Seen that? - Dealing with climate change
(Photo from the UK's Environment Agency) So far I haven't touched much on climate change and global warming, but this is an extremely important part of the future of international development.

And this is a world-wide truth that could be worth trillions of dollars in the next five years. In a report released by Shell UK, actions related to climate change mitigation might be a drop in Britain's economy (only 0.3 percent of total national output) but the opportunities [...] Read More
