| Copenhagen climate conference: failure or opportunity? |
|

A rare consensus between politicians, NGO's and commentators is that the climate conference held in Copenhagen had failed in a achieving its goals. The deep disappointment stems from an almost unbridgeable gap between the urgency of the need to reduce emissions in order to prevent unrestrained worldwide temperature rise, and the "light" agreement that lacks legally binding mechanism or clear quantitative objectives to cut gas emissions.

| The Importance of Rehabilitating Prisoners in Society |

A thriving local community is invaluable. I am a devoted advocate of developing strong local communities.
When considering communities, it is important to acknowledge the social circles in which people are affiliated to. It is often said that a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. That is why I am glad to devote this article to the efforts of the local community in the North East and support prisoners in our regional prisons, as well as their families. North Eastern Prison After Care Society (NEPACS), a limited charitable company, which I am associated with, conducts worthy activities whose roots go back to the end of the 19th Century.

It is no secret that environmental policies are much easier to implement within each country (in the domestic framework) than on the international level.

The ideology between the fair trade organizations is admirable, as it combines an innocent ambition to change the world and a practical, methodological system that does change it.
