Droughts and desertification as impact of climate change
Droughts have been a cause of concern in all part of the world for centuries. There are references for the same in the holy texts such as the holy Torah, the Bible and the holy Qur’an. Yusuf/Joseph, the youngest son of Yaqoob/Jacob, the messenger of Allah/God has recorded to have advised the king of Egypt for preparing for the drought years on the basis of a dream that the King saw and mentioned to former prisoner living with Joseph (peace be upon him). King acted upon the interpretation of his dream provided by Joseph (peace be upon him) and prepared for 7 years of drought. Similarly, desertification has been a process that has been recorded as one of the process that has been on in various parts of world. Droughts are marked by the absence of rain or inadequate rain that is responsible for loss of crops or inadequate crop yield causing a serious concern for food. Desertification is linked with loss of agricultural habitats. The loss of agricultural lands, forest cover is an outcome of globalisation of industrial production processes based on non-renewable resources based resources. Climate change is an outcome of the globalisation of non-renewable resource based urban habitats. Drought is, among other factors, responsible for soil degradation. It has been also established that desertification increases the effect of green house gas emissions. There is thus a relation of cause and effect between climatic change and desertification.
The focus of the youth position paper on drought and desertification therefore is on the following:
1. Assessment of responses to climate change are being made,
2. assessments of the instruments for mitigating the impacts of climates,
3. hurdles faced in the implementation of the Kyoto protocol emission targets
4. Constraints in the development strategy and proposal for ecologically sustainable development strategy
5. Call for adoption of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance framework for ecologically sustainability and socially equity
6. Innovative faith based strategies
7. Youth Strategies
Change in the climate with rise in temperature of earth, change in rainfall patterns is caused due to emission of green house gases that raise the temperature of earth as the amount of green house gases generated is much more than the capacity of the green cover for absorbing. Impacts of the climate change are being felt everywhere beyond the national boundaries. There are several recorded evidences that has caused nations to take on the challenge of global warming .UN’s intergovernmental panel on climate change has been meeting and deliberating on the issue. There are several national responses and international agreements. Recently China and U.S. has expressed agreement to work on climate change. Speaking on occasion of APEC summit in Sydney, Australia Mr. Hu Jintao maintained that “the United Nations Framework convention should remain the main channel for the international efforts” to address climate change” .
The Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which emphasised the far-reaching consequences that continued global warming would have across the world, has given fresh impetus to finding solution to the problem. The summit meeting of the Group of Eight industrialised countries (G8) held in Germany in the month of June 2007 agreed to launch new initiatives for collective action by both rich nations and fast-growing developing countries to combat climate change. In its Fourth Assessment Report, the IPCC, the international body that has the task of weighing scientific evidence on climate change, pointed to definitive evidence that global atmospheric concentration of key greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide had “increased markedly as a result of human activities since 1750”. These gases were trapping the Earth’s heat that would otherwise have radiated out into space. If the build-up of greenhouse gases and the resultant warming of the planet were allowed to continue unchecked, the humanity collectively will have to face several consequences. Droughts and desertification are among the impacts of climate change. The position paper is focusing on the challenges and offers solutions for halting the impacts of climate change through adoption of measures including the faith based personal responses for transformation of ecologically hostile consumption, production and leisure use patterns.
Progress so far
Lots of seminars and conferences have been organized for addressing the global challenge. There are Kyoto protocol emission targets for which national strategies have been devised. Kyoto Protocol formally known as UN Framework Conventions on Climate Change has not been ratified by some of the important nations. U.S. and Australia are not ratifying the protocol as they have perceptions of competitive disadvantage. There are agreements for reducing the emissions by the year 2020 and 2050. There exists a vibrant mobilization of civil society and mobilization of youth groups. Several groups are working for the policy advocacy for implementing the binding targets for the emission of green house gases. There also exists a dynamic policy advocacy for R&D in renewable energy so that there is plenty of renewable resource based energy for replacing the non-renewable energy. Green parties existing in more than 88 countries are calling for replacement for greenhouse generating fossil fuel based energy sources with renewable energy.
UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has been awarded Nobel Prize along with Robert Al Gore for working on the climate change. The Norwegian Nobel Committee cited the recipients “for their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man made climate change and to lay foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such a change” . Mr .Al Gore responded to the citation saying “we face a truly planetary emergency: the climate change is not a political issue, it is a moral and spiritual challenge to all humanity” . Mr.R.K. Pachaury sharing the prize with Robert Al Gore as Chairman of Intergovernmental Panel on climate change responded that the Nobel Peace prize would add sense of urgency to the fight against global warming. IPCC, set up in 1988, is tasked with giving policymakers a summary of the latest knowledge about climate change. Gavin Edwards head of Climate and Energy Campaign, Greenpeace International talking about what the governments across the world can do to mitigate the problem pointed out the need to reconsider terms of protocol that acknowledges the differentiated responsibility for the various nations responding to the climate change. He points out the need for the developing countries to do all the needful and not repeat the mistakes of the developed countries - “nongovernmental organisations have really focussed on the industrialised nations that have to do lion’s share of tackling the climate change-that’s clear. But what is also clear is that developing countries like India and China constantly continue developing with the business as usual old style development approach. They could be repeating the same mistakes the West has made in the last few decades .And, if India, China and other countries continue to make those mistakes, then regardless of what the West is doing to tackle the climate change it will be impossible” .
The instruments advocated for mitigating the climate change
Energy efficient technologies are being developed for minimizing the consumption of the energy. CFL lamps are being promoted as part of energy efficient utilities and equipments for contributing in the reduction of green house gas emissions. There also goals for replacement of non-renewable energy throng renewable energy .Green party in Germany seek full scale replacement of non-renewable energy by renewable energy by the year 2020. There are treaties that have been signed though they are not religiously followed. More funding is being sought for research for globalizing renewable energy based services and utilities. Binding targets on emission reduction is not there as is evident from the aspirational recommendation of the APEC summit concluded recently in Sydney as part of the processes for the UN framework convention on climate change to be held in Bali in the month of December 2007. There are plans of Action devoid of binding policies and target for the emission of green house gases.
If the build-up of greenhouse gases and the resultant warming of the planet was allowed to continue unchecked, we will collectively have consequences in terms of the loss of the ecologically sustainable livelihoods, habitats, crop failures, inequitable distribution of the ecologically safe habitats across the world. It is well-known that global economic boom is accelerating green house gas emissions with the ever expanding non-renewable energy based urban habitats, consumption, production and transport patterns.
Problems in the strategies
There are strategies that have been identified with global recognition of the need to reduce green house emissions. Even so, they get defeated as goals are set with contradicting outcomes and visions .For example, GDP calculation does not consider the impact on environment and ecological costs and thus are not therefore factors in the calculation of Gross Domestic Product. Enormous costs on environments are ignored following the conviction that all the resources are for the use and their non-utilisation is an indicator of low technological development. An ecologically sustainable habitat is not considered valuable with ecologically sustainable livelihoods. Quarterly reporting on the increase in the GDP does not factor the increase in green house gas emissions. 7th Generation Initiative in Canada with wellbeing measurement Act in an initiative for factoring the ecological costs and cost of women's work at home
www.sustainwellbeing.net . They believe that calculation of gross domestic product must include the cost on the environment that our actions in the present have
www.sustainwellbeing.net. Mike Nickerson and Joe Jordon have been campaigning for years.
Political parties continue to be inspired by short term visions and it is not quite their fault. SIMPOL is working with the voters globally for influencing the simultaneous adoption of policies. There is need to ensure more and more simultaneous actions globally for peaceful actions, decisions, choices that will contribute in collective ecological safety. Political parties need to be educated for supporting the policies that ensure protection of ecologically sustainable livelihoods and habitats. Labour League Foundation ,Sufi Trust and CEASIG as part of National Forum of Forest Workers and Forest People supporting the rights of land in their traditional habitats through deleting the impact of colonial legislations that deprived them their rights to homestead and agriculture lands. Green parties are concerned about the ecologically safe issues but their voters are few .Most of the political parties are concerned with issues that are more appealing to the elite and the middle class in the immediate present.
Another major hurdle experienced in the way of getting global responses for mitigating the climate change is continued marketing of fossil fuel intensive consumption patterns, urban habitats designs, development paradigm, competitive nationalisms for seeking the markers of fossil fuel intensive lifestyles, devaluation of the ecologically sustainable agriculture consumption patterns. There exists continued political support for cultural products and processes that are inimical to national and global ecological safety. While there are measures for ecological impact/ environment impact assessments but then there markedly exists absence of concerns for addressing the root causes of ecological and man made disasters. Marginalisation of the faith based youth groups by the atheistic intelligentsia continues to be problem that needs to be addressed .They need to be brought on board .
Ecologically safe national strategy/ development paradigm
Considering the above, it is proposed that an ecologically safe national strategy/ development paradigm contains the following features:
1. Marketing of ecologically safe consumption ,production, leisure use patterns
2. Discouraging ecologically hostile consumption and production patterns
3. Promotion of neighbourhood trade and education and discouraging ecologically hostile trade and education
4. Ecologically sustainable agriculture
5. Promotion of ecologically sustainable transport Systems
6. Faith based measures for transformation of leisure use pattern
7. Promotion and protection of ecologically sustainable habitats
8. ecologically safe interest free and debt free finance system
9. Ecologically safe models of success
Towards a solution
Reduction in the emission of green house gases through promoting measures and decision patterns that moderate the consumption of services and utilities based on the consumption of green house emitting fossil fuels is critical that all concerned with safeguarding the humanity from the negative impacts of climate change, minimising the incidence of drought and halting the expansion of deserts and preventing the loss of ecologically sustainable habitats and livelihoods. Considering the emergencies, it is argued that adoption of faith based measures for transforming leisure use patterns is considered on priority. Following diagram demonstrates the impact and relations that adoption of prayer and meditation 5 times a day on the consumption patterns.
Men and women following the commands for prayer and meditation 5 times a day are not likely to indulge in consumption of lots of evening post work engagements that require long distance travels as this would interfere in observance of the command for prayer /salah /meditation /yoga at the appointed hours. It can be easily seen that adoption of this command will ensure transformation of lots of consumption of fossil fuel intensive leisure such as going to bar and dancing halls. This can be adopted along with several other personal and community responses for reducing the emission of green houses. Faith based responses appear to be more effective and they need to be promoted as for this there is no need to make additional efforts. Association of ‘conservatism’ appears to be more one of the response that some men and women may have for communication of faith based measures. But then it is important to see the importance of the adoption of faith based measure for ecological efficacy, safety, suitability, desirability and validity. Faith based responses are common and they just need to be promoted for their contribution in the ecological wellbeing at the personal, community, social, national and global levels. There is an urgent need for the same.
Personal faith based responses
Prayer 5 times a day for transforming leisure use pattern recognising that leisure use patterns are one of the key social engagements that consume most of the fossil fuel based services and utilities .Command for prayer is common across the religious texts though it appears most prominently practiced by men and women following the communications of Muhammad, believed to be the last messenger by Muslims (men and women submitting to the will of God/Allah/../.
How adoption of prayer transform the consumption patterns and ecologically hostile travel intensive leisure use patterns
Men and women practicing prayer (salah in Arabic) do not visit dancing halls and bars as they are more concerned about praying in time. Prayer in the morning, afternoon, after sunset and then prayer after dinner in the homes/ mosques/ churches/synagogue/ prayer and meditation halls/work place makes them bound to focus on the necessary work only. Prayer and remembrance for them is a mean of relaxation, stress busting, socialization, and communion and so on. S/he concentrates on the essential matters in the neighbourhood and cares for them as commanded through the messengers. Secondly, they abstain from exhibitionist consumption following the command of God/ Allah for not transgressing the bounds/limits set by God/Allah. For dressing they believe that the best dress is that of piety determined by the extent to which they follow the commands of God/ Allah. They abstain from adultery following the commands against the same as they believe in upholding the best standards of piety. They seek forgiveness from God/Allah for the sinful deeds executed intentionally or unintentionally. Thus adoption of prayer 5 times a day works as a guard for all the behaviours that have been prohibited in the holy books across the religions.
They donate out of the sustenance for poor following the commands for donation/zakat, khairat, fitra and sadaqah/daan.. They do not waste and thus observe the best of the ideals communicated through the slogan of ‘waste not, want not’. They indulge in ecologically safe consumption and believe in moderation in all matters. The middle path communicated through the commands of God/Allah is best ensured through the adoption of compulsory prayers 5 times a day. Youth, Men and men following the commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru for remembrance of Ishwar are likely to have the similar best behaviour patterns that are ecologically safe. Their average ecological footprints are likely to be very low. This needs to be established with communication of more ecological audits/ water audits/green audits/ energy audits/ paper audits/ food intake audits- a series of audits that youth, men and women following the command of God/Allah perform or they are supposed to perform. They ensure more and more pious behaviour, consumption and production patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations call for generation of more pious responses as they are directly linked to reduction in the emission of green house gases .
Inter faith commons
The inter faith commons need to be communicated and disseminated for not only global integration but also for addressing the critical ecological challenge that we as part of humanity face . Global warming is no longer a concern of a particular nations but it is an issue that we all as part of humanity face. Inter faith commons bring to the fore the understanding that we have common monotheistic content and messengers who upheld the best standards of justice, communication, and struggle in their life time and fought men and women after utilizing the best means of persuasion. Shiv Sankalp Taru has a very interesting verse that needs to be brought in light for men and women who have special affinity for the Sanskrit textual tradition. The timings are very much common to the timing followed by the Muslims. It is a command that needs to be followed by all. Muslim youths, men and women already follow that following the communication of God/BRAHMM communicated through the last messenger while believing that commands were communicated through all the messengers earlier in various languages and lands. The commands followed by Muslims are the commands that were communicated through the earlier messengers were sent to all the lands to people who spoke various languages following the related verse in the holy Qur’an. Commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru “Ishwar smarate panch awasare” calls for remembrance of Ishwar who was neither born nor gave on five occasions in a day, every day-all the 365/366 days of the year.
Command for establishing prayer at the appointed hours exists in the Holy Qur’an. According to one count there are command for establishing salah and give zakat more that 54 times in the holy Qur’an. There are commands in Bible and Torah. Buddhist monotheistic tradition calls for fighting the ‘mara’ in the Dhammapada and the atheistic understanding calls for adoption of middle path in all the matters. Practice of meditation leads to transformation of consumption patterns. Gurus in the Sikhism and Jain traditions are examples of austere life filled with prayer and penance. Guru Nanak was a practitioner of prayer and remembrance and he is revered for that and followed by millions of Sikhs around the world. For Sikhs, it is not impossible to follow the best practices of Guru Nanak who established himself as a role model for millions of Sikhs around the world. Following table shows the interfaith commons that can be adopted by all. This is being proposed considering the absence of coherent strategy in the atheistic post-modern discourse and contingencies of the global emergencies that must be addressed.

How an ecologically sustainable / contended reverent economy is built up with happiness for all
Ecological economists are currently debating issues with the Washington consensus economist and fighting the TINA (there is no alternative) syndrome .Noam Chomsky believes in the alternative economic order and so do youths of the world who through their calls are wanting to see the change and taking up non-violent advocacy and communication for the needful change . He also believes in the alternative political and cultural order .Binary economists are calling for abolition of interest charged on the loans as they believe creation of money from thin air in the books of the bankers is responsible for lots of ecologically hostile and socially inequitable practices in consumption, production and distribution and leisure use patterns
www.binaryeconomics.org .
Elimination of usury, fiat money propelling the ecologically hostile growth of urban habitats is being pointed out to be a critical factor in building a socially inclusive and ecologically safe economy. Similarly, debt free credit /interest free loans are being promoted for zero debt distressed suicides and bankruptcies.
Another major feature of contented and ecological sustainable economy is its capacity and intent for the protection of ecologically sustainable habitats with renewable resource based life support systems. It is simply impossible to envisage sustainability of non-renewable based transport systems in perpetuity. Search for nuclear energy and intense research activity in the renewable resource based energy is a proof for this. It needs to be noted that while nuclear energy in the short run appears to be carbon neutral, but in the long run, this is also not sustainable as there are limited resources for running the reactors. It is clear that resources such as uranium and thorium are not for all the time in the future. Therefore, the only solution is to decelerate and regulate the consumption of non-renewable resource based services and utilities through instituting an ecologically sustainable economy with the following features:
1.Debt free money and interest free loans with public control on the creation of money
2.Rights to renewable resource based habitats
3.Ecologically sustainable leisure use patterns
4.Distributive justice for renewable resource based livelihoods
5.Freedom from worried of energy crisis
6.Protection of Renewable resource based livelihoods
Freedom from worries of energy crisis affecting energy intensive transportation systems and habitats is an essential constituent of an ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy .At present most of the planners are concerned with the increasing energy requirements and for this some countries are ready to sacrifice their ideals and foundations of foreign policy. Left parties in India along with other parties have been vociferously opposing the loss of independence in the foreign policy of India. It is important to ensure sustainability for the renewable resource based life support systems and for this it is important to halt the loss of ecologically sustainable habitats and agricultural production methodologies. It is not possible to ensure sustainability for habitat designs that are based on unsustainable energy sources. Therefore, it is not possible to ensure sustainability for skyscraper laden urban habitats. Urban areas with energy intensive shopping malls need to be brought within ecologically sustainable limits. For this to happen, it is important to support adoption of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance framework.
Youths as drivers of change processes and communication for transition to ecologically safe life support systems locally and globally
Creating debt free money and ensuring interest free loans in not quite easy as that requires change of hearts and minds of men and women governing the various institutions who find the proposals difficult. Success of the proposals for ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy and polity requires multiplication of men and women who uphold the criterion of piety. It is important that the pious men and women across the world prohibiting peacefully what is wrong and prescribing what is right take charge of the governance and ensure that debt free money is created, faith based measures are adopted for mitigating the impacts of climate change. It is important to understand the need to prepare for life after death as that would impel men and women to adopt faith based measures more and more. Now, the signs of ecological distress are too compelling to avoid collective and personal actions for both mitigating and halting the impacts of climate change. Signs of ecological distress affecting the lives of billions call for taking corrective action locally and globally. Youths and corporations who are market for non-renewable energy intensive services and utilities need to be in charge. Atheistic postmodernist laissez faire regimen of cultural, political and moral governance needs to be critically reviewed as they damage the survival interests of the billions in here and now and that of future generations.
Hurdles in the way/ constraints
There are hurdles in the way for such a massive change taking place simultaneously and globally and most pernicious among the faith based notions are that of neo-liberal atheistic ideology where market and profit devoid of the concerns of eternal interests of mankind are permitted to have full freedom. It is dominance of atheistic neo-liberal ideology that prevents men and women from adopting the faith based pious measures for addressing the global and local challenges. Media channels such as MTV with adoring participation of youths indoctrinated in the atheistic visions of good life are busy in creating models of copy cat consumption and leisure use patterns globally with local vernacular channels following in line. Starting with English music content in 90’s now MTV has more of Hindi songs and dance forms with direct message for youths for copying the ecologically leisure use pattern including partying ,dancing and drinking of intoxicating drinks.
The second hurdle is the lack on coherent national and international policy with respect to addressing the climate change. While Kyoto protocol emission target call for reduction in the emission of green house gases, national development strategies continue to be inspired by the perception of competitive disadvantage. It is dangerous to have such incoherence for long time as the assessments of climate scientists are too compelling. Speaking on the occasion of a meeting to the launch the full report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on the impacts of global warming, Professor Martin Parry, a climate scientist with MET office in UK and co-chairman of the working group for the report said, “We are all used to talking about the impact of these changes coming in the lifetime of our children and grand children. Now we know that it is us.” He added that politicians had wasted a decade in focussing on ways to cut emissions, and had woken up recently to the need to adapt. He felt that “mitigation has got all the attention, but we cannot mitigate out of this problem. We have now a choice between a damaged world and a severely damaged world”. (The Hindu 20 September 2007)
The hurdle can be seen through assessing the levels of convergence for the various agencies and their functioning. While there are calls for higher rates of growth, they are not assessed in the light of the demands of ecological sustainability. Even the promotion of indexes such as “sustainability index” is not getting the required attention and it has been left to the discretion of the nations. There are evidences of lack of interagency cooperation and United National Development Programme (UNDP) appears to be working against the mandate of United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Environment assessments /ministries are slighted for benefiting ecologically hostile proposals/ policies. More often than not considerations of ecological sustainability are ignored for sanctioning ecologically hostile projects. This is evident from the sanction of Special Economic Zones despite the violent and non-violent resistance of farmers in India as they did not want to give up on their only source of ecologically sustainable livelihoods through farming. Committee for Campaign on National Himalayan Policy for the ecologically fragile Himalayan region in India has been calling for redefinition of development policy.
Therefore there is a need to institute a governance framework that is both ecologically safe and socially inclusive with reference to poor, old, children and women, ethnic and religious groups residing both in rural and urban habitats.
Labour League Foundation along with several youth led organisations considers the need for establishing ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance with the following features:
1.A governance that is cognizant of the needs of poor, rights of farmers and villages to ecologically sustainable livelihoods and habitats
2.Governance that eliminates fictitious inflationary money and usurious loans created from thin air and responsible for expansion of ecologically hostile habitats
3. Governance that promotes pious and ecologically safe consumption and production pattern
4.A government that plans for ecologically safe disaster free future for all
5.Governance that ensure ecologically safe distribution of natural resources
6.Governance that works for the interests of all
7.Governance that ensures policy making for the rights of children, future generations and poor
.
Diagram-4
Represents the key features of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance
Youth strategies
1.Multiplication of carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) across the cities and villages
These discussions initiated by youth and community elders in the neighbourhood where they gather for collective prayer, discussions and other social engagements. The recommendations of the discussions and simultaneous action compiled at various levels will be presented in the form of a memorandum to the local and world leader gathered in various summits and events accelerating the generation of ecologically safe survival and development policies and multiplication of ecologically safe survival policies. Local impacts will be generated through transformation of the leisure use pattern, consumption pattern, production systems ensuring minimisation of emission of green house gases and galvanising mass communication strategies for reduction in the personal contribution to the green house gases. The discussions on the urgency of reducing green house gases lead to the transformation of personal level consumption patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance (CEASIG), a Delhi based organisation believes that personal responses are critical for transformation of the consumption patterns. Unsustainable consumption patterns can be halted with the personal responses. Personal responses are always part of the global responses. Carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) will multiply ecologically safe responses across the urban and rural areas.
2.Multiplication of ecologically safe responses through promotion of green journalism
Production of analytical and advisory outputs through journalists is critical and they are one of the major stakeholders in shaping the opinions, consumption patterns. Journalists writing on lifestyle can substantially influence the consumption pattern of people in the urban areas. They can help in shaping the tastes and defining the choices. Journalists are important is generating democratic consensus for halting unsustainable consumption patterns. In our times, journalists play a very critical and sometimes they are responsible for defining the social, cultural and political trends. Youth organisations call for securing the future of villages, children and future generations with ecologically sustainable habitats, consumption patterns while ensuring inter-species justice.
3.Catalysing green politics
Labour league Foundation and Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations globally will be supporting the process for open and transparent politics for instilling the importance of ecologically safe green ideals. Youth organisations will be organising meetings with the representatives of the various media organisations and political parties and seek inclusion of ecological considerations in editorial policies and election manifestoes. Media organisations need to be visionary organisations and help in the preparation for an emerging future bereft of petro-modern consumption, transport, habitat and production systems.
4.Transformation of leisure use patterns
Youth organisations and youth wish to realise the millennium development goals for eliminating the unsustainable consumption patterns and wish to do so through suggesting transformation of the leisure use pattern. Suggestions for adoption of faith based measures that are common across the religious texts need to be taken seriously as part of global cultural commons. As indicated through the diagrammatic representation of the impact of adoption of faith based measures, youths call for generating interfaith consensus for acting simultaneously for transforming the leisure use patterns.
5.Calculation of ecological footprints, eliminating ecological rucksacks, returning to the ecologically sustainable habitats of the past for securing the ecological safe future of children and future generations
Youth call for dissemination of the practice of measuring ecological footprints for getting the desired actions for reducing the number of decisions involving emission of green house gases. Similarly, awareness on the loss of rocks due to excessive mining is critical for eliminating the amount of ecological losses. It is critical to value the conventional housing designs that use mud, grass, bamboo and wood. The definition of poverty considering the possession of adobe dwellings as a sign of poverty needs to be revised.
6.Ecological Audit of the consumption processes and patterns
The ecological audit is a concept proposed by Dr.Muhammad Mukhtar Alam, the chairman of Labour League Foundation
http://muhammad_mukhtar_alam.tigblog.org .This needs to be used along with the calculation of ecological footprints, environment audit/ green audit for assessing the impact of various decision and consumption patterns. Globalisation of the ecological audit at all levels is needed for supporting ecologically sustainable consumption patterns. This is important for realising the millennium development goals for environment sustainability by the year 2015. It is proposed that reports on sustainability index are incorporated in the formulation of the ecologically safe development policy.
7.Ecological Audit of the production systems / patterns
Production processes need to be assessed for ecological sustainability. There are ecologically sustainable and unsustainable production processes. The workshops with corporations interested in realising the millennium development goals will be conducted for getting in the changes in production processes. Youths believe based on the predictions on the oil reserves that Petro-modern production systems do not have a long future. Reducing energy demand for ecologically unsustainable production, consumption patterns is critical for halting the expansion of deserts and regularisation of rainfalls.
8.Ecological Audit of the transport systems / patterns
Renewable resource based transport systems are sustainable and non-renewable resource based transport systems are not sustainable. Ecological Audit of the transport systems needs to be encouraged for all organisations and ministries dealing with transport. Minimising / Eliminating travel is critical for ecologically sustainable habitats. We need to prepare for the end of petro-modern age.
9.Ecological Audit of the leisure use patterns-
There are leisure use patterns that do not use green house gas producing fossil fuels and there are leisure use patterns that are based on renewable resources and that does not involve consumption of fossil fuels. Workshop with the neighbourhood discussion leaders and resident welfare associations needs to be conducted for necessary transformation of leisure use patterns. Children, youths and elders need to be encouraged to adopt faith based measures for relaxation and stress busting. There are several studies that have demonstrated the impact of prayer and meditation on stress levels. Ecological audit of the leisure engagements need to be supported for getting the desired response for reduction in the emission of green house gases through transformation of leisure use patterns.
10.Interfaith dialogue for addressing the climate change, farmer’s suicides, and social security for workers in unorganized sector and transforming finance sector
Appreciation of the common commands for prayer, donation, compassion, charity and prohibition of usury, adultery, and homosexuality is needed with wider dissemination of the same. Adoption of these commands addresses the challenge of climate change, ecologically hostile usurious system, AIDS and so on. Inter-faith dialogue will ensure generation of responses across the faith groups. Delhi has a vibrant culture of interfaith dialogue. Sant Rajinder Singh of Sawan Kripal Ashram has been conducting the same for many years. Youth organisation need to work independently or in collaboration with faith based organisations for generating more forums of interfaith dialogue.
11.National/ regional/ city/ village based conventions on Inter Faith common responses for addressing the climate change-
Governments need to be encouraged for holding national conventions for generating consensus for adoption of faith based measures for addressing the climate change. There are cultural responses for fighting the atheistic neo-liberal cultural trends emanating from Europe and copied by youth in the name of globalisation and modernity. National Convention will address the issue of climate change through adopting the interfaith commons while preserving religious diversity and ecologically sustainable dietary, sartorial, linguistic diversities.
12.Carbon neutral Youth colloquiums / meetings / Majlis-e-Naujawan/ Yuva Harit Bharat Sabha/../../
Youths propose globalisation of local efforts for contributing in the mitigation of the impacts of climate change. Governments recognise the critical role of youths as more and more organisations led by youths are involved in consultation. It is suggested that Green youth forums with vernacular names need to be formed and discussions be held with active government support for getting the desired response pattern for halting the expansion of unsustainable consumption pattern and leisure use pattern through adoption of faith based measures.
Conclusion:
Imagining the responses of the weaker species in the face of man made onslaughts on the non-renewable resources , many youths across the world recognise the threats represented through the expression of anguish of the billions of poor who are angry, dispossessed and seeking an end to the process of non-renewable resource based usurious finance fuelled expansion of consumption and production pattern that is causing serious loss of livelihood for millions across the Earth and call upon all the governments, civil society organisations, corporations engaged in ecologically hostile production processes to boycott the ecologically hostile usurious finance and prevent further loss of ecologically sustainable habitats that are an immediate outcome of the expansion of ecologically hostile non-renewable resource based habitats. Nations need to compete in establishing the models of ecologically safe economy, polity and culture. Youth of the world are ready to become a leader along with Muslims, Greens and men and women of the world who wish to halt the political expansion of the atheistic neo-liberal ideology that is responsible for exacerbating the ecological distress demonstrated through the increased incidence of drought and expansion of deserts causing suffering for millions. Adaptation is the weakest response and youths call for halting the negative impacts of climate change. Nothing is impossible.

