 <title> NATO without the USA?</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41861&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The President of the United States of America is increasingly violent in his criticism of the European Union. He is attacking it for its trade policy, is threatening it from the military point of view, and makes no bones about destabilising it. It is irksome to him in the international arena.
He is organising the systematic withdrawal of his country from all of the multilateral agreements and organisations which the USA has inspired or supported for a long time.</description>

 <title> G20 countries risk falling short of achieving Sustainable Development Goals</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41790&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>High income countries are falling short of the goals set three years ago by the United Natons, with Scandinavian countries a notable exception. EURACTIV.fr reports.
Three years after the adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by UN member states, the Bertelsmann Foundation and the Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDNS) paint a mixed picture of the progress made so far in their annual assessment.</description>

 <title> Experts decry exclusion of Africa’s local farmers in food security efforts</title>
 <link>http://www.ipsnews.net/2018/07/experts-decry-exclusion-africas-local-farmers-food-security-efforts/</link>
 <description>Joshua Kiragu reminisces of years gone by when just one of his two hectares of land produced at least 40 bags of maize. But that was 10 years ago. Today, Kiragu can barely scrape up 20 bags from the little piece of land that he has left " it measures just under a hectare.
Kiragu, who is from Kenya’s Rift Valley region, tells IPS that years of extreme and drastic weather patterns continue to take their toll on his once-thriving maize business. His business, he says, has all but collapsed.
But Kiragu’s situation is not unique. Effects of land degradation and desertification are some of the major challenges facing smallholder farmers today.</description>

 <title> Towards the 8th Worls Social Forum on Migrations</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41639&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The World Social Forum on Migrations (WSFM) will take place in Mexico from 2 to 4 November, 2018. The forum is part of a broader process of mobilizations:
• The Migrant Caravan that crossed from Tunisia to Italy and France, in coordination with the Central America Caravan by Mothers of Mesoamerica.
• The Together for Another Global Compact dynamic (in September 2018 with actions in sanctuary cities) as part of the Global Compact on Migrations and Refugees, carried out by the UN since 2015 and with a major multilateral meeting in New York in December 2018. Many civil society networks have taken up the debate and taken critical positions in this framework.</description>

 <title> The G20’s Misguided Globalism</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41334&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>This year’s G20 summit in Hamburg promises to be among the more interesting in recent years. For one thing, US President Donald Trump, who treats multilateralism and international cooperation with cherished disdain, will be attending for the first time.

Trump comes to Hamburg having already walked out of one of the key commitments from last year’s summit " to join the Paris climate agreement oeas soon as possible.” And he will not have much enthusiasm for these meetings’ habitual exhortation to foreswear protectionism or provide greater assistance to refugees.

Moreover, the Hamburg summit follows two G20 annual meetings in authoritarian countries " Turkey in 2015 and China in 2016 " where protests could be stifled. This year’s summit promises to be an occasion for raucous street demonstrations, directed against not only Trump, but also Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Russia’s Vladimir Putin.</description>

 <title> Dutch tulips, sub-prime loans and the trouble with regulating finance</title>
 <link>http://www.weforum.org/es/agenda/2017/03/la-cooperacion-financiera-internacional-sigue-siendo-crucial</link>
 <description>[...] The 2008 global financial crisis was exceptionally severe in the magnitude, breadth, and persistence of its effects, but it is one in a long series of financial crises stretching back centuries. Not only do crises cause financial losses for professional investors; more importantly, they impose high human costs for those who lose their jobs, homes, and savings. To protect their citizens, governments generally adopt an array of financial regulations designed to reduce the risk of a failure that could reverberate across the economy. These include balance-sheet standards, insider trading rules, broader conflict-of-interest laws, and consumer protections.</description>

 <description>These are nervous times for the world’s leaders gathering in Davos for the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting. Voters have spoken in Britain, the United States and Italy " and their voice has been interpreted as a middle class challenge to the establishment.

Elections are looming in the Netherlands, Germany and France. Several world leaders, including French President François Hollande, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, have opted to address voter concerns at home rather than attend WEF.</description>

 <title> 3 Key Tasks to Spur Climate Action in 2016</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=39780&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Earth Day 2016 was a momentous and historic celebration of international climate policy. The Paris Agreement, adopted last December, was signed by 175 countries, a record number of signers of an international agreement on a single day. Fifteen countries, most of them small island developing states, took the next step of formally joining the Agreement; others indicated their intention to do so this year.
The UN signing ceremony showed growing momentum for climate action, underscored by the clear statement of many leaders, ministers and other officials that they are committed to a zero-carbon, climate-resilient future.</description>

 <title> Champions Call to Reduce Global Food Loss and Waste</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=39143&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Today at the World Economic Forum’s annual summit in Davos, Switzerland, a coalition of 30 leaders launched Champions 12.3, an effort to create political, business and social momentum to reduce food loss and waste around the world. Champions 12.3 is a voluntary coalition of executives from governments, businesses, international organizations, research institutions, farmer groups and civil society (Box 1) dedicated to inspiring ambition, mobilizing action and accelerating progress toward achieving Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Target 12.3. The target aims to halve per capita global food waste at the retail and consumer levels, as well as reduce food losses along production and supply chains by 2030.</description>

