Recent research published in this week's New Scientist and The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, show that 'commons' communities would do a better job of managing forests than state control. Government control generally leads to enclosure (privatisation) and licensing rights for logging, or an expectation that the forest will not last leading to unsustainable exploitation.

Carbon storage potential is especially improved when community organisations and their institutions "incorporate local knowledge and decentralized decision making" to "restrict their consumption of forest products". read full story / add a comment

It's been quite some time since Berlusconi has done his baffoonery stage act at the official podium of his political office. We've seen Berlusconi on TV (his tv) at disaster sites, on foreign visits, at his football stadium, talking about his villa - but yesterday he yet again told journalists
"he is irreplacable"
"he is the most persecuted in history" - so many lawsuits. Thankfully he has the two thirds of a billion to pay damages against those who say he is corrupt. & his little slip of the tongue was precious.He confided that his wealth allowed him the fortune to defend himself and buy 200 million euros worth of judges. Oooooops. "l-a-w-y-e-r-s". Either someone got to his teleprompter or this is Caesar after the soothsayer shock.

European politics are no doubt scintilating for the average Irish citizen now Lisbon2 is behind us & our continuing place at the heart of Europe is assured. We expect the Dáil expense scandal which hints at as much outragous sociopathic graft & cheek as our rivals in the British parliament will keep us in the top rankings. We can read about Berlusconi unknowingly frolicking with prostitutes and cocaine traffickers and think it slightly pathetic that he imagined his pretty guests were up & gaggin for it. Now new scandal at the heart of Europe which alas, is in the process of being hijacked by the far right! Sarkozy's minister of Culture, Frédéric Mitterrand, who though son of the socialist president chose a rightwing career path, is at the heart of the EU. In the lead-up to a new set of agreements between France and Thailand to stem sex tourism, passages from the minister's 2005 biography describing the thrill of sex with young Thai boys are raising interest of both prurient and legitimate nature. read full story / add a comment