Les sécheresses et la désertification comme impact des sécheresses de changement
de climat ont été une cause de souci dans toute la partie du monde pendant des siècles. Il y a des références pour la même chose dans les textes saints tels que le Torah saint, la bible et le Qur saint'. Yusuf/Joseph, le plus jeune fils de Yaqoob/Jacob, le messager d'Allah/de Dieu a enregistré pour avoir conseillé le roi de l'Egypte pour se préparer aux années de sécheresse sur la base d'un rêve que le roi a vu et a mentionné à l'ancien prisonnier vivant avec Joseph (la paix soit sur lui). Le roi a agi sur l'interprétation de son rêve fourni par Joseph (la paix soit sur lui) et disposé pendant 7 années de sécheresse. De même, la désertification a été un processus qui a été enregistré en tant qu'un du processus qui a été dessus dans diverses régions de monde. Des sécheresses sont marquées par l'absence de la pluie ou de la pluie insatisfaisante qui est responsable de la perte de récoltes ou de rendement de récolte insatisfaisant causant une préoccupation profonde pour la nourriture. La désertification est liée avec la perte d'habitats agricoles. La perte de régions agricoles, couverture de forêt est des résultats de mondialisation des processus de production industrielle basés sur les ressources basées par ressources non-renouvelables. Le changement de climat est des résultats de la mondialisation des habitats urbains basés par ressource non-renouvelable. La sécheresse est, entre d'autres facteurs, responsables de la dégradation de sol. On l'a également établi que la désertification augmente l'effet des émissions de gaz vertes de maison. Il y a ainsi une relation de cause et d'effet entre le changement et la désertification climatiques.
Le centre du papier de position de la jeunesse sur la sécheresse et la désertification est donc sur ce qui suit :
1. L'évaluation des réponses au changement de climat sont faites,
2. évaluations des instruments pour atténuer les impacts des climats,
3. les obstacles faits face dans l'exécution de l'émission de protocole de Kyoto vise
4. Contraintes dans la stratégie et la proposition de développement pour la stratégie écologiquement soutenable 5
de développement. Réclamez l'adoption du cadre écologiquement sûr et socialement inclus de gouvernement pour écologiquement la durabilité et socialement les capitaux propres
6. La foi innovatrice a basé les stratégies
7. Stratégies de la jeunesse
Changez dans le climat avec l'élévation de la température de la terre, changement des modèles de précipitations est causé en raison de l'émission des gaz verts de maison qui soulèvent la température de la terre car la quantité de gaz verts de maison produits est beaucoup plus que la capacité de la couverture verte pour absorber. Des impacts du changement de climat sont sentis partout au delà des frontières nationales. Il y a plusieurs évidences enregistrées qui a fait prendre des nations le défi de .UN de chauffage global le panneau qu'intergouvernemental sur le changement de climat a été réunion et délibérer sur la question. Il y a plusieurs réponses nationales et accords internationaux. Récemment la Chine et les États-Unis a exprimé l'accord de travailler au changement de climat. Parlant occasionnellement du sommet d'APEC à Sydney, M. de l'Australie. Hu Jintao a maintenu que « la convention-cadre des Nations Unies devrait demeurer le canal principal pour les efforts internationaux » d'adresser le changement de climat ».
Le quatrième rapport d'évaluation du panneau intergouvernemental sur le changement de climat (IPCC), qui a souligné les conséquences de grande envergure qui ont continué le chauffage global auraient à travers le monde, a donné la nouvelle impulsion à trouver la solution au problème. La réunion au sommet du groupe de huit a industrialisé des pays (G8) tenus en Allemagne en mois du juin 2007 accepte de lancer de nouvelles initiatives pour l'action collective par des nations riches et des pays en voie de développement à croissance rapide pour combattre le changement de climat. Dans son quatrième rapport d'évaluation, l'IPCC, le corps international qui a le charger de peser l'évidence scientifique sur le changement de climat, dirigé à l'évidence définitive que la concentration atmosphérique globale de la serre chaude principale intoxique comme l'anhydride carbonique « avait augmenté nettement en raison des activités humaines depuis 1750 ». Ces gaz emprisonnaient la chaleur de la terre qui aurait autrement rayonné dehors dans l'espace. Si on permettait à l'l'habillage des gaz de serre chaude et le chauffage résultant de la planète de continuer non réprimé, l'humanité collectivement devra faire face à plusieurs conséquences. Les sécheresses et la désertification sont parmi les impacts du changement de climat. Le papier de position se concentre sur les défis et offre des solutions pour stopper les impacts du changement de climat par l'adoption des mesures comprenant les réponses personnelles basées par foi pour la transformation des modèles écologiquement hostiles d'utilisation de consommation, de production et de loisirs.
De progrès un bon nombre
jusqu'ici de conférences et de conférences ont été organisés pour adresser le défi global. Il y a des cibles d'émission de protocole de Kyoto pour lesquelles des stratégies nationales ont été conçues. Le protocole de Kyoto formellement connu sous le nom de conventions-cadres de l'ONU sur le changement de climat n'a pas été ratifié par certaines des nations importantes. LES États-Unis et l'Australie ne ratifient pas le protocole car ils ont des perceptions de disparité de concurrence. Il y a des accords pour réduire les émissions par l'année 2020 et 2050. Là existe une mobilisation vibrante de la société civile et mobilisation des groupes de la jeunesse. Plusieurs groupes travaillent pour la recommandation de politique pour mettre en application les cibles obligatoires pour l'émission des gaz verts de maison. Là existe également une recommandation dynamique de politique pour la R&D dans l'énergie renouvelable de sorte qu'il y ait d'abondance d'énergie basée de ressource renouvelable pour remplacer l'énergie non-renouvelable. Les parties vertes existant dans plus de 88 pays réclament le remplacement pour la serre chaude produisant des sources d'énergie basées de combustible fossile avec de l'énergie renouvelable.
Le panneau intergouvernemental de l'ONU sur le changement de climat a été attribué le prix Nobel avec Robert Al Gore pour travailler au changement de climat. Le Comité Nobel de Norvégien a cité les destinataires « pour que leurs efforts accumulent et de disséminent la plus grande connaissance au sujet du changement synthétique de climat et de créer des bases pour les mesures qui sont nécessaires pour contrecarrer un tel changement ». M. Al Gore a répondu à la citation disant que « nous faisons face à une urgence véritablement planétaire : le changement de climat n'est pas une question politique, c'est un défi moral et spirituel à toute l'humanité ». Mr.R.K. Pachaury partageant le prix avec Robert Al Gore pendant que le Président du panneau intergouvernemental sur le changement de climat répondait que le prix de paix Nobel ajouterait le sens de l'urgence au combat contre le chauffage global. IPCC, établi en 1988, est chargé avec donner à des décisionnaires un résumé de la dernière connaissance au sujet du changement de climat. Le chef de Gavin Edwards du climat et l'énergie font campagne, Greenpeace international parlant de ce que les gouvernements à travers le monde peuvent faire pour atténuer le problème ont précisé la nécessité de reconsidérer des limites du protocole qui reconnaît la responsabilité différenciée des diverses nations répondant au changement de climat. Il précise le besoin des pays en voie de développement de faire tout nécessaire et de ne pas répéter les erreurs des pays développés - « les organisations nonnes gouvernemental se sont vraiment concentrées sur les nations industrialisées qui doivent faire la part du lion d'aborder le climat changer-quest clair. Mais ce qui est également clair est celui les pays en voie de développement comme l'Inde et la Chine continuent constamment de se développer avec les affaires en tant que vieille approche habituelle de développement de modèle. Ils pourraient répéter les mêmes erreurs que l'ouest a faites dans les dernières décennies. Et, si l'Inde, la Chine et d'autres pays continuent à faire ces erreurs, puis indépendamment ce qui l'ouest fait pour aborder le changement de climat de lui soyez impossible ».
Les instruments préconisés pour atténuer les technologies de rendement optimum
de changement de climat sont développés pour réduire au minimum la consommation de l'énergie. Des lampes de CFL sont favorisées en tant qu'élément des utilités de rendement optimum et des équipements pour contribuer dans la réduction d'émissions de gaz vertes de maison. Là également les buts pour le remplacement de l'énergie non-renouvelable remplissent l'énergie renouvelable. Partie verte en remplacement complet de recherche de l'Allemagne d'énergie non-renouvelable par énergie renouvelable par l'année 2020. Il y a des traités qui ont été signé cependant eux ne sont pas religieusement suivis. Plus de placement est cherché pour la recherche pour généraliser des services basés et des utilités d'énergie renouvelable. Les cibles obligatoires sur la réduction d'émission n'est pas là de même qu'évident de la recommandation d'aspirational du sommet d'APEC conclu récemment à Sydney en tant qu'élément des processus pour la convention-cadre de l'ONU sur le changement de climat à tenir dans Bali en mois du décembre 2007. Il y a des plans d'action exempts de politiques et de cible obligatoires pour l'émission des gaz verts de maison.
Si on permettait à l'l'habillage des gaz de serre chaude et du chauffage résultant de la planète de continuer non réprimé, nous aurons collectivement des conséquences en termes de perte des vies écologiquement soutenables, habitats, les échecs de récolte, distribution injuste des habitats écologiquement sûrs à travers le monde. Il est bien connu que la perche économique globale accélère les émissions de gaz vertes de maison avec les modèles basés par énergie non-renouvelable jamais de extension d'habitats urbains, de consommation, de production et de transport.
Les problèmes dans les stratégies
là sont des stratégies qui ont été identifiées avec l'identification globale de la nécessité de réduire les émissions vertes de maison. Néanmoins, ils obtiennent défaits pendant que des objectifs sont fixés avec des résultats et des visions de contradiction. Par exemple, le calcul de PIB ne considère pas l'impact sur l'environnement et les coûts écologiques et n'est pas ainsi donc des facteurs dans le calcul du produit intérieur brut. D'énormes coûts sur des environnements sont ignorés après la conviction que toutes ressources sont pour l'usage et leur non-utilisation est un indicateur du bas développement technologique. Un habitat écologiquement soutenable n'est pas considéré valable avec des vies écologiquement soutenables. Rendre compte trimestriel en augmentation en PIB pas facteur l'augmentation des émissions de gaz vertes de maison. 7ème L'initiative de génération au Canada avec la Loi de mesure de bien-être dans une initiative pour factoriser les coûts écologiques et le coût de femmes travaillent à la maison
www.sustainwellbeing.net. Ils croient que le calcul du produit intérieur brut doit inclure le coût sur l'environnement ce nos actions dans le présent ont
www.sustainwellbeing.net. Mike Nickerson et Joe Jordon avaient fait campagne pendant des années.
Des parties politiques continuent à être inspirées par des visions à court terme et ce n'est pas tout à fait leur défaut. SIMPOL fonctionne avec les électeurs globalement pour influencer l'adoption simultanée des politiques. Il y a le besoin d'assurer de plus en plus des actions simultanées globalement pour des actions paisibles, décisions, les choix qui contribueront dans la sûreté écologique collective. Des parties politiques doivent être instruites pour soutenir les politiques qui assurent la protection des vies écologiquement soutenables et des habitats. La base de travail de ligue, la confiance de Sufi et les CEASIG en tant qu'élément du forum national des ouvriers de forêt et la forêt peuplent soutenir les droites de la terre dans leurs habitats traditionnels en supprimant l'impact des législations coloniales qui les ont privées leurs droites aux terres de ferme et d'agriculture. Des parties vertes sont préoccupées par les questions écologiquement sûres mais leurs électeurs sont peu. La plupart des parties politiques sont concernées par les questions qui sont plus attrayantes à l'élite et à la bourgeoisie dans le présent immédiat.
Un autre obstacle principal expérimenté de la manière d'obtenir des réponses globales pour atténuer le changement de climat est vente continue des modèles intensifs de consommation de combustible fossile, conceptions d'habitats urbains, le paradigme de développement, nationalismes concurrentiels pour chercher les marqueurs des styles de vie intensifs de combustible fossile, dévaluation des modèles écologiquement soutenables de consommation d'agriculture. Là existe soutien politique continu des produits culturels et processus qui sont hostiles à la sûreté écologique nationale et globale. Tandis qu'il y a des mesures pour des évaluations écologiques d'impact d'environnement d'impact mais là existe alors nettement absence des soucis pour adresser les causes de racine des désastres écologiques et synthétiques. La marginalisation des groupes basés par foi de la jeunesse par l'intelligentsia athée continue à être le problème qui doit être adressé. Ils doivent être apportés à bord.
Paradigme national écologiquement sûr de développement de stratégie
considérant ce qui précède, on lui propose qu'un paradigme national écologiquement sûr de développement de stratégie contienne les dispositifs suivants :
1. La vente de la consommation écologiquement sûre, production, utilisation de loisirs a modelé
2. Découragement des modèles écologiquement hostiles 3 de consommation et
de production. Promotion du commerce de voisinage et d'éducation et de décourager le commerce et l'éducation écologiquement hostiles
4. Agriculture écologiquement soutenable
5. Promotion des systèmes écologiquement soutenables 6
de transport. La foi a basé des mesures pour la transformation du modèle 7 d'utilisation
de loisirs. Promotion et protection des habitats écologiquement soutenables
8. système libre écologiquement sûr 9 exempt d'intérêts et de dette
de finances. Les modèles écologiquement sûrs du succès
vers une réduction
de solution de l'émission des gaz verts de maison en favorisant des mesures et des modèles de décision qui modèrent la consommation des services et des utilités basés sur la consommation de la maison verte émettant des combustibles fossiles est critique que tous concernés par sauvegarder l'humanité des impacts négatifs du changement de climat, réduisant au minimum l'incidence de la sécheresse et stoppant l'expansion des déserts et empêchant la perte d'habitats écologiquement soutenables et de vies. Vu les urgences, on lui discute que l'adoption de la foi a basé des mesures pour les modèles de transformation d'utilisation de loisirs est considérée sur la priorité. Le diagramme suivant démontre l'impact et les relations que l'adoption de la prière et de la méditation 5 chronomètre un jour sur les modèles de consommation.
Les hommes et les femmes suivant les commandes pour la prière et la méditation 5 chronomètre un jour ne sont pas susceptibles de se livrer à la consommation d'un bon nombre d'engagements de travail de poteau de soirée qui exigent des voyages de fond car ceci interférerait dans l'observance de la commande pour la prière /salah /meditation /yoga aux heures désignées. Il peut facilement voir que l'adoption de cette commande assurera la transformation d'un bon nombre de consommation des loisirs intensifs de combustible fossile tels qu'aller à la barre et aux halls dansants. Ceci peut être adopté avec plusieurs autres réponses personnelles et de la communauté pour réduire l'émission des maisons vertes. Les réponses basées par foi semblent être plus efficaces et elles doivent être favorisées quant à ceci il n'y a aucun besoin de faire des efforts additionnels. L'association du conservatisme de `' semble être plus un de la réponse que quelques hommes et femmes peuvent prendre pour la communication des mesures basées par foi. Mais alors il est important de voir l'importance de l'adoption de la mesure basée par foi pour l'efficacité, la sûreté, la convenance, les charmes et la validité écologiques. Les réponses basées par foi sont communes et elles doivent juste être favorisées pour leur contribution dans le bien-être écologique aux niveaux personnels, de la communauté, sociaux, nationaux et globaux. Il y a un besoin pressant de même chose.
La foi personnelle a basé la prière
de réponses 5 fois par jour pour le modèle de transformation d'utilisation de loisirs identifiant que les modèles d'utilisation de loisirs sont l'un des engagements sociaux principaux qui consomment la plupart des services basés et des utilités de combustible fossile. La commande pour la prière est commune à travers les textes religieux bien qu'elle semble le plus en évidence pratiquée par les hommes et des femmes suivant les communications de Muhammad, pensés pour être le dernier messager par Muslims (des hommes et des femmes soumettant à la volonté de Dieu/d'Allah. /.
Comment l'adoption de la prière transforment les modèles de consommation et les hommes intensifs et les femmes de modèles d'utilisation de loisirs
de voyage écologiquement hostile commettant la prière (salah en arabe) ne visitent pas les halls et les barres dansants pendant qu'ils davantage sont préoccupés par la prière à temps. La prière le matin, après-midi, après coucher du soleil et puis prière après dîner dans les halls de prière et de méditation des églises de mosquées de maisons/synagogue//lieu de travail les fait bondir au foyer sur le travail nécessaire seulement. La prière et le souvenir pour eux est un moyen de relaxation, d'effort éclatant, de socialisation, et de communion et ainsi de suite. Concentrés de S/he sur les sujets essentiels dans le voisinage et des soins pour eux comme commandé par les messagers. Deuxièmement, ils s'abstiennent de la consommation exhibitionniste suivant la commande de Dieu Allah pour ne pas transgresser l'établi de limites/limites de God/d'Allah. For dressing they believe that the best dress is that of piety determined by the extent to which they follow the commands of God/ Allah. They abstain from adultery following the commands against the same as they believe in upholding the best standards of piety. They seek forgiveness from God/Allah for the sinful deeds executed intentionally or unintentionally. Thus adoption of prayer 5 times a day works as a guard for all the behaviours that have been prohibited in the holy books across the religions.
They donate out of the sustenance for poor following the commands for donation/zakat, khairat, fitra and sadaqah/daan.. They do not waste and thus observe the best of the ideals communicated through the slogan of ‘waste not, want not’. They indulge in ecologically safe consumption and believe in moderation in all matters. The middle path communicated through the commands of God/Allah is best ensured through the adoption of compulsory prayers 5 times a day. Youth, Men and men following the commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru for remembrance of Ishwar are likely to have the similar best behaviour patterns that are ecologically safe. Their average ecological footprints are likely to be very low. This needs to be established with communication of more ecological audits/ water audits/green audits/ energy audits/ paper audits/ food intake audits- a series of audits that youth, men and women following the command of God/Allah perform or they are supposed to perform. They ensure more and more pious behaviour, consumption and production patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations call for generation of more pious responses as they are directly linked to reduction in the emission of green house gases .
Inter faith commons
The inter faith commons need to be communicated and disseminated for not only global integration but also for addressing the critical ecological challenge that we as part of humanity face . Global warming is no longer a concern of a particular nations but it is an issue that we all as part of humanity face. Inter faith commons bring to the fore the understanding that we have common monotheistic content and messengers who upheld the best standards of justice, communication, and struggle in their life time and fought men and women after utilizing the best means of persuasion. Shiv Sankalp Taru has a very interesting verse that needs to be brought in light for men and women who have special affinity for the Sanskrit textual tradition. The timings are very much common to the timing followed by the Muslims. It is a command that needs to be followed by all. Muslim youths, men and women already follow that following the communication of God/BRAHMM communicated through the last messenger while believing that commands were communicated through all the messengers earlier in various languages and lands. The commands followed by Muslims are the commands that were communicated through the earlier messengers were sent to all the lands to people who spoke various languages following the related verse in the holy Qur’an. Commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru “Ishwar smarate panch awasare” calls for remembrance of Ishwar who was neither born nor gave on five occasions in a day, every day-all the 365/366 days of the year.
Command for establishing prayer at the appointed hours exists in the Holy Qur’an. According to one count there are command for establishing salah and give zakat more that 54 times in the holy Qur’an. There are commands in Bible and Torah. Buddhist monotheistic tradition calls for fighting the ‘mara’ in the Dhammapada and the atheistic understanding calls for adoption of middle path in all the matters. Practice of meditation leads to transformation of consumption patterns. Gurus in the Sikhism and Jain traditions are examples of austere life filled with prayer and penance. Guru Nanak was a practitioner of prayer and remembrance and he is revered for that and followed by millions of Sikhs around the world. For Sikhs, it is not impossible to follow the best practices of Guru Nanak who established himself as a role model for millions of Sikhs around the world. Following table shows the interfaith commons that can be adopted by all. This is being proposed considering the absence of coherent strategy in the atheistic post-modern discourse and contingencies of the global emergencies that must be addressed.

How an ecologically sustainable / contended reverent economy is built up with happiness for all
Ecological economists are currently debating issues with the Washington consensus economist and fighting the TINA (there is no alternative) syndrome .Noam Chomsky believes in the alternative economic order and so do youths of the world who through their calls are wanting to see the change and taking up non-violent advocacy and communication for the needful change . He also believes in the alternative political and cultural order .Binary economists are calling for abolition of interest charged on the loans as they believe creation of money from thin air in the books of the bankers is responsible for lots of ecologically hostile and socially inequitable practices in consumption, production and distribution and leisure use patterns
www.binaryeconomics.org .
Elimination of usury, fiat money propelling the ecologically hostile growth of urban habitats is being pointed out to be a critical factor in building a socially inclusive and ecologically safe economy. Similarly, debt free credit /interest free loans are being promoted for zero debt distressed suicides and bankruptcies.
Another major feature of contented and ecological sustainable economy is its capacity and intent for the protection of ecologically sustainable habitats with renewable resource based life support systems. It is simply impossible to envisage sustainability of non-renewable based transport systems in perpetuity. Search for nuclear energy and intense research activity in the renewable resource based energy is a proof for this. It needs to be noted that while nuclear energy in the short run appears to be carbon neutral, but in the long run, this is also not sustainable as there are limited resources for running the reactors. It is clear that resources such as uranium and thorium are not for all the time in the future. Therefore, the only solution is to decelerate and regulate the consumption of non-renewable resource based services and utilities through instituting an ecologically sustainable economy with the following features:
1.Debt free money and interest free loans with public control on the creation of money
2.Rights to renewable resource based habitats
3.Ecologically sustainable leisure use patterns
4.Distributive justice for renewable resource based livelihoods
5.Freedom from worried of energy crisis
6.Protection of Renewable resource based livelihoods
Freedom from worries of energy crisis affecting energy intensive transportation systems and habitats is an essential constituent of an ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy .At present most of the planners are concerned with the increasing energy requirements and for this some countries are ready to sacrifice their ideals and foundations of foreign policy. Left parties in India along with other parties have been vociferously opposing the loss of independence in the foreign policy of India. It is important to ensure sustainability for the renewable resource based life support systems and for this it is important to halt the loss of ecologically sustainable habitats and agricultural production methodologies. It is not possible to ensure sustainability for habitat designs that are based on unsustainable energy sources. Therefore, it is not possible to ensure sustainability for skyscraper laden urban habitats. Urban areas with energy intensive shopping malls need to be brought within ecologically sustainable limits. For this to happen, it is important to support adoption of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance framework.
Youths as drivers of change processes and communication for transition to ecologically safe life support systems locally and globally
Creating debt free money and ensuring interest free loans in not quite easy as that requires change of hearts and minds of men and women governing the various institutions who find the proposals difficult. Success of the proposals for ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy and polity requires multiplication of men and women who uphold the criterion of piety. It is important that the pious men and women across the world prohibiting peacefully what is wrong and prescribing what is right take charge of the governance and ensure that debt free money is created, faith based measures are adopted for mitigating the impacts of climate change. It is important to understand the need to prepare for life after death as that would impel men and women to adopt faith based measures more and more. Now, the signs of ecological distress are too compelling to avoid collective and personal actions for both mitigating and halting the impacts of climate change. Signs of ecological distress affecting the lives of billions call for taking corrective action locally and globally. Youths and corporations who are market for non-renewable energy intensive services and utilities need to be in charge. Atheistic postmodernist laissez faire regimen of cultural, political and moral governance needs to be critically reviewed as they damage the survival interests of the billions in here and now and that of future generations.
Hurdles in the way/ constraints
There are hurdles in the way for such a massive change taking place simultaneously and globally and most pernicious among the faith based notions are that of neo-liberal atheistic ideology where market and profit devoid of the concerns of eternal interests of mankind are permitted to have full freedom. It is dominance of atheistic neo-liberal ideology that prevents men and women from adopting the faith based pious measures for addressing the global and local challenges. Media channels such as MTV with adoring participation of youths indoctrinated in the atheistic visions of good life are busy in creating models of copy cat consumption and leisure use patterns globally with local vernacular channels following in line. Starting with English music content in 90’s now MTV has more of Hindi songs and dance forms with direct message for youths for copying the ecologically leisure use pattern including partying ,dancing and drinking of intoxicating drinks.
The second hurdle is the lack on coherent national and international policy with respect to addressing the climate change. While Kyoto protocol emission target call for reduction in the emission of green house gases, national development strategies continue to be inspired by the perception of competitive disadvantage. It is dangerous to have such incoherence for long time as the assessments of climate scientists are too compelling. Speaking on the occasion of a meeting to the launch the full report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on the impacts of global warming, Professor Martin Parry, a climate scientist with MET office in UK and co-chairman of the working group for the report said, “We are all used to talking about the impact of these changes coming in the lifetime of our children and grand children. Now we know that it is us.” He added that politicians had wasted a decade in focussing on ways to cut emissions, and had woken up recently to the need to adapt. He felt that “mitigation has got all the attention, but we cannot mitigate out of this problem. We have now a choice between a damaged world and a severely damaged world”. (The Hindu 20 September 2007)
The hurdle can be seen through assessing the levels of convergence for the various agencies and their functioning. While there are calls for higher rates of growth, they are not assessed in the light of the demands of ecological sustainability. Even the promotion of indexes such as “sustainability index” is not getting the required attention and it has been left to the discretion of the nations. There are evidences of lack of interagency cooperation and United National Development Programme (UNDP) appears to be working against the mandate of United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Environment assessments /ministries are slighted for benefiting ecologically hostile proposals/ policies. More often than not considerations of ecological sustainability are ignored for sanctioning ecologically hostile projects. This is evident from the sanction of Special Economic Zones despite the violent and non-violent resistance of farmers in India as they did not want to give up on their only source of ecologically sustainable livelihoods through farming. Committee for Campaign on National Himalayan Policy for the ecologically fragile Himalayan region in India has been calling for redefinition of development policy.
Therefore there is a need to institute a governance framework that is both ecologically safe and socially inclusive with reference to poor, old, children and women, ethnic and religious groups residing both in rural and urban habitats.
Labour League Foundation along with several youth led organisations considers the need for establishing ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance with the following features:
1.A governance that is cognizant of the needs of poor, rights of farmers and villages to ecologically sustainable livelihoods and habitats
2.Governance that eliminates fictitious inflationary money and usurious loans created from thin air and responsible for expansion of ecologically hostile habitats
3. Governance that promotes pious and ecologically safe consumption and production pattern
4.A government that plans for ecologically safe disaster free future for all
5.Governance that ensure ecologically safe distribution of natural resources
6.Governance that works for the interests of all
7.Governance that ensures policy making for the rights of children, future generations and poor
.

Represents the key features of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance
Youth strategies
1.Multiplication of carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) across the cities and villages
These discussions initiated by youth and community elders in the neighbourhood where they gather for collective prayer, discussions and other social engagements. The recommendations of the discussions and simultaneous action compiled at various levels will be presented in the form of a memorandum to the local and world leader gathered in various summits and events accelerating the generation of ecologically safe survival and development policies and multiplication of ecologically safe survival policies. Local impacts will be generated through transformation of the leisure use pattern, consumption pattern, production systems ensuring minimisation of emission of green house gases and galvanising mass communication strategies for reduction in the personal contribution to the green house gases. The discussions on the urgency of reducing green house gases lead to the transformation of personal level consumption patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance (CEASIG), a Delhi based organisation believes that personal responses are critical for transformation of the consumption patterns. Unsustainable consumption patterns can be halted with the personal responses. Personal responses are always part of the global responses. Carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) will multiply ecologically safe responses across the urban and rural areas.
2.Multiplication of ecologically safe responses through promotion of green journalism
Production of analytical and advisory outputs through journalists is critical and they are one of the major stakeholders in shaping the opinions, consumption patterns. Journalists writing on lifestyle can substantially influence the consumption pattern of people in the urban areas. They can help in shaping the tastes and defining the choices. Journalists are important is generating democratic consensus for halting unsustainable consumption patterns. In our times, journalists play a very critical and sometimes they are responsible for defining the social, cultural and political trends. Youth organisations call for securing the future of villages, children and future generations with ecologically sustainable habitats, consumption patterns while ensuring inter-species justice.
3.Catalysing green politics
Labour league Foundation and Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations globally will be supporting the process for open and transparent politics for instilling the importance of ecologically safe green ideals. Youth organisations will be organising meetings with the representatives of the various media organisations and political parties and seek inclusion of ecological considerations in editorial policies and election manifestoes. Media organisations need to be visionary organisations and help in the preparation for an emerging future bereft of petro-modern consumption, transport, habitat and production systems.
4.Transformation of leisure use patterns
Youth organisations and youth wish to realise the millennium development goals for eliminating the unsustainable consumption patterns and wish to do so through suggesting transformation of the leisure use pattern. Suggestions for adoption of faith based measures that are common across the religious texts need to be taken seriously as part of global cultural commons. As indicated through the diagrammatic representation of the impact of adoption of faith based measures, youths call for generating interfaith consensus for acting simultaneously for transforming the leisure use patterns.
5.Calculation of ecological footprints, eliminating ecological rucksacks, returning to the ecologically sustainable habitats of the past for securing the ecological safe future of children and future generations
Youth call for dissemination of the practice of measuring ecological footprints for getting the desired actions for reducing the number of decisions involving emission of green house gases. Similarly, awareness on the loss of rocks due to excessive mining is critical for eliminating the amount of ecological losses. It is critical to value the conventional housing designs that use mud, grass, bamboo and wood. The definition of poverty considering the possession of adobe dwellings as a sign of poverty needs to be revised.
6.Ecological Audit of the consumption processes and patterns
The ecological audit is a concept proposed by Dr.Muhammad Mukhtar Alam, the chairman of Labour League Foundation
http://muhammad_mukhtar_alam.tigblog.org .This needs to be used along with the calculation of ecological footprints, environment audit/ green audit for assessing the impact of various decision and consumption patterns. Globalisation of the ecological audit at all levels is needed for supporting ecologically sustainable consumption patterns. This is important for realising the millennium development goals for environment sustainability by the year 2015. It is proposed that reports on sustainability index are incorporated in the formulation of the ecologically safe development policy.
7.Ecological Audit of the production systems / patterns
Production processes need to be assessed for ecological sustainability. There are ecologically sustainable and unsustainable production processes. The workshops with corporations interested in realising the millennium development goals will be conducted for getting in the changes in production processes. Youths believe based on the predictions on the oil reserves that Petro-modern production systems do not have a long future. Reducing energy demand for ecologically unsustainable production, consumption patterns is critical for halting the expansion of deserts and regularisation of rainfalls.
8.Ecological Audit of the transport systems / patterns
Renewable resource based transport systems are sustainable and non-renewable resource based transport systems are not sustainable. Ecological Audit of the transport systems needs to be encouraged for all organisations and ministries dealing with transport. Minimising / Eliminating travel is critical for ecologically sustainable habitats. We need to prepare for the end of petro-modern age.
9.Ecological Audit of the leisure use patterns-
There are leisure use patterns that do not use green house gas producing fossil fuels and there are leisure use patterns that are based on renewable resources and that does not involve consumption of fossil fuels. Workshop with the neighbourhood discussion leaders and resident welfare associations needs to be conducted for necessary transformation of leisure use patterns. Children, youths and elders need to be encouraged to adopt faith based measures for relaxation and stress busting. There are several studies that have demonstrated the impact of prayer and meditation on stress levels. Ecological audit of the leisure engagements need to be supported for getting the desired response for reduction in the emission of green house gases through transformation of leisure use patterns.
10.Interfaith dialogue for addressing the climate change, farmer’s suicides, and social security for workers in unorganized sector and transforming finance sector
Appreciation of the common commands for prayer, donation, compassion, charity and prohibition of usury, adultery, and homosexuality is needed with wider dissemination of the same. Adoption of these commands addresses the challenge of climate change, ecologically hostile usurious system, AIDS and so on. Inter-faith dialogue will ensure generation of responses across the faith groups. Delhi has a vibrant culture of interfaith dialogue. Sant Rajinder Singh of Sawan Kripal Ashram has been conducting the same for many years. Youth organisation need to work independently or in collaboration with faith based organisations for generating more forums of interfaith dialogue.
11.National/ regional/ city/ village based conventions on Inter Faith common responses for addressing the climate change-
Governments need to be encouraged for holding national conventions for generating consensus for adoption of faith based measures for addressing the climate change. There are cultural responses for fighting the atheistic neo-liberal cultural trends emanating from Europe and copied by youth in the name of globalisation and modernity. National Convention will address the issue of climate change through adopting the interfaith commons while preserving religious diversity and ecologically sustainable dietary, sartorial, linguistic diversities.
12.Carbon neutral Youth colloquiums / meetings / Majlis-e-Naujawan/ Yuva Harit Bharat Sabha/../../
Youths propose globalisation of local efforts for contributing in the mitigation of the impacts of climate change. Governments recognise the critical role of youths as more and more organisations led by youths are involved in consultation. It is suggested that Green youth forums with vernacular names need to be formed and discussions be held with active government support for getting the desired response pattern for halting the expansion of unsustainable consumption pattern and leisure use pattern through adoption of faith based measures.
Conclusion:
Imagining the responses of the weaker species in the face of man made onslaughts on the non-renewable resources , many youths across the world recognise the threats represented through the expression of anguish of the billions of poor who are angry, dispossessed and seeking an end to the process of non-renewable resource based usurious finance fuelled expansion of consumption and production pattern that is causing serious loss of livelihood for millions across the Earth and call upon all the governments, civil society organisations, corporations engaged in ecologically hostile production processes to boycott the ecologically hostile usurious finance and prevent further loss of ecologically sustainable habitats that are an immediate outcome of the expansion of ecologically hostile non-renewable resource based habitats. Nations need to compete in establishing the models of ecologically safe economy, polity and culture. Youth of the world are ready to become a leader along with Muslims, Greens and men and women of the world who wish to halt the political expansion of the atheistic neo-liberal ideology that is responsible for exacerbating the ecological distress demonstrated through the increased incidence of drought and expansion of deserts causing suffering for millions. Adaptation is the weakest response and youths call for halting the negative impacts of climate change. Nothing is impossible.

PAPEL de juventudes en la REDUCCIÓN AL MÍNIMO DE LA INCIDENCIA DE LA SEQUÍA Y PARAR LA EXTENSIÓN DE LOS DESIERTOS THROUHG QUE TRATAN EL CAMBIO del CLIMA CERCA TRANSFORMAR PATRONES ECOLÓGICO INSOSTENIBLES DE LA CONSUMICIÓN, DE LA PRODUCCIÓN Y DEL TRANSPO

