This is Change? - (USA)
Change, that magical word that somehow became so spun that it made up for a total lack of National Party Policy, so how is that change feeling folks, because it’s not so much a cabinet as a gallery of rogues that’s been released with the same tired old privatization faces that we’ve come to know and love so affectionately. Let’s see, Bill English, Gerry Brownlee, Simon Power, Tony Ryall, Nick Smith, David Carter, Murray McCully and Wayne Mapp – not really change is it? Sounds very much like bus

NZ poorly served by Kyoto negotiators - (USA)
The Emissions Trading Scheme is seriously flawed and must be deferred engineer John de Beuger says. There isn’t much low-hanging fruit left to pick when it comes to reducing our carbon footprint. We already have a high percentage of hydro renewables, and because our animals are free-range and grass fed (not corn fed in feed lots), our agriculture is close to world-best practice. We can certainly improve in transport, but this will cost. With no other country even thinking about carbon footpr

RFS Rules: Bad for Some Biodiesel, Good for Others - (USA)
The new, proposed Environmental Protection Agency rules for the Renewable Fuels Standard has the biofuels community split over if they will be good for the green fuels. The point of contention has to do with the impact Indirect Land Use Change (ILUC) will have on biofuel production. Under the new rules, biodiesel made from soybeans has been deemed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by only 22 percent… while it must reduce those emissions by 50 percent if it wants to count toward the RFS 1-bill

Climate change: sinking in - (USA)
The sheer stupidity of the National-led government's plans to delay the ETS to allow for Rodney Hide's denialist grandstanding seem to be sinking in. The Herald, the Listener, the Independent (offline), Rod Oram, and Vernon Small in the Dominion Post all make the point that it has increased business uncertainty and stripped us of our mana and "clean and green" credentials. The immediate focus is on the UK's decision to increase a departure tax (a crude proxy for the carbon tax or emissions tra

The people in this region, in and around the Atacama desert, are accustomed to fragile ecosystems and an extremely dry climate. However, today, even in the fertile central and southern regions of Chile, there are noticeable tensions over water rights and water availability. Present
