Within this it considers the commonalities and differences between religions and ecocentrism. There are articles by, or interviews with, spokespersons for Catholicism, Anglicanism, Judaism, Buddhism and Paganism. There are also two longer articles, one reviewing the evidence concerning the impact of Christianity on attitudes to nature and one discussing animism as an ecological practice.

Message-ID: stop The following international appeal has been published on our YouMove platform by Comit? Europ?en contre la Criminalisation du Sauvetage en Mer and it has been published in the Italian newspaper Il Manifesto. We thought you it might interest you. Hi Vladimir, Carola Rakete, the heroic captain of Sea Watch 3 who rescued 40 refugees was arrested in Italy last week and now faces huge fines and years in prison. She's joined by Pia Klemp another brave sea captain whose ship, the Iuventa, was seized by authorities in 2017 after saving thousands from drowning. The international call for their release and show of solidarity is growing, join now! Add your name "...we call fellow citizens of Europe to rise against the policies of hostility against migrants and refugees, which is shamelessly proclaimed in Italy and more covertly practiced in other countries. We call them to express active solidarity with Carola and Pia. Whereas Matteo Salvini and his likes push us towards disgrace, these courageous women and their crews truly saved the honor of our continent. We must impose their liberation and acquittal, and join their struggle. This is a difficult struggle, but its stakes are undisputable: against tyranny, against xenophobic hysteria and racism, for universal rights and hospitality, for human life, siding with its champions. We will not remain silent, watching from outside. " Add your name Thousands of people like you are mobilizing online to demand that the charges against these women fall. Humanity cannot be arrested or criminalized. These two brave women need us, our voices and our support. Will you sign to give them the strength to face this challenge? Inspired by their courage, Olga (Bologna), Virginia (Madrid), Alex (Marseille) and the whole team of We Move Europe More information: [1] https://metro.co.uk/2019/06/12/boat-captain-faces-20-years-jail-rescuing-migrants-mediterranean-9921099/ [2] https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/jun/29/sea-watch-captain-carola-rackete-arrested-italian-blockade WeMove.EU is a citizens? movement, campaigning for a better Europe; for a European Union committed to social and economic justice, environmental sustainability and citizen-led democracy.

[1] The support for the heroic captain of Sea Watch 3 all over the world has been immense - and you were part of it! The initiators of the International Call have a message for you and everyone who signed the appeal: "The Italian Judiciary has ordered to release Captain Rackete from arrest. This is a great victory and a humiliation for Minister Matteo Salvini. However, she remains under threat of expulsion and unable to continue her mission with her ship and crew. Meanwhile, the bombing of refugee camps in Libya clearly shows that there is immediate danger there for all migrants.

To build it, two European banks have to sign off loan contracts. Next week we'll meet them in Luxembourg -- add your name to this call before we deliver it. Sign now Hi, Hydropower can be a great renewable energy solution under the right circumstances. In Georgia however, they are about to use European money to bankroll a completely disastrous project. But the final contracts haven?t been signed yet so there?s still time to stop it in its tracks. The Nenskra hydro plant is to be built in a precious valley, destroying the pristine environment, threatening the livelihoods of local villagers, and in the end, the energy it will create will be too expensive for locals! [1] Two European banks approved loans for one-third of the one billion dollars needed, but before they sign the contracts they'll meet in Luxemburg next week. [2] They will hold a big public meeting where together with partners we will show up and raise our concerns. [3] Add your voice now so we can deliver calls from across Europe into the meeting next week. Sign now to stop the Nenskra Hydropower plant. SIGN NOW TO SAVE THE RIVER VALLEY This precious valley is located in Svaneti, the Northwestern part of Georgia. The locals have been protesting the plan -- the forests and rivers in the area will be destroyed if the dam is built -- so it?s easy to understand the anger and sense of hopelessness they feel. The dam will force the Nakra river down to 10% of its average annual flow and the Nenskra to 5%. [4] And the villagers have unexpected allies: The World Bank and the International Monetary Fund concluded independently the project doesn?t even make economic sense! [5] Still, the government of Georgia is pushing hard to get the dam built, and aren?t considering potentially better alternatives. But the Achilles heel of the plan: they need the money from Europe?s banks, and we can stop them from getting it. The European Investment Bank, one of the banks considering the loan, is accountable to member states of the EU, and by extension, to their citizens. So together let?s create a huge call from across Europe that?s too big to ignore and it will be delivered straight to the banks next week at their meeting in Luxembourg. Add your voice and sign the petition: SIGN NOW TO SAVE THE RIVER VALLEY Together we have fought to preserve pristine habitats in Eastern Europe before: the primaeval forests in Poland and Romania, the river valley of Kresna in Bulgaria and now Nenskra in Georgia. [6] Eastern Europe still has huge natural reserves and too often they are destroyed to make a profit and too often it?s our money used to harm them. Because we pay, we have a say. Together we can use it to protect European nature. With determination, Olga (Bologna), J?rg (L?beck), Alex (Marseille), and the WeMove Europe team PS: Endangered species like the Eurasian lynx and Persian leopard live in North-Western Georgia. [8] Badly planned and implemented hydropower plants threaten their refuge. Let?s save it - sign our petition.