Las sequías y la desertificación como impacto de las sequías del cambio
del clima han sido una causa de la preocupación en toda la parte del mundo por siglos. Hay referencias para igual en los textos santos tales como el Torah santo, la biblia y el Qur santo'. Yusuf/José, el hijo más joven de Yaqoob/Jacob, el mensajero de Allah/del dios ha registrado para haber aconsejado al rey de Egipto para prepararse por los años de la sequía en base de un sueño que el rey vio y mencionó al preso anterior que vivía con José (la paz esté sobre él). El rey actuaba sobre la interpretación de su sueño proporcionado por José (la paz esté sobre él) y preparado por 7 años de la sequía. Semejantemente, la desertificación ha sido un proceso que se ha registrado como uno del proceso que ha estado encendido en varias partes del mundo. Las sequías son marcadas por la ausencia de la lluvia o de la lluvia inadecuada que es responsable de la pérdida de cosechas o de cosecha inadecuada que causa una preocupación seria por el alimento. La desertificación se liga a la pérdida de habitat agrícolas. La pérdida de regiones agrícolas, cubierta del bosque es un resultado del globalisation de los procesos de producción industrial basados en recursos basados los recursos no renovables. El cambio del clima es un resultado del globalisation de habitat urbanos basados recurso no renovable. La sequía está, entre otros factores, responsables de la degradación del suelo. También se ha establecido que la desertificación aumenta el efecto de las emisiones de gas verdes de la casa. Hay así una relación de la causa y del efecto entre el cambio y la desertificación climáticos.
El foco del documento de la posición de la juventud sobre sequía y la desertificación por lo tanto está en el siguiente:
1. El gravamen de respuestas al cambio del clima se está haciendo,
2. gravámenes de los instrumentos para atenuar los impactos de los climas,
3. los cañizos hechos frente en la puesta en práctica de la emisión del protocolo de Kyoto apuntan
4. Apremios en la estrategia y la oferta del desarrollo para la estrategia ecológico sostenible 5
del desarrollo. Llame para la adopción del marco ecológico seguro y social inclusivo del gobierno para ecológico el sustainability y social la equidad
6. La fe innovadora basó las estrategias
7. Estrategias de la juventud
Cambie en el clima con subida de la temperatura de la tierra, cambio en patrones de la precipitación se causa debido a la emisión de los gases verdes de la casa que levantan la temperatura de la tierra como la cantidad de gases verdes de la casa generados es mucho más que la capacidad de la cubierta verde para absorber. Los impactos del cambio del clima se están sintiendo por todas partes más allá de los límites nacionales. Hay varias evidencias registradas que ha hecho naciones adquirir el desafío de .UN que se calentaba global que el panel intergubernamental en cambio del clima ha sido reunión y el deliberar en la edición. Hay varias respuestas nacionales y acuerdos internacionales. Recientemente China y los E.E.U.U. ha expresado el acuerdo de trabajar en cambio del clima. Hablando en la ocasión de la cumbre de APEC en Sydney, Sr. de Australia. Hu Jintao mantuvo que “el convenio de base de Naciones Unidas debe seguir siendo el canal principal para los esfuerzos internacionales” de tratar el cambio del clima”.
El cuarto informe del gravamen del panel intergubernamental en el cambio del clima (IPCC), que acentuó las consecuencias de gran envergadura que continuaron calentarse global tendrían a través del mundo, ha dado nuevo impulso a encontrar la solución al problema. La cumbre del grupo de ocho industrializó los países (G8) sostenidos en Alemania en el mes del junio de 2007 acordó lanzar las nuevas iniciativas para la acción colectiva por naciones ricas y países en vías de desarrollo de crecimineto rápido para combatir el cambio del clima. De su cuarto informe del gravamen, el IPCC, el cuerpo internacional que tiene la tarea de pesar evidencia científica en cambio del clima, señalado a la evidencia definitiva que la concentración atmosférica global del invernadero dominante provee de gas por ejemplo el bióxido de carbono “había aumentado marcado como resultado de actividades humanas desde 1750”. Estos gases atrapaban el calor de la tierra que habría irradiado de otra manera hacia fuera en espacio. Si la acumulación de los gases del invernadero y el calentarse resultante del planeta fueron permitidos continuar desenfrenado, la humanidad tendrá que colectivamente hacer frente a varias consecuencias. Las sequías y la desertificación están entre los impactos del cambio del clima. El papel de la posición se está centrando en los desafíos y ofrece las soluciones para parar los impactos del cambio del clima con la adopción de medidas incluyendo las respuestas personales basadas fe para la transformación de los patrones ecológico hostiles del uso de la consumición, de la producción y del ocio.
Del progreso las porciones
hasta ahora de seminarios y de conferencias se han organizado para tratar el desafío global. Hay las blancos de la emisión del protocolo de Kyoto para las cuales se han ideado las estrategias nacionales. El protocolo de Kyoto conocido formalmente como convenios de base de la O.N.U sobre cambio del clima no ha sido ratificado por algunas de las naciones importantes. LOS E.E.U.U. y Australia no está ratificando el protocolo pues tienen opiniones de la desventaja competitiva. Hay acuerdos para reducir las emisiones por el año 2020 y 2050. Existe una movilización vibrante de la sociedad civil y movilización de los grupos de la juventud. Varios grupos están trabajando para la defensa de la política para poner las blancos en ejecución obligatorias para la emisión de los gases verdes de la casa. También existe una defensa dinámica de la política para el R&D en energía reanudable de modo que haya un montón de energía basada del recurso reanudable para substituir la energía no renovable. Los partidos verdes que existen en más de 88 países están llamando para el reemplazo para el invernadero que genera fuentes de energía basadas del combustible fósil con energía reanudable.
El panel intergubernamental de la O.N.U en cambio del clima se ha concedido el premio Nobel junto con Roberto Al Gore para trabajar en el cambio del clima. El comité Nobel del noruego citó a recipientes “para que sus esfuerzos acumulen y diseminen mayor conocimiento sobre cambio artificial del clima y pongan las fundaciones para las medidas que son necesarias contrariar tal cambio”. Sr. Al Gore respondió a la citación que decía que “hacemos frente a una emergencia verdaderamente planetaria: el cambio del clima no es una edición política, es un desafío moral y espiritual a toda la humanidad”. Mr.R.K. Pachaury que comparte el premio con Roberto Al Gore mientras que respondió el presidente del panel intergubernamental en cambio del clima que el premio de la paz Nobel agregaría el sentido de la urgencia a la lucha contra calentarse global. IPCC, instalado en 1988, es tasked con dar a policymakers un resumen del conocimiento más último sobre cambio del clima. El jefe de Gavin Edwards del clima y la energía hacen campaña, Greenpeace internacional hablando de lo que pueden hacer los gobiernos a través del mundo para atenuar el problema precisaron la necesidad de reconsiderar términos del protocolo que reconoce la responsabilidad distinguida de las varias naciones que responden al cambio del clima. Él precisa la necesidad de los países en vías de desarrollo de hacer todo el necesario y de no repetir los errores de los países desarrollados - las “organizaciones no gubernamentales realmente se han centrado en las naciones industrializadas que tienen que hacer la parte del león de abordar el clima cambiar-que está claro. Pero cuál está también claro es ése los países en vías de desarrollo como la India y China continúa constantemente convirtiéndose con el negocio como viejo acercamiento generalmente del desarrollo del estilo. Podrían repetir las mismas equivocaciones que el oeste ha incurrido en en las últimas décadas. Y, si la India, China y otros países continúan incurriendo en esas equivocaciones, después sin importar qué el oeste está haciendo para abordar el cambio del clima él sea imposible”.
Los instrumentos abogados para atenuar las tecnologías económicas de energía
del cambio del clima se están desarrollando para reducir al mínimo la consumición de la energía. Las lámparas de CFL se están promoviendo como parte de utilidades económicas de energía y de equipos para contribuir en la reducción de las emisiones de gas verdes de la casa. Allí también metas para el reemplazo de la energía reanudable del throng no renovable de la energía. Partido verde en el reemplazo a gama completa de la búsqueda de Alemania de la energía no renovable por energía reanudable por el año 2020. Hay los tratados que han sido firmado sin embargo ellos no se siguen religioso. Más financiamiento se está buscando para la investigación para los servicios basados globalizing y las utilidades de la energía reanudable. Las blancos obligatorias en la reducción de la emisión no están allí al igual que evidente de la recomendación del aspirational de la cumbre de APEC concluida recientemente en Sydney como parte de los procesos para el convenio de base de la O.N.U sobre el cambio del clima que se sostendrá en Bali en el mes del diciembre de 2007. Hay planes de la acción desprovistos de políticas y de la blanco obligatorias para la emisión de los gases verdes de la casa.
Si la acumulación de los gases del invernadero y de calentarse resultante del planeta fue permitida continuar desenfrenado, tendremos colectivamente consecuencias en términos de pérdida de los sustentos ecológico sostenibles, habitat, faltas de cosecha, distribución no equitativa de los habitat ecológico seguros a través del mundo. Es bien sabido que el auge económico global está acelerando emisiones de gas verdes de la casa con los patrones basados energía no renovable de los habitat urbanos siempre que se amplían, de la consumición, de la producción y del transporte.
Los problemas en las estrategias
allí son las estrategias que se han identificado con el reconocimiento global de la necesidad de reducir emisiones verdes de la casa. Sin embargo, consiguen derrotados mientras que las metas se fijan con resultados y visiones de la contradicción. Por ejemplo, el cálculo del GDP no considera el impacto en el ambiente y costes ecológicos y no es así por lo tanto factores en el cálculo del producto interno bruto. Los costes enormes en ambientes se no hacen caso después de la convicción que todos los recursos están para el uso y su no-utilización es un indicador del desarrollo tecnológico bajo. Un habitat ecológico sostenible no se considera valioso con sustentos ecológico sostenibles. La divulgación trimestral sobre el aumento en el GDP no factor el aumento en emisiones de gas verdes de la casa. 7mo La iniciativa de la generación en Canadá con acto de la medida del bienestar en una iniciativa para descomponer en factores los costes ecológicos y el coste de las mujeres trabajan en el país
www.sustainwellbeing.net. Creen que el cálculo del producto interno bruto debe incluir el coste en el ambiente ese nuestras acciones en el presente tiene
www.sustainwellbeing.net. Mike Nickerson y Joe Jordon han estado haciendo campaña por años.
Los partidos políticos continúan siendo inspirados por visiones a corto plazo y no es absolutamente su avería. SIMPOL está trabajando con los votantes global para influenciar la adopción simultánea de políticas. Hay necesidad de asegurar acciones cada vez más simultáneas global para las acciones pacíficas, decisiones, las opciones que contribuirán en seguridad ecológica colectiva. Los partidos políticos necesitan ser educados para apoyar las políticas que aseguran la protección de sustentos ecológico sostenibles y de habitat. La fundación de trabajo de la liga, la confianza de Sufi y CEASIG como parte del foro nacional de los trabajadores del bosque y el bosque pueblan el soporte de las derechas de la tierra en sus habitat tradicionales con suprimir el impacto de las legislaciones coloniales que las privaron las sus derechas a las tierras de la granja y de la agricultura. Los partidos verdes se refieren sobre las ediciones ecológico seguras pero sus votantes son pocos. La mayor parte de los partidos políticos se refieren a las ediciones que son más atractivas a la élite y a la clase media en el presente inmediato.
Otro cañizo importante experimentado de la manera de conseguir las respuestas globales para atenuar el cambio del clima es comercialización continuada de los patrones intensivos de la consumición del combustible fósil, diseños de los habitat urbanos, paradigma del desarrollo, nacionalismos competitivos para buscar los marcadores de las formas de vida intensivas del combustible fósil, devaluación de los patrones ecológico sostenibles de la consumición de la agricultura. Existe ayuda política continuada para los productos culturales y los procesos que sean hostiles a la seguridad ecológica nacional y global. Mientras que hay medidas para los gravámenes ecológicos del impacto del ambiente del impacto pero entonces existe marcado ausencia de las preocupaciones por tratar las causas de la raíz de desastres ecológicos y artificiales. Marginalisation de los grupos basados fe de la juventud por el intelligentsia ateo continúa siendo el problema que necesita ser tratado. Necesitan ser traídos a bordo.
Paradigma nacional ecológico seguro del desarrollo de la estrategia
que considera el antedicho, se propone que un paradigma nacional ecológico seguro del desarrollo de la estrategia contiene las características siguientes:
1. La comercialización de la consumición ecológico segura, producción, uso del ocio modeló
2. Desalentar los patrones ecológico hostiles 3 de la consumición y
de la producción. Promoción del comercio de la vecindad y de la educación y de desalentar el comercio y la educación ecológico hostiles
4. Agricultura ecológico sostenible
5. Promoción de los sistemas ecológico sostenibles 6
del transporte. La fe basó las medidas para la transformación del patrón 7 del uso
del ocio. Promoción y protección de los habitat ecológico sostenibles
8. sistema libre exento de intereses y de la deuda ecológico seguro 9
de las finanzas. Los modelos ecológico seguros del éxito
hacia una reducción
de la solución en la emisión de los gases verdes de la casa con promover medidas y los patrones de la decisión que moderan la consumición de los servicios y de las utilidades basados en la consumición de la casa verde que emite los combustibles fósiles son críticos que todos referidos a salvaguardar la humanidad de los impactos negativos del cambio del clima, reduciendo al mínimo la incidencia de la sequía y parando la extensión de desiertos y previniendo la pérdida de habitat ecológico sostenibles y de sustentos. En vista de las emergencias, se discute que la adopción de la fe basó las medidas para los patrones del uso del ocio que transformaban está considerada en prioridad. El diagrama de siguiente demuestra el impacto y las relaciones que la adopción del rezo y de la meditación 5 mide el tiempo de un día en los patrones de la consumición.
Los hombres y las mujeres que siguen los comandos para el rezo y la meditación 5 miden el tiempo de un día no son probables complacer en la consumición de porciones de los contratos del trabajo del poste de la tarde que requieren recorridos interurbanos pues éste interferiría en la observancia del comando para el rezo /salah /meditation /yoga en las horas designadas. Puede ser visto fácilmente que la adopción de este comando asegurará la transformación de porciones de consumición del ocio intensivo del combustible fósil tal como ir a la barra y a los pasillos que bailan. Esto se puede adoptar junto con varias otras respuestas personales y de la comunidad para reducir la emisión de casas verdes. Las respuestas basadas fe aparecen ser más eficaces y necesitan ser promovidas en cuanto a esto no hay necesidad de hacer esfuerzos adicionales. La asociación del conservadurismo del `' aparece ser más uno de la respuesta que algunos hombres y mujeres pueden tener para la comunicación de medidas basadas fe. Pero entonces es importante ver la importancia de la adopción de la medida basada fe para la eficacia, la seguridad, la conveniencia, la deseabilidad y la validez ecológicas. Las respuestas basadas fe son comunes y apenas necesitan ser promovidas para su contribución en el bienestar ecológico en los niveles personales, de la comunidad, sociales, nacionales y globales. Hay una necesidad urgente igual.
La fe personal basó rezo
de las respuestas 5 veces al día para el patrón del uso del ocio que transformaba que reconocía que los patrones del uso del ocio son uno de los contratos sociales dominantes que consumen la mayor parte de los servicios basados y las utilidades del combustible fósil. El comando para el rezo es común a través de los textos religiosos aunque aparece practicado lo más prominente posible por los hombres y las mujeres que siguen las comunicaciones de Muhammad, creídos para ser el mensajero pasado por Muslims (los hombres y las mujeres que someten a la voluntad del dios/de Allah/. /.
Cómo la adopción del rezo transforma los patrones de la consumición y los hombres intensivos y las mujeres de los patrones del uso del ocio
del recorrido ecológico hostil que practican el rezo (salah en árabe) no visitan pasillos y barras que bailan mientras que se refieren más sobre la rogación a tiempo. El rezo por la mañana, tarde, después de la puesta del sol y entonces del rezo después de la cena en los pasillos del rezo y de la meditación de las iglesias/synagogue/de los mosques/de los hogares/lugar de trabajo hace que limitan al foco en el trabajo necesario solamente. El rezo y el remembrance para ellos es un medio de la relajación, de la tensión que revienta, de la socialización, y del communion y así sucesivamente. Concentrados de S/he en las materias esenciales en la vecindad y los cuidados para ellos según lo ordenado a través de los mensajeros. En segundo lugar, abstienen de la consumición exhibicionista que sigue el comando del dios Allah para no transgressing el sistema de los límites/de límites de God/de Allah. For dressing they believe that the best dress is that of piety determined by the extent to which they follow the commands of God/ Allah. They abstain from adultery following the commands against the same as they believe in upholding the best standards of piety. They seek forgiveness from God/Allah for the sinful deeds executed intentionally or unintentionally. Thus adoption of prayer 5 times a day works as a guard for all the behaviours that have been prohibited in the holy books across the religions.
They donate out of the sustenance for poor following the commands for donation/zakat, khairat, fitra and sadaqah/daan.. They do not waste and thus observe the best of the ideals communicated through the slogan of ‘waste not, want not’. They indulge in ecologically safe consumption and believe in moderation in all matters. The middle path communicated through the commands of God/Allah is best ensured through the adoption of compulsory prayers 5 times a day. Youth, Men and men following the commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru for remembrance of Ishwar are likely to have the similar best behaviour patterns that are ecologically safe. Their average ecological footprints are likely to be very low. This needs to be established with communication of more ecological audits/ water audits/green audits/ energy audits/ paper audits/ food intake audits- a series of audits that youth, men and women following the command of God/Allah perform or they are supposed to perform. They ensure more and more pious behaviour, consumption and production patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations call for generation of more pious responses as they are directly linked to reduction in the emission of green house gases .
Inter faith commons
The inter faith commons need to be communicated and disseminated for not only global integration but also for addressing the critical ecological challenge that we as part of humanity face . Global warming is no longer a concern of a particular nations but it is an issue that we all as part of humanity face. Inter faith commons bring to the fore the understanding that we have common monotheistic content and messengers who upheld the best standards of justice, communication, and struggle in their life time and fought men and women after utilizing the best means of persuasion. Shiv Sankalp Taru has a very interesting verse that needs to be brought in light for men and women who have special affinity for the Sanskrit textual tradition. The timings are very much common to the timing followed by the Muslims. It is a command that needs to be followed by all. Muslim youths, men and women already follow that following the communication of God/BRAHMM communicated through the last messenger while believing that commands were communicated through all the messengers earlier in various languages and lands. The commands followed by Muslims are the commands that were communicated through the earlier messengers were sent to all the lands to people who spoke various languages following the related verse in the holy Qur’an. Commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru “Ishwar smarate panch awasare” calls for remembrance of Ishwar who was neither born nor gave on five occasions in a day, every day-all the 365/366 days of the year.
Command for establishing prayer at the appointed hours exists in the Holy Qur’an. According to one count there are command for establishing salah and give zakat more that 54 times in the holy Qur’an. There are commands in Bible and Torah. Buddhist monotheistic tradition calls for fighting the ‘mara’ in the Dhammapada and the atheistic understanding calls for adoption of middle path in all the matters. Practice of meditation leads to transformation of consumption patterns. Gurus in the Sikhism and Jain traditions are examples of austere life filled with prayer and penance. Guru Nanak was a practitioner of prayer and remembrance and he is revered for that and followed by millions of Sikhs around the world. For Sikhs, it is not impossible to follow the best practices of Guru Nanak who established himself as a role model for millions of Sikhs around the world. Following table shows the interfaith commons that can be adopted by all. This is being proposed considering the absence of coherent strategy in the atheistic post-modern discourse and contingencies of the global emergencies that must be addressed.

How an ecologically sustainable / contended reverent economy is built up with happiness for all
Ecological economists are currently debating issues with the Washington consensus economist and fighting the TINA (there is no alternative) syndrome .Noam Chomsky believes in the alternative economic order and so do youths of the world who through their calls are wanting to see the change and taking up non-violent advocacy and communication for the needful change . He also believes in the alternative political and cultural order .Binary economists are calling for abolition of interest charged on the loans as they believe creation of money from thin air in the books of the bankers is responsible for lots of ecologically hostile and socially inequitable practices in consumption, production and distribution and leisure use patterns
www.binaryeconomics.org .
Elimination of usury, fiat money propelling the ecologically hostile growth of urban habitats is being pointed out to be a critical factor in building a socially inclusive and ecologically safe economy. Similarly, debt free credit /interest free loans are being promoted for zero debt distressed suicides and bankruptcies.
Another major feature of contented and ecological sustainable economy is its capacity and intent for the protection of ecologically sustainable habitats with renewable resource based life support systems. It is simply impossible to envisage sustainability of non-renewable based transport systems in perpetuity. Search for nuclear energy and intense research activity in the renewable resource based energy is a proof for this. It needs to be noted that while nuclear energy in the short run appears to be carbon neutral, but in the long run, this is also not sustainable as there are limited resources for running the reactors. It is clear that resources such as uranium and thorium are not for all the time in the future. Therefore, the only solution is to decelerate and regulate the consumption of non-renewable resource based services and utilities through instituting an ecologically sustainable economy with the following features:
1.Debt free money and interest free loans with public control on the creation of money
2.Rights to renewable resource based habitats
3.Ecologically sustainable leisure use patterns
4.Distributive justice for renewable resource based livelihoods
5.Freedom from worried of energy crisis
6.Protection of Renewable resource based livelihoods
Freedom from worries of energy crisis affecting energy intensive transportation systems and habitats is an essential constituent of an ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy .At present most of the planners are concerned with the increasing energy requirements and for this some countries are ready to sacrifice their ideals and foundations of foreign policy. Left parties in India along with other parties have been vociferously opposing the loss of independence in the foreign policy of India. It is important to ensure sustainability for the renewable resource based life support systems and for this it is important to halt the loss of ecologically sustainable habitats and agricultural production methodologies. It is not possible to ensure sustainability for habitat designs that are based on unsustainable energy sources. Therefore, it is not possible to ensure sustainability for skyscraper laden urban habitats. Urban areas with energy intensive shopping malls need to be brought within ecologically sustainable limits. For this to happen, it is important to support adoption of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance framework.
Youths as drivers of change processes and communication for transition to ecologically safe life support systems locally and globally
Creating debt free money and ensuring interest free loans in not quite easy as that requires change of hearts and minds of men and women governing the various institutions who find the proposals difficult. Success of the proposals for ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy and polity requires multiplication of men and women who uphold the criterion of piety. It is important that the pious men and women across the world prohibiting peacefully what is wrong and prescribing what is right take charge of the governance and ensure that debt free money is created, faith based measures are adopted for mitigating the impacts of climate change. It is important to understand the need to prepare for life after death as that would impel men and women to adopt faith based measures more and more. Now, the signs of ecological distress are too compelling to avoid collective and personal actions for both mitigating and halting the impacts of climate change. Signs of ecological distress affecting the lives of billions call for taking corrective action locally and globally. Youths and corporations who are market for non-renewable energy intensive services and utilities need to be in charge. Atheistic postmodernist laissez faire regimen of cultural, political and moral governance needs to be critically reviewed as they damage the survival interests of the billions in here and now and that of future generations.
Hurdles in the way/ constraints
There are hurdles in the way for such a massive change taking place simultaneously and globally and most pernicious among the faith based notions are that of neo-liberal atheistic ideology where market and profit devoid of the concerns of eternal interests of mankind are permitted to have full freedom. It is dominance of atheistic neo-liberal ideology that prevents men and women from adopting the faith based pious measures for addressing the global and local challenges. Media channels such as MTV with adoring participation of youths indoctrinated in the atheistic visions of good life are busy in creating models of copy cat consumption and leisure use patterns globally with local vernacular channels following in line. Starting with English music content in 90’s now MTV has more of Hindi songs and dance forms with direct message for youths for copying the ecologically leisure use pattern including partying ,dancing and drinking of intoxicating drinks.
The second hurdle is the lack on coherent national and international policy with respect to addressing the climate change. While Kyoto protocol emission target call for reduction in the emission of green house gases, national development strategies continue to be inspired by the perception of competitive disadvantage. It is dangerous to have such incoherence for long time as the assessments of climate scientists are too compelling. Speaking on the occasion of a meeting to the launch the full report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on the impacts of global warming, Professor Martin Parry, a climate scientist with MET office in UK and co-chairman of the working group for the report said, “We are all used to talking about the impact of these changes coming in the lifetime of our children and grand children. Now we know that it is us.” He added that politicians had wasted a decade in focussing on ways to cut emissions, and had woken up recently to the need to adapt. He felt that “mitigation has got all the attention, but we cannot mitigate out of this problem. We have now a choice between a damaged world and a severely damaged world”. (The Hindu 20 September 2007)
The hurdle can be seen through assessing the levels of convergence for the various agencies and their functioning. While there are calls for higher rates of growth, they are not assessed in the light of the demands of ecological sustainability. Even the promotion of indexes such as “sustainability index” is not getting the required attention and it has been left to the discretion of the nations. There are evidences of lack of interagency cooperation and United National Development Programme (UNDP) appears to be working against the mandate of United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Environment assessments /ministries are slighted for benefiting ecologically hostile proposals/ policies. More often than not considerations of ecological sustainability are ignored for sanctioning ecologically hostile projects. This is evident from the sanction of Special Economic Zones despite the violent and non-violent resistance of farmers in India as they did not want to give up on their only source of ecologically sustainable livelihoods through farming. Committee for Campaign on National Himalayan Policy for the ecologically fragile Himalayan region in India has been calling for redefinition of development policy.
Therefore there is a need to institute a governance framework that is both ecologically safe and socially inclusive with reference to poor, old, children and women, ethnic and religious groups residing both in rural and urban habitats.
Labour League Foundation along with several youth led organisations considers the need for establishing ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance with the following features:
1.A governance that is cognizant of the needs of poor, rights of farmers and villages to ecologically sustainable livelihoods and habitats
2.Governance that eliminates fictitious inflationary money and usurious loans created from thin air and responsible for expansion of ecologically hostile habitats
3. Governance that promotes pious and ecologically safe consumption and production pattern
4.A government that plans for ecologically safe disaster free future for all
5.Governance that ensure ecologically safe distribution of natural resources
6.Governance that works for the interests of all
7.Governance that ensures policy making for the rights of children, future generations and poor
.

Represents the key features of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance
Youth strategies
1.Multiplication of carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) across the cities and villages
These discussions initiated by youth and community elders in the neighbourhood where they gather for collective prayer, discussions and other social engagements. The recommendations of the discussions and simultaneous action compiled at various levels will be presented in the form of a memorandum to the local and world leader gathered in various summits and events accelerating the generation of ecologically safe survival and development policies and multiplication of ecologically safe survival policies. Local impacts will be generated through transformation of the leisure use pattern, consumption pattern, production systems ensuring minimisation of emission of green house gases and galvanising mass communication strategies for reduction in the personal contribution to the green house gases. The discussions on the urgency of reducing green house gases lead to the transformation of personal level consumption patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance (CEASIG), a Delhi based organisation believes that personal responses are critical for transformation of the consumption patterns. Unsustainable consumption patterns can be halted with the personal responses. Personal responses are always part of the global responses. Carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) will multiply ecologically safe responses across the urban and rural areas.
2.Multiplication of ecologically safe responses through promotion of green journalism
Production of analytical and advisory outputs through journalists is critical and they are one of the major stakeholders in shaping the opinions, consumption patterns. Journalists writing on lifestyle can substantially influence the consumption pattern of people in the urban areas. They can help in shaping the tastes and defining the choices. Journalists are important is generating democratic consensus for halting unsustainable consumption patterns. In our times, journalists play a very critical and sometimes they are responsible for defining the social, cultural and political trends. Youth organisations call for securing the future of villages, children and future generations with ecologically sustainable habitats, consumption patterns while ensuring inter-species justice.
3.Catalysing green politics
Labour league Foundation and Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations globally will be supporting the process for open and transparent politics for instilling the importance of ecologically safe green ideals. Youth organisations will be organising meetings with the representatives of the various media organisations and political parties and seek inclusion of ecological considerations in editorial policies and election manifestoes. Media organisations need to be visionary organisations and help in the preparation for an emerging future bereft of petro-modern consumption, transport, habitat and production systems.
4.Transformation of leisure use patterns
Youth organisations and youth wish to realise the millennium development goals for eliminating the unsustainable consumption patterns and wish to do so through suggesting transformation of the leisure use pattern. Suggestions for adoption of faith based measures that are common across the religious texts need to be taken seriously as part of global cultural commons. As indicated through the diagrammatic representation of the impact of adoption of faith based measures, youths call for generating interfaith consensus for acting simultaneously for transforming the leisure use patterns.
5.Calculation of ecological footprints, eliminating ecological rucksacks, returning to the ecologically sustainable habitats of the past for securing the ecological safe future of children and future generations
Youth call for dissemination of the practice of measuring ecological footprints for getting the desired actions for reducing the number of decisions involving emission of green house gases. Similarly, awareness on the loss of rocks due to excessive mining is critical for eliminating the amount of ecological losses. It is critical to value the conventional housing designs that use mud, grass, bamboo and wood. The definition of poverty considering the possession of adobe dwellings as a sign of poverty needs to be revised.
6.Ecological Audit of the consumption processes and patterns
The ecological audit is a concept proposed by Dr.Muhammad Mukhtar Alam, the chairman of Labour League Foundation
http://muhammad_mukhtar_alam.tigblog.org .This needs to be used along with the calculation of ecological footprints, environment audit/ green audit for assessing the impact of various decision and consumption patterns. Globalisation of the ecological audit at all levels is needed for supporting ecologically sustainable consumption patterns. This is important for realising the millennium development goals for environment sustainability by the year 2015. It is proposed that reports on sustainability index are incorporated in the formulation of the ecologically safe development policy.
7.Ecological Audit of the production systems / patterns
Production processes need to be assessed for ecological sustainability. There are ecologically sustainable and unsustainable production processes. The workshops with corporations interested in realising the millennium development goals will be conducted for getting in the changes in production processes. Youths believe based on the predictions on the oil reserves that Petro-modern production systems do not have a long future. Reducing energy demand for ecologically unsustainable production, consumption patterns is critical for halting the expansion of deserts and regularisation of rainfalls.
8.Ecological Audit of the transport systems / patterns
Renewable resource based transport systems are sustainable and non-renewable resource based transport systems are not sustainable. Ecological Audit of the transport systems needs to be encouraged for all organisations and ministries dealing with transport. Minimising / Eliminating travel is critical for ecologically sustainable habitats. We need to prepare for the end of petro-modern age.
9.Ecological Audit of the leisure use patterns-
There are leisure use patterns that do not use green house gas producing fossil fuels and there are leisure use patterns that are based on renewable resources and that does not involve consumption of fossil fuels. Workshop with the neighbourhood discussion leaders and resident welfare associations needs to be conducted for necessary transformation of leisure use patterns. Children, youths and elders need to be encouraged to adopt faith based measures for relaxation and stress busting. There are several studies that have demonstrated the impact of prayer and meditation on stress levels. Ecological audit of the leisure engagements need to be supported for getting the desired response for reduction in the emission of green house gases through transformation of leisure use patterns.
10.Interfaith dialogue for addressing the climate change, farmer’s suicides, and social security for workers in unorganized sector and transforming finance sector
Appreciation of the common commands for prayer, donation, compassion, charity and prohibition of usury, adultery, and homosexuality is needed with wider dissemination of the same. Adoption of these commands addresses the challenge of climate change, ecologically hostile usurious system, AIDS and so on. Inter-faith dialogue will ensure generation of responses across the faith groups. Delhi has a vibrant culture of interfaith dialogue. Sant Rajinder Singh of Sawan Kripal Ashram has been conducting the same for many years. Youth organisation need to work independently or in collaboration with faith based organisations for generating more forums of interfaith dialogue.
11.National/ regional/ city/ village based conventions on Inter Faith common responses for addressing the climate change-
Governments need to be encouraged for holding national conventions for generating consensus for adoption of faith based measures for addressing the climate change. There are cultural responses for fighting the atheistic neo-liberal cultural trends emanating from Europe and copied by youth in the name of globalisation and modernity. National Convention will address the issue of climate change through adopting the interfaith commons while preserving religious diversity and ecologically sustainable dietary, sartorial, linguistic diversities.
12.Carbon neutral Youth colloquiums / meetings / Majlis-e-Naujawan/ Yuva Harit Bharat Sabha/../../
Youths propose globalisation of local efforts for contributing in the mitigation of the impacts of climate change. Governments recognise the critical role of youths as more and more organisations led by youths are involved in consultation. It is suggested that Green youth forums with vernacular names need to be formed and discussions be held with active government support for getting the desired response pattern for halting the expansion of unsustainable consumption pattern and leisure use pattern through adoption of faith based measures.
Conclusion:
Imagining the responses of the weaker species in the face of man made onslaughts on the non-renewable resources , many youths across the world recognise the threats represented through the expression of anguish of the billions of poor who are angry, dispossessed and seeking an end to the process of non-renewable resource based usurious finance fuelled expansion of consumption and production pattern that is causing serious loss of livelihood for millions across the Earth and call upon all the governments, civil society organisations, corporations engaged in ecologically hostile production processes to boycott the ecologically hostile usurious finance and prevent further loss of ecologically sustainable habitats that are an immediate outcome of the expansion of ecologically hostile non-renewable resource based habitats. Nations need to compete in establishing the models of ecologically safe economy, polity and culture. Youth of the world are ready to become a leader along with Muslims, Greens and men and women of the world who wish to halt the political expansion of the atheistic neo-liberal ideology that is responsible for exacerbating the ecological distress demonstrated through the increased incidence of drought and expansion of deserts causing suffering for millions. Adaptation is the weakest response and youths call for halting the negative impacts of climate change. Nothing is impossible.

RUOLO delle gioventù nella MINIMIZZAZIONE DELL'INCIDENZA DELLA SICCITÀ E NELLA FERMATA DELL'ESPANSIONE DEI DESERTI THROUHG che RICHIAMANO IL CAMBIAMENTO di CLIMA VICINO TRASFORMAZIONE DEI MODELLI ECOLOGICAMENTE INSOSTENIBILI DEL CONSUMO, DI PRODUZIONE E