 <title> The Lesson from Davos: No Connection to Reality</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=39126&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>So, let us agree on the lesson from Davos. The rich and powerful had all the necessary data for focusing on existential issues for the planet and its inhabitants. Yet they failed to do so. This is a powerful example of the disconnection between the concern of citizens and their elite. The political and financial system is more and more self reverent: but is also fast losing legitimacy in the eyes of many people. Alternative candidates like Donald Trump or Matteo Salvini in Italy, or governments like those of Hungary and Poland, would have never been possible without a massive discontent. What is increasingly at stage is democracy itself? Are we entering in a Weimar stage of the world?</description>

 <title> On the other side of the sky</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38979&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>It would be helpful " in fact, necessary " to read with a bifocal lens the outcome of the UN Conference on Climate Change that took place recently in Paris. This would allow us a closer look at a negotiating process that went on for years, and that spawned many other processes.
A pair of bifocals would help us de-code what happened in Paris and what the future will offer us. These lenses are made of other materials, you will never find them mentioned in studies of climatology, and you will not find them in the drawers of government leaders, businesspeople or non-governmental experts.
Putting ourselves on the side of the sky " which is nowadays darkened by a thick suffocating cloud of smog and disturbed by extreme weather events and altered migratory cycles " means assuming the feminine perspective of a mother who is rapidly being consumed by an unhealthy obsession with never-ending growth.</description>

 <title> Climate Action After Paris</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38933&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>At the United Nations climate conference in Paris, courageous and visionary leaders recognized that people rarely change the world when they work within the constraints of what they think is possible. The world hoped for an agreement, but most of us did not dare to dream of a deal that aspires to limit temperatures to 1.5° Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Paris delivered for the planet and for the poor.
The conference in Paris produced an agreement that went beyond our expectations. We must now move with ambition that matches this historic deal " one supported by nearly 200 countries. We are at a remarkable moment in the long battle to reduce harmful emissions, and we must capitalize on this global commitment to preserve our planet for future generations.</description>

 <title> Of Democracy and Climate – Two Lessons from Paris</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38921&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>But it is time to consider that the right wing in Europe (as well as in the United States), is going beyond nostalgia and xenophobia. Its growth in every European country is due to an expanding number of disaffected citizens, many of whom come from the working class and the poorest sections of society. They are citizens who once vote for the left, but have become frustrated with the decline of welfare structures, unemployment for them or their children, a state in retreat in favour of the market, growing social injustice, immigration felt as a threat, loss of national identity and strident corruption.
This has created a new category of what could be called oeeconomic nationalism” which wants to combat all forms of foreign intrusion, whether it be the European Union, immigrants, NATO or multinationals. The traditional parties are looked on as a self-referent mechanism of unaccountable elites, who are interested in perpetuation in power and do not deliver what citizens need. It is mix of xenophobia, nationalism, nostalgia for a past that was better, a call for an economy that enhances the nation without giving any space to foreign forces and institutions " it is a container large enough to accommodate a growing part of the electorate.</description>

 <title> Toward a Green New Deal</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38920&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The global agreement reached in Paris last week is actually the third climate agreement reached in the past month. The first happened at the end of November, when a group of billionaires led by Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos announced the creation of a $20 billion fund to back clean-energy research. On the same day, a group of 20 countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, India, China, and Brazil, agreed to double their investment in green energy, to a total of $20 billion a year.
Of the two pre-Paris announcements, it was that of the Breakthrough Energy Coalition (BEC) " Gates and his fellow entrepreneurs " that grabbed most of the headlines. This is not surprising, given the strong association in the popular imagination between innovation and the private sector. If a technological breakthrough is needed in the fight against climate change, whom should we expect to provide it, if not the wizards of Silicon Valley and other hubs of free-market innovation?</description>

 <title> The Net-Zero Imperative</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38916&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The world has reached an historic agreement on climate change. The deal concluded at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Paris commits countries to take steps to limit warming to oewell below” 2º Celsius relative to pre-industrial levels and to pursue oeefforts” to limit warming to 1.5ºC. It also obliges developed countries to provide $100 billion per year in assistance to developing countries. But, unfortunately, the final negotiations dropped the one number that truly matters for the future of our planet: zero.
That is the net amount of carbon dioxide we can emit if we are ever to stabilize the planet’s temperature at any level. Zero, none, nada. The Earth’s atmosphere-ocean system is like a bathtub filling up with CO2 and other greenhouse gases: The higher the level, the warmer the planet will be.</description>

 <title> Agreed climate deal offers a frayed life-line for the world’s poorest people</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38906&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>More than 190 countries have for the first time committed to climate action and the summit has created momentum throughout the year, with countries and parts of the business community making announcements toward tackling climate change. But the ambitious speeches from world leaders opening the summit were not sustained to the end game.
oeGovernments across the world have now come together in the global fight against climate change but must play catch up. We will be holding them to account with the millions of people who marched in cities all around the world so that dangerous warming is averted and the world’s poorest and most vulnerable communities get the support that they need.”</description>

