for a global governance architecture for the protection and resettlement of

extension of the definition of refugees under the 1951 Geneva Convention
Relating to the Status of Refugees and against any role of the UN Security
Council. Key elements of the proposal advanced in this paper are instead a new
legal instrument specifically tailored to the needs of climate refugees—a
Protocol on Recognition, Protection, and Resettlement of Climate Refugees to
the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change—as well as a separate
funding mechanism, the Climate Refugee Protection and Resettlement Fund. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

the latest UN Human Development Report (HDR) released yesterday.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Helvetica"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>The report fears climate change
will hit the poorest countries the most by breaking down agricultural systems,
worsening water scarcity, increasing risks of diseases and triggering mass
displacement due to recurring floods, and storms like the recent Cyclone Sidr.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Helvetica"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>
Describing the effects of
climate change on the poorest as apocalyptic, the HDR states, "Those who
have largely caused the problem--the rich countries--are not going to be those
who suffer the most in the short term. It is the poorest who did not and still
are not contributing significantly to green house gas emissions that are the
most vulnerable."<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Helvetica"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>“The near-term vulnerabilities
are not concentrated in lower Manhattan and London, but in flood-prone areas of
Bangladesh and drought-prone parts of sub-Saharan Africa," said Kevin
Watkins, the lead author of the report titled Fighting Climate Change.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Helvetica"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>This year's human development
index ranked Bangladesh at 140 among 177 nations, the same spot as last
year's.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Helvetica"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>The HDR report cautioned that
temperature scenarios do not capture the potential impact of climate change on
human development. "Business-as-usual scenarios will trigger large scale
reversals in human development, undermining livelihoods and causing mass
displacement."
UNDP administrator Kemal Dervis in his introduction to
the report said, "It is the poor, a constituency with no responsibility
for the ecological debt we are running up, who face the most immediate and
severe human costs."
With only 15 percent of world population, rich
countries account for nearly half of global carbon dioxide emissions, with the
United States leaving a carbon footprint that is nearly 70 times higher than in
Bangladesh.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Helvetica"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>The HDR strongly urged the
developed nations to show leadership by cutting emissions by at least 80
percent from 1990 levels by 2050, and put climate change adaptation at the
centre of international poverty reduction programmes.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Helvetica"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>According to the report, human
development faces a 'massive threat' with up to 300 million people living in
coastal regions being displaced by increased frequency of floods and storms
like Sidr.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Helvetica"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>Climate change is also
likely to cause breakdown of agricultural systems that would significantly
affect Bangladesh, leaving large sections of people facing malnutrition.
The
global figure of the population at risk cited by the report is 600 million.
Forty-seven percent of children in Bangladesh are already malnourished.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Helvetica"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>The report states that an
additional 1.8 billion people are at risk of water scarcity by 2080, with
hundreds of millions at increased risk of contracting diseases like Malaria.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Helvetica"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>The UNDP report called upon
nations to adopt a 'twin-track' approach with measures to mitigate future
warming while helping at-risk nations to adapt to human-induced climate change.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

competition is open to advanced doctoral and post-doctoral students, and to
professionals engaged in the practice of harnessing science and technology to
promote sustainable development. Applicants should describe how their work
would contribute to "sustainability science," the emerging field of
use-inspired research seeking understanding of the interactions between human
and environmental systems as well as the application of such knowledge to
sustainability challenges relating to advancing development of agriculture,
habitation, energy and materials, health and water while conserving the earth's
life support systems. This year we will give some preference to
applicants who address the challenges related to meeting human needs for water
in the context of sustainable development. In addition to general funds
available to support this fellowship offering, special funding for the Giorgio
Ruffolo Fellowships in Sustainability Science is available to support citizens
of Italy or developing countries who are therefore especially encouraged to
apply. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Helvetica">Present marine
ecosystems are experiencing simultaneously the effects of high and increasing
levels of fishing pressure (FAO, 2001) and the in-depth structural
modifications induced by climate changes. The unprecedented speed and magnitude
of those global phenomena raise serious concerns about the very fate of marine
ecosystems and their future (in-)ability to sustain services to human societies
such as fisheries or carbon uptake and export. To answer quickly those weighty
questions, it is urgent for scientists to achieve a reliable predictive
capability through the development of the next generation of ecosystem models
which has to embody a high degree of mechanistic details and ecological
realism. In the framework of EUROCEANS, the objective of the present project is
to couple on-line three state of the art oceanic models, considering explicitly
at physical, biogeochemical and ecosystem levels the bottom-up and top-down
controls that interact, propagate and finally determine the dynamics of marine
ecosystems.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

NPA ecosystem model at the scale of the global ocean.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Helvetica">This end-to-end generic