Le siccità e la desertificazione come effetto delle siccità del cambiamento
di clima sono state una causa di preoccupazione in tutta la parte del mondo per i secoli. Ci sono riferimenti per lo stesso nei testi santi quali il Torah santo, la bibbia e il Qur santo'. Yusuf/Joseph, il figlio più giovane di Yaqoob/Jacob, il messaggero di Allah/dio ha registrato per raccomandare il re dell'Egitto per la preparazione per gli anni di siccità in base ad un sogno che il re ha visto ed accennato all'ex prigioniero che vive con Joseph (pace è su lui). Il re si è comportato sull'interpretazione del suo sogno fornito da Joseph (pace è su lui) e per 7 anni della siccità. Similmente, la desertificazione è stata un processo che è stato registrato come uno del processo che è stato sopra in varie parti del mondo. Le siccità sono contrassegnate dall'assenza di pioggia o di pioggia inadeguata che è responsabile di perdita dei raccolti o della resa del raccolto inadeguata che causano una preoccupazione seria per alimento. La desertificazione è collegata con perdita degli habitat agricoli. La perdita dei terreni agricoli, la copertura della foresta è un risultato del globalisation dei processi di produzione industriale basati sulle risorse basate risorse non rinnovabili. Il cambiamento di clima è un risultato del globalisation degli agglomerati urbani basati risorsa non rinnovabile. La siccità è, tra altri fattori, responsabili di degradazione del terreno. Inoltre è stato stabilito che la desertificazione aumenta l'effetto delle emissioni di gas verdi della casa. Ci è così un rapporto di causa e di effetto fra cambiamento e desertificazione climatici.
Il fuoco della carta da posizione della gioventù sulla siccità e sulla desertificazione quindi è su quanto segue:
1. La valutazione delle risposte al cambiamento di clima sta facenda,
2. valutazioni degli strumenti per l'attenuazione degli effetti dei climi,
3. le transenne affrontate nell'esecuzione dell'emissione di protocollo de Kyoto designa
4 come bersaglio. Vincoli nella strategia e nella proposta di sviluppo di strategia ecologicamente sostenibile 5
di sviluppo. Richieda approvazione della struttura ecologicamente sicuro e socialmente compresa di controllo per ecologicamente il sustainability e socialmente l'equità
6. La fede innovatrice ha basato le strategie
7. Strategie della gioventù
Cambi nel clima con l'aumento nella temperatura di terra, cambiamento nei modelli di pioggia è causato dovuto emissione dei gas verdi della casa che sollevano la temperatura di terra poichè la quantità di gas verdi della casa generati è molto più della capacità della copertura verde per assorbire. Gli effetti del cambiamento di clima stanno ritenendi dappertutto oltre le frontiere nazionali. Ci sono parecchie prove registrate che ha indotto le nazioni ad intraprendere la sfida di .UN che di riscaldamento globale il pannello intergovernativo sul cambiamento di clima è stato riunione e riflettere sull'edizione. Ci sono parecchi risposte nazionali ed accordi internazionali. Recentemente la Cina e gli Stati Uniti ha espresso l'accordo lavorare al cambiamento di clima. Parlando occasionalmente della sommità di APEC a Sydney, sig. dell'Australia. Hu Jintao ha effettuato che “la convenzione di struttura delle Nazioni Unite dovrebbe rimanere la scanalatura principale per gli sforzi internazionali„ richiamare il cambiamento di clima„.
Il rapporto di valutazione di quarto del pannello intergovernativo sul cambiamento di clima (IPCC), che ha dato risalto alle conseguenze ampie che hanno continuato il riscaldamento globale avrebbero attraverso il mondo, ha dato il nuovo impulso a trovare la soluzione al problema. La riunione al vertice del gruppo di otto ha industrializzato i paesi (G8) tenuti in Germania nel mese del giugno 2007 accosentito per lanciare le nuove iniziative per azione collettiva sia dalle nazioni ricche che dai p#si in via di sviluppo a crescita rapida per combattere il cambiamento di clima. di relativo rapporto di valutazione di quarto, il IPCC, l'organismo internazionale che ha l'operazione di pesare la prova scientifica sul cambiamento di clima, indicato a prova definitiva che la concentrazione atmosferica globale della serra chiave si intossica quale l'anidride carbonica “era aumentato contrassegnato come conseguenza delle attività umane dal 1750„. Questi gas stavano intrappolando il calore della terra che si sarebbe irradiato al contrario fuori in spazio. Se l'accumulazione dei gas della serra ed il riscaldamento risultante del pianeta fossero permessi continuare incontrollato, l'umanità dovrà collettivamente affrontare parecchie conseguenze. Le siccità e la desertificazione sono fra gli effetti del cambiamento di clima. La carta da posizione sta mettendo a fuoco sulle sfide ed offre le soluzioni per la fermata degli effetti del cambiamento di clima con approvazione delle misure compreso le risposte personali basate fede per trasformazione dei modelli ecologicamente ostili di uso del consumo, di produzione e di svago.
Di progresso i lotti
finora dei seminari e dei congressi sono stati organizzati per il richiamo della sfida globale. Ci sono obiettivi dell'emissione di protocollo de Kyoto per cui le strategie nazionali sono state inventate. Il protocollo de Kyoto conosciuto formalmente come le convenzioni di struttura di NU sul cambiamento di clima non è stato ratificato da alcune delle nazioni importanti. Gli Stati Uniti e l'Australia non sta ratificando il protocollo poichè hanno percezioni dello svantaggio competitivo. Ci sono accordi per la riduzione delle emissioni entro gli anni 2020 e 2050. Esiste una mobilizzazione vibrant della società civile e mobilizzazione dei gruppi della gioventù. Parecchi gruppi stanno lavorando per l'avvocatura di politica per effettuare gli obiettivi obbligatori per l'emissione dei gas verdi della casa. Inoltre esiste un'avvocatura dinamica di politica per la R & S nell'energia rinnovabile in modo che ci sia abbondanza di energia basata delle risorse rinnovabili per la sostituzione dell'energia non rinnovabile. I partiti verdi che esistono in più di 88 paesi stanno richiedendo il rimontaggio per la serra che genera le fonti di energia basate del combustibile fossile con energia rinnovabile.
Il pannello intergovernativo del NU sul cambiamento di clima ha ricevuto il premio Nobel con Robert Al Gore per lavorare al cambiamento di clima. Il comitato Nobel del norvegese ha citato i destinatari “affinchè i loro sforzi sviluppi e diffondere la conoscenza più grande circa il cambiamento artificiale di clima e porre i fondamenti per le misure che sono necessarie neutralizzare un tal cambiamento„. Sig. Al Gore ha risposto alla citazione che dice che “affrontiamo un'emergenza vero planetaria: il cambiamento di clima non è un'edizione politica, è una sfida morale e spiritosa a tutta l'umanità„. Mr.R.K. Pachaury che ripartisce il premio con Robert Al Gore mentre il presidente del pannello intergovernativo sul cambiamento di clima ha risposto che il premio di pace Nobel aggiungerebbe il senso di urgenza alla lotta contro il riscaldamento globale. IPCC, installato in 1988, è tasked con fare a policymakers un resoconto di ultima conoscenza circa il cambiamento di clima. La testa del Gavin Edwards del clima e l'energia fanno una campagna, Greenpeace internazionale parlando di che cosa i governi attraverso il mondo possono fare per attenuare il problema hanno precisato la necessità di riconsiderare i termini del protocollo che riconosce la responsabilità differenziata di varie nazioni che rispondono al cambiamento di clima. Precisa la necessità per i p#si in via di sviluppo di fare tutto il needful e di non ripetere gli errori dei paesi sviluppati - “le organizzazioni non governative realmente hanno messo a fuoco sulle nazioni industrializzate che devono fare la parte del leone di affrontare il clima cambi-che è chiaro. Ma che cosa è inoltre chiaro è quello p#si in via di sviluppo come l'India e la Cina costantemente continua a svilupparsi con il commercio come vecchio metodo usuale di sviluppo di stile. Potrebbero ripetere gli stessi errori che l'ovest ha fatto nelle ultime decadi. E, se l'India, la Cina ed altri paesi continuano a fare quegli errori, quindi senza riguardo che cosa l'ovest sta facendo per affrontare il cambiamento di clima esso sia impossibile„.
Gli strumenti sostenuti per l'attenuazione delle tecnologie di ottimo rendimento
del cambiamento di clima stanno sviluppandi per la minimizzazione del consumo dell'energia. Le lampade di CFL stanno promuovende come componente dei programmi di utilità di ottimo rendimento e delle attrezzature per contribuire nella riduzione delle emissioni di gas verdi della casa. Là inoltre gli obiettivi per il rimontaggio di energia non rinnovabile affollano l'energia rinnovabile. Partito verde nel rimontaggio in grande scala di ricerca della Germania di energia non rinnovabile da energia rinnovabile entro l'anno 2020. Ci sono trattati che sono stati firmato comunque religioso non sono seguiti. Più costituire un fondo per sta cercando per ricerca per i servizi basati globalizing ed i programmi di utilità di energia rinnovabile. Gli obiettivi obbligatori su riduzione dell'emissione non è là come è evidente dalla raccomandazione di aspirational della sommità di APEC conclusiva recentemente a Sydney come componente dei processi per la convenzione di struttura di NU sul cambiamento di clima da tenere in Bali nel mese del dicembre 2007. Ci sono piani d'azione privi delle politiche e dell'obiettivo obbligatori per l'emissione dei gas verdi della casa.
Se l'accumulazione dei gas della serra e del riscaldamento risultante del pianeta fosse permessa continuare incontrollato, avremo collettivamente conseguenze in termini di perdita delle vite ecologicamente sostenibili, gli habitat, i guasti di raccolto, distribuzione inequitable degli habitat ecologicamente sicuri attraverso il mondo. È ben noto che l'asta economica globale sta accelerando le emissioni di gas verdi della casa con i modelli basati energia non rinnovabile mai d'espansione degli agglomerati urbani, del consumo, di produzione e di trasporto.
I problemi nelle strategie
là sono strategie che sono state identificate con riconoscimento globale della necessità di ridurre le emissioni verdi della casa. Nondimeno, ottengono sconfitti mentre gli obiettivi sono regolati con i risultati e le visioni di contraddizione. Per esempio, il calcolo del P.I.L. non considera l'effetto sull'ambiente e sui costi ecologici e così non è quindi fattori nel calcolo del prodotto interno lordo. I costi enormi sugli ambienti sono ignorati dopo la convinzione che tutte le risorse sono per l'uso e la loro non-utilizzazione è un indicatore di sviluppo tecnologico basso. Un habitat ecologicamente sostenibile non è considerato importante con le vite ecologicamente sostenibili. La segnalazione trimestrale in aumento nel P.I.L. non fattore l'aumento nelle emissioni di gas verdi della casa. settimo L'iniziativa della generazione nel Canada con la Legge di misura di benessere in un'iniziativa per scomporre i costi in fattori ecologici ed il costo delle donne funzionano nel paese
www.sustainwellbeing.net. Credono che il calcolo del prodotto interno lordo debba includere il costo sull'ambiente quel le nostre azioni nel presente abbia
www.sustainwellbeing.net. Mike Nickerson e Joe Jordon stanno facendo una campagna per gli anni.
I partiti politici continuano ad essere ispirati dalle visioni di breve durata e non è abbastanza il loro difetto. SIMPOL sta funzionando con gli elettori globalmente per l'influenza dell'approvazione simultanea delle politiche. Ci è necessità di accertare le azioni sempre più simultanee globalmente per le azioni pacifiche, decisioni, scelte che contribuiranno nella sicurezza ecologica collettiva. I partiti politici devono essere istruiti per il sostegno delle politiche che accertano la protezione delle vite ecologicamente sostenibili e degli habitat. Il fondamento della lega di lavoro, la fiducia di Sufi e CEASIG come componente di tribuna nazionale degli operai della foresta e la foresta popolano il sostegno dei diritti di terra nei loro habitat tradizionali through cancellando l'effetto delle legislazioni coloniali che le hanno private i loro diritti alle terre di agricoltura e della fattoria. I partiti verdi sono interessati circa le edizioni ecologicamente sicuri ma i loro elettori sono pochi. La maggior parte dei partiti politici sono interessati delle edizioni che sono più supplichevoli all'elite ed al codice categoria centrale nel presente immediato.
Un'altra transenna principale sperimentata nel senso di ottenere le risposte globali per l'attenuazione del cambiamento di clima è vendita continuata dei modelli intensi del consumo del combustibile fossile, i disegni degli agglomerati urbani, il paradigma di sviluppo, nazionalismi competitivi per la ricerca degli indicatori dei lifestyles intensi del combustibile fossile, svalutazione dei modelli ecologicamente sostenibili del consumo di agricoltura. Esiste sostegno politico continuato i prodotti culturali e processi che sono ostili a sicurezza ecologica nazionale e globale. Mentre ci sono misure per le valutazioni ecologiche di effetto dell'ambiente di effetto ma allora contrassegnato esiste assenza delle preoccupazioni per il richiamo delle cause della radice dei disastri ecologici ed artificiali. Marginalisation dei gruppi basati fede della gioventù dal intelligentsia atheistic continua ad essere problema che deve essere indirizzato. Devono essere portati a bordo.
Paradigma nazionale ecologicamente sicuro di sviluppo di strategia
che considera il suddetto, è proposto che un paradigma nazionale ecologicamente sicuro di sviluppo di strategia contenga le seguenti caratteristiche:
1. La vendita di consumo ecologicamente sicuro, produzione, uso di svago ha modellato
2. Scoraggiamento dei modelli ecologicamente ostili 3 di produzione e
del consumo. Promozione di commercio della vicinanza e di formazione e di scoraggiamento commercio e della formazione ecologicamente ostili
4. Agricoltura ecologicamente sostenibile
5. Promozione dei sistemi ecologicamente sostenibili 6
di trasporto. La fede ha basato le misure per trasformazione del modello 7 di uso
di svago. Promozione e protezione degli habitat ecologicamente sostenibili
8. sistema libero ecologicamente sicuro 9 di debito ed esente da interessi
di finanza. I modelli ecologicamente sicuri di successo
verso una riduzione
della soluzione dell'emissione dei gas verdi della casa through promuovendo le misure ed i modelli di decisione che moderano il consumo dei servizi e dei programmi di utilità basati sul consumo della casa verde che emette i combustibili fossili è critici che tutti interessati del salvaguardare l'umanità dagli effetti negativi del cambiamento di clima, minimizzanti l'incidenza della siccità e fermanti l'espansione dei deserti ed impedenti la perdita degli habitat ecologicamente sostenibili e delle vite. Tenendo conto delle emergenze, si argomenta che l'approvazione di fede ha basato le misure per i modelli di trasformazione di uso di svago è considerata sulla priorità. Lo schema seguente dimostra l'effetto ed i rapporti che l'approvazione della preghiera e della meditazione 5 cronometra un giorno sui modelli del consumo.
Gli uomini e le donne che seguono gli ordini per la preghiera e la meditazione 5 cronometra un giorno non sono probabili dedicarsi in il consumo dei lotti degli impegni del lavoro dell'alberino di sera che richiedono le corse interurbane poichè questo interferirebbe nel rispetto dell'ordine per la preghiera /salah /meditation /yoga alle ore nominate. Può essere visto facilmente che l'approvazione di questo ordine accerterà la trasformazione dei lotti di consumo di svago intenso del combustibile fossile come andare alla barra ed ai corridoi ballanti. Ciò può essere adottata con parecchie altre risposte della Comunità e personali per la riduzione dell'emissione delle case verdi. Le risposte basate fede sembrano essere più efficaci e devono essere promosse per quanto riguarda questo non ci è necessità di fare gli sforzi supplementari. L'associazione del tradizionalismo del `' sembra essere più uno della risposta che alcuni uomini e donne possono avere per la comunicazione delle misure basate fede. Ma allora è importante vedere l'importanza dell'approvazione della misura basata fede per efficacia, sicurezza, l'idoneità, l'opportunità e la validità ecologiche. Le risposte basate fede sono comuni e devono appena essere promosse per il loro contributo nel benessere ecologico ai livelli personali, della Comunità, sociali, nazionali e globali. Ci è un'esigenza urgente dello stesso.
La fede personale ha basato la preghiera
di risposte 5 volte un il giorno per il modello di trasformazione di uso di svago che riconosce che i modelli di uso di svago sono uno degli impegni sociali chiave che consumano la maggior parte dei servizi basati e dei programmi di utilità del combustibile fossile. L'ordine per la preghiera è comune attraverso i testi religiosi benchè sembri esercitato in il più prominente dagli uomini e dalle donne che seguono le comunicazioni di Muhammad, creduti per essere l'ultimo messaggero da Muslims (uomini e donne che presentano alla volontà del dio/Allah/. /.
Come l'approvazione della preghiera trasforma i modelli del consumo ed uomini intensi e le donne dei modelli di uso di svago
di corsa ecologicamente ostile che si esercitano nella preghiera (salah in arabo) non visitano i corridoi e le barre ballanti mentre di più sono interessati circa la preghiera a tempo. La preghiera di mattina, il pomeriggio, dopo il tramonto ed allora la preghiera dopo il pranzo nei corridoi di preghiera e di meditazione delle chiese/synagogue/dei mosques/delle sedi/posto di lavoro li fa limitare al fuoco sul lavoro necessario soltanto. La preghiera e il remembrance per loro è una media di rilassamento, dello sforzo che si rompono, della socializzazione e del communion e così via. Concentrati di S/he sugli argomenti essenziali nella vicinanza e sulle cure per loro come comandato attraverso i messaggeri. Secondariamente, si astengono da consumo exhibitionist che segue l'ordine del dio Allah per non transgressing l'insieme limiti/dei limiti da God/Allah. For dressing they believe that the best dress is that of piety determined by the extent to which they follow the commands of God/ Allah. They abstain from adultery following the commands against the same as they believe in upholding the best standards of piety. They seek forgiveness from God/Allah for the sinful deeds executed intentionally or unintentionally. Thus adoption of prayer 5 times a day works as a guard for all the behaviours that have been prohibited in the holy books across the religions.
They donate out of the sustenance for poor following the commands for donation/zakat, khairat, fitra and sadaqah/daan.. They do not waste and thus observe the best of the ideals communicated through the slogan of ‘waste not, want not’. They indulge in ecologically safe consumption and believe in moderation in all matters. The middle path communicated through the commands of God/Allah is best ensured through the adoption of compulsory prayers 5 times a day. Youth, Men and men following the commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru for remembrance of Ishwar are likely to have the similar best behaviour patterns that are ecologically safe. Their average ecological footprints are likely to be very low. This needs to be established with communication of more ecological audits/ water audits/green audits/ energy audits/ paper audits/ food intake audits- a series of audits that youth, men and women following the command of God/Allah perform or they are supposed to perform. They ensure more and more pious behaviour, consumption and production patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations call for generation of more pious responses as they are directly linked to reduction in the emission of green house gases .
Inter faith commons
The inter faith commons need to be communicated and disseminated for not only global integration but also for addressing the critical ecological challenge that we as part of humanity face . Global warming is no longer a concern of a particular nations but it is an issue that we all as part of humanity face. Inter faith commons bring to the fore the understanding that we have common monotheistic content and messengers who upheld the best standards of justice, communication, and struggle in their life time and fought men and women after utilizing the best means of persuasion. Shiv Sankalp Taru has a very interesting verse that needs to be brought in light for men and women who have special affinity for the Sanskrit textual tradition. The timings are very much common to the timing followed by the Muslims. It is a command that needs to be followed by all. Muslim youths, men and women already follow that following the communication of God/BRAHMM communicated through the last messenger while believing that commands were communicated through all the messengers earlier in various languages and lands. The commands followed by Muslims are the commands that were communicated through the earlier messengers were sent to all the lands to people who spoke various languages following the related verse in the holy Qur’an. Commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru “Ishwar smarate panch awasare” calls for remembrance of Ishwar who was neither born nor gave on five occasions in a day, every day-all the 365/366 days of the year.
Command for establishing prayer at the appointed hours exists in the Holy Qur’an. According to one count there are command for establishing salah and give zakat more that 54 times in the holy Qur’an. There are commands in Bible and Torah. Buddhist monotheistic tradition calls for fighting the ‘mara’ in the Dhammapada and the atheistic understanding calls for adoption of middle path in all the matters. Practice of meditation leads to transformation of consumption patterns. Gurus in the Sikhism and Jain traditions are examples of austere life filled with prayer and penance. Guru Nanak was a practitioner of prayer and remembrance and he is revered for that and followed by millions of Sikhs around the world. For Sikhs, it is not impossible to follow the best practices of Guru Nanak who established himself as a role model for millions of Sikhs around the world. Following table shows the interfaith commons that can be adopted by all. This is being proposed considering the absence of coherent strategy in the atheistic post-modern discourse and contingencies of the global emergencies that must be addressed.

How an ecologically sustainable / contended reverent economy is built up with happiness for all
Ecological economists are currently debating issues with the Washington consensus economist and fighting the TINA (there is no alternative) syndrome .Noam Chomsky believes in the alternative economic order and so do youths of the world who through their calls are wanting to see the change and taking up non-violent advocacy and communication for the needful change . He also believes in the alternative political and cultural order .Binary economists are calling for abolition of interest charged on the loans as they believe creation of money from thin air in the books of the bankers is responsible for lots of ecologically hostile and socially inequitable practices in consumption, production and distribution and leisure use patterns
www.binaryeconomics.org .
Elimination of usury, fiat money propelling the ecologically hostile growth of urban habitats is being pointed out to be a critical factor in building a socially inclusive and ecologically safe economy. Similarly, debt free credit /interest free loans are being promoted for zero debt distressed suicides and bankruptcies.
Another major feature of contented and ecological sustainable economy is its capacity and intent for the protection of ecologically sustainable habitats with renewable resource based life support systems. It is simply impossible to envisage sustainability of non-renewable based transport systems in perpetuity. Search for nuclear energy and intense research activity in the renewable resource based energy is a proof for this. It needs to be noted that while nuclear energy in the short run appears to be carbon neutral, but in the long run, this is also not sustainable as there are limited resources for running the reactors. It is clear that resources such as uranium and thorium are not for all the time in the future. Therefore, the only solution is to decelerate and regulate the consumption of non-renewable resource based services and utilities through instituting an ecologically sustainable economy with the following features:
1.Debt free money and interest free loans with public control on the creation of money
2.Rights to renewable resource based habitats
3.Ecologically sustainable leisure use patterns
4.Distributive justice for renewable resource based livelihoods
5.Freedom from worried of energy crisis
6.Protection of Renewable resource based livelihoods
Freedom from worries of energy crisis affecting energy intensive transportation systems and habitats is an essential constituent of an ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy .At present most of the planners are concerned with the increasing energy requirements and for this some countries are ready to sacrifice their ideals and foundations of foreign policy. Left parties in India along with other parties have been vociferously opposing the loss of independence in the foreign policy of India. It is important to ensure sustainability for the renewable resource based life support systems and for this it is important to halt the loss of ecologically sustainable habitats and agricultural production methodologies. It is not possible to ensure sustainability for habitat designs that are based on unsustainable energy sources. Therefore, it is not possible to ensure sustainability for skyscraper laden urban habitats. Urban areas with energy intensive shopping malls need to be brought within ecologically sustainable limits. For this to happen, it is important to support adoption of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance framework.
Youths as drivers of change processes and communication for transition to ecologically safe life support systems locally and globally
Creating debt free money and ensuring interest free loans in not quite easy as that requires change of hearts and minds of men and women governing the various institutions who find the proposals difficult. Success of the proposals for ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy and polity requires multiplication of men and women who uphold the criterion of piety. It is important that the pious men and women across the world prohibiting peacefully what is wrong and prescribing what is right take charge of the governance and ensure that debt free money is created, faith based measures are adopted for mitigating the impacts of climate change. It is important to understand the need to prepare for life after death as that would impel men and women to adopt faith based measures more and more. Now, the signs of ecological distress are too compelling to avoid collective and personal actions for both mitigating and halting the impacts of climate change. Signs of ecological distress affecting the lives of billions call for taking corrective action locally and globally. Youths and corporations who are market for non-renewable energy intensive services and utilities need to be in charge. Atheistic postmodernist laissez faire regimen of cultural, political and moral governance needs to be critically reviewed as they damage the survival interests of the billions in here and now and that of future generations.
Hurdles in the way/ constraints
There are hurdles in the way for such a massive change taking place simultaneously and globally and most pernicious among the faith based notions are that of neo-liberal atheistic ideology where market and profit devoid of the concerns of eternal interests of mankind are permitted to have full freedom. It is dominance of atheistic neo-liberal ideology that prevents men and women from adopting the faith based pious measures for addressing the global and local challenges. Media channels such as MTV with adoring participation of youths indoctrinated in the atheistic visions of good life are busy in creating models of copy cat consumption and leisure use patterns globally with local vernacular channels following in line. Starting with English music content in 90’s now MTV has more of Hindi songs and dance forms with direct message for youths for copying the ecologically leisure use pattern including partying ,dancing and drinking of intoxicating drinks.
The second hurdle is the lack on coherent national and international policy with respect to addressing the climate change. While Kyoto protocol emission target call for reduction in the emission of green house gases, national development strategies continue to be inspired by the perception of competitive disadvantage. It is dangerous to have such incoherence for long time as the assessments of climate scientists are too compelling. Speaking on the occasion of a meeting to the launch the full report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on the impacts of global warming, Professor Martin Parry, a climate scientist with MET office in UK and co-chairman of the working group for the report said, “We are all used to talking about the impact of these changes coming in the lifetime of our children and grand children. Now we know that it is us.” He added that politicians had wasted a decade in focussing on ways to cut emissions, and had woken up recently to the need to adapt. He felt that “mitigation has got all the attention, but we cannot mitigate out of this problem. We have now a choice between a damaged world and a severely damaged world”. (The Hindu 20 September 2007)
The hurdle can be seen through assessing the levels of convergence for the various agencies and their functioning. While there are calls for higher rates of growth, they are not assessed in the light of the demands of ecological sustainability. Even the promotion of indexes such as “sustainability index” is not getting the required attention and it has been left to the discretion of the nations. There are evidences of lack of interagency cooperation and United National Development Programme (UNDP) appears to be working against the mandate of United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Environment assessments /ministries are slighted for benefiting ecologically hostile proposals/ policies. More often than not considerations of ecological sustainability are ignored for sanctioning ecologically hostile projects. This is evident from the sanction of Special Economic Zones despite the violent and non-violent resistance of farmers in India as they did not want to give up on their only source of ecologically sustainable livelihoods through farming. Committee for Campaign on National Himalayan Policy for the ecologically fragile Himalayan region in India has been calling for redefinition of development policy.
Therefore there is a need to institute a governance framework that is both ecologically safe and socially inclusive with reference to poor, old, children and women, ethnic and religious groups residing both in rural and urban habitats.
Labour League Foundation along with several youth led organisations considers the need for establishing ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance with the following features:
1.A governance that is cognizant of the needs of poor, rights of farmers and villages to ecologically sustainable livelihoods and habitats
2.Governance that eliminates fictitious inflationary money and usurious loans created from thin air and responsible for expansion of ecologically hostile habitats
3. Governance that promotes pious and ecologically safe consumption and production pattern
4.A government that plans for ecologically safe disaster free future for all
5.Governance that ensure ecologically safe distribution of natural resources
6.Governance that works for the interests of all
7.Governance that ensures policy making for the rights of children, future generations and poor
.
Diagram-4
Represents the key features of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance
Youth strategies
1.Multiplication of carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) across the cities and villages
These discussions initiated by youth and community elders in the neighbourhood where they gather for collective prayer, discussions and other social engagements. The recommendations of the discussions and simultaneous action compiled at various levels will be presented in the form of a memorandum to the local and world leader gathered in various summits and events accelerating the generation of ecologically safe survival and development policies and multiplication of ecologically safe survival policies. Local impacts will be generated through transformation of the leisure use pattern, consumption pattern, production systems ensuring minimisation of emission of green house gases and galvanising mass communication strategies for reduction in the personal contribution to the green house gases. The discussions on the urgency of reducing green house gases lead to the transformation of personal level consumption patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance (CEASIG), a Delhi based organisation believes that personal responses are critical for transformation of the consumption patterns. Unsustainable consumption patterns can be halted with the personal responses. Personal responses are always part of the global responses. Carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) will multiply ecologically safe responses across the urban and rural areas.
2.Multiplication of ecologically safe responses through promotion of green journalism
Production of analytical and advisory outputs through journalists is critical and they are one of the major stakeholders in shaping the opinions, consumption patterns. Journalists writing on lifestyle can substantially influence the consumption pattern of people in the urban areas. They can help in shaping the tastes and defining the choices. Journalists are important is generating democratic consensus for halting unsustainable consumption patterns. In our times, journalists play a very critical and sometimes they are responsible for defining the social, cultural and political trends. Youth organisations call for securing the future of villages, children and future generations with ecologically sustainable habitats, consumption patterns while ensuring inter-species justice.
3.Catalysing green politics
Labour league Foundation and Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations globally will be supporting the process for open and transparent politics for instilling the importance of ecologically safe green ideals. Youth organisations will be organising meetings with the representatives of the various media organisations and political parties and seek inclusion of ecological considerations in editorial policies and election manifestoes. Media organisations need to be visionary organisations and help in the preparation for an emerging future bereft of petro-modern consumption, transport, habitat and production systems.
4.Transformation of leisure use patterns
Youth organisations and youth wish to realise the millennium development goals for eliminating the unsustainable consumption patterns and wish to do so through suggesting transformation of the leisure use pattern. Suggestions for adoption of faith based measures that are common across the religious texts need to be taken seriously as part of global cultural commons. As indicated through the diagrammatic representation of the impact of adoption of faith based measures, youths call for generating interfaith consensus for acting simultaneously for transforming the leisure use patterns.
5.Calculation of ecological footprints, eliminating ecological rucksacks, returning to the ecologically sustainable habitats of the past for securing the ecological safe future of children and future generations
Youth call for dissemination of the practice of measuring ecological footprints for getting the desired actions for reducing the number of decisions involving emission of green house gases. Similarly, awareness on the loss of rocks due to excessive mining is critical for eliminating the amount of ecological losses. It is critical to value the conventional housing designs that use mud, grass, bamboo and wood. The definition of poverty considering the possession of adobe dwellings as a sign of poverty needs to be revised.
6.Ecological Audit of the consumption processes and patterns
The ecological audit is a concept proposed by Dr.Muhammad Mukhtar Alam, the chairman of Labour League Foundation
http://muhammad_mukhtar_alam.tigblog.org .This needs to be used along with the calculation of ecological footprints, environment audit/ green audit for assessing the impact of various decision and consumption patterns. Globalisation of the ecological audit at all levels is needed for supporting ecologically sustainable consumption patterns. This is important for realising the millennium development goals for environment sustainability by the year 2015. It is proposed that reports on sustainability index are incorporated in the formulation of the ecologically safe development policy.
7.Ecological Audit of the production systems / patterns
Production processes need to be assessed for ecological sustainability. There are ecologically sustainable and unsustainable production processes. The workshops with corporations interested in realising the millennium development goals will be conducted for getting in the changes in production processes. Youths believe based on the predictions on the oil reserves that Petro-modern production systems do not have a long future. Reducing energy demand for ecologically unsustainable production, consumption patterns is critical for halting the expansion of deserts and regularisation of rainfalls.
8.Ecological Audit of the transport systems / patterns
Renewable resource based transport systems are sustainable and non-renewable resource based transport systems are not sustainable. Ecological Audit of the transport systems needs to be encouraged for all organisations and ministries dealing with transport. Minimising / Eliminating travel is critical for ecologically sustainable habitats. We need to prepare for the end of petro-modern age.
9.Ecological Audit of the leisure use patterns-
There are leisure use patterns that do not use green house gas producing fossil fuels and there are leisure use patterns that are based on renewable resources and that does not involve consumption of fossil fuels. Workshop with the neighbourhood discussion leaders and resident welfare associations needs to be conducted for necessary transformation of leisure use patterns. Children, youths and elders need to be encouraged to adopt faith based measures for relaxation and stress busting. There are several studies that have demonstrated the impact of prayer and meditation on stress levels. Ecological audit of the leisure engagements need to be supported for getting the desired response for reduction in the emission of green house gases through transformation of leisure use patterns.
10.Interfaith dialogue for addressing the climate change, farmer’s suicides, and social security for workers in unorganized sector and transforming finance sector
Appreciation of the common commands for prayer, donation, compassion, charity and prohibition of usury, adultery, and homosexuality is needed with wider dissemination of the same. Adoption of these commands addresses the challenge of climate change, ecologically hostile usurious system, AIDS and so on. Inter-faith dialogue will ensure generation of responses across the faith groups. Delhi has a vibrant culture of interfaith dialogue. Sant Rajinder Singh of Sawan Kripal Ashram has been conducting the same for many years. Youth organisation need to work independently or in collaboration with faith based organisations for generating more forums of interfaith dialogue.
11.National/ regional/ city/ village based conventions on Inter Faith common responses for addressing the climate change-
Governments need to be encouraged for holding national conventions for generating consensus for adoption of faith based measures for addressing the climate change. There are cultural responses for fighting the atheistic neo-liberal cultural trends emanating from Europe and copied by youth in the name of globalisation and modernity. National Convention will address the issue of climate change through adopting the interfaith commons while preserving religious diversity and ecologically sustainable dietary, sartorial, linguistic diversities.
12.Carbon neutral Youth colloquiums / meetings / Majlis-e-Naujawan/ Yuva Harit Bharat Sabha/../../
Youths propose globalisation of local efforts for contributing in the mitigation of the impacts of climate change. Governments recognise the critical role of youths as more and more organisations led by youths are involved in consultation. It is suggested that Green youth forums with vernacular names need to be formed and discussions be held with active government support for getting the desired response pattern for halting the expansion of unsustainable consumption pattern and leisure use pattern through adoption of faith based measures.
Conclusion:
Imagining the responses of the weaker species in the face of man made onslaughts on the non-renewable resources , many youths across the world recognise the threats represented through the expression of anguish of the billions of poor who are angry, dispossessed and seeking an end to the process of non-renewable resource based usurious finance fuelled expansion of consumption and production pattern that is causing serious loss of livelihood for millions across the Earth and call upon all the governments, civil society organisations, corporations engaged in ecologically hostile production processes to boycott the ecologically hostile usurious finance and prevent further loss of ecologically sustainable habitats that are an immediate outcome of the expansion of ecologically hostile non-renewable resource based habitats. Nations need to compete in establishing the models of ecologically safe economy, polity and culture. Youth of the world are ready to become a leader along with Muslims, Greens and men and women of the world who wish to halt the political expansion of the atheistic neo-liberal ideology that is responsible for exacerbating the ecological distress demonstrated through the increased incidence of drought and expansion of deserts causing suffering for millions. Adaptation is the weakest response and youths call for halting the negative impacts of climate change. Nothing is impossible.

ROLLE von Jugend in der MINDERUNG DER AUSDEHNUNG DER DÜRRE UND DIE EXPANSION DER WÜSTEN THROUHG ANHALTEN, die VORBEI KLIMA-ÄNDERUNG ADRESSIEREN UMWANDELN DER ÖKOLOGISCH UNHALTBAREN VERBRAUCH, PRODUKTION UND TRANSPORT-MUSTER