 <title> Whose Lives Matter? A Crisis of Solidarity at the Climate Talks in Paris</title>
 <link>http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/33983-whose-lives-matter-a-crisis-of-solidarity-at-the-climate-talks-in-paris</link>
 <description>The medical anthropologist Paul Farmer once wrote that "the idea that some lives matter less is the root of all that is wrong with the world." For many in the United Nations climate negotiations in Paris this week, this idea is at the heart of disagreement on a pathway forward.
Climate change is not primarily an institutional, technological or scientific problem; it is a crisis of solidarity between nations and peoples globally. It is the belief that major polluting countries and wealthy people have more of a right to fill the atmosphere with carbon. It is the idea that the flooding of Miami under rising seas represents more of a catastrophe than that of Dhaka. It is the lack of a shared historical memory that links the suffering of the economically marginal and climate vulnerable to the imperialist actions of wealthy countries and corporations. It is the fact that some lives, and largely those of people of color, women and Indigenous peoples around the world, are treated as mattering less.</description>

 <title> Energy transition on the fast track</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38895&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>"The pace and extent of change are surprising and encouraging. People want the energy transition. We need an ambitious climate deal here in Paris and strong political support of the global energy transition. By reinforcing the current trends we can speed up solar and wind. But also we need to send the strong message to investors that the fossil fuel investments have to decline rapidly" says Stephan Singer, Director Global Energy Policy of WWF International.
 The assessment oeMegatrends in the global energy transition” shows that Germany, the largest European economy, is no longer a sole pioneer in renewables among the big economies.  The current economically, socially and environmentally beneficial roll out of renewables has the power to showcase the various options for a global energy transformation.</description>

 <title> Human Rights in Climate Pact Under Fire</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38884&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>A handful of countries were blocking human rights references in important parts of the climate change agreement as ministers gathered in Paris on December 7, 2015, to continue climate change negotiations, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch said today.
Norway, Saudi Arabia, and the United States have been criticized by some countries and nongovernmental organizations for seeking to eliminate key references to rights in the document. Chile, Costa Rica, Mexico, and the Philippines have advocated including human rights language.
The important role of respecting, protecting, and fulfilling human rights in relation to the impact of climate change on vulnerable populations has been increasingly recognized in international climate change negotiations. At the negotiations, groups including trade unions and coalitions representing indigenous peoples, women, youth, and people in small island nations have been particularly vocal in calling for strong rights language in the treaty.</description>

 <title> “The Paris Accords Will Cause the Planet to Burn”</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38881&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Nearly all of the world’s countries" about 186 to date" have promised to reduce emissions. The official report of these promises, when seen as a global plan, constitutes an announcement of disaster.
The challenge set in 2009 in Copenhagen was to avoid exceeding 2 degrees Celsius of global warming. The         official report would mean an increase in global temperature of between 2.7 and 3.9 degrees Celsius. In other words, actual warming could reach double of what was established as the maximum limit.
oeAnd 2 degrees Celsius was the roof of the roof, because many countries have warned that even with a 1.5 degree warming their countries could disappear, especially many island nations. With the Paris agreement, warming is going to reach more than double that figure.”</description>

 <title> Governing the Climate? States Can't Solve the Problem of Climate Change. It's Time for a New Strategy.</title>
 <link>http://www.huffingtonpost.com/don-tapscott/governing-the-climate-sta_b_8697596.html</link>
 <description>It's the first week of the 2015 UN Climate Change Conference (COP21). A defiant and resilient Paris, France - still under security lockdown following the horrific November 13 terrorist attacks - is proceeding as planned and hosting the leaders of 150 nations, along with 40,000 participants from 195 countries, to discuss solutions for global climate change.
This is an exciting time in climate collaboration: U.N. Secretary General Ban-Ki Moon told leaders: "A political moment like this may not come again. We have never faced such a test. But neither have we encountered such great opportunity."
However, all the discussion about a possible agreement among states overlooks a much bigger opportunity that is not on the table for discussion. To turn back the tide on climate change a new approach is needed that goes beyond national governments and engages all facets of society. To be sure countries are critical, as we need laws to price carbon and achieve reduction targets. But the overall battle can only be won if businesses, local and regional governments, power providers, transportation systems, corporations, other institutions and billions of citizens get involved. We need to mobilize of the resources of humanity, not dissimilar in scope to the two great world wars, but this time we will all be fighting for the same cause.</description>