Together, we?ve worked to fight climate change by advancing the transition to a clean energy economy. We?ve fought to halt the Keystone XL pipeline and registered more than a million voters nationwide. I couldn?t be more proud of this team, and I?m so glad to be able to share my next steps with you. Today, I?m announcing my candidacy for President of the United States ? and our campaign will be one about the values that you and I share. I hope you?ll join me over the next few weeks as I work to bring our values and our voices to the debate stage. What?s preventing us from addressing the challenges facing our country isn't our differences, but our broken politics. Until we reform the system and get rid of corporate money, we won?t be able to address climate change, make our economy more just and fair, or make health care affordable and accessible. NextGen isn't going anywhere! I?m committed to continue my support of this work that I believe in so much, but I'll be stepping down from the organization as this great team continues to register, motivate, and turn out young people to vote across the country.

The 12th extraordinary Summit of Heads of State and Government has launched operational phase of the AfCFTA (African Continental Free Trade Area). The agreement aims to increase trade between African states and to accelerate the progress of regional and continental integration by creating the largest free area trade in the world, both in terms of the number of countries involved and by extension. According to the UN conference trade and development the transition phase to the Continental Free Trade Area alone could generate welfare gains of $16.1 billion and boost intra-African trade by 33 per cent. According to the African Union intra-African trade is likely to increase by 60% by 2022 under the AfCFTA.

Across 101 countries, covering 76% of the global population, 1.3 billion people -23.1 percent- are ?multidimensionally poor?. The global MPI scrutinizes a person?s depri- vations across 10 indicators in health, education and standard of living. Two-thirds of multidimensionally poor people -886 million people- live in middle-income countries. A further 440 million live in low-income countries. Read more Eurostat, the statistical office of the European Union, has released the EU population estimate: On 1 January 2019, the population of the European Union (EU) was estimated at almost 513.5 million, compared with 512.4 million on 1 January 2018. During 2018, more deaths than births were recorded in the EU (5.3 million deaths and 5.0 million births), meaning that the natural change of the EU population was negative for a second consecutive year. The population change (positive, with 1.1 million more inhabitants) was therefore due to net migration. At EU level, the crude birth rate was 9.7 per 1 000 residents. Across Member States, the highest crude birth rates in 2018 were recorded in Ireland (12.5 per 1 000 residents), Sweden (11.4?), France (11.3?) and the United Kingdom (11.0?), while the lowest were registered in Italy (7.3?), Spain (7.9?), Greece (8.1?), Portugal (8.5?), Finland (8.6?), Bulgaria (8.9?) and Croatia (9.0?). With 83.0 million residents (or 16.2% of the total EU population at 1 January 2019), Germany is the most populated EU Member State, ahead of France (67.0 million, or 13.1%), the United Kingdom (66.6 million, or 13.0%), Italy (60.4 million, or 11.8%), Spain (46.9 million, or 9.1%) and Poland (38.0 million, or 7.4%).

