La dimension multiculturelle de la culture du dialogue favoriserait la promotion d'une culture harmonieuse qui peut empêcher l'influence dangereuse sur la société provoquant une incertitude ,une crainte, une terreur et de haine qui mènent aux conflits et aux guerres.

1. Global Justice for all life on the planet
by Germain Dufour, with the Global Community
The Global Community Global Justice Movement has many inter-related components: monetary, social, economic, environmental, democracy, and peace. The Global Community Global Justice Movement promotes new thinking to benefit all economies and societies – the true, fair, democratic and efficient solution to poverty. The Global Community has the productive resources to eliminate poverty and injustice. Humanity is now in the process of developing the democratic and transparent communications infrastructure which can bring this about. Our approach transcends left-wing/right-wing designations. We see both conventional capitalism and socialism as being two arms of a philosophy which concentrate power in an elite, to the detriment of society as a whole. Reforming the current money system, to empower each and every person, is a first step for justice.

2. Global Warming: driving governments to take action , by John Bunzl – ISPO Founder, Trustee and Coordinator, jbunzl@simpol.org Simpol promotes the Simultaneous Policy (SP), which aims to deliver social justice around the world, resolve global problems like environmental destruction and regulate the economic power of international capital for the good of all. Simpol seeks solutions to problems that individual national governments cannot resolve by acting alone. Global warming is now at the top of the political agenda. But why aren't governments taking the necessary action? Because any nation legislating to curb the emissions of its industries will make its economy "uncompetitive" with other countries, thus risking investment and jobs moving elsewhere.

3. Letter sent: Indian Farmer Leader On India-US Pact On GMOs , by Krishan Bir Chaudhary and published by ASHOK B SHARMA, Indian Society For Sustainable Agriculture Indian Express Newspapers (Mumbai) Ltd. I am sending a brief note on "US-India Agricultural Knowledge Initiative" agreement on agriculture for your kind perusal. The entire agreement is shroud in mystery and the farmers of the country have serious apprehensions about the real intent and motive of the joint agreement. Indian Agricultural Scientists have done a very splendid job through years of sustained research. Their scientific acumen and compatibility can match the best of faculty in the world. This agriculture agreement will oblige our scientist to became a tool in the hands of the multinationals for advancement & promotion of their interest in India. I would like to give a brief on the entire gamut of the US-India agreement as the matter concerns India's sovereignty and the future of Indian agriculture.

4. Question of Direction , by Mike Nickerson and Donna Dillman,

http://synchronouscity.com/dirq.php Goals are the seeds from which the future grows.

When enough people understand this, the conventional wisdom will shift, moving from: our purpose is to expand production and onsumption to our purpose is to enjoy living while managing the planet for generations to come. As you know, the Question of Direction program aims to increase the rate at which this realization takes place.

5. Climate Change: A Moral Obligation for the Developed World The Nobel laureate calls for industrialized nations to step up their efforts on climate change for the sake of the world's poor. by Desmond Tutu, TomPaine.com, also in The Guardian, published in AlterNet: The Mix is the Message, Environment.

6. Resource Wars: Can We Survive Them? , by Stephen Lendman , lendmanstephen@sbcglobal.net Countercurrents.org This article addresses reckless living unmindful of the consequences. It's about endless wars and resources they're waged for. It's about gaining control of what we can't do without, but must learn to, or we'll risk losing far more, including the planet's ability to sustain life. If we reach that point, it won't matter except to resilient beetles and bacteria free at last from us. Instead of being an asset, superior human intelligence has us on the brink of our own self-destruction.

7. Deaths In Other Nations Since WW II Due To Us Interventions, by James A. Lucas , published in Countercurrents.org , After the catastrophic attacks of September 11 2001 monumental sorrow and a feeling of desperate and understandable anger began to permeate the American psyche. A few people at that time attempted to promote a balanced perspective by pointing out that the United States had also been responsible for causing those same feelings in people in other nations, but they produced hardly a ripple.

1. Our Obligation To The World, by Paul Buchheit, published in Countercurrents.org, Our way of life depends on a continuation of the economic and energy policies that keep billions of people in poverty.

He asserts that behind the US-Ethiopian political alliance lies a strategic move to secure positioning in this oil region.

5. Israel's 40 Years of Occupation: From Democratic State to Violent Oppressor Israel captured and occupied the Gaza Strip and the West Bank 40 years ago this week. Over that time, Israel's image has shifted from that of an open society set amid a sea of despotic regimes to that of an international pariah. by Chris Hedges, Truthdig, published in AlterNet: The Mix is the Message.