 <title> UN: Human Rights Crucial in Addressing Climate Change</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38861&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Country delegates to the climate change meeting in Paris have overwhelmingly supported integrating human rights into the emerging international agreement, Human Rights Watch said today. The United Nations Conference on Climate Change, attended by more than 190 world leaders, continues through December 11.
Many country delegates have emphasized that effectively addressing climate change requires the protection of human rights, including the rights of indigenous peoples, women and girls, people with disabilities, and migrants and refugees. The current draft also emphasizes ensuring gender equality, food security, intergenerational equity, the integrity of natural ecosystems, and a just transition of the workforce.
oeClimate change disproportionately affects people who are already vulnerable, especially in countries with limited resources and fragile ecosystems,” said Joe Amon, health and human rights director at Human Rights Watch. oeIn the global response to climate change, we need to ensure that human rights are respected, protected and fulfilled.”</description>

 <title> From Good Intentions to Deep Decarbonization</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38851&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>In the run-up to the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP21) in Paris, more than 150 governments submitted plans to reduce carbon emissions by 2030. Many observers are asking whether these reductions are deep enough. But there is an even more important question: Will the chosen path to 2030 provide the basis for ending greenhouse-gas emissions later in the century?
According to the scientific consensus, climate stabilization requires full decarbonization of our energy systems and zero net greenhouse-gas emissions by around 2070. The G-7 has recognized that decarbonization " the only safe haven from disastrous climate change " is the ultimate goal this century. And many heads of state from the G-20 and other countries have publicly declared their intention to pursue this path.</description>

 <title> 10 action points towards a greener economy</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38848&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Moving the global economy to an environmentally sustainable footing will be a oeturbulent” experience. It will have profound implications both for the planet and the future of work. 
Many questions arise when discussing this topic, such as: how we can manage the transition so that it will work for all? What should be done to ensure that companies, workers and societies benefit from the move towards a green economy? How can the transition bring decent work and social justice to all? 
The change in policies at global and national level is critical. But the need to act is on all of us " collectively and individually.
The real success of the 2015 Paris Climate Conference  will depend on the contribution from each of us, wherever we work and live.</description>

 <title> New $500 million initiative to boost large scale climate action in developing countries</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38847&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Four European countries - Germany, Norway, Sweden, and Switzerland - today announced a new $500 million initiative that will find new ways to create incentives aimed at large scale cuts in greenhouse gas emissions in developing countries to combat climate change. The World Bank Group worked with the countries to develop the initiative.
The Transformative Carbon Asset Facility will help developing countries implement their plans to cut emissions by working with them to create new classes of carbon assets associated with reduced greenhouse gas emission reductions, including those achieved through policy actions.
The facility will measure and pay for emission cuts in large scale programs in areas like renewable energy, transport, energy efficiency, solid waste management, and low carbon cities. For example, it could make payments for emission reductions to countries that remove fossil fuel subsidies or embark on other reforms like simplifying regulations for renewable energy.</description>

 <title> Heads of State and CEOs Declare Support for Carbon Pricing to Transform Global Economy</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38841&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Six heads of state and government and the leaders of the World Bank Group and the International Monetary Fund today called on companies and countries to follow up on their ambitions for Paris by putting a price on carbon to drive investment for a cleaner, greener future.
In a remarkable show of unity on the first day of the climate talks in Paris, heads of state and government from a number of countries called on the world to start pricing carbon pollution as a key to combatting climate change and transforming the global economy. The heads of state and government included the leaders of France, Chile, Ethiopia, Germany, Mexico and Canada.  </description>

 <title> COP21 could trigger a cleantech arms race</title>
 <link>http://www.euractiv.com/sections/energy/cop21-could-trigger-cleantech-arms-race-319947</link>
 <description>Paris should be a turning point in climate policy, as the international community meets to negotiate an ambitious climate policy. Whether the phase out of fossil fuels by 2050 is possible, and whether the nations of the world will be able to usher in a new era of energy, remains a controversial debate.
"We must end CO2 emissions by 2050, otherwise, climate change will be unstoppable," said MEP Rebecca Harms (Greens). This will only be possible if the EU commits to long-term ambitious goals. "The EU cannot hide behind the inadequate G7 targets," Harms added.
The G7 agreed to reduce emissions by between 40 and 70% by 2050. Many experts believe that this is totally inadequate though. Harms is convinced that if the EU wants to achieve the two degrees target, then the member states and Commission must both set higher targets for themselves at Paris.</description>

 <title> What I expect from the UN Climate Change Conference in Paris</title>
 <link>http://elpais.com/elpais/2015/11/27/opinion/1448648428_275412.html</link>
 <description>For the nearly nine years that I have been Secretary-General, I have travelled the world to the front-lines of climate change, and I have spoken repeatedly with world leaders, business people and citizens about the need for an urgent global response. 
Why do I care so much about this issue? 
As His Holiness Pope Francis and other faith leaders have reminded us, we have a moral responsibility to act in solidarity with the poor and most vulnerable who have done least to cause climate change and will suffer first and worst from its effects.
The sooner we act, the greater the benefits for all: increased stability and security; stronger, more sustainable economic growth; enhanced resilience to shocks; cleaner air and water; improved health.</description>

