  • Carbon Trading, Climate Change, Environmental Sustainability and Saving Planet Earth
    Paper no. PA21A-1292 Carbon Trading, Climate Change, Environmental Sustainability and Saving Planet Earth Wyss W.-S. Yim Guy Carpenter Asia-Pacific Climate Impact Centre, City University of Hong Kong and Department of Earth Sciences, The University of Hong Kong E-mail: [email protected] 1. Introduction The effectiveness of carbon trading (reducing CO2 emission) to combat climate change in order to achieve greater environmental sustainability and/or saving planet Earth for prolonging the survival of future generations of the human race is examined. 2. Is CO2 emission the most important driver of climate change? The answer is not a resounding yes. The inconvenient truth is that CO2 was singled out conveniently as the number one enemy of climate change by many particularly those who are not Earth scientists. Even though the present CO2 level has reached ca. 389 ppm exceeding the highest level in 800,000 years in Antarctica ice cores (Fig. 1), great uncertainties exist on the effectiveness of carbon trading as a solution to the problem of climate change. Other measures with probably smaller uncertainties presented here will also be necessary. Fig. 1 CO2, δD and CH4 records in Vostok and EPICA ice cores. 3. Environmental sustainability as an ideal Sustainable development was defined by Brundtland in 1987 as development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It is however impossible to achieve because it requires Earth’s natural systems to be in an overall long-term balance. Therefore we can only work towards greater sustainability.

  • Greening Wildlife Documentary’, in Libby Lester and Brett Hutchins (Eds) Environmental Conflict and the Media, New York: Peter Lang
    Morgan Richards (forthcoming 2013) ‘Greening Wildlife Documentary’, in Libby Lester and Brett Hutchins (eds) Environmental Conflict and the Media, New York: Peter Lang. GREENING WILDLIFE DOCUMENTARY Morgan Richards The loss of wilderness is a truth so sad, so overwhelming that, to reflect reality, it would need to be the subject of every wildlife film. That, of course, would be neither entertaining nor ultimately dramatic. So it seems that as filmmakers we are doomed either to fail our audience or fail our cause. — Stephen Mills (1997) Five years before the BBC’s Frozen Planet was first broadcast in 2011, Sir David Attenborough publically announced his belief in human-induced global warming. “My message is that the world is warming, and that it’s our fault,” he declared on the BBC’s Ten O’Clock News in May 2006. This was the first statement, both in the media and in his numerous wildlife series, in which he didn’t hedge his opinion, choosing to focus on slowly accruing scientific data rather than ruling definitively on the causes and likely environmental impacts of climate change. Frozen Planet, a seven-part landmark documentary series, produced by the BBC Natural History Unit and largely co-financed by the Discovery Channel, was heralded by many as Attenborough’s definitive take on climate change. It followed a string of big budget, multipart wildlife documentaries, known in the industry as landmarks1, which broke with convention to incorporate narratives on complex environmental issues such as habitat destruction, species extinction and atmospheric pollution. David Attenborough’s The State of the Planet (2000), a smaller three-part series, was the first wildlife documentary to deal comprehensively with environmental issues on a global scale.

  • Transitioning to “Geocratia” the Jus Semper Global Alliance
    The Jus Semper Global Alliance Living Wages North and South Sustainable Human Development May 2020 BRIEFS ON TRUE DEMOCRACY AND CAPITALISM Transitioning to “Geocratia” the People and Planet and Not the Market Paradigm — First Steps Álvaro J. de Regil ollowing up on my commentary to the March 2020 Great Transition Initiative (GTI) forum: F “Planetise the Movement”,1 I assess the diverse ideas discussed in the forum and concurrently elaborate with far more detail in this essay how I envision the first steps to materialise the change of paradigm from the current unsustainable market- centred ethos to a global movement that rescues our planet and provides sustainable life systems for our future generations and all living things. The implicit premiss in the forum is that there is already a movement yearning to transition from the current paradigm to a new truly sustainable one; in fact it is presumed that we are already in a trajectory that will shape a new planetary society, albeit because of cultural, social, and political fissures,2 the outcome is still uncertain. In 2002, the GTI published a seminal paper: “Great Transition — The Promise and Lure of the Times Ahead”. It assesses the underlying causes of the complete unsustainability of world development and advances a long-term alternative scenario that examines the requirements to build a new sustainable paradigm by identifying strategies, agents for change and values for a new global agenda.3 In December 2017, the GTI revisited the issue, focusing specifically on “How Do We Get There?”4 What becomes evident is that there is indeed a growing number of people that have arrived at the conclusion that we cannot remain in the current unsustainable market-driven paradigm if we want to bequeath a planet where future generations of all species can enjoy a dignified quality of life.