9. Earth, Inc. Sliding Into Bankruptcy, by Stephen Leahy , Inter Press Service Build a shrimp farm in Thailand by cutting down mangrove forests and you will net about 8,000 dollars per hectare. Meanwhile, the destruction of the forest and pollution from the farm will result in a loss of ecosystems worth 35,000 dollars/ha per year.

The rampant slashing and burning of tropical forests is second only to the energy sector as a source of greenhouses gases according to report published today by the Oxford-based Global Canopy Programme, an alliance of leading rainforest scientists.

9. Peak Soil: Why cellulosic ethanol, biofuels are unsustainable and a threat to America. There are many serious problems with biofuels, especially on a massive scale, and it appears from this report that they cannot be surmounted. So let the truth of Alice Friedemann’s meticulous and incisive diligence wash over you and rid you of any confusion or false hopes. The absurdity and destructiveness of large scale biofuels are a chance for people to eventually even reject the internal combustion engine and energy waste in general. One can also hazard from this report that bioplastics, as well, cannot make it in a big way. by Alice Friedemann, with Culture Change. Culture Change was founded by Sustainable Energy Institute. The nation that destroys its soil destroys itself.

by Germain Dufour, with the Global Community
The Global Community Global Justice Movement has many inter-related components: monetary, social, economic, environmental, democracy, and peace. The Global Community Global Justice Movement promotes new thinking to benefit all economies and societies – the true, fair, democratic and efficient solution to poverty. The Global Community has the productive resources to eliminate poverty and injustice. Humanity is now in the process of developing the democratic and transparent communications infrastructure which can bring this about. Our approach transcends left-wing/right-wing designations. We see both conventional capitalism and socialism as being two arms of a philosophy which concentrate power in an elite, to the detriment of society as a whole. Reforming the current money system, to empower each and every person, is a first step for justice.

2. One Billion To Be Displaced By 2050 , by Agence France Presse, Countercurrents.org At least one billion people risk fleeing their homes over the next four decades because of conflicts and natural disasters that will worsen with global warming, a relief agency warned Monday. In a report, British-based Christian Aid said countries worldwide, especially the poorest, are now facing the greatest forced migration ever — one that will dwarf those displaced by World War II.

3. Deforestation: The Hidden Cause Of Global Warming , by Daniel Howden , The Independent Countercurrents.org The accelerating destruction of the rainforests that form a precious cooling band around the Earth's equator, is now being recognised as one of the main causes of climate change. Carbon emissions from deforestation far outstrip damage caused by planes and automobiles and factories. The rampant slashing and burning of tropical forests is second only to the energy sector as a source of greenhouses gases according to report published today by the Oxford-based Global Canopy Programme, an alliance of leading rainforest scientists.

La dimension multiculturelle du dialogue by AMMAR BANNI, Professeur de français et poète ammarbanni@yahoo.fr Il est donc indispensable pour que la culture du dialogue établisse un système multiculturel efficace, aux niveaux régionaux et mondiaux ,et pour accomplir cette tâche ,il est recommandé que le dialogue et sa culture interculturel devraient investir pour le développement de sa culture multiculturelle qui aident les peuples et les nations pour se comprendre et se respecter ; ceci réduirait la possibilité de conflits des cultures et des civilisations . La dimension multiculturelle de la culture du dialogue favoriserait la promotion d'une culture harmonieuse qui peut empêcher l'influence dangereuse sur la société provoquant une incertitude ,une crainte, une terreur et de haine qui mènent aux conflits et aux guerres.

1. Global Warming: driving governments to take action , by John Bunzl – ISPO Founder, Trustee and Coordinator, jbunzl@simpol.org Simpol promotes the Simultaneous Policy (SP), which aims to deliver social justice around the world, resolve global problems like environmental destruction and regulate the economic power of international capital for the good of all. Simpol seeks solutions to problems that individual national governments cannot resolve by acting alone. Global warming is now at the top of the political agenda. But why aren't governments taking the necessary action? Because any nation legislating to curb the emissions of its industries will make its economy "uncompetitive" with other countries, thus risking investment and jobs moving elsewhere.

1. Letter sent: Indian Farmer Leader On India-US Pact On GMOs , by Krishan Bir Chaudhary and published by ASHOK B SHARMA, Indian Society For Sustainable Agriculture Indian Express Newspapers (Mumbai) Ltd. I am sending a brief note on "US-India Agricultural Knowledge Initiative" agreement on agriculture for your kind perusal. The entire agreement is shroud in mystery and the farmers of the country have serious apprehensions about the real intent and motive of the joint agreement. Indian Agricultural Scientists have done a very splendid job through years of sustained research. Their scientific acumen and compatibility can match the best of faculty in the world. This agriculture agreement will oblige our scientist to became a tool in the hands of the multinationals for advancement & promotion of their interest in India. I would like to give a brief on the entire gamut of the US-India agreement as the matter concerns India's sovereignty and the future of Indian agriculture.

