  • The European crisis through the lens of financialisation
    May 2012
    Antonio Tricarico

    The financial sector through the Euro crisis hopes to further extract wealth from public sectors, driven by its goal to commodify the whole economy and nature itself.

  • Where The Air Is Rarefied
    April 2012
    Darryl D'Monte

    The most comprehensive analysis of climate change, which tackles India’s (mostly flawed) policies.

  • Is the Green Economy a new Washington Consensus?
    February 2012
    Working Group on Green Economy, WSF

    The current environmental and climate crisis is not simply a market failure because nature is not simply a form of capital. Putting a price on nature under the label of the "Green Economy" is an attempt to expand the reach of finance capital and privatise our planet.

  • Radiation Crisis continues in Fukushima
    February 2012
    Praful Bidwai

    The multi-reactor meltdown accident in Japan beginning last March 2011 has not ended. Plants continue to leak radiation and shockingly no sytematic monitoring of radiation levels is taking place.

  • Resistance and Hope at a time of Climate Emergency
    January 2012
    Nick Buxton

  • Durban's Climate Zombie tripped
    January 2012
    Patrick Bond

    Looking back now that the dust has settled, South Africa’s COP17 presidency appears disastrous. This was confirmed not only by Durban’s delayed, diplomatically-decrepit denouement, but by plummeting carbon markets in the days immediately following the conference’s ignoble end.

  • Durban’s greenwash outcome
    January 2012
    Praful Bidwai

    The outcome of Durban is a disaster for global climate protection and the survival of millions. 

     
  • Conference of Polluters
    December 2011
    TNI

    TNI was present at the Durban UN Climate Conference challenging the role of corporations in undermining and seeking to profit from attempts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

  • Durban and the climate change deniers
    November 2011
    Praful Bidwai

    The EU could play a valuable role in preventing another flawed climate deal if it neutralises the US and brings other ditherers on board while starting talks on future obligations for the emerging economies.
