Indonesia: Customary laws protect forest better than govt does: Study

Jakarta Post: Research shows customary laws that were implemented by a number of local communities were far more effective than government policies to preserve forest in efforts to deal with climate change. For local communities, obliging traditional laws means respecting their ancestors. Preliminary research says communities of Baduy in Banten province, Kampung Kuta people in Ciamis, West Java province and Dayak people in Kalimantan are among local communities that issue unwritten laws to ...

Climate change problems hit Native Americans close to home

Billings Gazette: The history of American Indians is varied and each tribe has its own customs, but one belief that binds us all is our deep respect for the Earth and the gifts it has given us. This belief has inspired the Salish and Kootenai people's effort to protect our air, water and other natural resources for future generations. We now recognize that one environmental threat poses a challenge like no other: global climate change. It was with these thoughts in mind that I journeyed to Copenhagen, ...

Nations large and small join climate change campaign

Sydney Morning Herald: THEY range from the vulnerable, like low-lying Bangladesh, to the vast, such as the US; from the familiar - England, New Zealand - to the more obscure, such as the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. Many are old hands, like Australia; some are first-timers, including Kosovo and Mongolia. What unites such a disparate group is concern about climate change. They have all signed on to participate in Earth Hour next Saturday. Now in its fourth year, Earth Hour has ...

IPCC has underestimated climate-change impacts, say scientists

Asian News International: A team of scientists has determined that the United Nation's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) 2007 4th assessment report underestimates the potential dangerous impacts that man-made climate change will have on society. According to Charles H. Greene, Cornell professor of Earth and atmospheric science, "Even if all man-made greenhouse gas emissions were stopped tomorrow and carbon-dioxide levels stabilized at today's concentration, by the end of this century, the global ...

United States: Lisa Murkowski: Climate change double agent

Mother Jones: Lisa Murkowski is the rare Republican senator who not only acknowledges that global warming exists but says she wants to do something about it. She likes to point out that her home state of Alaska is "ground zero for climate change"; about two years ago, she championed a bipartisan bill to rein in carbon emissions. In a party where Oklahoma Sen. Jim Inhofe--who calls global warming the "greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people"--is the preeminent Republican voice on climate, ...

A Year On, Little Change in Political Climate

Inter Press Service: This time last year, United States federal legislation on climate change was starting to take shape, seemingly more pressing matters were taking up the bulk of U.S. policymakers' time, and a major climate conference was looming at the end of the year. Twelve months later, the scene is eerily similar. The U.S. House of Representatives swiftly passed its bill last June, but the Senate now has four different paths it could take to address climate change – and has yet to move decisively ...

Mont. drilling leases on hold over climate change

Associated Press: A federal judge has approved a settlement requiring the government to suspend oil and gas leases on almost 38,000 acres in Montana because potential climate change impacts were not studied prior to leasing. Erik Schlenker-Goodrich, an attorney involved in the case, says it marks the first time the Bureau of Land Management has agreed to go back and consider if a lease sale could exacerbate climate change. Thursday's order approving the settlement was issued by U.S. District ...

Climate change cited as Mont. leases suspended

Associated Press: A federal judge has approved a first-of-its-kind settlement requiring the government to suspend 38,000 acres of oil and gas leases in Montana so it can gauge how oil field activities contribute to climate change. At issue are the greenhouse gases emitted by drilling machinery and industry practices such as venting natural gas directly into the atmosphere. Environmentalists -- who sued when the Montana leases were sold in 2008 -- argued the industry has allowed too much waste ...

Is global warming the new apocalypse?

Times (UK): I spent my childhood bedtimes waiting for war. As the fading evening light turned the roses on my pink curtains into sinister faces, I would wonder why my father had not dug us an underground bunker in the garden. Because one day, I reasoned, someone was going to push the red button, and a mushroom cloud would billow over the horizon and suffocate us in its deadly, iconic grip; and thanks to my stupidly optimistic parents we'd be the only unbunkered family on the street. Children of ...

Corporate support swells for Earth Hour

Gland, Switzerland: Thousands of offices of some of the world’s leading corporations will be supporting this year’s Earth Hour “lights out” initiative for effective climate change action.

Many of the companies will also be encouraging staff to individually join the expected hundreds of millions of others from every continent who will turn lights off for one hour from 8.30 pm on Saturday, March 27.

The ever-growing list of corporate support around the world for Earth Hour 2010 includes Canon, Coca-Cola, HSBC, Nokia Siemens Networks, Price Waterhouse Coopers, Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics and Wells Fargo. The companies are emphasising that while corporate efforts for Earth Hour are symbolic gestures, they also highlight the critical need for more action around climate protection.

One of the world’s leading financial institutions, HSBC, is taking the opportunity with its commitment of world-wide support to Earth Hour 2010 to reinforce the need for greater consideration of energy use habits.