1. Resource Wars: Can We Survive Them? , by Stephen Lendman , lendmanstephen@sbcglobal.net Countercurrents.org This article addresses reckless living unmindful of the consequences. It's about endless wars and resources they're waged for. It's about gaining control of what we can't do without, but must learn to, or we'll risk losing far more, including the planet's ability to sustain life. If we reach that point, it won't matter except to resilient beetles and bacteria free at last from us. Instead of being an asset, superior human intelligence has us on the brink of our own self-destruction.

1. Deaths In Other Nations Since WW II Due To Us Interventions, by James A. Lucas , published in Countercurrents.org , After the catastrophic attacks of September 11 2001 monumental sorrow and a feeling of desperate and understandable anger began to permeate the American psyche. A few people at that time attempted to promote a balanced perspective by pointing out that the United States had also been responsible for causing those same feelings in people in other nations, but they produced hardly a ripple.

1. Globalization And Democracy: Some Basics, by Michael Parenti , Michaelparenti.org Countercurrents.org The fight against free trade is a fight for the right to politico-economic democracy, public services, and a social wage, the right not to be completely at the mercy of big capital. The goal of the transnational corporation is to become truly transnational, poised above the sovereign power of any particular nation, while being served by the sovereign powers of all nations.

1. Human Rights And Globalization, by Dr. Samir Naim-Ahmed, published in Countercurrents.org Would globalization enhance the implementation of human rights as stated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights ( 1948 ) and the subsequent United Nations agreements , particularly the covenant on civil and political rights ( 1966 ), the covenant on economic, social and cultural rights (1966 ) and the declaration on the right to development (1986 )?

1. The Hidden War For Oil , by Carl Bloice , Countercurrents.org The US bombing of Somalia took place while the World Social Forum was underway in Kenya, three days before a large anti-war action in Washington on 27 January 2007. Carl Bloice elucidates the failure or unwillingness of the Western media to accurately report the invasion and occupation of Somalia by a US backed Ethiopian government. He asserts that behind the US-Ethiopian political alliance lies a strategic move to secure positioning in this oil region.

1. Israel's 40 Years of Occupation: From Democratic State to Violent Oppressor Israel captured and occupied the Gaza Strip and the West Bank 40 years ago this week. Over that time, Israel's image has shifted from that of an open society set amid a sea of despotic regimes to that of an international pariah. by Chris Hedges, Truthdig, published in AlterNet: The Mix is the Message.

1. Global Warming Health Effects Higher temperatures over the coming decades are expected to cause more smoggy days and heat waves, contributing to a greater number of illnesses and deaths in the United States, according to international climate scientists. by Jane Kay, The San Francisco Chronicle, TruthOut.org, published in AlterNet: The Mix is the Message, EnviroHealth.

2. Peak Soil: Why cellulosic ethanol, biofuels are unsustainable and a threat to America. There are many serious problems with biofuels, especially on a massive scale, and it appears from this report that they cannot be surmounted. So let the truth of Alice Friedemann’s meticulous and incisive diligence wash over you and rid you of any confusion or false hopes. The absurdity and destructiveness of large scale biofuels are a chance for people to eventually even reject the internal combustion engine and energy waste in general. One can also hazard from this report that bioplastics, as well, cannot make it in a big way. by Alice Friedemann, with Culture Change. Culture Change was founded by Sustainable Energy Institute. The nation that destroys its soil destroys itself.

2. Deaths In Other Nations Since WW II Due To Us Interventions, by James A. Lucas , published in Countercurrents.org , After the catastrophic attacks of September 11 2001 monumental sorrow and a feeling of desperate and understandable anger began to permeate the American psyche. A few people at that time attempted to promote a balanced perspective by pointing out that the United States had also been responsible for causing those same feelings in people in other nations, but they produced hardly a ripple.

Strengthen Women’s Resistance: Oppose Imperialism’s Intensifying Attacks! Assert Women’s Basic Human Rights! In Canada, a patriarchal resurgence and ever-more entrenched systemic racism are intensifying the exploitation, oppression, and economic exclusion of working class, (im)migrant, refugee and Indigenous women. We are hard hit by the neo-liberal policies of the Canadian government of liberalization, deregulation and privatization which leave working class women unable to earn a decent income or to access affordable housing, health, and other services. Amidst rising corporate profiteering, government corruption, and military spending, government funding for childcare and women’s programs have been slashed. The insultingly paltry and unjustly distributed $100/month childcare benefit has been a slap in the face for women demanding a genuinely universal national childcare program. (Im)migrant and refugee women face the punitive and exploitative nature of immigration policies such as the Live-in Caregiver Program and unjust deportations. Indigenous women face the ongoing colonization of their land and resources.