  • On Saving Planet Earth
    introductory eco-guide on saving planet earth by sunflair vintage Becoming Aware of Mother Earth Hey friend! First of all, I am so excited for you to dig into this guide. I think you will find so many useful tips that fit right into your lifestyle. Before I let you flip through the details, I want you to take a minute to think about where your interest in this guide came from. No matter if you’re “eco-curious” or a certified environmentalist, I want to remind you that together we are here for one thing: to give our love to Mother Earth. This goes beyond ditching straws and Styrofoam. We are guests on this planet, and we must be grateful to get to share this space with so many other beautiful living beings. To really love Earth, you have to love these beings too. It’s about devel- oping a respect for the powers of nature. It’s about becoming aware of your surroundings. It’s easy to get caught up in our own minds. Our problems. Our lives. When you start to become less aware of the “I” and become more aware of the “we”, caring for the Earth becomes a lot easier. Signed, An Earth Sign just don’t give up just don’t give Okay great, now that we’ve moved past the statement from the tree-hugger, I want to remind you of something even more important. Yeah, it’s difficult to change. Yeah it’s gonna be hard. Yeah you’re going to want to take the easy way out.

  • Dan-Brockington-Celebrity-And-The
    More praise for Celebrity and the Environment ‘More exposé than a tabloid. More weight than a broadsheet ... Brockington lends academic muscle to what, I suspect, many of us instinctively feel about these issues. Extensively researched yet winsomely written and, thankfully, not veering into cynicism which a book on this subject could easily do. Enlightening and easily accessible by the armchair environmentalist.’ Terry Clark, St Luke’s Church, Glossop ‘I was surprised by this book. Anything containing the mere word “celebrity” will normally see me heading for the hills at speed, let alone a whole book on the subject! Dan’s book is written with wit and grace. His research was clearly meticulous and the result is a book that is informative and enjoyable.’ Robin Barker, Countrycare Children’s Homes ‘In an analysis that builds on a large literature examining interlinkages between conservation and corporate interest, Dan Brockington turns a new corner, investigating how the rich and famous lend their glamour to the noble goal of saving the planet. In reality conservation is a highly political pursuit with winners and losers. Brockington provides a well- balanced account of the pros of harnessing the razzamatazz of celebrity to the conservation cause with the cons of sanitizing the harsh realities of conservation politics and the insidious danger of commoditizing nature. If you want to embark on the journey in to contemporary conservation you would go well with this book.’ Monique Borgerhoff Mulder and Tim Caro, University of California at Davis ‘A thoroughly stimulating book that made me question my role as a conservation filmmaker.’ Jeremy Bristow, director and writer About the author Dan Brockington has a PhD in anthro- pology from UCL and is happiest conducting long-term research in remote rural areas.

  • Campaign Strategy Newsletter 100 January 2017 Planet Earth II: A
    Campaign Strategy Newsletter 100 January 2017 Planet Earth II: A Threat to Saving Planet Earth? Despite me even wanting to be David Attenborough when I was a child, and loving the cinematic spectacle of nature in the BBC’s record-breaking Planet Earth II, I agree with BBC Springwatch presenter Martin Hugh-Games who argued in The Guardian that such nature blockbusters are not helping ‘save the earth’ because they create a sedating illusion that nature is abundant. My blog ‘Please David Attenborough: For Nature’s Sake, No Planet Earth III’ explores how these ‘blue chip’ nature Milms came to be, why they mostly (especially in the case of the BBC) don’t connect with conservation efforts or wider environmental issues, and proposes some changes the BBC might make to its output. Oh, and why they are big business, and why there should be a major movie about John Muir With nature in the end game, in my view it’s time for a rethink, and the ‘therapy for the audience’ rationale is not ethical. I’d be interested to know what you think. (See also this on giraffes) Trump: Don’t Over-InFlate Him Most campaigners and campaign groups were dismayed at the prospect of Donald Trump entering the Whitehouse. Fair enough, and there’s plenty to be concerned about. But campaigners must avoid reacting to fears of what Trump might do, rather than what he actually does. Indeed although there must be some wait-and-see, there are plenty of pointers to strategies that could be started now.