 <title> Is nature an ally of climate policy?</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38832&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Although ecosystems are often presented essentially as suffering the impacts of climate change, they are also increasingly seen as part of the solution, in terms of both adaptation and mitigation.[2] At this stage of the process, the format of INDCs is relatively flexible, and therefore differs considerably from one country to another in terms of precision and implementation. However, despite this haziness and the large degree of freedom given to the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC, or Climate Convention) when specifying their commitments, some have spontaneously given a prominent role to nature-based solutions (NBS) in their INDCs. What exactly is the role given to ecosystems, nature and biodiversity in the INDCs that mention them? What synergies are planned between nature protection and restoration policies and climate policies? In what way is oenature” harnessed, and by the same token, how are climate policies utilised as a means of increasing the protection of natural resources? How are the different countries positioned in relation to this question, and which approaches have been adopted?</description>

 <title> Pragmatism in Climate Policy</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38825&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The diplomatic effort to forge an international agreement to mitigate climate change is undergoing a fundamental shift. The top-down approach that has guided the effort since 1992 is slowly being replaced by a bottom-up model. Rather than attempting to craft an accord based on legally binding restrictions on greenhouse-gas emissions, the new approach relies on voluntary commitments by individual countries to rein in their contributions to climate change.
This is, in one sense, an admission of failure; such an approach is unlikely to limit the rise in global temperatures to less than 2° Celsius, the target set by the United Nations in 2010. But given the slow pace of progress so far, small pragmatic steps by individual countries may be far more productive than attempts to strike a grand bargain that remains forever out of reach.</description>

 <title> Pre-Judging Paris</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38807&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The United Nations Climate Change Conference in Paris later this month is being billed as an opportunity to save the planet. It is no such thing. As I show in a new peer-reviewed paper, even if successful, the agreement reached in Paris would cut temperatures in 2100 by just 0.05° Celsius. The rise in sea level would be reduced by only 1.3 centimeters.
This may seem surprising: we constantly hear how every country has made important commitments to reduce CO2 emissions " the so-called oeIntended Nationally Determined Contributions,” or INDCs. According to the UN’s climate chief, Christiana Figueres, oethe INDCs have the capability of limiting the forecast temperature rise to around 2.7ºC by 2100, by no means enough but a lot lower than the estimated four, five, or more degrees of warming projected by many prior.”
Figueres suggested that the Paris agreement will cut almost 2°C of warming, from 4.5°C to 2.7°C. Though her wording was crafted to avoid actually saying this, it was, predictably, what most people heard. But the reduction consists almost entirely of made-up numbers and wishful thinking.</description>

 <title> Regions push for greater influence in climate negotiations</title>
 <link>http://www.euractiv.com/sections/cities-and-regions-against-climate-change/regions-push-greater-influence-climate</link>
 <description>Regions are beginning to be acknowledged as important actors in the international climate change negotiations. Towns and regions have long been instrumental in implementing international climate commitments, but they want greater recognition for their efforts.
In a resolution adopted unanimously last Monday (16 November), French senators called for "states to recognise the fundamental role of the territories and communities they represent in the success of the Paris agreement".
For the senators, regions are "the most important level where national commitments to mitigating climate change and adapting to its effects are enacted".
Senator Jér\'me Bignon, the author of a resolution on the importance of regions for the success of the COP 21, said, "According to the United Nations Environment Programme, 70% of climate action should be taken at local level."</description>

 <title> Keeping the Climate-Finance Promise</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38783&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>In 2009, the world’s rich countries pledged to mobilize $100 billion a year by 2020 to help poor countries tackle climate change. Since then, that promise has come to be regarded as a key test of the developed world’s resolve to do its part in the fight against global warming.
Reaching the $100 billion target is important. Poor countries must believe that rich countries will honor their pledges. Otherwise, the prospects for an effective international agreement at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Paris in November and December could be at risk.
Fortunately, there are encouraging signs that the commitment will be honored. But larger financial flows are needed, particularly from the private sector. According to the OECD and the Climate Policy Initiative, developed countries collectively mobilized $52.2 billion in 2013 and $61.8 billion in 2014 to help poor countries reduce greenhouse-gas emissions and build resilience against the effects of climate change that can no longer be avoided.</description>

 <description>By promoting public transport and renewable energies, supporting the thermal renovation of buildings and protecting natural habitats, local authorities play a central role in fighting climate change.
A report by the French Senate on climate change and the devolution of power to France’s local authorities found that "local authorities have been exemplary in launching all kinds of initiatives that benefit the climate since at least the 1990s".
Action on a local level will be indispensable if the agreement from the COP 21 is to be implemented successfully.</description>

 <title> Challenges for COP21 and social movements</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38744&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Global warming, probably the most serious existential threat facing the human species, is the byproduct of the industrial exploitation of fossil fuels. Increasing emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases have driven the world into a climate crisis in which our survival is questionable.
The most worrisome part is that we don’t have much time to correct our course. Slight adjustments to the patterns of consumption of dirty energy are not an option. It’s necessary to act quickly and on a large scale in order to avoid the most devastating and irreversible effects of climate change. The present generation, in this decade, inevitably has in their hands the destiny of life on earth.
After an international group of scientists and climate experts warned of the undeniable extent of the problem, the outlook is not good. Twenty years of negotiations within the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) have not been able to reach agreements that would sufficiently limit emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other gases that continue to increase at an alarming rate. And there are no signs that this tendency will reverse itself any time soon.</description>

