 21st of March, 2002, to discuss forest values, and to support the development and implementation of appropriate financing mechanisms for the conservation and sustainable use of tropical forests. During this seminar a bridge between policy, management and research was constructed through debate. Science stated facts, interpretation by the different societal players differed and concepts were challenged. Over 250 scientists, managers and policy makers from 41 countries participated in the seminar and came up with recommendations. These recommendations were presented at the sixth Meeting of the Conference of Parties (CoP 6) of the Convention on Biological Diversity (The Hague, The Netherlands, April 2002) and the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD, Johannesburg, South Africa, August 2002). The seminar made it clear that new financing mechanisms are rapidly emerging and have potential role to play in forest conservation and management. Payments for carbon sequestration, in particular, appear to be a potentially economically attractive option. Also water funds, like taxes on drinking water and large industrial water users, represent promising financial mechanisms for the conservation of the hydrological function of forests. Another important outcome was that financing mechanisms for biodiversity conservation should generate revenues for local forest users and forest owners. Without their participation and measures for poverty reduction, financing mechanisms for forest conservation cannot be effective. This seminar was, in my view, a constructive element in the process of achieving the goal of the conservation and sustainable management of all types of forests. The proceedings of the seminar that you will find in this publication are a useful tool for us all in the development of policy to address the challenges of tropical rain forests. Giuseppe B. Raaphorst Director Nature Management Ministry of Agriculture, Nature Management and Fisheries vii Tropenbos International, Wageningen, the Netherlands viii Understanding and Capturing the Multiple values of Tropical Forests ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Tropenbos International (TBI) Seminar ‘Forest valuation and innovative financing mechanisms for conservation and sustainable management of tropical forests’ could only become a success with the support and dedication of many persons, to whom the organisers are very much indebted. We wish to express our gratitude to all involved in some way or another in the organisation, implementation and successful completion of the seminar. We trust that those not specifically mentioned will accept our thanks for their involvement in the seminar. The idea of organising the seminar started in March 2001 during a meeting of the Steering Committee of the European Tropical Forest Research Network (ETFRN) in Sweden. The director of Tropenbos International, Mr. Erik Lammerts van Bueren, expressed his interest to organise a seminar preceding the sixth meeting of the Conference of Parties of the Convention on Biological Diversity in The Hague. This seminar would be in close conjunction with the Meeting of the ETFRN Steering Committee and a meeting of the TBI General Board. The seminar would not have been possible without the generous contributions of the The Dutch Directorate General for Development Cooperation (DGIS) Dutch Ministry of Agriculture, Nature Management and Fisheries, The Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO), The Forest Research Programme of the Department for International Development (DfID-FRP), The Food and Agricultural Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) and the European Tropical Forest Research Network (ETFRN). Ms. Dr. Pita Verweij was responsible for the coordination of the contents of the seminar (background document) editing

    Chapter 36 Netherlands: The Pedophile Kingdom and Sodom and Gomorrah of the Modern World Joachim Hagopian Cover Credit: Nora Maccoby with permission http://www.noramaccoby.com/ The lineage of former Holy Roman and French nobility comprises today’s House of Orange-Nassau ruling over the constitutional monarchy of the Netherlands. The Dutch royalty owns major multinational corporations such as Royal Dutch Shell, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Philips Electronics and Holland-America Line.1 The royal family has evolved its interests as a high-level authority currently operating as a branch of the Vatican’s Roman empire, wielding considerable influence over such powerful entities as the Rand Corporation, Koch Industries, Princeton University (founded in honor of the House of Orange), some of the world’s largest banks including AMRO and investment firms like BlackRock,2 the largest financial asset management institution on the planet, worth an estimated $7.4 trillion in client assets.3 Coincided by design with the planned Corona scamdemic, this year BlackRock’s been busily bailing out the US Federal Reserve, buying billions worth of bonds to keep the house of cards economy from imploding, in one fell swoop in April seizing control over the US Treasury and Federal Reserve.4 This private, unelected monolith has monopoly control now over the entire US economy as the centralized economic chokehold over the global masses prepares to tighten its death grip noose over humanity.5 As the long planned implosion of the world economy goes up in smoke, by engineered design, this latest power grab amidst the so called pandemic crisis is all about consolidation of power and control into fewer and fewer hands, lending new meaning to the thoroughly bankrupted USA Corporation owned and operated by the financial juggernaut of “the Crown.”6 The stakes have never been higher in 2020.

Infrastructure integration of the Netherlands,’ in: Johan Schot, Arie Rip, and Harry Lintsen (eds), Technology and the making of the Netherlands. The age of contested modernization 1890-1970 (MIT Press/ Walburg Pers, 2010), 47-123. 2 Networked Nation: Infrastructure Integration of the Netherlands Erik van der Vleuten “The word landscape literally refers to creating land and space. Without humans there would be no landscape. This is the essence of the Netherlands.”1 Thus the Dutch presentation of their country at the World Fair 2000 in Hanover, Germany. Several government documents further elaborate this image: this shaping of Dutch space, and also of the Dutch economy and society, particularly relies on human-built material infrastructure, or “networks.”2 The Fifth National Policy Document on Spatial Planning 2000/2020, published in 2001, and the National Spatial Strategy (in 2006) explicitly portray the Netherlands as an evolving “network society” and a “network economy.”3 Unlike modern network society theorists focusing exclusively on information and communication technology, Dutch policymakers emphasize that this process is carried by the “entirety of roads, railways, waterways, pipelines and sewers, digital networks, seaports, airports and transfer points.”4 These networks are conceived of as a spatial layer mediating between the natural condition and social life, shaping “where people live, work, and spend their leisure time.”5 For one, “the activities of [Dutch] citizens and businesses occur in increasingly larger spaces, in both a physical and a virtual sense.”6 Successive governments of different political stripes have long agreed on this pivotal role of networks in Dutch space and society and the need to sustain and expand them, despite recurrent disagreements about the role of the central government in this undertaking.

  • Lessen Uit Crises En Mini-Crises 2019
    Lessen uit crises Lessen uit crises en mini-crises 2019 Redactie Vina Wijkhuijs Menno van Duin en mini-crises 2019 In deze achtste editie in de reeks Lessen uit crises en mini- crises worden vijftien bijzondere gebeurtenissen uit het jaar 2019 beschreven en beschouwd. Het jaarboek gaat onder meer in op de containercalamiteit in het Waddengebied, de tramaanslag in Utrecht, de moord op advocaat Derk Wiersum en de cyberaanval op de Universiteit Maastricht. Ook komen kleinere gebeurtenissen aan bod, zoals de stank- overlast in Alblasserdam, de kerkbrand in Hoogmade en de vermeende kaping op Schiphol. In elk hoofdstuk worden één of meer dilemma’s of thema’s beschouwd die zich ook in toekomstige situaties kunnen voordoen. Bestuurders en professionals werkzaam op het terrein van crisisbeheersing en veiligheidsmanagement kun- nen hier hun voordeel mee doen. Het inleidende hoofdstuk schetst de rode draden uit de casus. Centrale thema’s zijn: het belang van samenwerking en bestuurlijke afstemming bij bovenregionale crises, óók met de functionele keten die soms betrokken is, de boegbeeldrol van de burgemeester, de invloed van sociale media en de noodzaak en beperkingen van risico- en crisis communicatie.