5. The Crime of War in Iraq , by DR. Charles Mercieca , International Association of Educators for World Peace, Professor Emeritus, Alabama A and M University, Environmental Protection, Human Rights & Disarmament What is the purpose of having rules and regulations when we can disregard them at will at any moment we like? Since the early days of human existence, those that transgressed rules and regulations to the detriment of others always tended to be punished, sooner or later. In order for us to understand the seriousness of such violations, we need to understand properly the significance of laws. In order to do that, we must have a clear concept of the four hierarchical laws of which ascetical writers spoke over the past several centuries.

7. GREAT SHIFT OF POWER, by Triaka Smith, The CONSTITUTION of UNITED DIVERSITY, The New Earth Cooperative
To explain, since "Justice" is the principle of Moral Rightness, its a rational view that to force a human being into submission when that person has neither threatened nor caused harm to others, is both Irrational Enslavement and Morally Unjust. In this connection, it's worth noting that while civilized people have voluntarily agreed to make illegal the Initiation of Physical Force by one human upon another, as in murder, rape, and robbery, no government on earth has yet been held to the same Moral Standard.

1. A Predator Becomes More Dangerous When Wounded, by Noam Chomsky, with The Guardian, and published in Countercurrents.org For the US, the primary issue in the Middle East has been, and remains, effective control of its unparalleled energy resources. A US attack on Iran would effectively launch WWIII. The US invasion of Iraq virtually instructed Iran to develop a nuclear deterrent. The message was that the US attacks at will, as long as the target is defenceless. Then again, a predator becomes even more dangerous, and less predictable, when wounded. In desperation to salvage something, the Bush administration might risk even greater disasters. It has created an unimaginable catastrophe in Iraq. It has been unable to establish a reliable client state within, and cannot withdraw without facing the possible loss of control of the Middle East's energy resources.

2. Losing Focus: Peace And Justice Movement In Britain At Crossroad, by Ramzy Baroud, author of The Second Palestinian Intifada: A Chronology of a People’s Struggle published in Countercurrents.org I believe that the action of a true peace and justice activist must stem from concern for humanity, not from racism and prejudice; however, to suppress freedom of expression, settle personal grievances at the expense of a most colorful and ideologically diverse movement, thus the honorable cause it stands for, is to do an immense disservice to all of us concerned with bringing to a halt a most bloody and raging conflict in the Middle East.

2. The rise of seafood awareness campaigns in an era of collapsing fisheries doi:10.1016/j.marpol.2006.09.003, by Jennifer L. Jacquet. and Daniel Pauly, The Sea Around Us Project, The Fisheries Centre, University of British Columbia, 2202 Main Mall, Vancouver, BC, Canada V6T 1Z4 The human appetite for seafood has intensified and so has overfishing and damage to marine ecosystems. Recently, the response to the fisheries crisis has included a considerable effort directed toward raising the seafood awareness of consumers in North America and Europe. The resulting campaigns aim to affect the seafood demand and to lead to a sustainable seafood supply. Though there are indicators of some regional successes, lack of support by the Asian market and the proliferation of self-serving seafood labels are but two of the many significant limitations of these campaigns. This contribution investigates the difficulties and successes of seafood awareness campaigns, as well as the need for indicators of campaign effectiveness.

Gerber, T. Wassenaar, V. Castel, M.

The assessment is based on the most recent and complete data available, taking into account direct impacts, along with the impacts of feed crop agriculture required for livestock production. The livestock sector emerges as one of the top two or three most significant contributors to the most serious environmental problems, at every scale from local to global. The findings of this report suggest that it should be a major policy focus when dealing with problems of land degradation, climate change and air pollution, water shortage and water pollution, and loss of biodiversity. Livestock’s contribution to environmental problems is on a massive scale and its potential contribution to their solution is equally large. The impact is so significant that it needs to be addressed with urgency. Major reductions in impact could be achieved at reasonable cost.