 <link>http://www.euractiv.fr/sections/climat-environnement/villes-regions-et-changement-climatique-319256#group_extlinks</link>
 <description>World leaders will meet in Paris from 30 November in a bid to secure an agreement to limit global warming to no more than two degrees above pre-industrial levels.
EU heads of state and government agreed on their climate and energy targets last November, a cut of at least 40% of greenhouse gas emissions, and an increase in the share of renewables and energy efficiency to 27% by 2030.
While that deal, the cornerstone of the bloc’s negotiating position in Paris, is a step in the right direction, the European Union has long battled with the problem of poor implementation of its environmental laws.
But regions are increasingly picking up the slack. Through organisations such as the Committee of the Regions and initiatives like the Covenant of Mayors, regional authorities are directly communicating with EU policymakers about how best to fight climate change.</description>

 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38692&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>When it comes to climate change, the world has reached a point of no return. That may sound ominous, but it is precisely where we need to be: unable to continue retreading old ground, we must resolutely set our future path.
An important first step will come at the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP 21) in Paris in November and December, where world leaders will agree on the most important international agreement on climate governance in more than 20 years. Yet important decisions remain to be made in charting a course toward a new and dynamic low-carbon economy, one capable of supporting a fast-growing and increasingly prosperous global population in the long term.</description>

 <description>For the first time, an unprecedented alliance of  Heads of State, city and state leaders, with the support of heads of leading companies, have joined forces to urge countries and companies around the globe to put a price on carbon.
The call to price carbon comes from the Carbon Pricing Panel " a group convened by World Bank Group President Jim Yong Kim and IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde - to spur further, faster action ahead of the Paris climate talks. They are joined in this effort by OECD Secretary General Angel Gurria.
The panel includes German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Chilean President Michelle Bachelet, French President François Hollande, Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn, Philippines President Benigno Aquino III, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto, Governor Jerry Brown of California, and Mayor Eduardo Paes of Rio de Janeiro.</description>

 <description>Once at the forefront of the fight against climate change, Europe is now being left behind by a more determined group of climate activists: the world’s poorest countries.
For months, the 195 member states of the United Nations have been negotiating an international agreement that aims to keep the average global temperature rise below +2°C by the end of the century.
But with only a few weeks to go before the COP21 begins in Paris, the challenge seems greater than ever: the combination of all the intended nationally determined contributions (INDCs) will not be enough to prevent a temperature rise of 3°C or more.</description>

 <title> Can Nations Reach a Strong Agreement on Climate at COP 21?</title>

 <description>Scientists agree: we need to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions drastically in the next decade if we are to avoid the worst ravages of climate change. World governments agree: the way to do that is to forge a global agreement at the climate talks scheduled for this November and December in Paris. Such an agreement would run from 2020 to 2030 and beyond, and encompass all the world's economies, developing and developed, big and small.
With less than two months until that meeting convenes, major issues remain unresolved. Whether they can be settled in the short time available will determine whether Paris is a success - and whether the world can measure up to the major tasks ahead.
A measure of the urgency of the problem is the current refugee crisis in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Millions of refugees fleeing from Islamic State militias, the civil war in Syria and other unrest have overwhelmed European borders, causing unprecedented turmoil. Several prominent commentators have warned clearly that humanitarian disasters like this are only a foretaste of what is likely as climate change takes hold in the coming decades.</description>

 <description>The Bolivian government's slightly late national contribution to the COP 21 contains many radical proposals for safeguarding the future health of the planet, accompanied by the argument that capitalism is responsible for "consumerism, warmongering and [...] the destruction of Mother Earth".
Bolivia, whose constitution already guarantees the respect of Mother Earth, holds "the failed capitalist system" responsible for climate change. "For a lasting solution to the climate crisis we must destroy capitalism," the national contribution states.
The Bolivian text does not stop at the denunciation of capitalism, but offers ten structural solutions to the climate crisis, including a guarantee for the protection of the rights of Mother Earth, the recognition by governments of the right to water and the elimination of technology patents in favour of a human right to science.</description>

 <description>This week’s G-7 meeting at Schloss Elmau in the Bavarian Alps marked a major breakthrough in climate-change policy. The seven largest high-income economies (the United States, Japan, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, and Canada) made the revolutionary decision to decarbonize their economies during this century. For the first time in history, the major rich economies have agreed on the need to end their dependence on fossil fuels. German Chancellor Angela Merkel, US President Barack Obama, and the other G-7 leaders have risen to the occasion and deserve strong global approbation.

