Good wishes for the year starting from the hand of the major environmental organizations: more aid to preserve biodiversity and a more ambitious on reducing emissions
Greenpeace, WWF (Adena), Ecologists in Action and SEO / BirdLife been asked to further aid in 2011 for biodiversity ( in decline for decades), and an agreement to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases (the main cause of climate change) most ambitious and committed by the English Government for the year 2020.
course it is understandable that both issues attracted the attention and good wishes of the environmental world. The change in climate as the extinction of species are very serious issues to be tackled decisively and without loss and longer. We do not talk and speculation, no doubt about the magnitude of the irreparable damage that has caused human action and (if we do nothing) will continue doing to the planet's biodiversity and climate. Among the issues that drew attention to environmentalism in 2011, Mario RodrÃguez, Greenpeace campaigns director, stresses that this will be a "key year" in the fight against climate change, and also predicts that "will the year that Europe takes the lead or lost forever in the art and Spain has to be pushing for the EU to not disappoint the world ". " We want the minister (the turncoat Rosa Aguilar) limited to the Ministry of green paint. We want the English government clearly bet on renewables, by the end of our fishing fleet overcapacity, for stalling the process of choice of location of nuclear graveyard " details the campaigns director of Greenpeace. For the next year further claims without transgenic agriculture, chemical sustainability agency, a public procurement policy that prevents the entry of illegally harvested timber. "We want the illegal hotel is demolished Algarrobico " he added.
Meanwhile, Ecologists in Action states that in 2011, to combat climate change is an essential change in energy policies and the abandonment of coal and other polluting energy sources, and their replacement by renewable energy. Among its requests, also add less oil to less cars, and is proposing Ecologists in Action September 22 each (the 'Car Free Day') as one of the key elements to improve quality of life in cities. Moreover, it indicates that in 2011 requires the completion of tax resistance, for which detracts from the personal income tax the amount that goes to military spending and is intended to another organization that advocates peace.
RENEWABLE ENERGY LAW FOR 2011
On behalf of WWF, the environmental organization insists on setting the goal of reducing CO2 emissions in Spain for 2020 and "more ambitious" that agreed in the Kyoto Protocol 2012, while approving a law on renewable energy and energy efficiency and achieving in Durban (South Africa) an ambitious climate agreement, fair and binding.
permanently promote the creation of the 'Natura 2000' marina and establish at least three Marine Areas Protected areas (MPAs) new, with processes of participation in the fishing industry and environmental organizations in the definition of management plans and monitoring of these areas, are some of their requests for 2011.
also wants to ensure in 2011 that river environmental flow regimes are appropriate and based on purely technical criteria, rather than political, for the recovery or maintenance of wetlands, as well as to ensure the legal origin and sustainable wood consumed in Spain and approve a State Plan for Forest Resources Management (PEORF) together with the autonomous communities.
MORE SHIPPING DISCLAIMER
Finally, SEO / BirdLife, requested a continuation to the work of demarcation of the maritime-terrestrial public domain, which targets and is less than 10 percent of the coast boundaries.
"The Government of Spain has launched sectoral plans that define what each of the ministries should do or should stop doing to achieve the objectives of biodiversity conservation defined by the Act and the Natural Heritage Biodiversity , criticized the NGO, while states that the relevant approval after public consultation should end in 2011 and has not yet begun.
Finally, criticizes the Ministry of Environment and Rural and Marine because he says he has not approved the new "Endangered Species List," with scientific criteria to include all species actually threatened, or the 'English Catalogue of Invasive Alien Species', nor the 'English Catalogue of Endangered Habitats', including the endangered habitats.