Dürren und Desertification als Auswirkung der Klimaänderung
Dürren sind eine Ursache des Interesses in allem Teil der Welt für Jahrhunderte gewesen. Es gibt Hinweise für das selbe in den heiligen Texten wie dem heiligen Torah, die Bibel und dem heiligen Qur'. Yusuf/Joseph, der jüngste Sohn von Yaqoob/Jacob, der Kurier von Allah/von Gott hat notiert, den König von Ägypten für das Vorbereiten für die Dürrejahre auf der Grundlage von einen Traum beraten zu haben, den der König zum ehemaligen Gefangenen sah und erwähnte, der mit Joseph lebt (Frieden ist nach ihm). König fungierte nach der Deutung seines Traums, der von Joseph zur Verfügung gestellt wurde (Frieden ist nach ihm) und für 7 Jahre der Dürre, der vorbereitet war. Ähnlich ist Desertification ein Prozeß gewesen, der als einer des Prozesses notiert worden ist, der eingeschaltet in den verschiedenen Teilen der Welt gewesen ist. Dürren werden durch das Fehlen Regen oder unzulänglichem Regen gekennzeichnet, der für Verlust der Getreide oder des unzulänglichen Getreideergebnisses verantwortlich ist, die ein ernstes Interesse für Nahrung verursachen. Desertification wird mit Verlust der landwirtschaftlichen Lebensräume verbunden. Der Verlust des Ackerlandes, Waldabdeckung ist- ein Resultat von globalisation der Prozesse der industriellen Industrieproduktion, die auf nicht erneuerbare Betriebsmittel gegründeten Betriebsmitteln basieren. Klimaänderung ist ein Resultat des globalisation der nicht erneuerbares Hilfsmittel gegründeten städtischen Lebensräume. Dürre ist, unter anderen Faktoren, die für Bodenverminderung verantwortlich sind. Es ist auch hergestellt worden, daß Desertification den Effekt der grünen Hausgasemissionen erhöht. Es gibt folglich eine Relation der Ursache und des Effektes zwischen klimatischer änderung und Desertification.
Der Fokus des Jugendposition Papiers auf Dürre und Desertification ist folglich auf dem folgenden:
1. Einschätzung von Antworten zur Klimaänderung werden, 2
gebildet. Einschätzungen der Instrumente für das Abschwächen der Auswirkungen von Klimata,
3. die Hürden, die in der Implementierung der Kyoto Protokollemission gegenübergestellt werden, zielt
4. Begrenzungen in der Entwicklung Strategie und dem Antrag für ökologisch stützbare Entwicklung Strategie
5. Verlangen Sie Annahme des ökologisch sicheren und sozial einschließlichen Regierungsgewaltrahmens für ökologisch sustainability und sozial Billigkeit
6. Erfinderischer Glaube gründete Strategien
7. Jugend-Strategien
Ändern Sie im Klima mit Aufstieg in der Temperatur von Masse, änderung in den Niederschlagmustern wird verursacht wegen der Emission der grünen Hausgase, die die Temperatur von Masse, da die Menge der grünen erzeugten Hausgase viel mehr ist als die Kapazität der grünen Abdeckung für das Aufsaugen aufwerfen. Auswirkungen der Klimaänderung werden überall über den Staatsgrenzen hinaus geglaubt. Es gibt einige notierte Beweise, das Nationen veranlaßt hat, auf der Herausforderung globalen wärmenden .UN zu nehmen, das, zwischenstaatliche Verkleidung auf Klimaänderung Sitzung und Überlegen auf der Ausgabe gewesen ist. Es gibt einige nationale Antworten und internationale Vereinbarungen. Vor kurzem China und US hat Vereinbarung ausgedrückt, auf Klimaänderung zu arbeiten. Vom APEC Gipfel in Sydney bei Gelegenheit sprechen, Australien Herr. Hu Jintao behielt bei, daß „die Nationen Rahmenvereinbarung die Hauptführung für die internationalen Bemühungen bleiben sollte“, Klimaänderung zu adressieren“.
Der vierte Einschätzung Report der zwischenstaatlichen Verkleidung auf Klima-änderung (IPCC), das die weitreichenden Konsequenzen hervorhob, die das globale Wärmen würden haben über der Welt fortsetzten, hat frischen Antrieb zum Finden der Lösung zum Problem gegeben. Das Gipfeltreffen der Achtergruppe industrialisierte die Länder (G8) stattgefunden in Deutschland im Monat von Juni 2007 damit einverstanden ist, neue Initiativen für Kollektivtätigkeit durch reiche Nationen und schnell wachsende Entwicklungsländer auszustoßen, um Klimaänderung zu bekämpfen. Seines vierten Einschätzung Reports hatte das IPCC, der internationale Körper, der die Aufgabe des Wiegens des wissenschaftlichen Beweises auf Klimaänderung hat, gezeigt auf endgültigen Beweis, daß globale atmosphärische Konzentration des Schlüsselgewächshauses wie Kohlendioxyd gast, „sich deutlich resultierend aus menschlichen Tätigkeiten seit 1750 erhöht“. Diese Gase schlossen die Hitze der Masse ein, die anders heraus in Raum ausgestrahlt sein würde. Wenn die Anhäufung der Gewächshausgase und das resultierende Wärmen des Planeten ungeprüftes wurden fortsetzen gelassen, muß die Menschlichkeit zusammen einige Konsequenzen gegenüberstellen. Dürren und Desertification gehören zu den Auswirkungen der Klimaänderung. Das Position Papier konzentriert auf die Herausforderungen und bietet Lösungen für das Anhalten der Auswirkungen der Klimaänderung durch Annahme von Massen einschließlich die Glaube gegründeten persönlichen Antworten für Umwandlung der ökologisch feindlichen Verbrauch, Produktion und Freizeitgebrauchmuster an.
Fortschritt-bis jetzt
Lose Seminare und Konferenzen sind für das Adressieren der globalen Herausforderung organisiert worden. Es gibt Kyoto Protokoll-Emissionziele, für die nationale Strategien geplant worden sind. Das Kyoto Protokoll, das formal als UNO Rahmen-Vereinbarungen über Klima-änderung bekannt ist, ist nicht durch einige der wichtigen Nationen bestätigt worden. US und Australien bestätigen nicht das Protokoll, da sie Vorstellungen des konkurrierenden Nachteils haben. Es gibt Vereinbarungen für das Verringern der Emissionen bis zum dem Jahr 2020 und 2050. Besteht eine vibrant Mobilisierung der Zivilgesellschaft und Mobilisierung der Jugendgruppen. Einige Gruppen arbeiten für die Politikbefürwortung für das Einführen der verbindlichen Ziele für die Emission der grünen Hausgase. Besteht auch eine dynamische Politikbefürwortung für FORSCHUNG UND in der auswechselbaren Energie, damit es viel der gegründeten Energie des auswechselbaren Hilfsmittels für das Ersetzen der nicht erneuerbaren Energie gibt. Die grünen Parteien, die in mehr als 88 Ländern bestehen, verlangen Wiedereinbau für das Gewächshaus, das gegründete Energiequellen des Fossilbrennstoffes mit auswechselbarer Energie erzeugt.
Zwischenstaatliche Verkleidung UNO auf Klima-änderung ist Nobelpreis zusammen mit Robert Al Gore für das Arbeiten auf der Klimaänderung zugesprochen worden. Der Norweger-Nobel Ausschuß zitierte die Empfänger „, damit ihre Bemühungen Grundlagen für die Masse aufbauen und verbreiten grösseres Wissen über synthetische Klimaänderung und legen, die erforderlich sind, solch einer änderung entgegenzuwirken“. Herr. Al Gore reagierte auf das Zitieren sagend, daß „wir eine wirklich planetarische Dringlichkeit gegenüberstellen: die Klimaänderung ist nicht eine politische Ausgabe, ist es eine moralische und geistige Herausforderung zu aller Menschlichkeit“. Mr.R.K. Pachaury, das den Preis mit Robert Al Gore teilt, während Vorsitzender der zwischenstaatlichen Verkleidung auf Klimaänderung reagierte, daß der Nobel Friedenspreis Richtung der Dringlichkeit dem Kampf gegen das globale Wärmen hinzufügen würde. IPCC, aufgestellt 1988, ist tasked mit dem Geben Entscheidungsträgern einer Zusammenfassung des neuesten Wissens über Klimaänderung. Gavin Edwards Kopf des Klimas und Energie wirbt, Greenpeace, das sprechend international ist, über was die Regierungen über der Welt tun können, um das Problem abzuschwächen unterstrichen die Notwendigkeit, Bezeichnungen des Protokolls nachzuprüfen, das die unterschiedene Verantwortlichkeit für die verschiedenen Nationen bestätigt, die auf die Klimaänderung reagieren. Er unterstreicht die Notwendigkeit an den Entwicklungsländern, alles notwendige zu tun und die Fehler der entwickelten Länder nicht zu wiederholen - „nichtstaatliche Organisationen haben wirklich auf die industrialisierten Nationen konzentriert, die Anteil des Löwes des Anpackens des Klimas tun müssen, ändern-daß frei ist. Aber was auch frei ist, ist das Entwicklungsländer wie Indien und China fortfahren ständig, mit dem Geschäft als übliche alte Artentwicklung Annäherung sich zu entwickeln. Sie konnten die gleichen Fehler wiederholen, die der Westen in den letzten Dekaden gemacht hat. Und, wenn Indien, China und andere Länder fortfahren, jene Fehler zu machen, dann unabhängig davon was der Westen tut, um die Klimaänderung anzupacken, ihn seien Sie“ unmöglich.
Die Instrumente, die für das Abschwächen der Klimaänderung Energiesparenden
Technologien befürwortet werden, werden für die Minderung des Verbrauchs der Energie entwickelt. CFL Lampen werden als Teil der Energiesparenden Dienstprogramme und der Ausrüstungen für das Beitragen in der Verkleinerung der grünen Hausgasemissionen gefördert. Dort auch Ziele für Wiedereinbau nicht erneuerbares Energie throng der auswechselbaren Energie. Grüne Partei im maßstäblichen Wiedereinbau des Deutschland Suchvorganges der nicht erneuerbaren Energie durch auswechselbare Energie bis zum dem Jahr 2020. Es gibt Verträge, die zwar unterzeichnet sie werden nicht fromm gefolgt gewesen sind. Mehr Finanzierung wird für Forschung für globalizing gegründete Dienstleistungen und Dienstprogramme der auswechselbaren Energie gesucht. Verbindliche Ziele auf Emissionverkleinerung ist nicht dort, wie von der aspirational Empfehlung des APEC Gipfels offensichtlich ist, das vor kurzem in Sydney als Teil der Prozesse für die UNO Rahmenvereinbarung über die in Bali gefolgert wird im Monat von Dezember 2007 gehalten zu werden Klimaänderung. Es gibt die Aktionspläne leer von verbindlicher Politik und von Ziel für die Emission der grünen Hausgase.
Wenn die Anhäufung der Gewächshausgase und des resultierenden Wärmens des Planeten ungeprüftes wurde fortsetzen gelassen, haben wir zusammen Konsequenzen in dem Verlust der ökologisch stützbaren Lebensunterhalt ausgedrückt, Lebensräume, Missernten, unangemessene Verteilung der ökologisch sicheren Lebensräume über der Welt. Es ist weithin bekannt, daß globale ökonomische Hochkonjunktur grüne Hausgasemissionen mit den überhaupt erweiternden nicht erneuerbare Energie gegründeten städtische Lebensraum-, Verbrauchs-, Produktions- und Transportmustern beschleunigt.
Probleme in den Strategien
dort sind Strategien, die mit globaler Anerkennung der Notwendigkeit, grüne Hausemissionen zu verringern gekennzeichnet worden sind. Allerdings erhalten sie besiegt, während Ziele mit Widersprechenresultaten und -anblicken eingestellt werden. Z.B. betrachtet GDP Berechnung nicht die Auswirkung auf Klima und ökologische Kosten und ist folglich nicht folglich Faktoren in der Berechnung des Bruttoinlandsprodukts. Enorme Kosten auf Klimas werden nach der überzeugung ignoriert, daß alle Betriebsmittel für den Gebrauch sind und ihre Nichtanwendung eine Anzeige der niedrigen technologischen Entwicklung ist. Einen ökologisch stützbaren Lebensraum gilt nicht als wertvoll mit ökologisch stützbaren Lebensunterhalt. Der vierteljährliche Bericht über die Zunahme des GDP nicht Faktor die Zunahme der grünen Hausgasemissionen. 7. Erzeugung Initiative in Kanada mit Wohlmaß Tat in einer Initiative für den Faktor der ökologischen Kosten und Kosten Frauen bearbeiten zu Hause
www.sustainwellbeing.net. Sie glauben, daß Berechnung des Bruttoinlandsprodukts die Kosten auf dem diesem Klima unsere Tätigkeiten im Geschenk einschließen muß haben
www.sustainwellbeing.net. Mike Nickerson und Joe Jordon haben für Jahre geworben.
Politische Parteien fahren fort, durch kurzfristige Anblicke angespornt zu werden und es ist nicht durchaus ihre Störung. SIMPOL arbeitet mit den Wählern global für das Beeinflussen der simultanen Annahme von politischen Richtlinien. Es gibt Notwendigkeit, immer mehr simultane Klagen auf ruhige Tätigkeiten, Entscheidungen, Wahlen global sicherzustellen, die in der ökologischen zusammensicherheit beitragen. Politische Parteien müssen für das Stützen der politischen Richtlinien erzogen werden, die Schutz der ökologisch stützbaren Lebensunterhalt und der Lebensräume sicherstellen. Arbeitsliga-Grundlage, Sufi Vertrauen und CEASIG als Teil des nationalen Forums der Waldarbeiter und Wald bevölkeren das Stützen der Rechte des Landes in ihren traditionellen Lebensräumen durch das Löschen der Auswirkung der Kolonialgesetzgebungen, die sie ihre Rechte zu den Gehöft- und Landwirtschaftsländern beraubten. Grüne Parteien werden über die ökologisch sicheren Ausgaben betroffen, aber ihre Wähler sind wenige. Die meisten politischen Parteien werden mit Ausgaben betroffen, die zur Auslese und zur mittleren Kategorie im sofortigen Geschenk anziehender sind.
Eine andere Haupthürde, die in der Weise des Erhaltens der globalen Antworten für das Abschwächen der Klimaänderung erfahren wird, ist anhaltendes Marketing der intensiven Muster Verbrauch des Fossilbrennstoffes, Designs der städtischen Lebensräume, Entwicklung Paradigma, konkurrierende Nationalismus für das Suchen der Markierungen der intensiven Lebensstile des Fossilbrennstoffes, Abwertung der ökologisch stützbaren Landwirtschaft Verbrauch Muster. Besteht anhaltende politische Unterstützung für kulturelle Produkte und Prozesse, die zur nationalen und globalen ökologischen Sicherheit feindlich sind. Während es Masse für ökologische Auswirkung Klima-Auswirkung Einschätzungen aber gibt, dann besteht deutlich Fehlen Interessen für das Adressieren der Wurzelursachen der ökologischen und synthetischen Unfälle. Marginalisation der Glaube gegründeten Jugendgruppen durch das atheistische intelligentsia fährt fort, Problem zu sein, das adressiert werden muß. Sie müssen an Bord geholt werden.
Das ökologisch sichere nationale Strategie Entwicklung Paradigma, das
das oben genannte betrachtet, wird es vorgeschlagen, daß ein ökologisch sicheres nationales Strategie Entwicklung Paradigma die folgenden Eigenschaften enthält:
1. Marketing des ökologisch sicheren Verbrauchs, Produktion, Freizeitgebrauch patterns
2. Entmutigen ökologisch feindlicher Verbrauch und Produktion Muster
3. Förderung des Nachbarschaft Handels und der Ausbildung und des Entmutigens ökologisch feindlichen Handels und der Ausbildung
4. Ökologisch stützbare Landwirtschaft
5. Förderung ökologisch stützbarer Transport Systeme
6. Glaube gründete Masse für Umwandlung von Freizeitgebrauchmuster
7. Förderung und Schutz ökologisch stützbarer Lebensräume
8. ökologisch sicheres zinsloses und freies Finanzsystem 9
der Schuld. Ökologisch sichere Modelle des Erfolges
in Richtung zu einer Lösung
Verringerung der Emission der grünen Hausgase durch die Förderung von Massen und von Entscheidung Mustern, die moderieren, der Verbrauch der Dienstleistungen und der Dienstprogramme, die auf dem Verbrauch des grünen Hauses Fossilienbrennstoffe ausstrahlend basieren, ist daß alle kritisch, die mit dem Schützen der Menschlichkeit von den negativen Auswirkungen der Klimaänderung betroffen werden, setzt die Ausdehnung der Dürre herab und hält die Expansion der Wüsten an und verhindert den Verlust der ökologisch stützbaren Lebensräume und der Lebensunterhalt. In Betracht der Dringlichkeiten wird es argumentiert, daß Annahme des Glaubens Masse für umwandelnde Freizeitgebrauchmuster wird betrachtet auf Priorität gründete. Folgendes Diagramm zeigt die Auswirkung und die Relationen, denen Annahme von Gebet und von Meditation 5 Zeit Tages auf den Verbrauch Mustern festsetzt.
Die Männer und Frauen, die den Befehlen für Gebet und Meditation 5 folgen, setzt Zeit Tages sind nicht wahrscheinlich, sich Verbrauch der Lose Abendpfosten-Arbeit Verpflichtungen hinzugeben fest, die Langstreckenspielräume erfordern, da diese in der Befolgung des Befehls für Gebet /salah /meditation /yoga an den festgesetzten Stunden behinderen würde. Es kann leicht gesehen werden, daß Annahme dieses Befehls Umwandlung der Lose Verbrauchs der intensiven Freizeit des Fossilbrennstoffes wie Gehen zum Stab und zu tanzenden Hallen sicherstellt. Dieses kann zusammen mit einigen anderen persönlichen und Gemeinschaftantworten für das Verringern der Emission der grünen Häuser angenommen werden. Glaube gegründete Antworten scheinen, wirkungsvoller zu sein und sie müssen gefördert werden, was dieses anbetrifft es keine Notwendigkeit gibt, zusätzliche Bemühungen zu bilden. Verbindung von `Konservatismus' scheint, zu sein mehr einer der Antwort, die einige Männer und Frauen für Kommunikation der Glaube gegründeten Masse haben können. Aber dann ist es wichtig, den Wert der Annahme des Glaube gegründeten Masses für ökologische Wirksamkeit, Sicherheit, Eignung, Erwünschtheit und Gültigkeit zu sehen. Glaube gegründete Antworten sind allgemein und sie müssen gerade für ihren Beitrag im ökologischen Wohl auf den persönlichen, Gemeinschaft, Sozial-, nationalen und globalen Niveaus gefördert werden. Es gibt ein dringendes Bedürfnis am selben.
Persönlicher Glaube gründete Warte
gebet 5mal ein Tag für das umwandelnde Freizeitgebrauchmuster, das erkennt, daß Freizeitgebrauchmuster eine der gesellschaftlichen Schlüsselverpflichtungen sind-, die die meisten den gegründeten Dienstleistungen und Dienstprogrammen des Fossilbrennstoffes verbrauchen. Befehl für Gebet ist über den frommen Texten allgemein, obwohl er am vorstehendsten durch die Männer und Frauen geübt aussieht, die den Kommunikationen von Muhammad folgen, geglaubt, um der letzte Kurier zu sein von Muslims (die Männer und Frauen, die beim Willen des Gottes/des Allahs. einreichen. /.
Wie Annahme des Gebets umwandeln, besuchen die Verbrauch Muster und Freizeitgebrauchmustermänner und -frauen
des ökologisch feindlichen Spielraums intensive, die Gebet (salah auf Arabisch) üben nicht tanzende Hallen und Stäbe, während sie mehr über das Beten in der Zeit betroffen werden. Gebet morgens, Nachmittag, nach Sonnenuntergang und dann Gebet nach Abendessen in den Gebet- und Meditationhallen der Ausgangsmoscheekirchen/synagogue//im Arbeit Platz läßt sie zum Fokus springen auf nur der notwendigen Arbeit. Gebet und Erinnerung für sie ist ein Mittel des Entspannung, des und so weiter sprengenden Druckes, der Sozialisierung und der Kommunion. S/he Konzentrate auf den wesentlichen Angelegenheiten in der Nachbarschaft und den Obacht für sie, wie durch die Kuriere befohlen. Zweitens enthalten sich sie vom exhibitionist Verbrauch, der dem Befehl des Gottes Allah für das Transgressing nicht den Grenz-/Begrenzungensatz von God/von Allah folgt. For dressing they believe that the best dress is that of piety determined by the extent to which they follow the commands of God/ Allah. They abstain from adultery following the commands against the same as they believe in upholding the best standards of piety. They seek forgiveness from God/Allah for the sinful deeds executed intentionally or unintentionally. Thus adoption of prayer 5 times a day works as a guard for all the behaviours that have been prohibited in the holy books across the religions.
They donate out of the sustenance for poor following the commands for donation/zakat, khairat, fitra and sadaqah/daan.. They do not waste and thus observe the best of the ideals communicated through the slogan of ‘waste not, want not’. They indulge in ecologically safe consumption and believe in moderation in all matters. The middle path communicated through the commands of God/Allah is best ensured through the adoption of compulsory prayers 5 times a day. Youth, Men and men following the commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru for remembrance of Ishwar are likely to have the similar best behaviour patterns that are ecologically safe. Their average ecological footprints are likely to be very low. This needs to be established with communication of more ecological audits/ water audits/green audits/ energy audits/ paper audits/ food intake audits- a series of audits that youth, men and women following the command of God/Allah perform or they are supposed to perform. They ensure more and more pious behaviour, consumption and production patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations call for generation of more pious responses as they are directly linked to reduction in the emission of green house gases .
Inter faith commons
The inter faith commons need to be communicated and disseminated for not only global integration but also for addressing the critical ecological challenge that we as part of humanity face . Global warming is no longer a concern of a particular nations but it is an issue that we all as part of humanity face. Inter faith commons bring to the fore the understanding that we have common monotheistic content and messengers who upheld the best standards of justice, communication, and struggle in their life time and fought men and women after utilizing the best means of persuasion. Shiv Sankalp Taru has a very interesting verse that needs to be brought in light for men and women who have special affinity for the Sanskrit textual tradition. The timings are very much common to the timing followed by the Muslims. It is a command that needs to be followed by all. Muslim youths, men and women already follow that following the communication of God/BRAHMM communicated through the last messenger while believing that commands were communicated through all the messengers earlier in various languages and lands. The commands followed by Muslims are the commands that were communicated through the earlier messengers were sent to all the lands to people who spoke various languages following the related verse in the holy Qur’an. Commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru “Ishwar smarate panch awasare” calls for remembrance of Ishwar who was neither born nor gave on five occasions in a day, every day-all the 365/366 days of the year.
Command for establishing prayer at the appointed hours exists in the Holy Qur’an. According to one count there are command for establishing salah and give zakat more that 54 times in the holy Qur’an. There are commands in Bible and Torah. Buddhist monotheistic tradition calls for fighting the ‘mara’ in the Dhammapada and the atheistic understanding calls for adoption of middle path in all the matters. Practice of meditation leads to transformation of consumption patterns. Gurus in the Sikhism and Jain traditions are examples of austere life filled with prayer and penance. Guru Nanak was a practitioner of prayer and remembrance and he is revered for that and followed by millions of Sikhs around the world. For Sikhs, it is not impossible to follow the best practices of Guru Nanak who established himself as a role model for millions of Sikhs around the world. Following table shows the interfaith commons that can be adopted by all. This is being proposed considering the absence of coherent strategy in the atheistic post-modern discourse and contingencies of the global emergencies that must be addressed.

How an ecologically sustainable / contended reverent economy is built up with happiness for all
Ecological economists are currently debating issues with the Washington consensus economist and fighting the TINA (there is no alternative) syndrome .Noam Chomsky believes in the alternative economic order and so do youths of the world who through their calls are wanting to see the change and taking up non-violent advocacy and communication for the needful change . He also believes in the alternative political and cultural order .Binary economists are calling for abolition of interest charged on the loans as they believe creation of money from thin air in the books of the bankers is responsible for lots of ecologically hostile and socially inequitable practices in consumption, production and distribution and leisure use patterns
www.binaryeconomics.org .
Elimination of usury, fiat money propelling the ecologically hostile growth of urban habitats is being pointed out to be a critical factor in building a socially inclusive and ecologically safe economy. Similarly, debt free credit /interest free loans are being promoted for zero debt distressed suicides and bankruptcies.
Another major feature of contented and ecological sustainable economy is its capacity and intent for the protection of ecologically sustainable habitats with renewable resource based life support systems. It is simply impossible to envisage sustainability of non-renewable based transport systems in perpetuity. Search for nuclear energy and intense research activity in the renewable resource based energy is a proof for this. It needs to be noted that while nuclear energy in the short run appears to be carbon neutral, but in the long run, this is also not sustainable as there are limited resources for running the reactors. It is clear that resources such as uranium and thorium are not for all the time in the future. Therefore, the only solution is to decelerate and regulate the consumption of non-renewable resource based services and utilities through instituting an ecologically sustainable economy with the following features:
1.Debt free money and interest free loans with public control on the creation of money
2.Rights to renewable resource based habitats
3.Ecologically sustainable leisure use patterns
4.Distributive justice for renewable resource based livelihoods
5.Freedom from worried of energy crisis
6.Protection of Renewable resource based livelihoods
Freedom from worries of energy crisis affecting energy intensive transportation systems and habitats is an essential constituent of an ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy .At present most of the planners are concerned with the increasing energy requirements and for this some countries are ready to sacrifice their ideals and foundations of foreign policy. Left parties in India along with other parties have been vociferously opposing the loss of independence in the foreign policy of India. It is important to ensure sustainability for the renewable resource based life support systems and for this it is important to halt the loss of ecologically sustainable habitats and agricultural production methodologies. It is not possible to ensure sustainability for habitat designs that are based on unsustainable energy sources. Therefore, it is not possible to ensure sustainability for skyscraper laden urban habitats. Urban areas with energy intensive shopping malls need to be brought within ecologically sustainable limits. For this to happen, it is important to support adoption of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance framework.
Youths as drivers of change processes and communication for transition to ecologically safe life support systems locally and globally
Creating debt free money and ensuring interest free loans in not quite easy as that requires change of hearts and minds of men and women governing the various institutions who find the proposals difficult. Success of the proposals for ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy and polity requires multiplication of men and women who uphold the criterion of piety. It is important that the pious men and women across the world prohibiting peacefully what is wrong and prescribing what is right take charge of the governance and ensure that debt free money is created, faith based measures are adopted for mitigating the impacts of climate change. It is important to understand the need to prepare for life after death as that would impel men and women to adopt faith based measures more and more. Now, the signs of ecological distress are too compelling to avoid collective and personal actions for both mitigating and halting the impacts of climate change. Signs of ecological distress affecting the lives of billions call for taking corrective action locally and globally. Youths and corporations who are market for non-renewable energy intensive services and utilities need to be in charge. Atheistic postmodernist laissez faire regimen of cultural, political and moral governance needs to be critically reviewed as they damage the survival interests of the billions in here and now and that of future generations.
Hurdles in the way/ constraints
There are hurdles in the way for such a massive change taking place simultaneously and globally and most pernicious among the faith based notions are that of neo-liberal atheistic ideology where market and profit devoid of the concerns of eternal interests of mankind are permitted to have full freedom. It is dominance of atheistic neo-liberal ideology that prevents men and women from adopting the faith based pious measures for addressing the global and local challenges. Media channels such as MTV with adoring participation of youths indoctrinated in the atheistic visions of good life are busy in creating models of copy cat consumption and leisure use patterns globally with local vernacular channels following in line. Starting with English music content in 90’s now MTV has more of Hindi songs and dance forms with direct message for youths for copying the ecologically leisure use pattern including partying ,dancing and drinking of intoxicating drinks.
The second hurdle is the lack on coherent national and international policy with respect to addressing the climate change. While Kyoto protocol emission target call for reduction in the emission of green house gases, national development strategies continue to be inspired by the perception of competitive disadvantage. It is dangerous to have such incoherence for long time as the assessments of climate scientists are too compelling. Speaking on the occasion of a meeting to the launch the full report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on the impacts of global warming, Professor Martin Parry, a climate scientist with MET office in UK and co-chairman of the working group for the report said, “We are all used to talking about the impact of these changes coming in the lifetime of our children and grand children. Now we know that it is us.” He added that politicians had wasted a decade in focussing on ways to cut emissions, and had woken up recently to the need to adapt. He felt that “mitigation has got all the attention, but we cannot mitigate out of this problem. We have now a choice between a damaged world and a severely damaged world”. (The Hindu 20 September 2007)
The hurdle can be seen through assessing the levels of convergence for the various agencies and their functioning. While there are calls for higher rates of growth, they are not assessed in the light of the demands of ecological sustainability. Even the promotion of indexes such as “sustainability index” is not getting the required attention and it has been left to the discretion of the nations. There are evidences of lack of interagency cooperation and United National Development Programme (UNDP) appears to be working against the mandate of United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Environment assessments /ministries are slighted for benefiting ecologically hostile proposals/ policies. More often than not considerations of ecological sustainability are ignored for sanctioning ecologically hostile projects. This is evident from the sanction of Special Economic Zones despite the violent and non-violent resistance of farmers in India as they did not want to give up on their only source of ecologically sustainable livelihoods through farming. Committee for Campaign on National Himalayan Policy for the ecologically fragile Himalayan region in India has been calling for redefinition of development policy.
Therefore there is a need to institute a governance framework that is both ecologically safe and socially inclusive with reference to poor, old, children and women, ethnic and religious groups residing both in rural and urban habitats.
Labour League Foundation along with several youth led organisations considers the need for establishing ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance with the following features:
1.A governance that is cognizant of the needs of poor, rights of farmers and villages to ecologically sustainable livelihoods and habitats
2.Governance that eliminates fictitious inflationary money and usurious loans created from thin air and responsible for expansion of ecologically hostile habitats
3. Governance that promotes pious and ecologically safe consumption and production pattern
4.A government that plans for ecologically safe disaster free future for all
5.Governance that ensure ecologically safe distribution of natural resources
6.Governance that works for the interests of all
7.Governance that ensures policy making for the rights of children, future generations and poor
.
Diagram-4
Represents the key features of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance
Youth strategies
1.Multiplication of carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) across the cities and villages
These discussions initiated by youth and community elders in the neighbourhood where they gather for collective prayer, discussions and other social engagements. The recommendations of the discussions and simultaneous action compiled at various levels will be presented in the form of a memorandum to the local and world leader gathered in various summits and events accelerating the generation of ecologically safe survival and development policies and multiplication of ecologically safe survival policies. Local impacts will be generated through transformation of the leisure use pattern, consumption pattern, production systems ensuring minimisation of emission of green house gases and galvanising mass communication strategies for reduction in the personal contribution to the green house gases. The discussions on the urgency of reducing green house gases lead to the transformation of personal level consumption patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance (CEASIG), a Delhi based organisation believes that personal responses are critical for transformation of the consumption patterns. Unsustainable consumption patterns can be halted with the personal responses. Personal responses are always part of the global responses. Carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) will multiply ecologically safe responses across the urban and rural areas.
2.Multiplication of ecologically safe responses through promotion of green journalism
Production of analytical and advisory outputs through journalists is critical and they are one of the major stakeholders in shaping the opinions, consumption patterns. Journalists writing on lifestyle can substantially influence the consumption pattern of people in the urban areas. They can help in shaping the tastes and defining the choices. Journalists are important is generating democratic consensus for halting unsustainable consumption patterns. In our times, journalists play a very critical and sometimes they are responsible for defining the social, cultural and political trends. Youth organisations call for securing the future of villages, children and future generations with ecologically sustainable habitats, consumption patterns while ensuring inter-species justice.
3.Catalysing green politics
Labour league Foundation and Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations globally will be supporting the process for open and transparent politics for instilling the importance of ecologically safe green ideals. Youth organisations will be organising meetings with the representatives of the various media organisations and political parties and seek inclusion of ecological considerations in editorial policies and election manifestoes. Media organisations need to be visionary organisations and help in the preparation for an emerging future bereft of petro-modern consumption, transport, habitat and production systems.
4.Transformation of leisure use patterns
Youth organisations and youth wish to realise the millennium development goals for eliminating the unsustainable consumption patterns and wish to do so through suggesting transformation of the leisure use pattern. Suggestions for adoption of faith based measures that are common across the religious texts need to be taken seriously as part of global cultural commons. As indicated through the diagrammatic representation of the impact of adoption of faith based measures, youths call for generating interfaith consensus for acting simultaneously for transforming the leisure use patterns.
5.Calculation of ecological footprints, eliminating ecological rucksacks, returning to the ecologically sustainable habitats of the past for securing the ecological safe future of children and future generations
Youth call for dissemination of the practice of measuring ecological footprints for getting the desired actions for reducing the number of decisions involving emission of green house gases. Similarly, awareness on the loss of rocks due to excessive mining is critical for eliminating the amount of ecological losses. It is critical to value the conventional housing designs that use mud, grass, bamboo and wood. The definition of poverty considering the possession of adobe dwellings as a sign of poverty needs to be revised.
6.Ecological Audit of the consumption processes and patterns
The ecological audit is a concept proposed by Dr.Muhammad Mukhtar Alam, the chairman of Labour League Foundation
http://muhammad_mukhtar_alam.tigblog.org .This needs to be used along with the calculation of ecological footprints, environment audit/ green audit for assessing the impact of various decision and consumption patterns. Globalisation of the ecological audit at all levels is needed for supporting ecologically sustainable consumption patterns. This is important for realising the millennium development goals for environment sustainability by the year 2015. It is proposed that reports on sustainability index are incorporated in the formulation of the ecologically safe development policy.
7.Ecological Audit of the production systems / patterns
Production processes need to be assessed for ecological sustainability. There are ecologically sustainable and unsustainable production processes. The workshops with corporations interested in realising the millennium development goals will be conducted for getting in the changes in production processes. Youths believe based on the predictions on the oil reserves that Petro-modern production systems do not have a long future. Reducing energy demand for ecologically unsustainable production, consumption patterns is critical for halting the expansion of deserts and regularisation of rainfalls.
8.Ecological Audit of the transport systems / patterns
Renewable resource based transport systems are sustainable and non-renewable resource based transport systems are not sustainable. Ecological Audit of the transport systems needs to be encouraged for all organisations and ministries dealing with transport. Minimising / Eliminating travel is critical for ecologically sustainable habitats. We need to prepare for the end of petro-modern age.
9.Ecological Audit of the leisure use patterns-
There are leisure use patterns that do not use green house gas producing fossil fuels and there are leisure use patterns that are based on renewable resources and that does not involve consumption of fossil fuels. Workshop with the neighbourhood discussion leaders and resident welfare associations needs to be conducted for necessary transformation of leisure use patterns. Children, youths and elders need to be encouraged to adopt faith based measures for relaxation and stress busting. There are several studies that have demonstrated the impact of prayer and meditation on stress levels. Ecological audit of the leisure engagements need to be supported for getting the desired response for reduction in the emission of green house gases through transformation of leisure use patterns.
10.Interfaith dialogue for addressing the climate change, farmer’s suicides, and social security for workers in unorganized sector and transforming finance sector
Appreciation of the common commands for prayer, donation, compassion, charity and prohibition of usury, adultery, and homosexuality is needed with wider dissemination of the same. Adoption of these commands addresses the challenge of climate change, ecologically hostile usurious system, AIDS and so on. Inter-faith dialogue will ensure generation of responses across the faith groups. Delhi has a vibrant culture of interfaith dialogue. Sant Rajinder Singh of Sawan Kripal Ashram has been conducting the same for many years. Youth organisation need to work independently or in collaboration with faith based organisations for generating more forums of interfaith dialogue.
11.National/ regional/ city/ village based conventions on Inter Faith common responses for addressing the climate change-
Governments need to be encouraged for holding national conventions for generating consensus for adoption of faith based measures for addressing the climate change. There are cultural responses for fighting the atheistic neo-liberal cultural trends emanating from Europe and copied by youth in the name of globalisation and modernity. National Convention will address the issue of climate change through adopting the interfaith commons while preserving religious diversity and ecologically sustainable dietary, sartorial, linguistic diversities.
12.Carbon neutral Youth colloquiums / meetings / Majlis-e-Naujawan/ Yuva Harit Bharat Sabha/../../
Youths propose globalisation of local efforts for contributing in the mitigation of the impacts of climate change. Governments recognise the critical role of youths as more and more organisations led by youths are involved in consultation. It is suggested that Green youth forums with vernacular names need to be formed and discussions be held with active government support for getting the desired response pattern for halting the expansion of unsustainable consumption pattern and leisure use pattern through adoption of faith based measures.
Conclusion:
Imagining the responses of the weaker species in the face of man made onslaughts on the non-renewable resources , many youths across the world recognise the threats represented through the expression of anguish of the billions of poor who are angry, dispossessed and seeking an end to the process of non-renewable resource based usurious finance fuelled expansion of consumption and production pattern that is causing serious loss of livelihood for millions across the Earth and call upon all the governments, civil society organisations, corporations engaged in ecologically hostile production processes to boycott the ecologically hostile usurious finance and prevent further loss of ecologically sustainable habitats that are an immediate outcome of the expansion of ecologically hostile non-renewable resource based habitats. Nations need to compete in establishing the models of ecologically safe economy, polity and culture. Youth of the world are ready to become a leader along with Muslims, Greens and men and women of the world who wish to halt the political expansion of the atheistic neo-liberal ideology that is responsible for exacerbating the ecological distress demonstrated through the increased incidence of drought and expansion of deserts causing suffering for millions. Adaptation is the weakest response and youths call for halting the negative impacts of climate change. Nothing is impossible.

PAPEL das juventudes em MINIMIZAR A INCIDÊNCIA DA SECA E em PARAR A EXPANSÃO DOS DESERTOS THROUHG que DIRIGEM-SE À MUDANÇA do CLIMA PERTO TRANSFORMANDO TESTES PADRÕES ECOLOGICALLY UNSUSTAINABLE DO CONSUMO, DA PRODUÇÃO E DO TRANSPORTE

