Only One Earth podcasts
In preparation for Rio+20 I, Michael Strauss with Maurice Strong wrote a book "Only One Earth: The Long Road via Rio to Sustainable Development - looking at the history of the last 40 years and what the challenges for the future are. Of course I would love you all to read the book. If you want some teasers then I produced four podcasts which you might want to listen to:
- EXCERPTS FROM 'ONLY ONE EARTH' - CHAPTER 1: STOCKHOLM 1972
- EXCERPTS FROM 'ONLY ONE EARTH' - CHAPTER 2: EARTH SUMMIT 1992, RIO DE JANEIRO
- EXCERPTS FROM 'ONLY ONE EARTH' - CHAPTER 3: WORLD SUMMIT ON SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT, JOHANNESBURG 2002
- EXCERPTS FROM 'ONLY ONE EARTH' - CHAPTER 4: RIO+20 A NEW BEGINNING
It is important as many of us are preparing to attend the UN General Assembly in ten days time (23 September) where there will be important decisions on the road to the Post-2015 - to reflect on what we have learnt in the past. The book and the podcasts try and not only look at the outcomes but also what real world activities that impacted on the conferences and the implementation of the outcomes. I hope you enjoy the podcasts.