1. The Crime of War in Iraq , by DR. Charles Mercieca , International Association of Educators for World Peace, Professor Emeritus, Alabama A and M University, Environmental Protection, Human Rights & Disarmament What is the purpose of having rules and regulations when we can disregard them at will at any moment we like? Since the early days of human existence, those that transgressed rules and regulations to the detriment of others always tended to be punished, sooner or later. In order for us to understand the seriousness of such violations, we need to understand properly the significance of laws. In order to do that, we must have a clear concept of the four hierarchical laws of which ascetical writers spoke over the past several centuries.

2. GREAT SHIFT OF POWER, by Triaka Smith, The CONSTITUTION of UNITED DIVERSITY, The New Earth Cooperative
To explain, since "Justice" is the principle of Moral Rightness, its a rational view that to force a human being into submission when that person has neither threatened nor caused harm to others, is both Irrational Enslavement and Morally Unjust. In this connection, it's worth noting that while civilized people have voluntarily agreed to make illegal the Initiation of Physical Force by one human upon another, as in murder, rape, and robbery, no government on earth has yet been held to the same Moral Standard.

3. A Predator Becomes More Dangerous When Wounded, by Noam Chomsky, with The Guardian, and published in Countercurrents.org For the US, the primary issue in the Middle East has been, and remains, effective control of its unparalleled energy resources. A US attack on Iran would effectively launch WWIII. The US invasion of Iraq virtually instructed Iran to develop a nuclear deterrent. The message was that the US attacks at will, as long as the target is defenceless. Then again, a predator becomes even more dangerous, and less predictable, when wounded. In desperation to salvage something, the Bush administration might risk even greater disasters. It has created an unimaginable catastrophe in Iraq. It has been unable to establish a reliable client state within, and cannot withdraw without facing the possible loss of control of the Middle East's energy resources.

6. GREAT SHIFT OF POWER, by Triaka Smith, The CONSTITUTION of UNITED DIVERSITY, The New Earth Cooperative
To explain, since "Justice" is the principle of Moral Rightness, its a rational view that to force a human being into submission when that person has neither threatened nor caused harm to others, is both Irrational Enslavement and Morally Unjust. In this connection, it's worth noting that while civilized people have voluntarily agreed to make illegal the Initiation of Physical Force by one human upon another, as in murder, rape, and robbery, no government on earth has yet been held to the same Moral Standard.

4. A Predator Becomes More Dangerous When Wounded, by Noam Chomsky, with The Guardian, and published in Countercurrents.org For the US, the primary issue in the Middle East has been, and remains, effective control of its unparalleled energy resources. A US attack on Iran would effectively launch WWIII. The US invasion of Iraq virtually instructed Iran to develop a nuclear deterrent. The message was that the US attacks at will, as long as the target is defenceless. Then again, a predator becomes even more dangerous, and less predictable, when wounded. In desperation to salvage something, the Bush administration might risk even greater disasters. It has created an unimaginable catastrophe in Iraq. It has been unable to establish a reliable client state within, and cannot withdraw without facing the possible loss of control of the Middle East's energy resources.

1. Raising global taxes, by Germain Dufour, The Global Community proposes a Green Tax Shift Policy Approach to financing local-to-global public goods. There is a troublesome and painful contradiction in the lives of many of us who are working for peace, justice, poverty eradication, debt cancellation and sustainable development. While our hearts and minds focus on building a better world for everyone, each day we hand over fistfuls of dollars to build weapons of mass destruction, fuel dangerous, dirty and polluting technologies, and subsidize huge conglomerates which concentrate the wealth of the world in the control of the few. But together we can end tax tyranny and align our visions and values with how we finance our governments. The Global Community was looking for a method of raising global taxes, of redistributing incomes to the poorest communities, of providing debt-free technical assistance to non-industrial and developing countries to help them out of poverty and to meet environmental and social standards, but there it was all along right on our eyes.

Marine ecosystems, fisheries, Eco-label, seafood, and social marketing aspects and issues

1. The rise of seafood awareness campaigns in an era of collapsing fisheries doi:10.1016/j.marpol.2006.09.003, by Jennifer L. Jacquet. and Daniel Pauly, The Sea Around Us Project, The Fisheries Centre, University of British Columbia, 2202 Main Mall, Vancouver, BC, Canada V6T 1Z4 The human appetite for seafood has intensified and so has overfishing and damage to marine ecosystems. Recently, the response to the fisheries crisis has included a considerable effort directed toward raising the seafood awareness of consumers in North America and Europe. The resulting campaigns aim to affect the seafood demand and to lead to a sustainable seafood supply. Though there are indicators of some regional successes, lack of support by the Asian market and the proliferation of self-serving seafood labels are but two of the many significant limitations of these campaigns. This contribution investigates the difficulties and successes of seafood awareness campaigns, as well as the need for indicators of campaign effectiveness.
