Charter of Climate Change Rights and Responsibility:
|
CACOR is pleased to post our Charter of Climate Change Rights and Responsibility that we would like to see enacted into legislation in all jurisdictions. Please help by urging municipal counsellors and MPs and MLAs to support this initiative. We believe the Charter is self-explanatory but the ideas embedded within the Charter are drawn from insights CACOR drew from the Pathways Project (see postings on the website as well).
|
Similarly, we have launched the call for the adoption of this Charter with a set of 7 initial companion recommendations also drawn from Pathways insights except for the biological ones. Please note we intend to advocate for further recommendations as seem useful. Your ideas for future recommendations are welcome. But for now, there is much to do to ask your friends and organizations and networks you know to post this Charter everywhere so more Canadians become familiar with it. If adopted, it would provide a framework to prevent future governments from inaction. Please consider both documents carefully.

Overpopulation Denial Syndrome* Let’s stop with an Aesop’s fable – The Tale of the North Wind and the Sun. The North Wind and the Sun had a quarrel about which of them was the stronger. While they were disputing with much heat and bluster, a Traveler passed along the road wrapped in a cloak. “Let us agree,” said the Sun, …

The photovoltaic effect of ferroelectric crystals can be increased by a factor of 1,000 if three different materials are arranged periodically in a lattice. This has been revealed in a study by researchers at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU).

Each creeps up year after year, fuelled by human-caused greenhouse gas emissions. And while climate records are being routinely broken, the cumulative impact of these changes could also cause fundamental parts of the Earth system to …