A study released last week found that as of this year, climate cases have appeared in the courts of 28 countries. While climate litigation is not new, the steady drumbeat of cases in the United States and abroad points to a trend: Individuals and groups increasingly see the courts as a way to address climate change. The report by the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment surveyed worldwide climate litigation from the early 1990s to 2019. It culled data mainly from the Climate Change Laws of the World database, run by the Grantham Institute and Columbia Law School's Sabin Center for Climate Change Law. Of the 1,328 cases surveyed, a famously litigious United States holds a hefty lead at 1,023. Australia follows with 94 cases. Climate change cases in low- and middle-income countries are also on the rise, according to the report. Eleven of the countries listed in the report are on the World Bank's low- and middle-income list. According to the report, more than 300 climate cases have been brought to courts outside the United States since 1994. The cases tend to feed off each other, said Carroll Muffett, president of the Center for International Environmental Law. "Law is by nature an iterative process, and that's particularly true where ... you see the law moving into areas that are, in some respects, new," he said. "In those circumstances, it's not at all uncommon for both plaintiffs and judges alike to look across borders for examples of relevant precedence." Many of the international lawsuits will look familiar to those following U.S. climate litigation. Similarly to the ongoing kids' climate case in U.S. courts, youth plaintiffs in Colombia sued the government in 2018 over the fundamental rights to a safe environment. Lower courts ruled against the kid plaintiffs, but Colombia's Supreme Court reversed the decision. The Colombian government was compelled to take measures to address climate change as a result of the loss, but the case was thrown back to court when the government failed to take action. Another group of plaintiffs in Canada took a class-action suit on behalf of Quebec citizens younger than 35 to the Quebec Supreme Court. Like other youth climate cases, the suit accuses the government of violating kids' rights to a safe climate by intentionally setting ineffective greenhouse gas emission targets. Shareholders in Australia, on the other hand, targeted the Commonwealth Bank of Australia for failing to disclose climate change business risks in annual reports. A decision is pending. And in the Netherlands, an environmental group is suing fossil fuel producer Royal Dutch Shell PLC for its contributions to the effects of climate change. Muffett ? whose group has filed amicus briefs and testified in support of a number of international cases ? said the most important trend surrounding this litigation is its rapid spread. "One of the things that really needs to be highlighted here is the diversity of those suits, and this is true whether we look internationally or domestically," he said. Dena Adler, a fellow at the Sabin Center, told E&E News in an email that these cases "can face an uphill battle in the courtroom," but "early victories in the Netherlands and Colombia illustrate that legal barriers can be overcome in at least some jurisdictions." Here are some of the other ongoing international cases to watch: Australia Eight islanders from the Torres Strait, just off the coast of Queensland, Australia, are suing the Australian government for failing to address climate change. In their filing with the U.N. Human Rights Committee, petitioners say their homes are at risk due to high tides that threaten to completely inundate the islands. They argue that Australia, by not doing enough to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and contributing to climate change, violated their human rights under the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. In a separate case in the Federal Court of Australia, pension fund member Mark McVeigh went after the Retail Employees Superannuation Trust for failing to provide adequate information about climate change business risks. McVeigh requested information about how the company planned to respond to climate change risks that "have posed, and will increasingly continue to pose, material or major risks to the financial position of many of REST's investments." He sued when he found its response inadequate. France The French government has been the target of two cases so far in 2019. In one, the mayor of a coastal town in northern France filed suit against the government at the Conseil d'?tat for not doing enough to curb global warming. According to a press release provided by the plaintiffs, "the municipality of Grande-Synthe is particularly vulnerable to climate change." The government needs "to take useful legislative and regulatory measures to make climate priority mandatory and to prohibit any measure likely to increase greenhouse gas emissions." Another case, filed in the Administrative Court in Paris by environmental groups, requests damages from the French government for failing to tackle climate change. The suit asks that the court compel the government to "put an end to all the State's failures to meet its obligations ? general and specific ? regarding the fight against climate change or the mitigation of its effects." India At 9 years old, Ridhima Pandey filed a lawsuit in the National Green Tribunal of India against the Indian government over its alleged lack of climate action. The 2017 suit claimed that her government violated duties stipulated in existing environmental law and India's Public Trust Doctrine from the Paris Agreement. "As a young person, the Applicant is part of a class that amongst all Indians is most vulnerable to changes in climate in India yet are not part of the decision making process," the complaint said. "The government has failed to take any effective science-based measure, and there is a huge gap in implementation of the environmental legislations." Ireland An environmental advocacy group brought a 2018 case against the Irish government for inadequately dealing with climate change. The case alleges that the government's National Mitigation Plan to curb emissions isn't enough to prevent severe consequences, thus violating human rights under the European Convention on Human Rights and existing environmental regulations. While Ireland's High Court did hear arguments in Friends of the Irish Environment v. Ireland, the Irish government opted to keep case documents from going public. Pakistan Women in Pakistan claim their government infringed on their rights not just with regard to a safe climate, but also on the basis of sex discrimination. In Maria Khan et al. v. Federation of Pakistan et al., a group of female petitioners say that the consequences of global warming ? exacerbated by the Pakistan's rapid greenhouse gas emissions ? will have disproportionate effects on women because of social constraints that afford them less opportunities to cope than men. "In addition, they tend to possess fewer assets than men and depend more on natural resources for their livelihoods. In time of a disaster, women are more likely to suffer due to their limited access to financial, natural, institutional or social resources and often due to social norms and ethos," the complaint said. Philippines Individuals and environmental advocacy organizations, including Greenpeace Southeast Asia, filed a petition in the Philippines Commission on Human Rights against a slew of "carbon majors," including top oil and gas producers around the world. Petitioners say the activities of those producers "contribute a significant portion of the estimated emissions of greenhouse gases" that cause climate change damages felt keenly by Filipinos. The suit alleges "violations or threats of violations of Filipinos' rights (a) to life; (b) to the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health;(c) to food; (d) to water; (e) to sanitation; (f) to adequate housing; and (g) to self-determination resulting from the adverse impacts of climate change." The commission took up the case and began holding public hearings last year. Uganda A youth case brought in 2012 marked the first climate-related litigation effort in Uganda. But the lawsuit has faced significant delays. Four Ugandan minors and environmental organization Greenwatch argued that the government has a responsibility under the Ugandan Constitution to act "as a public trustee to ensure that the atmosphere is free from pollution for the present and future generations." The case had a preliminary hearing, but no action has been taken since. The case remains pending in the High Court at Kampala. Cases on appeal Several high-profile international case are awaiting appeals decisions. They include: Lliuya v. RWE: A Peruvian farmer sued Germany's largest electricity producer for knowingly producing greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to melting glaciers near his home. Union of Swiss Senior Women for Climate Protection v. Swiss Federal Council and others: A group of senior women say they're disproportionately affected by the Swiss government's failure to do enough to curb emissions. Urgenda Foundation v. State of the Netherlands: This landmark climate case ? in which an environmental group sued the government for failing to do more about climate change ? prevailed in two lower courts. The Dutch government has appealed. Armando Ferr?o Carvalho and others v. the European Parliament and the Council: Also known as the "People's Climate Case," this case was brought by families from around the world who argue that the European Union's current emissions reduction plan isn't stringent enough to avoid severe climate consequences, thus violating their fundamental rights to life, health and property. -- CAN-talk Listserv | CAN-talk at listi.jpberlin.de | https://listi.jpberlin.de/mailman/listinfo/can-talk | Emails received through CAN-talk are confidential and should not be circulated beyond CAN members unless otherwise stated. -- Subscribe to CAN's ECO Newsletter @ http://climatenetwork.org/eco-newsletters -- -- Best regards, Tatiana Shauro I support #FridaysForFuture.