 <title> Beijing +20: Broken promises, women’s rights under threat across the globe</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38094&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>As states meet in New York to evaluate commitments made 20 years ago in Beijing, women’s rights are under serious threat across the globe, FIDH said in a note. When governments gathered in Beijing in 1995, they signed up to a road map to eliminate discrimination against women in law and practice. In 2015, it is evident that the political will necessary to translate commitment into reform has fallen woefully short. Not only has progress been slow and halting but in some countries women’s rights have undergone serious setbacks.</description>

 <title> Reconfiguring the role of business in G20 - Analysis</title>
 <link>http://www.eurasiareview.com/03032015-reconfiguring-the-role-of-business-in-g20-analysis/</link>
 <description>The B20 forum has become an important advisor to the G20, bridging the gap between business and foreign policy. Its effectiveness will depend on whether it can emerge as a solutions provider for the G20 and not just an advocacy forum. Indian business can play a vital role in shaping this mandate.</description>

 <title> Call for an Internet Social Forum</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38045&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>More and more, the Internet is the place where we meet up with our friends, get information, organise work, store our pictures and texts, do our banking, see videos, buy tickets and get public services. As we use the Internet extensively, we begin to be "known" through the Internet equally intimately. Soon, it will also hold extensive transactional information from the many oethings” in our daily lives"the entire range of domestic devices as well as public and private infrastructure and services. All this knowledge is power, which can be put to good use or bad. Not only does the Internet increasingly hold too much information about us, with the advancing networked automation and remote access, it provides the power to reach anywhere to control physical spaces and activities.</description>

 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38041&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>A key milestone towards a new, universal agreement on climate change was reached in Geneva following seven days of negotiations by over 190 nations. Nations concluded the Geneva Climate Change Talks by successfully preparing the negotiating text for the 2015 agreement. The agreement is set to be reached in Paris at the end of 2015 and will come into effect in 2020. "I am extremely encouraged by the constructive spirit and the speed at which negotiators have worked during the past week," said Christiana Figueres, Executive Secretary of the UN Framework on Climate Change (UNFCCC).</description>

 <title> From Lima to Paris: Towards a new global climate agreement</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38018&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The year 2015 will be an inflection point in international climate negotiations. Under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), parties have agreed to seal a new global climate deal by the end of the twenty-first session of the Conference of the Parties (COP), due to be held in Paris, France in December.  The agreement will aim to continue strengthening global action on climate change through mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and adapting to the detrimental impacts of climate change consistent with no more than a two degree Celsius global average temperature rise since before the industrial revolution.</description>

 <title> Harnessing Disruption for Sustainability</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=37999&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>After decades of reluctance on the part of world leaders, a rapid, smooth, and purposeful transition toward sustainable development seems unlikely. Indeed, throughout human history, such major changes have more often been forced upon the world by circumstances, with leaders focusing on shorter-term concerns like political turmoil or economic stagnation until serious disruptions to their economies and societies arise. But this need not be the case. Policymakers can develop solutions that leverage immediate challenges to guide the shift toward a more sustainable, inclusive future. This year, which has been dubbed oethe year of sustainable development,” provides an ideal opportunity in this regard.</description>

 <title> Davos 2015: Only 17% of participants at this year's World Economic Forum are women. This is why </title>

 <description>Less than a fifth of the 2,500 participants attending this year's World Economic Forum are women. In fact, just 17 per cent of those assembled in Davos, Switzerland, this week are female. And although the percentage has increased from a low of around 9 per cent in the early 2000s and 15 per cent last year, it is still dismally low. In 2011, the WEF introduced a quota to encourage female participation.  According to its terms, the forum's strategic partners, consisting of around 100 companies, must bring along one woman in every group of five senior executives.</description>

 <title> China, the G20 and global economic governance</title>
 <link>http://www.businessspectator.com.au/article/2014/12/1/china/china-g20-and-global-economic-governance</link>
 <description>The G20 may no longer be under Australia’s custodianship, but the show still rolls on. The leaders’ forum will head to Turkey in 2015, and in his final act as G20 chair for 2014, the Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott confirmed 2016 will see leaders’ heading for China. The announcement is timely, although the G20 designated itself in 2009 as the ‘premier forum for international economic cooperation’, 2016 will be the first year in which China, the world’s largest economy in terms of purchasing power parity, will bear responsibility for coordinating the process.</description>

 <title> Return of geopolitics</title>

 <description>A dominant theme at the recent World Economic Forum summit was that the return of geopolitics, turbulence and volatility were combining to shape today’s fraught strategic environment. As the eruption of crisis and tensions in the Middle East, Ukraine and East Asia have demonstrated, 2014 has been characterised by political and economic turmoil and instability, with uncertainty casting a shadow over the opportunities offered by the world.

 <description>The United Nations Security Council’s membership will be reconstituted in 2015, but it will not look very different from its predecessors. World War II’s victors " the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Russia, and China " will continue to hold the box seats, which come with veto power. Five new non-permanent members " New Zealand, Spain, Angola, Malaysia, and Venezuela " will rotate in for a two-year term, replacing Australia, Luxembourg, Rwanda, South Korea, and Argentina, respectively. The remaining five bleacher seats will be occupied for another year by Chad, Chile, Jordan, Lithuania, and Nigeria.

