Rethinking globalisation in the light of Contraction and Convergence
with Dr Elisabeth Corell, Converge Project Leader, The Natural Step.
‘How, given the current situation, do we manage and allocate, today, the Earth’s resources for the survival of a projected global population of 9 to 10 billion people in 2050 – and for their offspring indefinitely?’
An exciting research project from the European Union has been launched to explore a new framework for globalization. Dr Elisabeth Corell, Converge Project Leader at The Natural Step, joins Think Globally Radio to discuss the concept of contraction and convergence and the planned outcomes from this four year project.
Dr Corell will also discuss her hands-on experiences of international environmental negotiations, her view of the recent developments in the climate change negotiations and the recent alleged scandals related to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, IPCC.