Nitin Sethi published two stories, the SPM is quoted in several chunks throughout. Business Standard: https://wap.business-standard.com/article-amp/current-affairs/climate-change-could-cause-29-spike-in-cereal-prices-leaked-un-report-119071500637_1.html?__twitter_impression=true The Wire: https://thewire.in/environment/climate-change-cereal-prices-un-report It then also got picked up in the Carbon Brief daily briefing: https://www.carbonbrief.org/daily-brief/climate-activists-disrupt-british-cities-with-summer-uprising The IPCC is holding its embargo as standard, and we?re supporting that at GSCC by not commenting if asked. Their statement is below and possibly up online already. Relatively small pickup and social media chat so far. In case you?re curious, here?s the angle Nitin went for with this: The impact on agriculture in higher latitudes is recorded to be different than in lower ones, such as one covering India. ?Increasing temperature are affecting agricultural productivity in higher latitudes, raising yields of some crops such as maize, cotton, wheat, sugar beets, while in lower-latitude regions yields of crops such as maize, wheat and barley are declining. Modelling results, that the scientific panel reviewed, show that cereal prices could rise by up to 29 per cent in 2050 due to climate change, which would impact consumers globally through higher food prices, though the impact would vary by regions. The stability of food supply is expected to decrease as the magnitude and frequency of extreme events caused by climate change increases, disrupting food chains globally.