 <title> The BRICS’ Economic Institutions and International Politics</title>
 <link>http://www.e-ir.info/2014/08/18/the-brics-economic-institutions-and-international-politics/</link>
 <description>At the VI BRICS Summit, held in the Brazilian city of Fortaleza in July 2014, Brazil, Russia, China, India, and South Africa formally announced the creation of a New Development Bank (NDB) and a Contingent Reserve Arrangement (CRA). The official documents portrayed both initiatives as complements to the existing financial and economic institutions. However, in the short term, they will promote more autonomy for the developing countries in relation to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank and, in the long term, they might represent the coming into reality of a new set of principles that will guide economic relations among nations in the 21st century.</description>

 <title> Massive Open Online Classes and International Learning</title>
 <link>http://www.e-ir.info/2014/07/26/massive-open-online-classes-and-international-learning/</link>
 <description>Change, some of it potentially disruptive, has come to American higher education in a very visible way in recent years. Technology promises to expand the reach of compelling teachers while significantly reducing costs. In the last couple of years, massive online classes (MOOCs) have been prominent in debates concerning the future of higher education. Those who want to see universities become much more narrowly utilitarian embrace the classes as quick paths to the certification of marketable skills. Similarly, those who fear the further commercialization of universities see the technology of MOOCs as contributing to growing alienation and depersonalization in higher education.</description>

 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=37152&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The declaration of the Sixth Summit has a strong antineoliberal content, and is in favour of a pattern of growth where the State fulfils an important role. What is important in this declaration is that BRICS brings together the five emerging economies that in absolute terms are the largest.
The fact of establishing a bank for large infrastructure projects is indicative of the perception of these countries on what is lacking in order to achieve better standards of living for the population as a whole, and specially for the poor. </description>

 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=36950&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Russia’s aggression against Ukraine demonstrates that freedom is not a given.  Russia has ripped up the rule book.  And in doing so, it has undermined the international order that has been the foundation of our peace and prosperity.

By standing together, North America and Europe have been the inspiration and the driving force of that order.  To uphold it now, we must continue to stand together.

This means we must reinforce our economic ties. And we must strengthen our security cooperation in NATO.   </description>

 <description>Since the end of the Cold War, the world has benefited from two orders: an American-led security order that ensured a balance of power in every region, and a European-led legal order that sought to write rules for our interdependent world " in everything from free trade and climate emissions to financial transactions and genocide. The backdrop to the Ukraine crisis is the fraying of the American-led security order as non-Western powers rise and the US recalibrates its foreign policy after a decade of war. 

So far the crisis has been contained to Ukraine rather than spilling over across the post-Soviet space or bringing the global economy to its knees. What will the longer-term global consequences of the Ukraine crisis be?

 <title> President Obama's Remarks in Brussels to European Youth

</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=36634&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Remarks by president Obama in address to european youth: Leaders and dignitaries of the European Union; representatives of our NATO Alliance; distinguished guests: We meet here at a moment of testing for Europe and the United States, and for the international order that we have worked for generations to build.nThroughout human history, societies have grappled with fundamental questions of how to organize themselves, the proper relationship between the individual and the state, the best means to resolve inevitable conflicts between states. And it was here in Europe, through centuries of struggle -- through war and Enlightenment, repression and revolution -- that a particular set of ideals began to emerge: The belief that through conscience and free will, each of us has the right to live as we choose.</description>

 <title> Air pollution now linked to 1 in 8 deaths worldwide, UN health agency reports</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=36627&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Air pollution " both indoor and outdoor " killed some 7 million people across the globe in 2012, making it the world’s largest single environmental health risk, according to new figures released today by the UN World Health Organization (WHO). oeThe risks from air pollution are now far greater than previously thought or understood, particularly for heart disease and strokes,” said Maria Neira, Director of WHO’s Department for Public Health, Environmental and Social Determinants of Health. oeFew risks have a greater impact on global health today than air pollution; the evidence signals the need for concerted action to clean up the air we all breathe,” Dr. Neira added.</description>

 <description>Within the next fifteen or twenty years we could live in a world where everyone has enough food, access to basic health services, schooling and jobs.  That’s a different world from the one we inhabit today, but I’m optimistic, because a new emerging vision is galvanizing support from governments, business and civil society. My optimism comes from following the Open Working Group on Sustainable Development Goals (OWG).</description>

 <title> Work</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=276&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>For the opposition between Davos and Porto Alegre to really be in operation, one should be able to say that the dividing line between these two worlds is drawn, in one way or another, in a redefinition of human work, and notably of the rights that the access to work, permanent or precarious, grants to a social class whose name is yet to be defined since the exhaustion of the term ‘proletariat’. The apprehension of work, of the estimation of its social value as well as the emphasis on an ontological quality, distinguishes the fashionable visitors at Davos from the demonstrative gathering at Porto Alegre to the point of reconfiguring the opposition inherited from the first three industrial revolutions.</description>