As secas e o desertification como o impacto de secas da mudança
do clima foram uma causa do interesse em toda a parte do mundo por séculos. Há umas referências para o mesmo nos textos holy tais como o Torah holy, o Bible e o Qur holy'. Yusuf/Joseph, filho o mais novo de Yaqoob/Jacob, o mensageiro de Allah/deus gravou para ter recomendado o rei de Egipto para preparar-se por os anos da seca na base de um sonho que o rei visse e mencionasse ao prisioneiro anterior que vive com Joseph (a paz fosse em cima dele). O rei agiu em cima da interpretação de seu sonho fornecido por Joseph (a paz fosse em cima dele) e preparado por 7 anos da seca. Similarmente, o desertification foi um processo que fosse gravado como um do processo que estêve sobre em várias partes do mundo. As secas são marcadas pela ausência da chuva ou da chuva inadequada que é responsável para a perda das colheitas ou do rendimento inadequado da colheita que causam um interesse sério para o alimento. O Desertification é ligado com a perda de habitats agriculturais. A perda de terras agriculturais, tampa da floresta é um resultado do globalisation dos processos de produção industrial baseados recursos non-renewable em recursos baseados. A mudança do clima é um resultado do globalisation recurso non-renewable de habitats urbanos baseados. A seca é, entre outros fatores, responsáveis para a degradação do solo. Estabeleceu-se também que o desertification aumenta o efeito de emissões de gás verdes da casa. Há assim uma relação da causa e do efeito entre a mudança e o desertification climáticos.
O foco do papel da posição da juventude na seca e no desertification está conseqüentemente no seguinte:
1. A avaliação das respostas à mudança do clima está sendo feita,
2. avaliações dos instrumentos para mitigating os impactos dos climas,
3. os obstáculos enfrentados na execução da emissão do protocolo de Kyoto alvejam
4. Confinamentes na estratégia e na proposta do desenvolvimento para a estratégia ecologically sustainable 5
do desenvolvimento. Chame para o adoption da estrutura ecologically segura e social inclusiva do governance para ecologically o sustainability e social a equidade
6. A fé inovativa baseou as estratégias
7. Estratégias da juventude
Mude no clima com ascensão na temperatura da terra, mudança em testes padrões do rainfall é causado devido à emissão dos gáses verdes da casa que levantam a temperatura da terra porque a quantidade de gáses verdes da casa gerados é muito mais do que a capacidade da tampa verde para absorver. Os impactos da mudança do clima estão sendo sentidos em toda parte além dos limites nacionais. Há diversas evidências gravadas que fêz com que as nações façam exame no desafio de .UN que se aquecendo global o painel intergovernmental na mudança do clima foi reunião e deliberar na edição. Há diversos respostas nacionais e acordos internacionais. Recentemente China e ESTADOS UNIDOS. expressou o acordo trabalhar na mudança do clima. Falando na ocasião do summit de APEC em Sydney, Sr. de Austrália. Hu Jintao manteve que “a convenção de estrutura unida das nações deve remanescer a canaleta principal para os esforços internacionais” se dirigir à mudança do clima”.
O quarto relatório da avaliação do painel Intergovernmental na mudança do clima (IPCC), que emfatizou as conseqüências far-reaching que continuaram se aquecer global teriam através do mundo, deu o ímpeto fresco a encontrar a solução ao problema. A reunião de summit do grupo de oito industrialised os países (G8) prendidos em Germany no mês de junho 2007 concorda lançar iniciativas novas para a ação coletiva por nações ricas e por países tornando-se em crescimento rápido para combater a mudança do clima. Em seu quarto relatório da avaliação, o IPCC, o corpo internacional que tem a tarefa de pesar a evidência científica na mudança do clima, apontado à evidência definitive que a concentração atmosférica global da estufa chave gaseia como o dióxido de carbono “tinha aumentado marcada em conseqüência das atividades humanas desde 1750”. Estes gáses prendiam o calor da terra que de outra maneira radiated para fora no espaço. Se o acúmulo de gáses da estufa e se aquecer resultante do planeta forem permitidos continuar unchecked, o humanity coletivamente terá que enfrentar diversas conseqüências. As secas e o desertification são entre os impactos da mudança do clima. O papel da posição está focalizando nos desafios e oferece soluções para parar os impactos da mudança do clima com o adoption das medidas including as respostas pessoais baseadas fé para a transformação de testes padrões ecologically hostis do uso do consumo, da produção e do lazer.
Os lotes assim distantes
do progresso dos seminários e das conferências foram organizados dirigindo-se ao desafio global. Há os alvos da emissão do protocolo de Kyoto para que as estratégias nacionais foram planejadas. O protocolo de Kyoto sabido formalmente como convenções de estrutura dos UN na mudança do clima não foi ratificado por algumas das nações importantes. ESTADOS UNIDOS. e Austrália não está ratificando o protocolo porque têm percepções da desvantagem do competidor. Há uns acordos para reduzir as emissões pelo ano 2020 e 2050. Existe um mobilization vibrant da sociedade civil e mobilization de grupos da juventude. Diversos grupos estão trabalhando para o advocacy da política para executar os alvos obrigatórios para a emissão de gáses verdes da casa. Existe também um advocacy dinâmico da política para o R&D na energia renewable de modo que haja uma abundância da energia baseada do recurso renewable para substituir a energia non-renewable. Os partidos verdes que existem em mais de 88 países estão chamando-se para a recolocação para a estufa que gera fontes de energia baseadas do combustível fossil com energia renewable.
O painel Intergovernmental dos UN na mudança do clima foi concedido o prêmio de Nobel junto com Robert Al Gore para trabalhar na mudança do clima. O comitê de Nobel do norueguês cited os receptores “para que seus esforços construam acima e disseminate um conhecimento mais grande sobre a mudança sintética do clima e coloquem fundações para as medidas que são needed neutralizar tal mudança”. Sr. Al Gore respondeu à citação que diz que “nós enfrentamos uma emergência verdadeiramente planetária: a mudança do clima não é uma edição política, é um desafio moral e espiritual a todo o humanity”. Mr.R.K. Pachaury que compartilha do prêmio com o Robert Al Gore enquanto o presidente do painel Intergovernmental na mudança do clima respondeu que o prêmio da paz de Nobel adicionaria o sentido do urgency à luta de encontro a se aquecer global. IPCC, ajustado acima em 1988, é tasked com dar a policymakers um sumário do conhecimento o mais atrasado sobre a mudança do clima. A cabeça de Gavin Edwards do clima e a energia fazem campanha, falar internacional de Greenpeace sobre o que os governos através do mundo podem fazer para mitigate o problema indicaram a necessidade reconsider termos do protocolo que reconhece a responsabilidade diferenciada para as várias nações que respondem à mudança do clima. Indica a necessidade para os países tornando-se fazer todo o needful e não repetir os erros dos países desenvolvidos - “as organizações nongovernmental focalizaram realmente nas nações industrialised que têm que fazer a parte do leão de tackling o clima mud-que está desobstruído. Mas o que está também desobstruído é aquele países tornando-se como India e China continua constantemente tornando-se com o negócio como a aproximação velha usual do desenvolvimento do estilo. Poderiam repetir os mesmos erros que o oeste fêz no último poucas décadas. E, se India, China e outros países continuarem a fazer aqueles erros, a seguir não obstante o que o oeste está fazendo para tackle a mudança do clima ele seja impossível”.
Os instrumentos advogados mitigating as tecnologias eficientes
da energia da mudança do clima estão sendo desenvolvidos minimizando o consumo da energia. As lâmpadas de CFL estão sendo promovidas como parte das utilidades eficientes e dos equipamentos da energia para contribuir na redução de emissões de gás verdes da casa. Lá também objetivos para a recolocação da energia renewable do throng non-renewable da energia. Partido verde na busca de Germany completamente - escale a recolocação da energia non-renewable pela energia renewable pelo ano 2020. Há os tratados que foram assinado though eles não são seguidos religiosa. Mais financiar está sendo procurado para a pesquisa para serviços baseados globalizing e utilidades da energia renewable. Os alvos obrigatórios na redução da emissão não estão lá como é evidente da recomendação do aspirational do summit de APEC conclído recentemente em Sydney como parte dos processos para a convenção de estrutura dos UN na mudança do clima a ser prendida em Bali no mês de dezembro 2007. Há umas plantas de ação devoid de políticas e de alvo obrigatórios para a emissão de gáses verdes da casa.
Se o acúmulo de gáses da estufa e de se aquecer resultante do planeta for permitido continuar unchecked, nós teremos coletivamente conseqüências nos termos da perda dos meios de subsistência ecologically sustainable, habitats, falhas de colheita, distribuição inequitable dos habitats ecologically seguros através do mundo. É well-known que o crescimento econômico global está acelerando emissões de gás verdes da casa com energia non-renewable os testes padrões baseados sempre de expansão dos habitats urbanos, do consumo, da produção e do transporte.
Os problemas nas estratégias
lá são as estratégias que foram identificadas com recognition global da necessidade reduzir emissões verdes da casa. Mesmo assim, começam derrotados enquanto os objetivos são ajustados com resultados e visões contradicting. Por exemplo, o cálculo do GDP não considera o impacto no ambiente e em custos ecological e não é assim conseqüentemente fatores no cálculo do produto doméstico bruto. Os custos enormes em ambientes são ignorados depois da convicção que todos os recursos são para o uso e sua non-utilização é um indicador do desenvolvimento tecnologico baixo. Um habitat ecologically sustainable não é considerado valioso com meios de subsistência ecologically sustainable. O relatório trimestral no aumento no GDP não fator o aumento em emissões de gás verdes da casa. 7o Iniciativa da geração em Canadá com ato da medida do wellbeing em uma iniciativa para fatorar os custos e o custo ecological do trabalho das mulheres em
www.sustainwellbeing.net home. Acreditam que o cálculo do produto doméstico bruto deve incluir o custo no ambiente esse nossas ações no presente tem
www.sustainwellbeing.net. O microfone Nickerson e Joe Jordon tem feito campanha por anos.
Os partidos políticos continuam a ser inspirados por visões a curto prazo e não é completamente sua falha. SIMPOL está trabalhando com os eleitores global para influenciar o adoption simultâneo das políticas. Há uma necessidade assegurar global umas ações mais e mais simultâneas para ações calmas, decisões, as escolhas que contribuirão na segurança ecological coletiva. Os partidos políticos necessitam ser educados suportando as políticas que asseguram a proteção de meios de subsistência ecologically sustainable e de habitats. A fundação Labour da liga, a confiança de Sufi e CEASIG como parte do Forum nacional de trabalhadores da floresta e a floresta povoam suportar as direitas da terra em seus habitats tradicionais com suprimir o impacto das legislações coloniais que as privaram suas direitas às terras do homestead e da agricultura. Os partidos verdes são concernidos sobre as edições ecologically seguras mas seus eleitores são poucos. A maioria dos partidos políticos são concernidos com as edições que são mais atraentes ao elite e à classe média no presente imediato.
Um outro obstáculo principal experimentado na maneira de começar respostas globais para mitigating a mudança do clima é marketing continuado de testes padrões intensive do consumo do combustível fossil, projetos dos habitats urbanos, paradigm do desenvolvimento, nationalisms do competidor para procurar os marcadores dos lifestyles intensive do combustível fossil, devaluation dos testes padrões ecologically sustainable do consumo da agricultura. Existe sustentação política continuada para produtos cultural e processos que são inimical à segurança ecological nacional e global. Quando houver umas medidas para avaliações ecological do impacto do ambiente do impacto mas então existe marcada ausência dos interesses para dirigir-se às causas da raiz de disastres ecological e sintéticos. Marginalisation dos grupos baseados fé da juventude pelo intelligentsia atheistic continua a ser o problema que necessita ser dirigido. Necessitam ser trazidos na placa.
Paradigm nacional Ecologically seguro do desenvolvimento da estratégia
que considera o acima, propõe-se que um paradigm nacional ecologically seguro do desenvolvimento da estratégia contem as seguintes características:
1. Introduzir no mercado do consumo ecologically seguro, produção, uso do lazer modelou
2. Desanimando os testes padrões ecologically hostis 3 do consumo e
da produção. Promotion do comércio da vizinhança e da instrução e de desanimar o comércio e a instrução ecologically hostis
4. Agricultura Ecologically sustainable
5. Promotion dos sistemas ecologically sustainable 6
do transporte. A fé baseou medidas para a transformação do teste padrão 7 do uso
do lazer. Promotion e proteção dos habitats ecologically sustainable
8. interesse ecologically seguro sistema livre 9 livres e do débito
das finanças. Os modelos Ecologically seguros do sucesso
para uma redução
da solução na emissão de gáses verdes da casa com promover medidas e testes padrões da decisão que moderam o consumo dos serviços e das utilidades baseados no consumo da casa verde que emite-se combustíveis fossil são críticos que tudo concernido com proteger o humanity dos impactos negativos da mudança do clima, minimizando a incidência da seca e parando a expansão dos desertos e impedindo a perda de habitats ecologically sustainable e de meios de subsistência. Considerando as emergências, discute-se que o adoption da fé baseou medidas para testes padrões de transformação do uso do lazer está considerado na prioridade. O diagrama seguindo demonstra o impacto e as relações que o adoption do prayer e do meditation 5 cronometra um dia nos testes padrões do consumo.
Os homens e as mulheres que seguem os comandos para o prayer e o meditation 5 cronometram um dia não são prováveis indulge no consumo dos lotes dos acoplamentos do trabalho do borne da noite que requerem cursos interurbanos porque este interferiria no observance do comando para o prayer /salah /meditation /yoga nas horas apontadas. Pode-se fàcilmente ver que o adoption deste comando assegurará a transformação dos lotes do consumo do lazer intensive do combustível fossil tal como ir à barra e aos salões dançando. Isto pode ser adotado junto com diversas outras respostas pessoais e da comunidade para reduzir a emissão de casas verdes. As respostas baseadas fé parecem ser mais eficazes e necessitam ser promovidas quanto para a este não há nenhuma necessidade fazer esforços adicionais. A associação do conservatism do `' parece ser mais uma da resposta que alguns homens e mulheres podem ter para uma comunicação de medidas baseadas fé. Mas então é importante ver a importância do adoption da medida baseada fé para o efficacy, a segurança, o suitability, o desirability e a validez ecological. As respostas baseadas fé são comuns e necessitam apenas ser promovidas para sua contribuição no wellbeing ecological nos níveis pessoais, da comunidade, os sociais, os nacionais e os globais. Há uma necessidade urgente para o mesmo.
A fé pessoal baseou o Prayer
das respostas 5 vezes um o dia para o teste padrão de transformação do uso do lazer que reconhece que os testes padrões do uso do lazer são um dos acoplamentos sociais chaves que consomem a maioria dos serviços baseados e das utilidades do combustível fossil. O comando para o prayer é comum através dos textos religiosos embora parece praticado o mais proeminente pelos homens e pelas mulheres que seguem as comunicações de Muhammad, acreditados para ser o último mensageiro por Muçulmano (os homens e as mulheres que se submetem à vontade do deus/Allah/. /.
Como o adoption do prayer transforma os testes padrões do consumo e homens intensive e as mulheres dos testes padrões do uso do lazer
do curso ecologically hostil que praticam o prayer (salah no árabe) não visitam salões e barras dançando enquanto são concernidos mais sobre praying a tempo. O Prayer na manhã, tarde, após o por do sol e então o prayer após o jantar nos salões do prayer e do meditation das igrejas dos mosques/dos repousos/synagogue//lugar de trabalho fá-los limitar ao foco no trabalho necessário somente. O Prayer e o remembrance para eles são um meio do relaxation, do stress que rebentam, da socialização, e do communion e assim por diante. Concentrados de S/he nas matérias essenciais na vizinhança e em cuidados para eles como comandado através dos mensageiros. Secondly, abstain do consumo exhibitionist que segue o comando do deus Allah para não transgressing o jogo dos limites/limites por Deus/Allah. For dressing they believe that the best dress is that of piety determined by the extent to which they follow the commands of God/ Allah. They abstain from adultery following the commands against the same as they believe in upholding the best standards of piety. They seek forgiveness from God/Allah for the sinful deeds executed intentionally or unintentionally. Thus adoption of prayer 5 times a day works as a guard for all the behaviours that have been prohibited in the holy books across the religions.
They donate out of the sustenance for poor following the commands for donation/zakat, khairat, fitra and sadaqah/daan.. They do not waste and thus observe the best of the ideals communicated through the slogan of ‘waste not, want not’. They indulge in ecologically safe consumption and believe in moderation in all matters. The middle path communicated through the commands of God/Allah is best ensured through the adoption of compulsory prayers 5 times a day. Youth, Men and men following the commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru for remembrance of Ishwar are likely to have the similar best behaviour patterns that are ecologically safe. Their average ecological footprints are likely to be very low. This needs to be established with communication of more ecological audits/ water audits/green audits/ energy audits/ paper audits/ food intake audits- a series of audits that youth, men and women following the command of God/Allah perform or they are supposed to perform. They ensure more and more pious behaviour, consumption and production patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations call for generation of more pious responses as they are directly linked to reduction in the emission of green house gases .
Inter faith commons
The inter faith commons need to be communicated and disseminated for not only global integration but also for addressing the critical ecological challenge that we as part of humanity face . Global warming is no longer a concern of a particular nations but it is an issue that we all as part of humanity face. Inter faith commons bring to the fore the understanding that we have common monotheistic content and messengers who upheld the best standards of justice, communication, and struggle in their life time and fought men and women after utilizing the best means of persuasion. Shiv Sankalp Taru has a very interesting verse that needs to be brought in light for men and women who have special affinity for the Sanskrit textual tradition. The timings are very much common to the timing followed by the Muslims. It is a command that needs to be followed by all. Muslim youths, men and women already follow that following the communication of God/BRAHMM communicated through the last messenger while believing that commands were communicated through all the messengers earlier in various languages and lands. The commands followed by Muslims are the commands that were communicated through the earlier messengers were sent to all the lands to people who spoke various languages following the related verse in the holy Qur’an. Commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru “Ishwar smarate panch awasare” calls for remembrance of Ishwar who was neither born nor gave on five occasions in a day, every day-all the 365/366 days of the year.
Command for establishing prayer at the appointed hours exists in the Holy Qur’an. According to one count there are command for establishing salah and give zakat more that 54 times in the holy Qur’an. There are commands in Bible and Torah. Buddhist monotheistic tradition calls for fighting the ‘mara’ in the Dhammapada and the atheistic understanding calls for adoption of middle path in all the matters. Practice of meditation leads to transformation of consumption patterns. Gurus in the Sikhism and Jain traditions are examples of austere life filled with prayer and penance. Guru Nanak was a practitioner of prayer and remembrance and he is revered for that and followed by millions of Sikhs around the world. For Sikhs, it is not impossible to follow the best practices of Guru Nanak who established himself as a role model for millions of Sikhs around the world. Following table shows the interfaith commons that can be adopted by all. This is being proposed considering the absence of coherent strategy in the atheistic post-modern discourse and contingencies of the global emergencies that must be addressed.

How an ecologically sustainable / contended reverent economy is built up with happiness for all
Ecological economists are currently debating issues with the Washington consensus economist and fighting the TINA (there is no alternative) syndrome .Noam Chomsky believes in the alternative economic order and so do youths of the world who through their calls are wanting to see the change and taking up non-violent advocacy and communication for the needful change . He also believes in the alternative political and cultural order .Binary economists are calling for abolition of interest charged on the loans as they believe creation of money from thin air in the books of the bankers is responsible for lots of ecologically hostile and socially inequitable practices in consumption, production and distribution and leisure use patterns
www.binaryeconomics.org .
Elimination of usury, fiat money propelling the ecologically hostile growth of urban habitats is being pointed out to be a critical factor in building a socially inclusive and ecologically safe economy. Similarly, debt free credit /interest free loans are being promoted for zero debt distressed suicides and bankruptcies.
Another major feature of contented and ecological sustainable economy is its capacity and intent for the protection of ecologically sustainable habitats with renewable resource based life support systems. It is simply impossible to envisage sustainability of non-renewable based transport systems in perpetuity. Search for nuclear energy and intense research activity in the renewable resource based energy is a proof for this. It needs to be noted that while nuclear energy in the short run appears to be carbon neutral, but in the long run, this is also not sustainable as there are limited resources for running the reactors. It is clear that resources such as uranium and thorium are not for all the time in the future. Therefore, the only solution is to decelerate and regulate the consumption of non-renewable resource based services and utilities through instituting an ecologically sustainable economy with the following features:
1.Debt free money and interest free loans with public control on the creation of money
2.Rights to renewable resource based habitats
3.Ecologically sustainable leisure use patterns
4.Distributive justice for renewable resource based livelihoods
5.Freedom from worried of energy crisis
6.Protection of Renewable resource based livelihoods
Freedom from worries of energy crisis affecting energy intensive transportation systems and habitats is an essential constituent of an ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy .At present most of the planners are concerned with the increasing energy requirements and for this some countries are ready to sacrifice their ideals and foundations of foreign policy. Left parties in India along with other parties have been vociferously opposing the loss of independence in the foreign policy of India. It is important to ensure sustainability for the renewable resource based life support systems and for this it is important to halt the loss of ecologically sustainable habitats and agricultural production methodologies. It is not possible to ensure sustainability for habitat designs that are based on unsustainable energy sources. Therefore, it is not possible to ensure sustainability for skyscraper laden urban habitats. Urban areas with energy intensive shopping malls need to be brought within ecologically sustainable limits. For this to happen, it is important to support adoption of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance framework.
Youths as drivers of change processes and communication for transition to ecologically safe life support systems locally and globally
Creating debt free money and ensuring interest free loans in not quite easy as that requires change of hearts and minds of men and women governing the various institutions who find the proposals difficult. Success of the proposals for ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy and polity requires multiplication of men and women who uphold the criterion of piety. It is important that the pious men and women across the world prohibiting peacefully what is wrong and prescribing what is right take charge of the governance and ensure that debt free money is created, faith based measures are adopted for mitigating the impacts of climate change. It is important to understand the need to prepare for life after death as that would impel men and women to adopt faith based measures more and more. Now, the signs of ecological distress are too compelling to avoid collective and personal actions for both mitigating and halting the impacts of climate change. Signs of ecological distress affecting the lives of billions call for taking corrective action locally and globally. Youths and corporations who are market for non-renewable energy intensive services and utilities need to be in charge. Atheistic postmodernist laissez faire regimen of cultural, political and moral governance needs to be critically reviewed as they damage the survival interests of the billions in here and now and that of future generations.
Hurdles in the way/ constraints
There are hurdles in the way for such a massive change taking place simultaneously and globally and most pernicious among the faith based notions are that of neo-liberal atheistic ideology where market and profit devoid of the concerns of eternal interests of mankind are permitted to have full freedom. It is dominance of atheistic neo-liberal ideology that prevents men and women from adopting the faith based pious measures for addressing the global and local challenges. Media channels such as MTV with adoring participation of youths indoctrinated in the atheistic visions of good life are busy in creating models of copy cat consumption and leisure use patterns globally with local vernacular channels following in line. Starting with English music content in 90’s now MTV has more of Hindi songs and dance forms with direct message for youths for copying the ecologically leisure use pattern including partying ,dancing and drinking of intoxicating drinks.
The second hurdle is the lack on coherent national and international policy with respect to addressing the climate change. While Kyoto protocol emission target call for reduction in the emission of green house gases, national development strategies continue to be inspired by the perception of competitive disadvantage. It is dangerous to have such incoherence for long time as the assessments of climate scientists are too compelling. Speaking on the occasion of a meeting to the launch the full report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on the impacts of global warming, Professor Martin Parry, a climate scientist with MET office in UK and co-chairman of the working group for the report said, “We are all used to talking about the impact of these changes coming in the lifetime of our children and grand children. Now we know that it is us.” He added that politicians had wasted a decade in focussing on ways to cut emissions, and had woken up recently to the need to adapt. He felt that “mitigation has got all the attention, but we cannot mitigate out of this problem. We have now a choice between a damaged world and a severely damaged world”. (The Hindu 20 September 2007)
The hurdle can be seen through assessing the levels of convergence for the various agencies and their functioning. While there are calls for higher rates of growth, they are not assessed in the light of the demands of ecological sustainability. Even the promotion of indexes such as “sustainability index” is not getting the required attention and it has been left to the discretion of the nations. There are evidences of lack of interagency cooperation and United National Development Programme (UNDP) appears to be working against the mandate of United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Environment assessments /ministries are slighted for benefiting ecologically hostile proposals/ policies. More often than not considerations of ecological sustainability are ignored for sanctioning ecologically hostile projects. This is evident from the sanction of Special Economic Zones despite the violent and non-violent resistance of farmers in India as they did not want to give up on their only source of ecologically sustainable livelihoods through farming. Committee for Campaign on National Himalayan Policy for the ecologically fragile Himalayan region in India has been calling for redefinition of development policy.
Therefore there is a need to institute a governance framework that is both ecologically safe and socially inclusive with reference to poor, old, children and women, ethnic and religious groups residing both in rural and urban habitats.
Labour League Foundation along with several youth led organisations considers the need for establishing ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance with the following features:
1.A governance that is cognizant of the needs of poor, rights of farmers and villages to ecologically sustainable livelihoods and habitats
2.Governance that eliminates fictitious inflationary money and usurious loans created from thin air and responsible for expansion of ecologically hostile habitats
3. Governance that promotes pious and ecologically safe consumption and production pattern
4.A government that plans for ecologically safe disaster free future for all
5.Governance that ensure ecologically safe distribution of natural resources
6.Governance that works for the interests of all
7.Governance that ensures policy making for the rights of children, future generations and poor
.
Diagram-4
Represents the key features of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance
Youth strategies
1.Multiplication of carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) across the cities and villages
These discussions initiated by youth and community elders in the neighbourhood where they gather for collective prayer, discussions and other social engagements. The recommendations of the discussions and simultaneous action compiled at various levels will be presented in the form of a memorandum to the local and world leader gathered in various summits and events accelerating the generation of ecologically safe survival and development policies and multiplication of ecologically safe survival policies. Local impacts will be generated through transformation of the leisure use pattern, consumption pattern, production systems ensuring minimisation of emission of green house gases and galvanising mass communication strategies for reduction in the personal contribution to the green house gases. The discussions on the urgency of reducing green house gases lead to the transformation of personal level consumption patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance (CEASIG), a Delhi based organisation believes that personal responses are critical for transformation of the consumption patterns. Unsustainable consumption patterns can be halted with the personal responses. Personal responses are always part of the global responses. Carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) will multiply ecologically safe responses across the urban and rural areas.
2.Multiplication of ecologically safe responses through promotion of green journalism
Production of analytical and advisory outputs through journalists is critical and they are one of the major stakeholders in shaping the opinions, consumption patterns. Journalists writing on lifestyle can substantially influence the consumption pattern of people in the urban areas. They can help in shaping the tastes and defining the choices. Journalists are important is generating democratic consensus for halting unsustainable consumption patterns. In our times, journalists play a very critical and sometimes they are responsible for defining the social, cultural and political trends. Youth organisations call for securing the future of villages, children and future generations with ecologically sustainable habitats, consumption patterns while ensuring inter-species justice.
3.Catalysing green politics
Labour league Foundation and Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations globally will be supporting the process for open and transparent politics for instilling the importance of ecologically safe green ideals. Youth organisations will be organising meetings with the representatives of the various media organisations and political parties and seek inclusion of ecological considerations in editorial policies and election manifestoes. Media organisations need to be visionary organisations and help in the preparation for an emerging future bereft of petro-modern consumption, transport, habitat and production systems.
4.Transformation of leisure use patterns
Youth organisations and youth wish to realise the millennium development goals for eliminating the unsustainable consumption patterns and wish to do so through suggesting transformation of the leisure use pattern. Suggestions for adoption of faith based measures that are common across the religious texts need to be taken seriously as part of global cultural commons. As indicated through the diagrammatic representation of the impact of adoption of faith based measures, youths call for generating interfaith consensus for acting simultaneously for transforming the leisure use patterns.
5.Calculation of ecological footprints, eliminating ecological rucksacks, returning to the ecologically sustainable habitats of the past for securing the ecological safe future of children and future generations
Youth call for dissemination of the practice of measuring ecological footprints for getting the desired actions for reducing the number of decisions involving emission of green house gases. Similarly, awareness on the loss of rocks due to excessive mining is critical for eliminating the amount of ecological losses. It is critical to value the conventional housing designs that use mud, grass, bamboo and wood. The definition of poverty considering the possession of adobe dwellings as a sign of poverty needs to be revised.
6.Ecological Audit of the consumption processes and patterns
The ecological audit is a concept proposed by Dr.Muhammad Mukhtar Alam, the chairman of Labour League Foundation
http://muhammad_mukhtar_alam.tigblog.org .This needs to be used along with the calculation of ecological footprints, environment audit/ green audit for assessing the impact of various decision and consumption patterns. Globalisation of the ecological audit at all levels is needed for supporting ecologically sustainable consumption patterns. This is important for realising the millennium development goals for environment sustainability by the year 2015. It is proposed that reports on sustainability index are incorporated in the formulation of the ecologically safe development policy.
7.Ecological Audit of the production systems / patterns
Production processes need to be assessed for ecological sustainability. There are ecologically sustainable and unsustainable production processes. The workshops with corporations interested in realising the millennium development goals will be conducted for getting in the changes in production processes. Youths believe based on the predictions on the oil reserves that Petro-modern production systems do not have a long future. Reducing energy demand for ecologically unsustainable production, consumption patterns is critical for halting the expansion of deserts and regularisation of rainfalls.
8.Ecological Audit of the transport systems / patterns
Renewable resource based transport systems are sustainable and non-renewable resource based transport systems are not sustainable. Ecological Audit of the transport systems needs to be encouraged for all organisations and ministries dealing with transport. Minimising / Eliminating travel is critical for ecologically sustainable habitats. We need to prepare for the end of petro-modern age.
9.Ecological Audit of the leisure use patterns-
There are leisure use patterns that do not use green house gas producing fossil fuels and there are leisure use patterns that are based on renewable resources and that does not involve consumption of fossil fuels. Workshop with the neighbourhood discussion leaders and resident welfare associations needs to be conducted for necessary transformation of leisure use patterns. Children, youths and elders need to be encouraged to adopt faith based measures for relaxation and stress busting. There are several studies that have demonstrated the impact of prayer and meditation on stress levels. Ecological audit of the leisure engagements need to be supported for getting the desired response for reduction in the emission of green house gases through transformation of leisure use patterns.
10.Interfaith dialogue for addressing the climate change, farmer’s suicides, and social security for workers in unorganized sector and transforming finance sector
Appreciation of the common commands for prayer, donation, compassion, charity and prohibition of usury, adultery, and homosexuality is needed with wider dissemination of the same. Adoption of these commands addresses the challenge of climate change, ecologically hostile usurious system, AIDS and so on. Inter-faith dialogue will ensure generation of responses across the faith groups. Delhi has a vibrant culture of interfaith dialogue. Sant Rajinder Singh of Sawan Kripal Ashram has been conducting the same for many years. Youth organisation need to work independently or in collaboration with faith based organisations for generating more forums of interfaith dialogue.
11.National/ regional/ city/ village based conventions on Inter Faith common responses for addressing the climate change-
Governments need to be encouraged for holding national conventions for generating consensus for adoption of faith based measures for addressing the climate change. There are cultural responses for fighting the atheistic neo-liberal cultural trends emanating from Europe and copied by youth in the name of globalisation and modernity. National Convention will address the issue of climate change through adopting the interfaith commons while preserving religious diversity and ecologically sustainable dietary, sartorial, linguistic diversities.
12.Carbon neutral Youth colloquiums / meetings / Majlis-e-Naujawan/ Yuva Harit Bharat Sabha/../../
Youths propose globalisation of local efforts for contributing in the mitigation of the impacts of climate change. Governments recognise the critical role of youths as more and more organisations led by youths are involved in consultation. It is suggested that Green youth forums with vernacular names need to be formed and discussions be held with active government support for getting the desired response pattern for halting the expansion of unsustainable consumption pattern and leisure use pattern through adoption of faith based measures.
Conclusion:
Imagining the responses of the weaker species in the face of man made onslaughts on the non-renewable resources , many youths across the world recognise the threats represented through the expression of anguish of the billions of poor who are angry, dispossessed and seeking an end to the process of non-renewable resource based usurious finance fuelled expansion of consumption and production pattern that is causing serious loss of livelihood for millions across the Earth and call upon all the governments, civil society organisations, corporations engaged in ecologically hostile production processes to boycott the ecologically hostile usurious finance and prevent further loss of ecologically sustainable habitats that are an immediate outcome of the expansion of ecologically hostile non-renewable resource based habitats. Nations need to compete in establishing the models of ecologically safe economy, polity and culture. Youth of the world are ready to become a leader along with Muslims, Greens and men and women of the world who wish to halt the political expansion of the atheistic neo-liberal ideology that is responsible for exacerbating the ecological distress demonstrated through the increased incidence of drought and expansion of deserts causing suffering for millions. Adaptation is the weakest response and youths call for halting the negative impacts of climate change. Nothing is impossible.

ROLL av ungdommar, i ATT MINIMERA FÖREKOMSTEN AV TORKAN OCH SKRALTIGT UTVIDGNINGEN AV ÖKNAR THROUHG som BY TILLTALAR KLIMATFÖRÄNDRING OMFORMA EKOLOGISKT OHÅLLBAR FÖRBRUKNING, MÖNSTRAR PRODUKTIONEN OCH TRANSPORT