Begin forwarded message: From: IPCC Media Subject: IPCC Statement: Media reports on the draft IPCC Special Report on Climate Change and Land Date: 16 July 2019 at 14:06:53 CEST Reply-To: IPCC Media 2019/19/ST IPCC STATEMENT 16 July 2019 Media reports on the draft IPCC Special Report on Climate Change and Land GENEVA, July 16 ? The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) notes that news articles have appeared citing a draft of the IPCC Special Report on Climate Change and Land (SRCCL). The IPCC will consider the report from 2 to 6 August 2019 in Geneva, where it will examine the Summary for Policymakers of the report line by line. This process typically leads to further changes in the Summary for Policymakers. Draft reports are provided as working documents for the approval session. They are not intended for public distribution, and must not be quoted or cited, because the text can change between the drafts and the final version once the IPCC has carefully considered every line. As with any work in progress, it is important to respect the authors and give them the time and space to finish writing before making the work public. Drafts of the report are collective works in progress that do not necessarily represent the IPCC?s final assessment of the state of knowledge. According to the IPCC procedures, reports are made available to the public after their Summary for Policymakers has been approved and the underlying report accepted. The IPCC does not comment on draft reports while work is ongoing. The agreed outline of the report, whose full name is Climate Change and Land, an IPCC special report on climate change, desertification, land degradation, sustainable land management, food security, and greenhouse gas fluxes in terrestrial ecosystems, can be found at: www.ipcc.ch/site/assets/uploads/2018/04/Decision_Outline_SR_LandUse.pdf Subject to approval, a press conference to present the IPCC Special Report on Climate Change and Land will be held on 8t August in Geneva. The press conference will be streamed live. Details on how to access it were sent in this media advisory. The SRCCL Summary for Policymakers, press release and any other press materials will be made available to registered media under embargo shortly after completion of the approval process, expected on 6 August. The latest draft of the report was circulated to governments for comment on the Summary for Policymakers between 29 April and 24 June 2019. Journalists or others seeking context or background information can contact Sigourney Luz, Communications Manager, IPCC Working Group III Technical Support Unit, or Jonathan Lynn, Head of Communications, IPCC.

Their interlinkages as well as synergies, trade-offs and integrated response options will be presented. The SRCCL is being prepared under the joint scientific leadership of Working Groups I, II, III and the Task Force on National Greenhouse Gas Inventories, and supported by the WG III Technical Support Unit. About the IPCC The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the UN body for assessing the science related to climate change. It was established by the United Nations Environment Programme (UN Environment) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) in 1988 to provide policymakers with regular scientific assessments concerning climate change, its implications and potential future risks, as well as to put forward adaptation and mitigation strategies. It has 195 member states. IPCC assessments provide governments, at all levels, with scientific information that they can use to develop climate policies. IPCC assessments are a key input into the international negotiations to tackle climate change. IPCC reports are drafted and reviewed in several stages, thus guaranteeing objectivity and transparency. The IPCC assesses the thousands of scientific papers published each year to tell policymakers what we know and don?t know about the risks related to climate change. The IPCC identifies where there is agreement in the scientific community, where there are differences of opinion, and where further research is needed. It does not conduct its own research. To produce its reports, the IPCC mobilizes hundreds of scientists. These scientists and officials are drawn from diverse backgrounds. The IPCC has three working groups: Working Group I, dealing with the physical science basis of climate change; Working Group II, dealing with impacts, adaptation and vulnerability; and Working Group III, dealing with the mitigation of climate change. It also has a Task Force on National Greenhouse Gas Inventories that develops methodologies for measuring emissions and removals. All of these are supported by Technical Support Units guiding the production of IPCC assessment reports and other products. IPCC Assessment Reports consist of contributions from each of the three working groups and a Synthesis Report. Special Reports undertake an assessment of cross-disciplinary issues that span more than one working group and are shorter and more focused than the main assessments. About the Sixth Assessment Cycle At its 41st Session in February 2015, the IPCC decided to produce a Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). At its 42nd Session in October 2015 it elected a new Bureau that would oversee the work on this report and Special Reports to be produced in the assessment cycle. At its 43rd Session in April 2016, it decided to produce three Special Reports, a Methodology Report and AR6. In October 2018 the IPCC finalized the Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5?C. In May 2019 it released the Methodology Report 2019 Refinement to the 2006 IPCC Guidelines on National Greenhouse Gas Inentories. Besides Climate Change and Land, the IPCC will release the Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate (SROCC) in September 2019, subject to approval. The three Working Groups? contributions to the Sixth Assessment Report will be finalized in 2021. A Synthesis Report will complete the AR6 cycle in early 2022, integrating all the Working Group contributions and the findings of the three special reports.

