Learning your carbon ABCs for the green-collar future

 

GREEN-collar workers are the new black. If the government’s proposal to encourage the environmental goods and services industry of SA comes off, it will, according to the spokesman for the minister of water and environmental affairs, Sputnik Ratau, create an estimated 114000 new jobs.

Countless other green-collar skills and responsibilities of varying degrees and at every level of employment will be required when it becomes mandatory for companies to complete and submit the department’s highly anticipated greenhouse gas emission reports. A discussion document to investigate measures to implement carbon taxes is due to be released later this year.

Where things stand on the Copenhagen Accord and international climate politics

 

After the Copenhagen Accord was “noted” by the UN in December, there was a great deal of insta-analysis. In truth, there was no real way to evaluate the Accord because the meat of it—the emission-reduction commitments from participating countries—was blank. Literally:
The deadline for participating countries to submit their commitments was Jan. 31—yesterday. So, how do things look now that the cards are on the table? Where do we stand on international efforts to address climate change?