Torkor och omvandlande till öken som får effekt av klimatförändring
torkor har varit en orsaka av världsdelen för bekymmer sammanlagt sedan århundraden tillbaka. Det finns hänvisar till för samma i de heliga texterna liksom den heliga Torahen, bibeln och den heliga Quren'. Yusuf/Joseph, den mest unga sonen av Yaqoob/Jacob, budbärare av Allah/guden har antecknat för att ha klokt konungen av Egypten för att förbereda sig för torkaåren på basen av en dröm, som konungen sågar, och nämnde till det tidigare fånguppehället med Joseph (fred är på honom). Konungen agerade på tolkningen av hans dröm förutsatt att av Joseph (fred är på honom) och som var förberedd för 7 år av torkan. På motsvarande sätt har omvandlande till öken varit ett processaa som har antecknats som en av de processaa, som har varit på i olika delar av världen. Torkor markeras av frånvaroen av regnar, eller otillräckligt regna som är ansvariga för förlust av kantjusterar, eller otillräckligt kantjustera avkastning orsaka ett allvarligt bekymmer för mat. Omvandlande till öken anknytas med förlust av jordbruks- livsmiljöer. Förlusten av jordbruks- länder, skog täcker är ett resultat av globalisering av den industriella produktionen bearbetar baserat på non-renewable resurser baserade resurser. Klimatförändring är ett resultat av globaliseringen av den non-renewable resursen baserade stads- livsmiljöer. Torkan är, bland annan dela upp i faktorer, ansvariga för smutsar degradering. Det har varit också etablerat att omvandlande till ökenförhöjningar verkställa av det gröna huset gasar utsläpp. Det finns ett förhållande av orsakar och verkställer thus mellan climatic ändring och omvandlande till öken.
Fokusera av ungdommen placerar pappers- på torka, och omvandlande till öken är därför på efter:
1. Bedömningen av svar till klimatförändring göras,
2. bedömningar av instrumenterar för att mildra får effekt av klimat,
3. häckar som vändas mot i genomförandet av det Kyoto protokollutsläppet, uppsätta som mål
4. Tvång i det utvecklingsstrategin och förslag för ekologiskt hållbar utvecklingsstrategi
5. Appell för adoption av ekologiskt kassaskåpet och socialt inklusive maktram för ekologiskt sustainability och socialt rättvisa
6. Baserade strategier 7 för innovativ
tro. Ungdomstrategier
Ändra i klimatet med löneförhöjning i temperatur av jord, ändring i nederbörd mönstrar orsakas utsläpp av det gröna huset gasar tack vare, att lönelyften som temperaturen av jord som beloppet av grönt hus gasar frambragt är mycket mer, än kapaciteten av gräsplanen täcker för att absorbera. Får effekt av klimatförändringen är klädde med filt överallt det okända medborgaregränserna. Det finns antecknade flera bevisar som har orsakat nationer till taken på utmaningen av global warming .UN som, den intergovernmental panelen på klimatförändring har varit mötet och att överväga på utfärda. Det finns flera medborgaresvar och landskampöverenskommelser. För en tid sedan Kina och U.S. har uttryckt överenskommelse att fungera på klimatförändring. Tala på orsaka av APEC-toppmöte i Sydney, Australien Herr Hu Jintao underhöll att ”Förenta nationen ram somregeln bör återstå det huvudsakligt kanaliserar för landskampförsöken” att tilltala klimatförändring”.
Den fjärde bedömningrapporten av den Intergovernmental panelen på klimatförändring (IPCC), som betonade de långtgående följderna, som fortsatte skulle global warming har över världen, har givit ny impetus till att finna lösningen till problemet. Toppmötemötet av gruppen av åtta industrialised länder (G8) som överens rymdes i Tyskland i månaden av Juni 2007 till nya insatser för barkassen för kollektiv handling av både rika nationer och fast-growing ett u-land att bekämpa klimatförändring. I dess fjärde bedömningrapport förkroppsligar IPCCNA, landskampen, som har uppgiften av vägning som är vetenskaplig att bevisa på klimatförändring, pekat till definitivt bevisar att global atmosfärisk koncentration av det nyckel- växthuset gasar liksom koldioxid ”hade ökat tydligt som ett resultat av människaaktiviteter efter 1750”. Dessa gasar fångade jorden värmer att skulle annars har utstrålat ut in i utrymme. Om fören mycket av växthuset gasar, och den resulterande warmingen av planet var tillåten att fortsätta okontrollerat, måste mänskligheten som kollektivt ska, att vända mot flera följder. Torkor och omvandlande till öken är bland får effekt av klimatförändring. Den pappers- placera fokuserar på utmaningarna, och erbjudandelösningar för skraltig får effekt av klimatförändring till och med adoption av mäter däribland de tro baserade personliga svaren för omformning av ekologiskt fientlig förbrukning, produktion, och fritidbruk mönstrar.
Avlägsna raddaseminarier
och konferenser för framsteg har så organiserats för att tilltala den globala utmaningen. Det finns Kyoto protokollutsläpp uppsätta som mål för vilka medborgarestrategier har planerats. Bekant Kyoto protokoll formellt, som UN-ramreglar på klimatförändring inte har ratificerats av några av de viktiga nationerna. U.S. och Australien ratificerar inte protokollet, som de har föreställningar av konkurrenskraftigt att missgynna. Det finns överenskommelser för förminskande utsläppen vid året 2020 och 2050. Det finns en vibrerande mobilization av borgerligt samhälle och mobilization av ungdomgrupper. Flera grupper är funktionsdugliga för politikadvocacyen för att genomföra bandet uppsätta som mål för utsläppet av det gröna huset gasar. Det finns också en dynamisk politikadvocacy för R&D i förnybar energi, så att det finns alldeles av den förnybara resursen baserad energi för utbytning av den non-renewable energin. Gräsplan festar existerande i mer, än 88 länder kallar för utbytet för växthuset som frambringar fossil, tankar baserade energikällor med förnybar energi.
Uns har Intergovernmental panel på klimatförändring tilldelats den Nobel prisen tillsammans med den Robert Allevrat blod för arbete på klimatförändringen. Den norrmanNobel kommittén citerade mottagarna ”för deras försök till uppbyggnad och sprider mer stor kunskap om konstgjord klimatförändring, och till lekmanna- fundament för mäter som är nödvändiga att motverka en sådan ändring”. HerrAllevrat blod reagerade till stämningordstävet, ”som vi vänder mot ett riktigt planetariskt nöd-: klimatförändringen är inte ett politiskt utfärdar, är det en moral och en andlig utmaning till all mänsklighet”. Mr.R.K. Pachaury som delar prisen med den Robert Allevrat blod, som ordföranden av den Intergovernmental panelen på klimatförändring reagerade att den skulle Nobel fredprisen tillfogar avkänning av angelägenhet till slagsmål mot global warming. IPCC uppsättning upp i 1988, är tasked med att ge makthavande personer ett summariskt av den senaste kunskapen om klimatförändring. Det Gavin Edwards huvudet av klimatet och energi delta i en kampanj, den Greenpeace landskampen som talar om vad regeringarna över världen kan göra för att mildra problemet pekade ut behovet att ompröva benämner av protokollet som bekräftar det åtskilda ansvaret för de olika nationerna som reagerar till klimatförändringen. Han pekar ut behovet för ett u-land att göra alla needful, och inte repetition missförstår av de framkallade länderna - ”har nongovernmental organisationar egentligen fokuserat på det industrialised länder som måste att göra lejonparten av att tackla klimatet ändra-att är frikänden. Men vad är också klar, är, att ett u-land gillar, Indien och Kina fortsätter constantly framkallning med affären som vanligt gammalt utformar utvecklingsinriktning. De kunde upprepa samma missförstår det västra har gjort i de sist få årtiondena. Och om Indien, porslinet och andra länder fortsätter för att göra de, missförstår, då utan hänsyn till vad det västra gör för att tackla klimatförändringen, det ska är omöjligt”.
Instrumenterar förespråkat för att mildra klimatförändring
energin som effektiva teknologier framkallas för att minimera förbrukningen av energin. CFL-lampor främjas, som delen av effektiva hjälpmedel för energi och utrustningar för att bidra i förminskningen av det gröna huset gasar utsläpp. Där också trängas mål för utbyte av non-renewable energi förnybar energi. Grönt parti i utbyte för fjäll för Tysklandsökanden mycket - av non-renewable energi vid förnybar energi vid året 2020. Det finns fördrag som har varit undertecknat though dem inte följs religiously. Mer finansiering söks för forskning för globalizing av baserad förnybar energi servar och hjälpmedel. Bandet uppsätta som mål på utsläppförminskning är inte där, som är tydligt från aspirationalrekommendationen av APEC-toppmötet avslutnings för en tid sedan i Sydney, som delen av bearbetar för UN-ramregeln på klimatförändring som ska rymms i Bali i månaden av December 2007. Det finns planerar av handlingen som är devoid av bindande politik och, uppsätta som mål för utsläppet av det gröna huset gasar.
Om fören mycket av växthuset gasar, och den resulterande warmingen av planet var tillåten att fortsätta okontrollerat, ska vi har kollektivt följder benämner in av förlusten av de ekologiskt hållbara livelihoodsna, livsmiljöer, missväxtar, inequitable fördelning av ekologiskt kassaskåplivsmiljöerna över världen. Det är välkänt att den globala ekonomiska bang accelererar det gröna huset gasar utsläpp med utvidgande de någonsin non-renewable energi baserade stads- livsmiljöerna, förbrukning, produktion och transport mönstrar.
Problem i strategierna
där är strategier som har identifierats med global erkännande av behovet att förminska gröna husutsläpp. Även så, får de besegrade, som mål är fastställda med att säga emott resultat och visioner. Till exempel betraktar GDP-beräkningen inte få effekt på miljö, och ekologiskt kostar och är thus inte dela upp i faktorer därför i beräkningen av bruttonationalprodukten. Jättelikt kostar på miljöer ignoreras efter övertygelsen att alla resurser är för bruket och deras non-utilisation är en indikator av låg teknologisk utveckling. En ekologiskt hållbar livsmiljö är inte den ansedda värdesaken med ekologiskt hållbara livelihoods. Quarterly anmäla på förhöjningen i GDPEN dela upp i faktorer inte förhöjningen i grönt hus gasar utsläpp. 7th Utvecklingen som insats i Kanada med wellbeingmätning agerar i en insats för att dela upp i faktorer det ekologiskt, kostar och kostar av kvinna arbete hemmastadda
www.sustainwellbeing.net. De tror att beräkningen av bruttonationalprodukten måste inkludera kosta på miljön att våra handlingar i gåvan har
www.sustainwellbeing.net. Mikrofonen Nickerson och Joe Jordon har delta i en kampanj för år.
Politiskt parti fortsätter för att inspireras av kortfristiga visioner, och det är inte deras kritiserar ganska. SIMPOL är funktionsduglig med väljarna globalt för påverkan av den samtidiga adoptionen av politik. Det finns behov att se till mer, och mer samtidig handlingar globalt för fridsamma handlingar, beslut, val, som ska, bidrar i kollektiv ekologisk säkerhet. Politiskt parti behöver att utbildas för understödja politiken som ser till skydd av ekologiskt hållbara livelihoods och livsmiljöer. Arbeta ligafundamentet, Sufi förtroende och CEASIG som del av medborgarefora av skogarbetare och skogfolk som är understödjes rätterna av landet i deras traditionella livsmiljöer till och med att ta bort få effekt av koloniala lagstiftningar som berövade dem deras rätter till hemman- och jordbrukländer. Gröna partier angå om kassaskåpet utfärdar ekologiskt, men deras väljare är få. Mest av politiskt parti angå med utfärdar som är mer lockande till eliten och medelklassen i den omgående gåvan.
Another ha som huvudämne häcken som erfaras i av att få globala svar för att mildra klimatförändringen, är långt fortsatt marknadsföra av fossil tankar intensiva konsumtionsmönster, stads- livsmiljödesigner, utvecklingsparadigm, konkurrenskraftiga nationalismar för sökande av markörerna av fossil tankar intensiva livsstilar, devalvering av de ekologiskt hållbara åkerbruka konsumtionsmönstren. Det finns fortsatt politisk service för kulturella produkter och bearbetar som är inimical till medborgare och global ekologisk säkerhet. Stunder där är mäter för ekologisk inverkanmiljö får effekt bedömningar, men därefter finns det tydligt frånvaro av bekymmer för att tilltala rota orsakar av ekologiska och konstgjorda katastrofer. Marginalisation av de tro baserade ungdomgrupperna vid den ateistiska intelligentsiaen fortsätter för att vara problemet som behöver att tilltalas. De behöver att kommas med ombord.
Ekologiskt paradigmen för utveckling för kassaskåpmedborgarestrategi som
betraktar det ovannämnt, är det föreslaget att ekologiskt en paradigm för utveckling för kassaskåpmedborgarestrategi innehåller efter särdragen:
1. Att marknadsföra av ekologiskt kassaskåpförbrukning, produktionen, fritidbruk mönstrar
2. Avskräcka ekologiskt fientlig förbrukning och produktion mönstrar
3. Befordran av neighbourhoodhandel och utbildning och att avskräcka ekologiskt fientlig handel och utbildning
4. Ekologiskt hållbart jordbruk
5. Befordran av ekologiskt hållbara transportsystem
6. Baserad tro mäter för omformning av fritidbruk mönstrar
7. Befordran och skydd av ekologiskt hållbara livsmiljöer
8. ekologiskt intresserar kassaskåpet fritt och fritt finanssystem 9
för skulden. Ekologiskt modellerar kassaskåpet av framgång
in mot en lösnings
förminskning i utsläppet av det gröna huset gasar till och med att främja mäter, och beslutet mönstrar som dämpa förbrukningen av servar, och hjälpmedel som baseras på förbrukningen av det gröna huset som sänder ut fossil, tankar är kritiska att allt som angå med att skydda mänskligheten från negationen får effekt av klimatförändring och att minimera förekomsten av torkan och skraltigt utvidgningen av öknar och förhindra förlusten av ekologiskt hållbara livsmiljöer och livelihoods. Considering nödlägena argumenteras det att baserad adoption av tro mäter för omformande fritidbruk mönstrar är ansedd på prioritet. Efter visar diagrammet få effekt och förbindelsen som adoption av bön och meditation 5 tajmar en dag på konsumtionsmönstren.
Manar och kvinnor befaller efter för bön, och meditation 5 tajmar en dag är inte rimlig att skämma bort i förbrukning av raddor som aftonen postar arbetskopplingar, som kräver långdistans- resor, som skulle denna störer i efterlevnad av befalla för bönen /salah /meditation /yoga på de bestämda timmarna. Det kan lätt ses att adoption av denna befaller ska ser till omformning av raddor som förbrukning av fossil tankar intensiv fritid liksom att gå att bomma för och att dansa korridorer. Detta kan adopteras tillsammans med flera andra personliga och gemenskapsvar för förminskande utsläppet av gröna hus. Tro baserade svar verkar att vara effektivare, och de behöver att främjas, som för detta det inte finns något behov att göra extra försök. Anslutningen av `- konservatism' verkar att vara mer en av svaret som några manar och kvinnor kan ha för den baserade kommunikationen av tro mäter. Men därefter är det viktigt att se betydelsen av adoptionen av tro som baseras för att mäta för ekologisk effektivitet, säkerhet, lämplighet, desirability och giltighet. Tro baserade svar är vanligt, och de behöver precis att främjas för deras bidrag i den ekologiska wellbeingen på det personligt, gemenskapen, samkvämet, medborgare, och globalt jämnar. Det finns ett akut behov för samma.
Mönstrar personlig tro baserade
svar som bön 5 tajmar en dag för omformande fritidbruk, igenkännande att fritidbruk mönstrar är en av de nyckel- sociala kopplingarna som konsumerar mest av fossil tankar baserat servar och hjälpmedel. Befalla för bön är vanligt över de religiösa texterna, fast den verkar prominently övad av manar och kvinnor efter kommunikationerna av Muhammad som tros för att vara den sist budbärare av Muslims (manar och kvinnor som sänder till som ska av gud/Allah/. /.
Och ekologiskt fientligt resa intensivt fritidbruk mönstrar manar hur adoption av bönen omformar
konsumtionsmönstren och kvinnor som övar bönen (salah i arabiska) inte besöker danskorridorer och, bommar för, som de angå mer om att be i tid. Bönen i morgonen, eftermiddagen, efter solnedgång och därefter bönen efter matställe i korridorerna för bönen och för meditationen för utgångspunktmosques/kyrkor/synagogue//arbete förlägger makes dem som är destinerade för att fokusera på det nödvändiga arbetet endast. Bönen och minnet för dem är ett medel av avkoppling, spänningen som och så vidare slår sönder, socialization och nattvardsgången. S-/hekoncentrat på de nödvändiga materierna i neighbourhooden och omsorgar för dem som befallde till och med budbärarna. Secondly abstain de från exhibitionist förbrukning efter befalla av goden/som Allah för inte transgressing av hejd/begränsar uppsättningen av Gud/Allah. For dressing they believe that the best dress is that of piety determined by the extent to which they follow the commands of God/ Allah. They abstain from adultery following the commands against the same as they believe in upholding the best standards of piety. They seek forgiveness from God/Allah for the sinful deeds executed intentionally or unintentionally. Thus adoption of prayer 5 times a day works as a guard for all the behaviours that have been prohibited in the holy books across the religions.
They donate out of the sustenance for poor following the commands for donation/zakat, khairat, fitra and sadaqah/daan.. They do not waste and thus observe the best of the ideals communicated through the slogan of ‘waste not, want not’. They indulge in ecologically safe consumption and believe in moderation in all matters. The middle path communicated through the commands of God/Allah is best ensured through the adoption of compulsory prayers 5 times a day. Youth, Men and men following the commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru for remembrance of Ishwar are likely to have the similar best behaviour patterns that are ecologically safe. Their average ecological footprints are likely to be very low. This needs to be established with communication of more ecological audits/ water audits/green audits/ energy audits/ paper audits/ food intake audits- a series of audits that youth, men and women following the command of God/Allah perform or they are supposed to perform. They ensure more and more pious behaviour, consumption and production patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations call for generation of more pious responses as they are directly linked to reduction in the emission of green house gases .
Inter faith commons
The inter faith commons need to be communicated and disseminated for not only global integration but also for addressing the critical ecological challenge that we as part of humanity face . Global warming is no longer a concern of a particular nations but it is an issue that we all as part of humanity face. Inter faith commons bring to the fore the understanding that we have common monotheistic content and messengers who upheld the best standards of justice, communication, and struggle in their life time and fought men and women after utilizing the best means of persuasion. Shiv Sankalp Taru has a very interesting verse that needs to be brought in light for men and women who have special affinity for the Sanskrit textual tradition. The timings are very much common to the timing followed by the Muslims. It is a command that needs to be followed by all. Muslim youths, men and women already follow that following the communication of God/BRAHMM communicated through the last messenger while believing that commands were communicated through all the messengers earlier in various languages and lands. The commands followed by Muslims are the commands that were communicated through the earlier messengers were sent to all the lands to people who spoke various languages following the related verse in the holy Qur’an. Commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru “Ishwar smarate panch awasare” calls for remembrance of Ishwar who was neither born nor gave on five occasions in a day, every day-all the 365/366 days of the year.
Command for establishing prayer at the appointed hours exists in the Holy Qur’an. According to one count there are command for establishing salah and give zakat more that 54 times in the holy Qur’an. There are commands in Bible and Torah. Buddhist monotheistic tradition calls for fighting the ‘mara’ in the Dhammapada and the atheistic understanding calls for adoption of middle path in all the matters. Practice of meditation leads to transformation of consumption patterns. Gurus in the Sikhism and Jain traditions are examples of austere life filled with prayer and penance. Guru Nanak was a practitioner of prayer and remembrance and he is revered for that and followed by millions of Sikhs around the world. For Sikhs, it is not impossible to follow the best practices of Guru Nanak who established himself as a role model for millions of Sikhs around the world. Following table shows the interfaith commons that can be adopted by all. This is being proposed considering the absence of coherent strategy in the atheistic post-modern discourse and contingencies of the global emergencies that must be addressed.

How an ecologically sustainable / contended reverent economy is built up with happiness for all
Ecological economists are currently debating issues with the Washington consensus economist and fighting the TINA (there is no alternative) syndrome .Noam Chomsky believes in the alternative economic order and so do youths of the world who through their calls are wanting to see the change and taking up non-violent advocacy and communication for the needful change . He also believes in the alternative political and cultural order .Binary economists are calling for abolition of interest charged on the loans as they believe creation of money from thin air in the books of the bankers is responsible for lots of ecologically hostile and socially inequitable practices in consumption, production and distribution and leisure use patterns
www.binaryeconomics.org .
Elimination of usury, fiat money propelling the ecologically hostile growth of urban habitats is being pointed out to be a critical factor in building a socially inclusive and ecologically safe economy. Similarly, debt free credit /interest free loans are being promoted for zero debt distressed suicides and bankruptcies.
Another major feature of contented and ecological sustainable economy is its capacity and intent for the protection of ecologically sustainable habitats with renewable resource based life support systems. It is simply impossible to envisage sustainability of non-renewable based transport systems in perpetuity. Search for nuclear energy and intense research activity in the renewable resource based energy is a proof for this. It needs to be noted that while nuclear energy in the short run appears to be carbon neutral, but in the long run, this is also not sustainable as there are limited resources for running the reactors. It is clear that resources such as uranium and thorium are not for all the time in the future. Therefore, the only solution is to decelerate and regulate the consumption of non-renewable resource based services and utilities through instituting an ecologically sustainable economy with the following features:
1.Debt free money and interest free loans with public control on the creation of money
2.Rights to renewable resource based habitats
3.Ecologically sustainable leisure use patterns
4.Distributive justice for renewable resource based livelihoods
5.Freedom from worried of energy crisis
6.Protection of Renewable resource based livelihoods
Freedom from worries of energy crisis affecting energy intensive transportation systems and habitats is an essential constituent of an ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy .At present most of the planners are concerned with the increasing energy requirements and for this some countries are ready to sacrifice their ideals and foundations of foreign policy. Left parties in India along with other parties have been vociferously opposing the loss of independence in the foreign policy of India. It is important to ensure sustainability for the renewable resource based life support systems and for this it is important to halt the loss of ecologically sustainable habitats and agricultural production methodologies. It is not possible to ensure sustainability for habitat designs that are based on unsustainable energy sources. Therefore, it is not possible to ensure sustainability for skyscraper laden urban habitats. Urban areas with energy intensive shopping malls need to be brought within ecologically sustainable limits. For this to happen, it is important to support adoption of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance framework.
Youths as drivers of change processes and communication for transition to ecologically safe life support systems locally and globally
Creating debt free money and ensuring interest free loans in not quite easy as that requires change of hearts and minds of men and women governing the various institutions who find the proposals difficult. Success of the proposals for ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy and polity requires multiplication of men and women who uphold the criterion of piety. It is important that the pious men and women across the world prohibiting peacefully what is wrong and prescribing what is right take charge of the governance and ensure that debt free money is created, faith based measures are adopted for mitigating the impacts of climate change. It is important to understand the need to prepare for life after death as that would impel men and women to adopt faith based measures more and more. Now, the signs of ecological distress are too compelling to avoid collective and personal actions for both mitigating and halting the impacts of climate change. Signs of ecological distress affecting the lives of billions call for taking corrective action locally and globally. Youths and corporations who are market for non-renewable energy intensive services and utilities need to be in charge. Atheistic postmodernist laissez faire regimen of cultural, political and moral governance needs to be critically reviewed as they damage the survival interests of the billions in here and now and that of future generations.
Hurdles in the way/ constraints
There are hurdles in the way for such a massive change taking place simultaneously and globally and most pernicious among the faith based notions are that of neo-liberal atheistic ideology where market and profit devoid of the concerns of eternal interests of mankind are permitted to have full freedom. It is dominance of atheistic neo-liberal ideology that prevents men and women from adopting the faith based pious measures for addressing the global and local challenges. Media channels such as MTV with adoring participation of youths indoctrinated in the atheistic visions of good life are busy in creating models of copy cat consumption and leisure use patterns globally with local vernacular channels following in line. Starting with English music content in 90’s now MTV has more of Hindi songs and dance forms with direct message for youths for copying the ecologically leisure use pattern including partying ,dancing and drinking of intoxicating drinks.
The second hurdle is the lack on coherent national and international policy with respect to addressing the climate change. While Kyoto protocol emission target call for reduction in the emission of green house gases, national development strategies continue to be inspired by the perception of competitive disadvantage. It is dangerous to have such incoherence for long time as the assessments of climate scientists are too compelling. Speaking on the occasion of a meeting to the launch the full report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on the impacts of global warming, Professor Martin Parry, a climate scientist with MET office in UK and co-chairman of the working group for the report said, “We are all used to talking about the impact of these changes coming in the lifetime of our children and grand children. Now we know that it is us.” He added that politicians had wasted a decade in focussing on ways to cut emissions, and had woken up recently to the need to adapt. He felt that “mitigation has got all the attention, but we cannot mitigate out of this problem. We have now a choice between a damaged world and a severely damaged world”. (The Hindu 20 September 2007)
The hurdle can be seen through assessing the levels of convergence for the various agencies and their functioning. While there are calls for higher rates of growth, they are not assessed in the light of the demands of ecological sustainability. Even the promotion of indexes such as “sustainability index” is not getting the required attention and it has been left to the discretion of the nations. There are evidences of lack of interagency cooperation and United National Development Programme (UNDP) appears to be working against the mandate of United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Environment assessments /ministries are slighted for benefiting ecologically hostile proposals/ policies. More often than not considerations of ecological sustainability are ignored for sanctioning ecologically hostile projects. This is evident from the sanction of Special Economic Zones despite the violent and non-violent resistance of farmers in India as they did not want to give up on their only source of ecologically sustainable livelihoods through farming. Committee for Campaign on National Himalayan Policy for the ecologically fragile Himalayan region in India has been calling for redefinition of development policy.
Therefore there is a need to institute a governance framework that is both ecologically safe and socially inclusive with reference to poor, old, children and women, ethnic and religious groups residing both in rural and urban habitats.
Labour League Foundation along with several youth led organisations considers the need for establishing ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance with the following features:
1.A governance that is cognizant of the needs of poor, rights of farmers and villages to ecologically sustainable livelihoods and habitats
2.Governance that eliminates fictitious inflationary money and usurious loans created from thin air and responsible for expansion of ecologically hostile habitats
3. Governance that promotes pious and ecologically safe consumption and production pattern
4.A government that plans for ecologically safe disaster free future for all
5.Governance that ensure ecologically safe distribution of natural resources
6.Governance that works for the interests of all
7.Governance that ensures policy making for the rights of children, future generations and poor
.
Diagram-4
Represents the key features of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance
Youth strategies
1.Multiplication of carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) across the cities and villages
These discussions initiated by youth and community elders in the neighbourhood where they gather for collective prayer, discussions and other social engagements. The recommendations of the discussions and simultaneous action compiled at various levels will be presented in the form of a memorandum to the local and world leader gathered in various summits and events accelerating the generation of ecologically safe survival and development policies and multiplication of ecologically safe survival policies. Local impacts will be generated through transformation of the leisure use pattern, consumption pattern, production systems ensuring minimisation of emission of green house gases and galvanising mass communication strategies for reduction in the personal contribution to the green house gases. The discussions on the urgency of reducing green house gases lead to the transformation of personal level consumption patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance (CEASIG), a Delhi based organisation believes that personal responses are critical for transformation of the consumption patterns. Unsustainable consumption patterns can be halted with the personal responses. Personal responses are always part of the global responses. Carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) will multiply ecologically safe responses across the urban and rural areas.
2.Multiplication of ecologically safe responses through promotion of green journalism
Production of analytical and advisory outputs through journalists is critical and they are one of the major stakeholders in shaping the opinions, consumption patterns. Journalists writing on lifestyle can substantially influence the consumption pattern of people in the urban areas. They can help in shaping the tastes and defining the choices. Journalists are important is generating democratic consensus for halting unsustainable consumption patterns. In our times, journalists play a very critical and sometimes they are responsible for defining the social, cultural and political trends. Youth organisations call for securing the future of villages, children and future generations with ecologically sustainable habitats, consumption patterns while ensuring inter-species justice.
3.Catalysing green politics
Labour league Foundation and Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations globally will be supporting the process for open and transparent politics for instilling the importance of ecologically safe green ideals. Youth organisations will be organising meetings with the representatives of the various media organisations and political parties and seek inclusion of ecological considerations in editorial policies and election manifestoes. Media organisations need to be visionary organisations and help in the preparation for an emerging future bereft of petro-modern consumption, transport, habitat and production systems.
4.Transformation of leisure use patterns
Youth organisations and youth wish to realise the millennium development goals for eliminating the unsustainable consumption patterns and wish to do so through suggesting transformation of the leisure use pattern. Suggestions for adoption of faith based measures that are common across the religious texts need to be taken seriously as part of global cultural commons. As indicated through the diagrammatic representation of the impact of adoption of faith based measures, youths call for generating interfaith consensus for acting simultaneously for transforming the leisure use patterns.
5.Calculation of ecological footprints, eliminating ecological rucksacks, returning to the ecologically sustainable habitats of the past for securing the ecological safe future of children and future generations
Youth call for dissemination of the practice of measuring ecological footprints for getting the desired actions for reducing the number of decisions involving emission of green house gases. Similarly, awareness on the loss of rocks due to excessive mining is critical for eliminating the amount of ecological losses. It is critical to value the conventional housing designs that use mud, grass, bamboo and wood. The definition of poverty considering the possession of adobe dwellings as a sign of poverty needs to be revised.
6.Ecological Audit of the consumption processes and patterns
The ecological audit is a concept proposed by Dr.Muhammad Mukhtar Alam, the chairman of Labour League Foundation
http://muhammad_mukhtar_alam.tigblog.org .This needs to be used along with the calculation of ecological footprints, environment audit/ green audit for assessing the impact of various decision and consumption patterns. Globalisation of the ecological audit at all levels is needed for supporting ecologically sustainable consumption patterns. This is important for realising the millennium development goals for environment sustainability by the year 2015. It is proposed that reports on sustainability index are incorporated in the formulation of the ecologically safe development policy.
7.Ecological Audit of the production systems / patterns
Production processes need to be assessed for ecological sustainability. There are ecologically sustainable and unsustainable production processes. The workshops with corporations interested in realising the millennium development goals will be conducted for getting in the changes in production processes. Youths believe based on the predictions on the oil reserves that Petro-modern production systems do not have a long future. Reducing energy demand for ecologically unsustainable production, consumption patterns is critical for halting the expansion of deserts and regularisation of rainfalls.
8.Ecological Audit of the transport systems / patterns
Renewable resource based transport systems are sustainable and non-renewable resource based transport systems are not sustainable. Ecological Audit of the transport systems needs to be encouraged for all organisations and ministries dealing with transport. Minimising / Eliminating travel is critical for ecologically sustainable habitats. We need to prepare for the end of petro-modern age.
9.Ecological Audit of the leisure use patterns-
There are leisure use patterns that do not use green house gas producing fossil fuels and there are leisure use patterns that are based on renewable resources and that does not involve consumption of fossil fuels. Workshop with the neighbourhood discussion leaders and resident welfare associations needs to be conducted for necessary transformation of leisure use patterns. Children, youths and elders need to be encouraged to adopt faith based measures for relaxation and stress busting. There are several studies that have demonstrated the impact of prayer and meditation on stress levels. Ecological audit of the leisure engagements need to be supported for getting the desired response for reduction in the emission of green house gases through transformation of leisure use patterns.
10.Interfaith dialogue for addressing the climate change, farmer’s suicides, and social security for workers in unorganized sector and transforming finance sector
Appreciation of the common commands for prayer, donation, compassion, charity and prohibition of usury, adultery, and homosexuality is needed with wider dissemination of the same. Adoption of these commands addresses the challenge of climate change, ecologically hostile usurious system, AIDS and so on. Inter-faith dialogue will ensure generation of responses across the faith groups. Delhi has a vibrant culture of interfaith dialogue. Sant Rajinder Singh of Sawan Kripal Ashram has been conducting the same for many years. Youth organisation need to work independently or in collaboration with faith based organisations for generating more forums of interfaith dialogue.
11.National/ regional/ city/ village based conventions on Inter Faith common responses for addressing the climate change-
Governments need to be encouraged for holding national conventions for generating consensus for adoption of faith based measures for addressing the climate change. There are cultural responses for fighting the atheistic neo-liberal cultural trends emanating from Europe and copied by youth in the name of globalisation and modernity. National Convention will address the issue of climate change through adopting the interfaith commons while preserving religious diversity and ecologically sustainable dietary, sartorial, linguistic diversities.
12.Carbon neutral Youth colloquiums / meetings / Majlis-e-Naujawan/ Yuva Harit Bharat Sabha/../../
Youths propose globalisation of local efforts for contributing in the mitigation of the impacts of climate change. Governments recognise the critical role of youths as more and more organisations led by youths are involved in consultation. It is suggested that Green youth forums with vernacular names need to be formed and discussions be held with active government support for getting the desired response pattern for halting the expansion of unsustainable consumption pattern and leisure use pattern through adoption of faith based measures.
Conclusion:
Imagining the responses of the weaker species in the face of man made onslaughts on the non-renewable resources , many youths across the world recognise the threats represented through the expression of anguish of the billions of poor who are angry, dispossessed and seeking an end to the process of non-renewable resource based usurious finance fuelled expansion of consumption and production pattern that is causing serious loss of livelihood for millions across the Earth and call upon all the governments, civil society organisations, corporations engaged in ecologically hostile production processes to boycott the ecologically hostile usurious finance and prevent further loss of ecologically sustainable habitats that are an immediate outcome of the expansion of ecologically hostile non-renewable resource based habitats. Nations need to compete in establishing the models of ecologically safe economy, polity and culture. Youth of the world are ready to become a leader along with Muslims, Greens and men and women of the world who wish to halt the political expansion of the atheistic neo-liberal ideology that is responsible for exacerbating the ecological distress demonstrated through the increased incidence of drought and expansion of deserts causing suffering for millions. Adaptation is the weakest response and youths call for halting the negative impacts of climate change. Nothing is impossible.

Засухами и desertification как удар засух изменения
климата была причина заботы в всей части мира на столетия. Будут справки для этих же в святейших текстах such as святейшее Torah, библии и святейшее Qur'. Yusuf/Иосиф, самый молодой сынок Yaqoob/Jacob, посыльный аллаха/бога записали для того чтобы советовать королю Египта для подготовлять на леты засухи on the basis of сновидение которое король увидел и упомянул к бывшему пленнику живя с Иосиф (мир на ем). Король подействовал на толковании его сновидения обеспеченного Иосиф (мир на ем) и подготовленного на 7 лет засухи. Подобно, desertification был процесс который был записан как один из процесса который находился дальше в различных частях мира. Засухи маркированы отсутствием дождя или недостаточного дождя ответственн для потери урожаев или недостаточного выхода урожая причиняя серьезную заботу для еды. Desertification соединен с потерей аграрных habitats. Потерей аграрных краев, крышкой пущи будет исход globalisation процессов промышленного производства основанных на ресурсах основанных невоспроизводимыми ресурсами. Изменением климата будет исход globalisation habitats невоспроизводимыа ресурсы основанных урбанских. Засуха находится, среди других факторов, ответственных для ухудшения почвы. Также было установлено что desertification увеличивает влияние зеленые выброса газа дома. Будет таким образом отношение причина и следствие между климатическими изменением и desertification.
Фокус справка с изложением фактической стороны вопроса молодости на засухе и desertification поэтому находится на following:
1. Делается оценка реакций к изменению климата,
2. оценки аппаратур для mitigating удары климатов,
3. hurdles ые в вставке излучения протокола Kyoto пристреливают
4. Ограничения в стратегия развития и предложении на экологически sustainable стратегия развития
5. Вызовите для принятия экологически безопасных и социально включительных рамок управления на экологически sustainability и социально справедливость
6. Новаторское вера основало стратегии
7. Стратегии молодости
Измените в климате с подъемом в температуру земли, изменения в картинах rainfall причиняет из-за излучения зеленых газов дома которые повышают температуру земли по мере того как количество зеленых произведенных газов дома очень больше чем емкость зеленой крышки для поглощения. Удары изменения климата чувствуются везде за национальными границами. Будут несколько записанных доказательств причиняло нации принять на возможность глобального грея .UN межправительственная, котор панель на изменении климата встречей и обдумывать на вопросе. Будут несколько национальных реакции и международных соглашений. Недавн Китай и США. выражает согласование работать на изменении климата. Говорящ иногда саммита APEC в Sydney, г-н Австралии. Hu Jintao поддерживало что «рамочная конвенция Организации Объединенных Наций должно остать главным образом каналом для международных усилий» адресовать изменение климата».
Четвертый отчет по оценке межправительственной панели на изменении климата (IPCC), который подчеркнуло далеко идущие последствия которые продолжали глобальный греть имели бы через мир, давал свежий impetus к находить разрешение к проблеме. Встреча саммита группы в составе 8 индустриализировала страны (G8), котор держат в Германии в месяце июня 2007 согласилась запустить новые инициативы для коллективнаяа мера как нациями богатые люди, так и fast-growing развивающаяся страна для того чтобы сразить изменение климата. В своем четвертом отчете по оценке, IPCC, международный орган которое имеет задачу весить научное доказательство на изменении климата, указанное к окончательному доказательству что глобальная атмосферическая концентрация ключевого парника наполняет газом such as двуокись углерода «увеличило маркированно в результате людских деятельностей с 1750». Эти газы поглощали жару земли в противном случае излучила бы вне в космос. Если нарастание газов парника и возникающий греть планеты были позволены продолжать unchecked, то гуманитарныа науки коллективная воля ряда государств должен смотреть на несколько последствий. Засухи и desertification находятся среди ударов изменения климата. Справка с изложением фактической стороны вопроса фокусирует на возможностях и предлагает разрешения для останавливать удары изменения климата через принятие измерений включая реакции основанные верой личные для преобразования экологически вражеских картин пользы потребления, продукции и отдыха.
Прогресса серии
до тех пор семинаров и конференций были организованы для адресовать глобальную возможность. Будут цели излучения протокола Kyoto для национальная стратегия было изобретено. Протокол Kyoto официально известный по мере того как рамочные конвенции ООН на изменении климата не были ратифицированы некоторыми из важных наций. США. и Австралия не ратифицирует протокол по мере того как они имеют воспринятия конкурсного недостатка. Будут согласования для уменьшения излучений к год 2020 и 2050. Существует vibrant мобилизация гражданского общества и мобилизация групп молодости. Несколько групп работают для advocacy политики для снабжать binding цели для излучения зеленых газов дома. Также существует динамический advocacy политики для R&D в возобновляющей энергии TAK, CTO будет множество энергии ресурса способного к возрождению основанной для заменять ть non-renewable энергию. Партии зеленых существуя в больше чем 88 странах вызывают для замены для парника производя источники энергии каменного угля основанные с возобновляющей энергией.
Панели ООН межправительственной на изменении климата наградила Нобелевскую премию вместе с Роберт Alом Gore для работы на изменении климата. Комитет Nobel норвежца процитировал получатели «для их усилий build up и рассеять большое знание о человеке сделали изменение климата и положить учредительства для измерений необходимо для того чтобы противодействовать такое изменение». Г-н. Al Gore ответил к цитации говоря «мы смотрим на поистине планетарную аварийную ситуацию: изменением климата не будет политический вопрос, будет нравственной и духовной возможностью к всей гуманности». Mr.R.K. Pachaury приз с Роберт Alом Gore по мере того как руководитель межправительственной панели на изменении климата ответил что приз мира Nobel добавил чувство срочности к драке против глобальный греть. IPCC, установленное вверх в 1988, tasked с давать policymakers сводку самого последнего знания о изменении климата. Головка Gavin Edwards климата и энергия агитируют, Greenpeace международное talk about правительства через мир могут сделать для того чтобы mitigate проблема point out потребность пересмотреть термины протокола который подтверждает продифференцированную ответственность для различных наций отвечая к изменению климата. Он point out потребность для развивающаяся страна сделать все needful и не повторить ошибки начатых стран стран - «неправительственныа организации реально фокусировали на индустриализированных нациях должны сделать долю льва tackling климат изменять-что будет ясно. Но также ясно что развивающаяся страна как Индия и Китай постоянн продолжаются превратиться с делом как обычный старый подход к развития типа. Они смогли повторять такие же ошибки, котор запад совершал в last few декадах. И, если Индия, Китай и другие страны продолжаются совершить те ошибки, то regardless of запад делает для того чтобы tackle изменение климата он будет невозможн».
Аппаратуры защищенные для mitigating технологии энергии
изменения климата эффективные развиваются для уменьшать потребление энергии. Светильники CFL повышаются как часть общих назначений и оборудований энергии эффективных для способствовать в уменьшении зеленые выброса газа дома. Там также цели для замены возобновляющей энергии non-renewable throng энергии. Партия зеленых в замене seek Германии полномасштабной non-renewable энергии возобновляющей энергией к год 2020. Будут договорами были после того как они подписаны однако они вероисповедно не последованы за. Больше фондировать изыскивается для исследования для globalizing обслуживаний и общих назначений возобновляющей энергии основанных. Binding цели на уменьшении излучения не там как будет очевидно от рекомендации aspirational саммита APEC заключенного недавн в Sydney как часть процессов для рамочной конвенции ООН на изменении климата, котор нужно держать в Bali в месяце декабря 2007. Будут плана действий devoid binding политик и цели для излучения зеленых газов дома.
Если нарастание газов парника и возникающего греть планеты было позволено продолжать unchecked, то мы собирательно будем иметь последствия in terms of потеря экологически sustainable livelihoods, habitats, отказы урожая, inequitable распределение экологически безопасных habitats через мир. Оно well-known что глобальное экономический бум ускоряет ход зеленые выброса газа дома с всегда расширяя non-renewable основанными энергией урбанских картинами habitats, потребления, продукции и перехода.
Проблемами в стратегиях
там будут стратегии были определены с глобальный опознаванием потребности уменьшить зеленые излучения дома. Even so, они получают нанесенными поражение по мере того как цели установлены с исходами и зрениями противоречить. Например, вычислением GDP не рассматривает удар на окружающей среде и экологических ценах и таким образом не будет поэтому факторы в вычислении валового национального продукта.

