POLICY
1.1. EU Seeks Talks

Bruselj, Ljubljana, 3. november 2005 – Mednarodna okoljevarstvena organizacija WWF je izdala poročilo, ki dokazuje, da lahko EU svoje izpuste toplogrednih plinov zmanjša za eno tretjino do leta 2020, če energijo uporablja bolj učinkovito in jo pridobiva iz obnovljivih virov energije. Da bi olajšali delo lokalnim skupnostim, ki želijo izrabljati obnovljive vire energije, so v Fokus društvu za sonaraven razvoj pripravili brošurico Vključevanje lokalnih skupnosti v financiranje obnovljivih virov energije.

Avtomobil nam škoduje veliko bolj, kot bi si bili pripravljeni priznati. Neizmerne količine škodljivih emisij, številne nesreče in krepki stroški so le najbolj opazne posledice pretirane rabe avtomobila. Številna svetovna mesta zato vsako leto 22. septembra izpeljejo akcijo Dan brez avtomobila: javnost želijo spodbuditi k razmišljanju o tem, kako zaživeti bolj trajnostno, z manj povzročene škode in z več gibanja.

Ljubljana, 6. september 2005 - Spodbujanje in ukrepanje na področju preprečevanja nastajanja odpadkov in zmanjševanja količin odpadkov so velika priložnost in izziv za slovensko gospodarstvo. V iskanju odgovorov na razvojna vprašanja je področje preprečevanja nastajanja odpadkov velikokrat potisnjeno na rob razprav. Fokus in Umanotera sta na javni razpravi v Državnem svetu Republike Slovenije predstavile vrsto priporočil Vladi za izboljšanje stanja na tem področju. Preprečevanje zahteva drugačno okoljsko in industrijsko politiko, povezovanje med raziskovalci in industrijo, razvoj spodbudnih sistemskih in finančnih rešitev.
