Description: Rio Plus Ten by Neil Middleton, Phil O’Keefe Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Examines global warming and the unfolding of the arguments over climate change, GM crops, water, patents and other development issues. Publisher Description "Rio Plus Ten" was an international conference that took place in Johannesburg, South Africa in September 2002. In this book, the authors look at the agenda established since the original Rio conference in 1992 and cover the events of the intervening years: global warming and the unfolding arguments over climate change, energy, water and sanitation, patents and many other issues. They examine what progress - if any - has been made.Offering a critical analysis of the links between neo-liberal economics and transnational organizations, the authors expose the poverty of so-called international protocols and resolutions which claim to offer solutions. They show how, in virtually every case, these resolutions remain part of the problem of continuing poverty and environmental degradation in the non-Western world.