[1] It?s the EU?s top job, and just two weeks ago she didn?t have a single commitment on the climate crisis. But in response, we sent over 75,000 messages to MEPs urging them to raise this in their meetings with her and to hold back their votes if she couldn?t come up with a bold plan. And while she didn?t turn into the kind of climate leader we?d hope for, it?s clear she?s been listening. In just days, she?s gone from nothing to agreeing that Europe isn?t doing enough and committing to increase its climate targets. She also plans to make Europe the first climate-neutral continent and wants to mobilise the money to do it. [2] It?s not perfect, and for now, it?s just hasty words. But it shows that our pressure is working -- if in just two weeks we can move her this far on climate, imagine what we can do in the next two months before she appoints her cabinet. We can shape the future of Europe together. The work doesn?t stop here. Von der Leyen will now pick 28 Commissioners who will help her lead Europe -- they will be responsible for everything from the climate, to jobs, to security and the rule of law. [3] And we?ll do the same thing we?ve been doing these last few weeks to make sure we get commissioners who represent our vision for Europe -- a Europe that puts people and planet first. We will send even more messages, do call-ins, meet with MEPs, put together stunts in Brussels, and join partners in the biggest #StrikeForClimate on the 20th of September.

They have built an extraordinary winery in Kakheti, Georgia, called Shilda. The form is a 'considered response to the environmental factors of the area and the qualities of the wine'. The building is quite literally embedded within the landscape of the vineyards, making it barely noticeable from a birds eye view. What's more, the thermal mass of the soil is used to optimise the cooling of the building, and most of the facade is facing towards the north to avoid direct solar gain, reducing energy waste.

The Public Prosecutor of Rome, contrary to what normally happens, did not consider it necessary to proceed with the arrest. Rita Bernardini made a spontaneous statement in the seizure report in which she expressed her disappointment for the decision not to proceed with her arrest, as is the case for all citizens who are caught growing marjiuana plants. "In this way double standards are being used and the law is, therefore, not equal for everyone. True civil disobedience requires that there are no political exemptions made when someone decides to violate the law in force. Thousands of sick people are unable to access cannabinoid drugs because of the inefficiency of the state and this is simply intolerable, especially as the law stipulating their administration dates back to 2007". Radical Party supports the petition ?Cambodian government locks out LI parliamentarians for backing? launched by Liberal International. Cambodia?s authoritarian government, led by hard-line prime minister Hun Sen, has reacted furiously to the endorsement of liberals and human rights defenders who pledged support to opposition leader Sam Rainsy?s right to return to his country, blacklisting entry for six European lawmakers who publicly declared their readiness to accompany Mr Sam home. FAO, IFAD, UNICEF, WFP and WHO have published a new edition of the annual The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2019 (SOFI 2019).The report is part of tracking progress towards Sustainable Development Goal 2 Zero Hunger, which aims to end hunger, promote food security and end all forms of malnutrition by 2030. An estimated 820 million people (in Asia: 513.9 million, in Africa: 256.1million, in Latin America and the Caribbean: 42.5 million) did not have enough to eat in 2018, up from 811 million in the previous year, which is the third year of increase in a row. The situation is most alarming in Africa, as the region has the highest rates of hunger in the world and which are continuing to slowly but steadily rise in almost all subregions. In Eastern Africa in particular, close to a third of the population (30.8 percent) is undernourished. The report estimates that over 2 billion people, mostly in low- and middle-income countries, do not have regular access to safe, nutritious and sufficient food. But irregular access is also a challenge for high-income countries, including 8 percent of the population in Northern America and Europe.