“HSBC will switch off lights in its offices around the world to highlight to our employees, customers and the public the continued importance of thinking about the way we consume resources,” said Head of Group Corporate Sustainability for HSBC, Mr Simon Martin.

With around 8,500 office locations across 86 countries, HSBC’s worldwide power-down aims to inspire the behavioural change and corporate accountability they feel is required to address the ongoing indiscriminate threat of global warming.

“Climate change remains a clear challenge to human society, and the symbolic act of powering down our offices for an hour is a way of heightening awareness of the need for everybody to act responsibly and cohesively to manage the challenge,” Mr Martin said.

Similarly, communications giant Nokia Siemens Networks will urge its offices worldwide to ‘flick the switch’ on March 27, while at the same time encouraging its 64,000 strong staff and worldwide customer base to be part of a global resolution to climate change.

Coca-Cola will be turning out lights in many offices and bottling facilities around the world while also helping to raise awareness by activating iconic marketing assets.

Wells Fargo, which is committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by 20 percent through energy efficiency efforts in its own operations, is encouraging its customers to participate in Earth Hour through messages on its ATMs expected to reach more than eight million people. The company is also turning off its own non-essential lights where practical. Wells Fargo Green Teams (grassroots groups of Wells Fargo team members that help drive environmental stewardship) are encouraging co-workers to participate in the event.

Mary Wenzel, director of Environmental Affairs at Wells Fargo said, “While the 60 minutes of energy saved during the event is important, the true significance of this event is that it demonstrates that by both working together and also taking personal responsibility for turning off lights, unplugging electrical items and making our homes more energy efficient each of us can make a positive difference.

“Please join us.”

Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics' (WWL) will lead up to Earth Hour with an “energy efficiency week” in its main office in Oslo, with staff invited to “find wasted energy in the building”, while WWL offices globally are being encouraged to plan their own activities for Earth Hour.

PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), the world’s largest professional services firm, have conducted a study of the international business community, with some enlightening revelations into attitudes towards the global management of the climate dilemma. Titled Appetite for Change, the world’s most comprehensive survey of its kind reveals that 84% of corporate executives believe global warming will change the way they do business over the next two to three years.

With an extensive program of measured carbon emission targets to meet the impending changes to the international business landscape, PwC will show its commitment to climate action by engaging its offices in more than 150 countries to switch off their lights for Earth Hour 2010, while also encouraging its 163,000 staff to participate in the world’s greatest show of action on global warming.

“The implementation of sustainable business practices is not just an environmental imperative, it’s a commercial one, too,” said Earth Hour Executive Director Andy Ridley.

“Earth Hour brings together cities, communities, businesses and individuals on the journey to positive action on climate change.”

WWF and IKEA join hands to support Earth Hour

Earth Hour has gained the support of the world’s largest home-furnishing companies, IKEA, to spread the message that a brighter future for all people on our planet requires action from all sectors. We can accomplish so much more by working together.

IKEA and WWF have co-operated together since 2002 towards a decreased ecological footprint by promoting responsible and sustainable use of resources. Today, the partnership includes projects on forestry, climate and sustainable cotton production on three continents.

"We at IKEA recognise that our business will be successful only if there is a sustainable management of the resources we rely on to make our products," says Thomas Bergmark, Sustainability Manager at IKEA.

Last year, almost half of IKEA’s retail countries participated in Earth Hour including activities in the stores as well as to co-workers with the aim of highlighting the importance of fighting climate change. This year the aim is even higher.

"Earth Hour is an opportunity to remind everyone that we - and everyone - must take steps in order to stop climate change. With 123,000 co-workers and 525 million visitors to our store we can make a great impact by raising awareness of the possibilities we all have to make a change," says Thomas Bergmark.

On March 27, IKEA stores around the world will have a variety of activities ranging from turning off the non-essential lighting inside and outside the store, offering "solar-powered-lit" dinners, competitions among customers and co-workers to highlight climate change and Earth Hour.

““Never has there been a more important time or better opportunity for the people of the world to stand up and take the matter of climate change into their own hands. Earth Hour brings together communities, businesses and individuals to show world leaders and, more importantly, show each other, that a resolution to global warming is possible if we work on it together. IKEA is helping to lead the way for positive action,” says Co-Founder and Executive Director of Earth Hour, Andy Ridley.

He continues: "Earth Hour demonstrates the determination of the world’s citizens for a better healthier world. It brings together cities, communities, businesses and individuals on the journey to positive action on climate change."

Earth Hour began in Australia in 2007 and has now spread throughout the world. Last year about 1 billion people participated in Earth Hour. Landmarks like London's Big Ben, The Sydney Opera House and the Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur switched off their lights to show support.

More than 100 countries will be participating in Earth Hour, surpassing last years total with nearly two weeks to spare. On March 27 from 8.30-9.30 pm - the world will go dark.