The declaration of the Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus followed a meeting of the International Health Regulations Emergency Committee for EVD in the DRC. The Committee cited recent developments in the outbreak in making its recommendation, including the first confirmed case in Goma, a city of almost two million people on the border with Rwanda, and the gateway to the rest of DRC and the world. Read more The European Commission has decided on a series of measures to further strengthen the rule of law in Europe, a prerequisite for citizens to enjoy their rights under EU law and for mutual trust among Member States. These initiatives are grouped around 3 pillars: promoting a rule of law culture; preventing rule of law problems: the Commission has decided to set up a Rule of Law Review Cycle, including an annual Rule of Law Report covering all EU Member States; responding effectively to breaches of the rule of law: the Commission will continue to make full use of its enforcement powers, if early detection and prevention measures are not effective. The Commission will adopt a strategic approach to infringement proceedings, bringing cases to the Court of Justice of the EU as necessary. In the light of the time sensitivity of such cases, the Commission will request interim measures and expedited procedures when needed. In addition, the Commission calls on the European Parliament and the Council to reflect on a collective approach to managing Article 7 TEU cases with clear procedural rules.

The European Parliament calls on the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) to withdraw the proposed and highly controversial amendments to its extradition law.

Nearly half a BILLION trees torn down and gone... forever. This is how they do it: armed militia swarm into protected areas, and indigenous leaders who stand up to them are murdered. There?s even stories of planes dropping gasoline to start massive forest fires. And Brazil's far-right President Bolsonaro is making it even worse by stripping the Amazon of its remaining protections! Right now, Amazon champions in Brazil?s Congress are considering sweeping new protections for the precious rainforest. And indigenous groups are calling for international support to ramp up pressure to defend their home. Let?s build a massive call of citizens from around the world to protect the forest -- when it's huge, allies will deliver our voices to Congress in each key moment to silence the chainsaws and stop this Amazon apocalypse! Click to save the Amazon Bolsonaro has praised forest killers, blocked money for key conservation programs and threatened to evict entire indigenous communities from their lands. And if we don?t stop it, it?s not just the forest we?ll lose. It could be everything. The Amazon breathes in and stores massive amounts of carbon -- and without it, there?s no chance of stopping the climate crisis. Members of the Brazilian Congress are about to introduce proposals that could bring illegal deforestation in Brazil to ZERO, and key indigenous leaders are calling on the world to support the defence of the forest. We can help them! The Amazon needs us right now. Add your name, and share widely to end the Amazon apocalypse before it?s too late.

[1] In just a few weeks, the leaders of the world's most powerful countries will meet in France, and there they could make this sanctuary a reality. The President of the EU Council Donald Tusk has voiced his support for a sanctuary before; now he has the perfect opportunity to turn his words into action by making sure this gets on the agenda for the meeting. Tusk will soon finish his term as president, and showing leadership on this could be a powerful way to shape his legacy. So let?s show him what to do in his last months in office -- to save the penguins and their home! Add your name to the call: Sign the petition The Antarctic Ocean supports an abundance of life that?s already struggling because of climate change - and now industrial fishing vessels are strangling the ecosystem by overfishing the krill that sustains it. [2] The Antarctic is majestic but it?s also fragile - it?s suffering at the frontline of the climate crisis and seeing huge biodiversity loss. But we know that protecting our oceans, particularly the Antarctic Ocean, can give a serious boost to global efforts to combat these twin crises [3]. Protect penguins in the Antarctic Our earth and the animals that call it home can?t speak for themselves, so it?s up to us to defend them. Let?s send a message to the one man who can help us finally protect the Antarctic - send a message to Donald Tusk now: Sign the petition Thank you for taking action to protect our shared home, Virginia (Madrid), Fatima (London), and the whole WeMove Europe team PS. Krill fishing has been a fast-growing industry. The latest fishing technology allows ?suction? harvesting of krill by large trawlers. Krill, an important source of food for penguins and other wildlife, have declined as much as 80% since the 1970s. [4] Take action now to make an Antarctic sanctuary a reality.