Политические партии продолжаются быть воодушевлянным недолгосрочными зрениями и не будет довольно их недостатком. SIMPOL работает с избирателями гловально для влиять на одновременное принятие политик. Будет потребность обеспечить больше и больше одновременные действия гловально для мирных действий, решений, выборов которые способствуют в собирательной экологической безопасности. Политическим партиям нужно быть образованным для поддерживать политики обеспечивают предохранение экологически sustainable livelihoods и habitats. Трудное учредительство лиги, доверие Sufi и CEASIG как часть национального форума работников пущи и пуща населяют поддерживать права земли в их традиционных habitats через уничтожать удар колониальных законодательств которые лишили их их права к землям homestead и земледелия. Партии зеленых относятся о экологически безопасных вопросах но их избиратели несколько. Большая часть из политических партий связана с вопросами appealingее к элите и среднему классу в немедленно настоящем моменте.
Другим главным hurdle испытанным в дороге получать глобальные реакции для mitigating изменение климата будет продолжаемый маркетинг картин потребления каменного угля интенсивнейших, конструкций урбанских habitats, парадигмы развития, конкурсных национализмов для изыскивать отметки lifestyles каменного угля интенсивнейших, уценки экологически sustainable картин потребления земледелия. Существует продолжаемая политическая поддержка для культурных продуктов и процессы inimical к национальной и глобальный экологической безопасности. Пока будут измерения для экологических оценок удара окружающей среды удара но после этого маркированно существует отсутствие забот для адресовать причины корня экологического и укомплектовывает личным составом сделанные бедствия. Marginalisation основанных верой групп молодости безбожным intelligentsia продолжается быть проблемой нужно быть адресованным. Им нужно быть принесенным на борту.
Экологически безопасная парадигма развития национальнаяа стратегия
рассматривая вышеуказанное, предложено что экологически безопасная парадигма развития национальнаяа стратегия содержит following характеристики:
1. Маркетинг экологически безопасного потребления, продукции, пользы отдыха сделал по образцу

к уменьшению
разрешения в излучении зеленых газов дома до повышать измерения и картины решения умеряют потребление обслуживаний и общих назначений основанных на потреблении зеленой дома испуская каменные угли критически что все связанные с гарантировать гуманитарныа науки от отрицательных ударов изменения климата, уменьшая падение засухи и останавливая расширение пустынь и предотвращая потерю экологически sustainable habitats и livelihoods. Considering аварийные ситуации, поспорено что принятие веры основало измерения для преобразовывая картин пользы отдыха рассмотрено на приоритете. Следуя за диаграмма демонстрирует удар и отношения принятие молитвы и раздумья 5 приурочивает день на картинах потребления.
Люди и женщины следуя за командами на молитва и раздумье 5 приурочивают день не правоподобны для того чтобы потакать в потреблении серий захватов работы столба вечера требуют международных перемещений по мере того как это помешало бы в соблюдении команды для молитвы /salah /meditation /yoga на назначенных часах. Его можно легко увидеть что принятие этой команды обеспечит преобразование серий потребления отдыха каменного угля интенсивнейшего such as идти к адвокатскому сословию и танцевальный зал. Это можно принять вместе с несколькими других реакций личных и общины для уменьшения излучения зеленых домов. Кажется, что будут реакции основанные верой более эффективны и им нужно быть повышенным как для этого не будет потребности сделать дополнительные усилия. Кажется, что будет ассоциация консерватизма `' больше одна из реакции некоторые люди и женщины могут иметь для сообщения измерений основанных верой. Но после этого важно увидеть важность принятия измерения основанного верой для экологических efficacy, безопасности, пригодности, целесообазности и ценностьи. Реакции основанные верой общие и им как раз нужно быть повышенным для их вклада в экологическом wellbeing на уровнях личных, общины, социальных, национальных и глобального. Будет срочная необходимость для этих же.
Личным молитва основанная верой
реакций 5 приурочивает день для преобразовывая картины пользы отдыха узнавая что картины пользы отдыха одним из ключевых социальных захватов уничтожают большое часть из обслуживаний и общих назначений каменного угля основанных. Команда для молитвы общяя через вероисповедные тексты хотя она кажется наиболее видно напрактикованной людьми и женщинами следуя за сообщениями Muhammad, котор верят, что был последний посыльный Muslims (люди и женщины представляя к the will бога/аллаха. /.
Как принятие молитвы преобразовывает картины потребления и люди и женщины картин пользы отдыха экологически
вражеского перемещения интенсивнейшие практикуя молитву (salah в Arabic) не посещают танцевальный зал и адвокатские сословия по мере того как они больше относятся о молить в времени. Молитва в утре, через после полудня, после захода солнца и после этого молитвы после обеда в залах церков мечетей домов/молитве и раздумье синагоги/месте работы делает их прыгнуть к фокусу на обязательно работе только. Молитвой и remembrance для их будут середина релаксации, усилия busting, социализации, и общности и так далее. Шлихи S/he на необходимых делах в районе и внимательностях для их как управили через посыльные. Secondly, они воздерживаются от exhibitionist потребления следуя за командой бога аллаха для transgressing комплект пределов/пределов Богом/аллахом. For dressing they believe that the best dress is that of piety determined by the extent to which they follow the commands of God/ Allah. They abstain from adultery following the commands against the same as they believe in upholding the best standards of piety. They seek forgiveness from God/Allah for the sinful deeds executed intentionally or unintentionally. Thus adoption of prayer 5 times a day works as a guard for all the behaviours that have been prohibited in the holy books across the religions.
They donate out of the sustenance for poor following the commands for donation/zakat, khairat, fitra and sadaqah/daan.. They do not waste and thus observe the best of the ideals communicated through the slogan of ‘waste not, want not’. They indulge in ecologically safe consumption and believe in moderation in all matters. The middle path communicated through the commands of God/Allah is best ensured through the adoption of compulsory prayers 5 times a day. Youth, Men and men following the commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru for remembrance of Ishwar are likely to have the similar best behaviour patterns that are ecologically safe. Their average ecological footprints are likely to be very low. This needs to be established with communication of more ecological audits/ water audits/green audits/ energy audits/ paper audits/ food intake audits- a series of audits that youth, men and women following the command of God/Allah perform or they are supposed to perform. They ensure more and more pious behaviour, consumption and production patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations call for generation of more pious responses as they are directly linked to reduction in the emission of green house gases .
Inter faith commons
The inter faith commons need to be communicated and disseminated for not only global integration but also for addressing the critical ecological challenge that we as part of humanity face . Global warming is no longer a concern of a particular nations but it is an issue that we all as part of humanity face. Inter faith commons bring to the fore the understanding that we have common monotheistic content and messengers who upheld the best standards of justice, communication, and struggle in their life time and fought men and women after utilizing the best means of persuasion. Shiv Sankalp Taru has a very interesting verse that needs to be brought in light for men and women who have special affinity for the Sanskrit textual tradition. The timings are very much common to the timing followed by the Muslims. It is a command that needs to be followed by all. Muslim youths, men and women already follow that following the communication of God/BRAHMM communicated through the last messenger while believing that commands were communicated through all the messengers earlier in various languages and lands. The commands followed by Muslims are the commands that were communicated through the earlier messengers were sent to all the lands to people who spoke various languages following the related verse in the holy Qur’an. Commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru “Ishwar smarate panch awasare” calls for remembrance of Ishwar who was neither born nor gave on five occasions in a day, every day-all the 365/366 days of the year.
Command for establishing prayer at the appointed hours exists in the Holy Qur’an. According to one count there are command for establishing salah and give zakat more that 54 times in the holy Qur’an. There are commands in Bible and Torah. Buddhist monotheistic tradition calls for fighting the ‘mara’ in the Dhammapada and the atheistic understanding calls for adoption of middle path in all the matters. Practice of meditation leads to transformation of consumption patterns. Gurus in the Sikhism and Jain traditions are examples of austere life filled with prayer and penance. Guru Nanak was a practitioner of prayer and remembrance and he is revered for that and followed by millions of Sikhs around the world. For Sikhs, it is not impossible to follow the best practices of Guru Nanak who established himself as a role model for millions of Sikhs around the world. Following table shows the interfaith commons that can be adopted by all. This is being proposed considering the absence of coherent strategy in the atheistic post-modern discourse and contingencies of the global emergencies that must be addressed.

How an ecologically sustainable / contended reverent economy is built up with happiness for all
Ecological economists are currently debating issues with the Washington consensus economist and fighting the TINA (there is no alternative) syndrome .Noam Chomsky believes in the alternative economic order and so do youths of the world who through their calls are wanting to see the change and taking up non-violent advocacy and communication for the needful change . He also believes in the alternative political and cultural order .Binary economists are calling for abolition of interest charged on the loans as they believe creation of money from thin air in the books of the bankers is responsible for lots of ecologically hostile and socially inequitable practices in consumption, production and distribution and leisure use patterns
www.binaryeconomics.org .
Elimination of usury, fiat money propelling the ecologically hostile growth of urban habitats is being pointed out to be a critical factor in building a socially inclusive and ecologically safe economy. Similarly, debt free credit /interest free loans are being promoted for zero debt distressed suicides and bankruptcies.
Another major feature of contented and ecological sustainable economy is its capacity and intent for the protection of ecologically sustainable habitats with renewable resource based life support systems. It is simply impossible to envisage sustainability of non-renewable based transport systems in perpetuity. Search for nuclear energy and intense research activity in the renewable resource based energy is a proof for this. It needs to be noted that while nuclear energy in the short run appears to be carbon neutral, but in the long run, this is also not sustainable as there are limited resources for running the reactors. It is clear that resources such as uranium and thorium are not for all the time in the future. Therefore, the only solution is to decelerate and regulate the consumption of non-renewable resource based services and utilities through instituting an ecologically sustainable economy with the following features:
1.Debt free money and interest free loans with public control on the creation of money
2.Rights to renewable resource based habitats
3.Ecologically sustainable leisure use patterns
4.Distributive justice for renewable resource based livelihoods
5.Freedom from worried of energy crisis
6.Protection of Renewable resource based livelihoods
Freedom from worries of energy crisis affecting energy intensive transportation systems and habitats is an essential constituent of an ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy .At present most of the planners are concerned with the increasing energy requirements and for this some countries are ready to sacrifice their ideals and foundations of foreign policy. Left parties in India along with other parties have been vociferously opposing the loss of independence in the foreign policy of India. It is important to ensure sustainability for the renewable resource based life support systems and for this it is important to halt the loss of ecologically sustainable habitats and agricultural production methodologies. It is not possible to ensure sustainability for habitat designs that are based on unsustainable energy sources. Therefore, it is not possible to ensure sustainability for skyscraper laden urban habitats. Urban areas with energy intensive shopping malls need to be brought within ecologically sustainable limits. For this to happen, it is important to support adoption of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance framework.
Youths as drivers of change processes and communication for transition to ecologically safe life support systems locally and globally
Creating debt free money and ensuring interest free loans in not quite easy as that requires change of hearts and minds of men and women governing the various institutions who find the proposals difficult. Success of the proposals for ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy and polity requires multiplication of men and women who uphold the criterion of piety. It is important that the pious men and women across the world prohibiting peacefully what is wrong and prescribing what is right take charge of the governance and ensure that debt free money is created, faith based measures are adopted for mitigating the impacts of climate change. It is important to understand the need to prepare for life after death as that would impel men and women to adopt faith based measures more and more. Now, the signs of ecological distress are too compelling to avoid collective and personal actions for both mitigating and halting the impacts of climate change. Signs of ecological distress affecting the lives of billions call for taking corrective action locally and globally. Youths and corporations who are market for non-renewable energy intensive services and utilities need to be in charge. Atheistic postmodernist laissez faire regimen of cultural, political and moral governance needs to be critically reviewed as they damage the survival interests of the billions in here and now and that of future generations.
Hurdles in the way/ constraints
There are hurdles in the way for such a massive change taking place simultaneously and globally and most pernicious among the faith based notions are that of neo-liberal atheistic ideology where market and profit devoid of the concerns of eternal interests of mankind are permitted to have full freedom. It is dominance of atheistic neo-liberal ideology that prevents men and women from adopting the faith based pious measures for addressing the global and local challenges. Media channels such as MTV with adoring participation of youths indoctrinated in the atheistic visions of good life are busy in creating models of copy cat consumption and leisure use patterns globally with local vernacular channels following in line. Starting with English music content in 90’s now MTV has more of Hindi songs and dance forms with direct message for youths for copying the ecologically leisure use pattern including partying ,dancing and drinking of intoxicating drinks.
The second hurdle is the lack on coherent national and international policy with respect to addressing the climate change. While Kyoto protocol emission target call for reduction in the emission of green house gases, national development strategies continue to be inspired by the perception of competitive disadvantage. It is dangerous to have such incoherence for long time as the assessments of climate scientists are too compelling. Speaking on the occasion of a meeting to the launch the full report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on the impacts of global warming, Professor Martin Parry, a climate scientist with MET office in UK and co-chairman of the working group for the report said, “We are all used to talking about the impact of these changes coming in the lifetime of our children and grand children. Now we know that it is us.” He added that politicians had wasted a decade in focussing on ways to cut emissions, and had woken up recently to the need to adapt. He felt that “mitigation has got all the attention, but we cannot mitigate out of this problem. We have now a choice between a damaged world and a severely damaged world”. (The Hindu 20 September 2007)
The hurdle can be seen through assessing the levels of convergence for the various agencies and their functioning. While there are calls for higher rates of growth, they are not assessed in the light of the demands of ecological sustainability. Even the promotion of indexes such as “sustainability index” is not getting the required attention and it has been left to the discretion of the nations. There are evidences of lack of interagency cooperation and United National Development Programme (UNDP) appears to be working against the mandate of United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Environment assessments /ministries are slighted for benefiting ecologically hostile proposals/ policies. More often than not considerations of ecological sustainability are ignored for sanctioning ecologically hostile projects. This is evident from the sanction of Special Economic Zones despite the violent and non-violent resistance of farmers in India as they did not want to give up on their only source of ecologically sustainable livelihoods through farming. Committee for Campaign on National Himalayan Policy for the ecologically fragile Himalayan region in India has been calling for redefinition of development policy.
Therefore there is a need to institute a governance framework that is both ecologically safe and socially inclusive with reference to poor, old, children and women, ethnic and religious groups residing both in rural and urban habitats.
Labour League Foundation along with several youth led organisations considers the need for establishing ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance with the following features:
1.A governance that is cognizant of the needs of poor, rights of farmers and villages to ecologically sustainable livelihoods and habitats
2.Governance that eliminates fictitious inflationary money and usurious loans created from thin air and responsible for expansion of ecologically hostile habitats
3. Governance that promotes pious and ecologically safe consumption and production pattern
4.A government that plans for ecologically safe disaster free future for all
5.Governance that ensure ecologically safe distribution of natural resources
6.Governance that works for the interests of all
7.Governance that ensures policy making for the rights of children, future generations and poor
.
Diagram-4
Represents the key features of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance
Youth strategies
1.Multiplication of carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) across the cities and villages
These discussions initiated by youth and community elders in the neighbourhood where they gather for collective prayer, discussions and other social engagements. The recommendations of the discussions and simultaneous action compiled at various levels will be presented in the form of a memorandum to the local and world leader gathered in various summits and events accelerating the generation of ecologically safe survival and development policies and multiplication of ecologically safe survival policies. Local impacts will be generated through transformation of the leisure use pattern, consumption pattern, production systems ensuring minimisation of emission of green house gases and galvanising mass communication strategies for reduction in the personal contribution to the green house gases. The discussions on the urgency of reducing green house gases lead to the transformation of personal level consumption patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance (CEASIG), a Delhi based organisation believes that personal responses are critical for transformation of the consumption patterns. Unsustainable consumption patterns can be halted with the personal responses. Personal responses are always part of the global responses. Carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) will multiply ecologically safe responses across the urban and rural areas.
2.Multiplication of ecologically safe responses through promotion of green journalism
Production of analytical and advisory outputs through journalists is critical and they are one of the major stakeholders in shaping the opinions, consumption patterns. Journalists writing on lifestyle can substantially influence the consumption pattern of people in the urban areas. They can help in shaping the tastes and defining the choices. Journalists are important is generating democratic consensus for halting unsustainable consumption patterns. In our times, journalists play a very critical and sometimes they are responsible for defining the social, cultural and political trends. Youth organisations call for securing the future of villages, children and future generations with ecologically sustainable habitats, consumption patterns while ensuring inter-species justice.
3.Catalysing green politics
Labour league Foundation and Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations globally will be supporting the process for open and transparent politics for instilling the importance of ecologically safe green ideals. Youth organisations will be organising meetings with the representatives of the various media organisations and political parties and seek inclusion of ecological considerations in editorial policies and election manifestoes. Media organisations need to be visionary organisations and help in the preparation for an emerging future bereft of petro-modern consumption, transport, habitat and production systems.
4.Transformation of leisure use patterns
Youth organisations and youth wish to realise the millennium development goals for eliminating the unsustainable consumption patterns and wish to do so through suggesting transformation of the leisure use pattern. Suggestions for adoption of faith based measures that are common across the religious texts need to be taken seriously as part of global cultural commons. As indicated through the diagrammatic representation of the impact of adoption of faith based measures, youths call for generating interfaith consensus for acting simultaneously for transforming the leisure use patterns.
5.Calculation of ecological footprints, eliminating ecological rucksacks, returning to the ecologically sustainable habitats of the past for securing the ecological safe future of children and future generations
Youth call for dissemination of the practice of measuring ecological footprints for getting the desired actions for reducing the number of decisions involving emission of green house gases. Similarly, awareness on the loss of rocks due to excessive mining is critical for eliminating the amount of ecological losses. It is critical to value the conventional housing designs that use mud, grass, bamboo and wood. The definition of poverty considering the possession of adobe dwellings as a sign of poverty needs to be revised.
6.Ecological Audit of the consumption processes and patterns
The ecological audit is a concept proposed by Dr.Muhammad Mukhtar Alam, the chairman of Labour League Foundation
http://muhammad_mukhtar_alam.tigblog.org .This needs to be used along with the calculation of ecological footprints, environment audit/ green audit for assessing the impact of various decision and consumption patterns. Globalisation of the ecological audit at all levels is needed for supporting ecologically sustainable consumption patterns. This is important for realising the millennium development goals for environment sustainability by the year 2015. It is proposed that reports on sustainability index are incorporated in the formulation of the ecologically safe development policy.
7.Ecological Audit of the production systems / patterns
Production processes need to be assessed for ecological sustainability. There are ecologically sustainable and unsustainable production processes. The workshops with corporations interested in realising the millennium development goals will be conducted for getting in the changes in production processes. Youths believe based on the predictions on the oil reserves that Petro-modern production systems do not have a long future. Reducing energy demand for ecologically unsustainable production, consumption patterns is critical for halting the expansion of deserts and regularisation of rainfalls.
8.Ecological Audit of the transport systems / patterns
Renewable resource based transport systems are sustainable and non-renewable resource based transport systems are not sustainable. Ecological Audit of the transport systems needs to be encouraged for all organisations and ministries dealing with transport. Minimising / Eliminating travel is critical for ecologically sustainable habitats. We need to prepare for the end of petro-modern age.
9.Ecological Audit of the leisure use patterns-
There are leisure use patterns that do not use green house gas producing fossil fuels and there are leisure use patterns that are based on renewable resources and that does not involve consumption of fossil fuels. Workshop with the neighbourhood discussion leaders and resident welfare associations needs to be conducted for necessary transformation of leisure use patterns. Children, youths and elders need to be encouraged to adopt faith based measures for relaxation and stress busting. There are several studies that have demonstrated the impact of prayer and meditation on stress levels. Ecological audit of the leisure engagements need to be supported for getting the desired response for reduction in the emission of green house gases through transformation of leisure use patterns.
10.Interfaith dialogue for addressing the climate change, farmer’s suicides, and social security for workers in unorganized sector and transforming finance sector
Appreciation of the common commands for prayer, donation, compassion, charity and prohibition of usury, adultery, and homosexuality is needed with wider dissemination of the same. Adoption of these commands addresses the challenge of climate change, ecologically hostile usurious system, AIDS and so on. Inter-faith dialogue will ensure generation of responses across the faith groups. Delhi has a vibrant culture of interfaith dialogue. Sant Rajinder Singh of Sawan Kripal Ashram has been conducting the same for many years. Youth organisation need to work independently or in collaboration with faith based organisations for generating more forums of interfaith dialogue.
11.National/ regional/ city/ village based conventions on Inter Faith common responses for addressing the climate change-
Governments need to be encouraged for holding national conventions for generating consensus for adoption of faith based measures for addressing the climate change. There are cultural responses for fighting the atheistic neo-liberal cultural trends emanating from Europe and copied by youth in the name of globalisation and modernity. National Convention will address the issue of climate change through adopting the interfaith commons while preserving religious diversity and ecologically sustainable dietary, sartorial, linguistic diversities.
12.Carbon neutral Youth colloquiums / meetings / Majlis-e-Naujawan/ Yuva Harit Bharat Sabha/../../
Youths propose globalisation of local efforts for contributing in the mitigation of the impacts of climate change. Governments recognise the critical role of youths as more and more organisations led by youths are involved in consultation. It is suggested that Green youth forums with vernacular names need to be formed and discussions be held with active government support for getting the desired response pattern for halting the expansion of unsustainable consumption pattern and leisure use pattern through adoption of faith based measures.
Conclusion:
Imagining the responses of the weaker species in the face of man made onslaughts on the non-renewable resources , many youths across the world recognise the threats represented through the expression of anguish of the billions of poor who are angry, dispossessed and seeking an end to the process of non-renewable resource based usurious finance fuelled expansion of consumption and production pattern that is causing serious loss of livelihood for millions across the Earth and call upon all the governments, civil society organisations, corporations engaged in ecologically hostile production processes to boycott the ecologically hostile usurious finance and prevent further loss of ecologically sustainable habitats that are an immediate outcome of the expansion of ecologically hostile non-renewable resource based habitats. Nations need to compete in establishing the models of ecologically safe economy, polity and culture. Youth of the world are ready to become a leader along with Muslims, Greens and men and women of the world who wish to halt the political expansion of the atheistic neo-liberal ideology that is responsible for exacerbating the ecological distress demonstrated through the increased incidence of drought and expansion of deserts causing suffering for millions. Adaptation is the weakest response and youths call for halting the negative impacts of climate change. Nothing is impossible.

ROL VAN JONGEREN IN HET MINIMALISEREN VAN DE WEERSLAG VAN DROOGTE EN HET STOPPEN VAN DE UITBREIDING VAN WOESTIJNEN THROUHG DIE DE VERANDERING VAN HET KLIMAAT LANGS RICHTEN ECOLOGISCH HET OMZETTEN VAN DE ONHOUDBARE PATRONEN VAN DE CONSUMPTIE, VAN DE PROD

De droogten en de ontvolking als effect van de Droogten van de klimaat
verandering zijn een oorzaak van belang in al deel van de wereld eeuwenlang geweest. Er zijn verwijzingen voor het zelfde in de heilige teksten zoals heilige Torah, de Bijbel en heilige Qur'. Yusuf/Joseph, the youngest son of Yaqoob/Jacob, the messenger of Allah/God has recorded to have advised the king of Egypt for preparing for the drought years on the basis of a dream that the King saw and mentioned to former prisoner living with Joseph (peace be upon him). De koning handelde op de interpretatie van zijn droom die door Joseph (de vrede is op hem) wordt verstrekt en die op 7 jaar van droogte wordt voorbereid. Op dezelfde manier is de ontvolking een proces geweest dat als één van het proces is geregistreerd dat in diverse delen van wereld is geweest. De droogten worden gemerkt door de afwezigheid van regen of ontoereikende regen die van verlies van gewassen of ontoereikende oogst die een ernstige zorg voor voedsel veroorzaakt de oorzaak is. De ontvolking is verbonden met verlies van landbouwhabitat. Het verlies van landbouwgronden, bosdekking is een resultaat van globalisering van industriële productieprocessen die op niet vernieuwbare middelen gebaseerde middelen worden gebaseerd. De verandering van het klimaat is een resultaat van de globalisering van niet vernieuwbare grondstoffen verwerkende stedelijke habitat. De droogte is, onder andere factoren de oorzaak, van gronddegradatie. Men heeft ook vastgesteld dat de ontvolking het effect van de groene emissies van het huisgas verhoogt. Er is zo een relatie van oorzaak en effect tussen klimaatverandering en ontvolking.
De nadruk van het document van de de jeugdpositie bij droogte en de ontvolking is daarom op het volgende:
1. De beoordeling van reacties op klimaatverandering wordt gegeven,
2. beoordelingen van de instrumenten voor het verlichten van de effecten van klimaten,
3. hindernissen die in de implementatie van van de het protocolemissie van Kyoto doelstellingen 4
onder ogen worden gezien. Beperkingen in de het ontwikkelingsstrategie en voorstel voor ecologisch duurzame ontwikkelingsstrategie
5. Vraag naar goedkeuring van ecologisch veilig en sociaal inclusief bestuurkader voor ecologisch duurzaamheid en sociaal gelijkheid
6. Innovatieve geloof gebaseerde strategieën
7. De Strategieën van de jeugd
De verandering in het klimaat met stijging van temperatuur van aarde, wordt verandering in regenvalpatronen veroorzaakt wegens emissie van groene huisgassen die de temperatuur van aarde opheffen aangezien de hoeveelheid groene geproduceerde huisgassen veel meer dan de capaciteit van de groene dekking voor het absorberen is. De effecten van de klimaatverandering worden gevoeld overal over de nationale grenzen. Er is verscheidene geregistreerd bewijsmateriaal dat naties ertoe heeft gebracht om de uitdaging over te nemen van het globale verwarmen .UN het intergouvernementele paneel bij de klimaatverandering heeft ontmoet en op de kwestie overlegd. Er zijn verscheidene nationale reacties en internationale overeenstemming. Onlangs China en de V.S. overeenkomst om bij de klimaatverandering heeft uitgedrukt te werken. Sprekend bij gelegenheid van de top van APEC M. in van Sydney, Australië. HU Jintao handhaafde dat de „overeenkomst van het Kader van de Verenigde Naties het belangrijkste kanaal voor de internationale inspanningen“ zou moeten blijven om klimaatverandering“ te richten.
Het vierde Rapport van de Beoordeling van het Intergouvernementele Comité bij de Verandering van het Klimaat (IPCC), die de verreikende gevolgen benadrukte die het globale verwarmen zouden hebben over de wereld voortzetten, heeft gegeven verse impuls aan het vinden van oplossing voor het probleem. De topvergadering van de Groep van Acht industrielanden (G8) die in Duitsland in de maand van Juni 2007 wordt gehouden kwam overeen om nieuwe initiatieven voor collectieve actie door zowel rijke naties als snelgroeiende ontwikkelingslanden te lanceren om klimaatverandering te bestrijden. In zijn Vierde Rapport van de Beoordeling, IPCC, de internationale instelling die de taak heeft om wetenschappelijk bewijsmateriaal bij de klimaatverandering te wegen, die aan definitief bewijsmateriaal wordt gericht dat de globale atmosferische concentratie van zeer belangrijke broeikasgassen zoals kooldioxide „duidelijk als resultaat van menselijke activiteiten sinds 1750“ was gestegen. Deze gassen sloten de hitte van de Aarde op die anders uit in ruimte zou uitgestraald hebben. Als de opbouw van broeikasgassen en het resulterende verwarmen van de planeet werden toegestaan om ongecontroleerd voort te zetten, zal het mensdom collectief verscheidene gevolgen moeten onder ogen zien. De droogten en de ontvolking zijn onder de effecten van klimaatverandering. Het positiedocument concentreert zich op de uitdagingen en biedt oplossingen voor het stoppen van de effecten van klimaatverandering door goedkeuring van maatregelen met inbegrip van de geloof gebaseerde persoonlijke reacties voor transformatie van ecologisch vijandige consumptie, productie en van het vrije tijdsgebruik patronen aan.
Veel van de vooruitgang
tot dusver seminaries en conferenties zijn georganiseerd voor het richten van de globale uitdaging. Er zijn de doelstellingen van de het protocolemissie van Kyoto waarvoor de nationale strategieën zijn bedacht. Het Protocol van Kyoto dat formeel als de Overeenkomsten van het V.N.- Kader bij de Verandering van het Klimaat wordt bekend is niet bekrachtigd door enkele belangrijke naties. De V.S. en Australië bekrachtigt niet het protocol aangezien zij waarnemingen van concurrentienadeel hebben. Er zijn overeenstemming voor het verminderen van de emissies tegen het jaar 2020 en 2050. Er bestaan een trillende mobilisering van de burgerlijke maatschappij en de mobilisering van de jeugdgroepen. Verscheidene groepen werken voor het beleidsbepleiten voor het uitvoeren van de bindende doelstellingen voor de emissie van groene huisgassen. Er bestaat ook een dynamisch beleidsbepleiten voor R&D in vernieuwbare energie zodat er overvloed van vernieuwbare grondstoffen verwerkende energie voor het vervangen van de niet vernieuwbare energie is. De groene partijen bestaand in meer dan 88 landen verzoeken vervanging voor serre die fossiele brandstof gebaseerde energiebronnen met vernieuwbare energie produceert.
Het Intergouvernementele Comité van de V.N. bij de Verandering van het Klimaat is toegekend de Prijs van Nobel samen met Robert Al Gore voor het werken aan de klimaatverandering. Het Noorse Comité van Nobel haalde de ontvangers „voor hun inspanningen aan om grotere kennis over mens aangebrachte klimaatverandering op te bouwen en te verspreiden en fundamenten voor de maatregelen te leggen die nodig zijn om zulk een verandering“ tegen te gaan. M. Al Gore antwoordde aan het citaat zeggend „wij een echt planetarische noodsituatie onder ogen zien: de klimaatverandering is geen politieke kwestie, is het een morele en geestelijke uitdaging aan al mensdom“. Mr.R.K. Pachaury die de prijs met Robert Al Gore deelt als Voorzitter van Intergouvernementeel Comité bij de klimaatverandering antwoordde dat de prijs van de Vrede van Nobel betekenis van urgentie aan de bestrijding van het globale verwarmen zou toevoegen. IPCC, opgezet in 1988, wordt belast met het geven van beleidsvormers een samenvatting van de recentste kennis over klimaatverandering. Hoofd van Gavin Edwards van de Campagne van het Klimaat en van de Energie, het Internationale spreken van Greenpeace over wat de overheden over de wereld kunnen doen het probleem ondervangen wees op de behoefte om termijnen van protocol opnieuw in overweging te nemen dat de onderscheiden verantwoordelijkheid voor de diverse naties erkent die aan de klimaatverandering antwoorden. Hij wijst op de behoefte aan de ontwikkelingslanden om al needful te doen en de fouten van de ontwikkelde landen niet te herhalen - de „niet-gouvernementele organisaties hebben zich werkelijk geconcentreerd op de geïndustrialiseerdeb naties die leeuwedeel moeten doen van het aanpakken van het klimaat verandering-dat duidelijk is. Maar wat ook duidelijk is is dat de ontwikkelingslanden zoals India en China constant blijven ontwikkelend met de zaken als gebruikelijke oude benadering van de stijlontwikkeling. Zij zouden de zelfde fouten kunnen herhalen het Westen in de laatste decennia heeft gemaakt. En, als India, China en andere landen die fouten, dan blijven maken ongeacht wat het Westen de klimaatverandering doet aanpakken het“ onmogelijk zal zijn.
De instrumenten die voor het verlichten van de van de klimaatverandering efficiënte
technologieën worden bepleit worden Op energiegebied ontwikkeld voor het minimaliseren van de consumptie van de energie. De lampen CFL worden bevorderd als deel van energie efficiënte nut en materiaal om in de vermindering van de groene emissies van het huisgas bij te dragen. Daar ook doelstellingen voor vervanging van niet vernieuwbare energie throng vernieuwbare energie. De groene partij in Duitsland streeft naar hoogtepunt - schaalvervanging van niet vernieuwbare energie door vernieuwbare energie tegen het jaar 2020. Er zijn verdragen die zijn ondertekend hoewel zij niet godsdienstig worden gevolgd. Meer financiering wordt gestreefd naar voor onderzoek voor het globalizing van de vernieuwbare energie gebaseerde diensten en nut. Het binden van doelstellingen bij de emissievermindering is niet daar zoals van de aspirationalaanbeveling van de top van APEC onlangs in Sydney als deel van de processen voor de V.N.- kaderovereenkomst wordt besloten bij de klimaatverandering dat in Bali in de maand van December 2007 moet worden gehouden duidelijk is. Er zijn actieplannen Verstoken van bindend beleid en doel voor de emissie van groene huisgassen.
Als de opbouw van broeikasgassen en het resulterende verwarmen van de planeet werd toegestaan om ongecontroleerd voort te zetten, zullen wij collectief gevolgen in termen van het verlies van het ecologisch duurzame levensonderhoud, habitat, gewassenmislukkingen, onrechtvaardige distributie van de ecologisch veilige habitat over de wereld hebben. Het is bekend dat de globale economische boom de groene emissies van het huisgas met de de ooit uitbreidende niet vernieuwbare energie gebaseerde stedelijke habitat, consumptie, productie en vervoerpatronen versnelt.
Problemen in de strategieën
zijn Er strategieën die met globale erkenning van de behoefte zijn geïdentificeerda om groene huisemissies te verminderen. Maar toch, worden zij verslagen als doelstellingen worden geplaatst met het tegenspreken van resultaten en visies. Bijvoorbeeld, overweegt de berekening van het BBP niet het effect op milieu en ecologische kosten en zo is daarom geen factoren in de berekening van Bruto binnenlands product. De enorme kosten op milieu's worden genegeerd na de overtuiging dat alle middelen voor het gebruik zijn en hun niet-gebruik een indicator van lage technologische ontwikkeling is. Een ecologisch duurzame habitat wordt niet beschouwd met ecologisch duurzaam levensonderhoud als waardevol. Driemaandelijks de rapportering over de verhoging van het BBP niet factor de verhoging van de groene emissies van het huisgas. het 7de Initiatief van de Generatie in Canada met het Akte van de welzijnsmeting in een initiatief voor factoring de ecologische kosten en de kosten van het werk thuis
www.sustainwellbeing.net van vrouwen. Zij geloven dat de berekening van bruto binnenlands product de kosten op het milieu moet omvatten dat onze acties in het heden
www.sustainwellbeing.net hebben. Mike Nickerson en Joe Jordon hebben jarenlang een campagne gevoerd.
De politieke partijen blijven door visies op korte termijn worden geïnspireerdr en het is niet helemaal hun fout. SIMPOL werkt met de kiezers globaal voor het beïnvloeden van de gelijktijdige goedkeuring van beleid. Er is behoefte om more and more gelijktijdige acties voor vreedzame acties, besluiten, keuzen globaal te verzekeren die in collectieve ecologische veiligheid zullen bijdragen. De politieke partijen moeten voor het steunen van het beleid worden opgeleid dat bescherming van ecologisch duurzaam levensonderhoud en habitat verzekert. De Stichting van de Liga van de arbeid, Vertrouwen Sufi en CEASIG als deel van Nationaal Forum van BosArbeiders en BosMensen ondersteunend de rechten van land in hun traditionele habitat door het schrappen van het effect van de koloniale wetgevingen die hen hun rechten op hoeve en landbouwland beroofden. De groene partijen zijn bezorgd over de ecologisch veilige kwesties maar hun kiezers zijn weinigen. De meeste politieke partijen zijn betrokken bij kwesties die een beroep doend zijn op de elite en de middenklasse in het directe heden.
Een andere belangrijke hindernis ervoer op de manier om globale reacties te krijgen voor het verlichten van de klimaatverandering is voortdurende marketing van patronen van de fossiele brandstof de intensieve consumptie, stedelijke habitatontwerpen, ontwikkelingsparadigma, concurrerende nationalismen voor het zoeken van de tellers van fossiele brandstof intensieve levensstijlen, devaluatie van de ecologisch duurzame patronen van de landbouwconsumptie. Er bestaat de voortdurende politieke steun voor culturele producten en processen die aan nationale en globale ecologische veiligheid vijandig zijn. Terwijl er zijn maatregelen voor ecologische het effectbeoordelingen van het effectmilieu maar dan er er bestaat duidelijk ontbreken van belang voor het richten van de worteloorzaken van ecologische en mens gemaakte rampen. Marginalisation van de geloof gebaseerde de jeugdgroepen door atheïstische intelligentsia blijft probleem dat moet worden aangepakt. Zij moeten aan boord worden gebracht.
Ecologisch wordt het veilige nationale paradigma dat van de strategieontwikkeling
bovengenoemd overweegt, het voorgesteld dat een ecologisch veilig nationaal paradigma van de strategieontwikkeling de volgende eigenschappen bevat:
1. Marketing van ecologisch veilige consumptie, productie, patronen 2 van het vrije tijds
gebruik. Ecologisch het afraden van vijandige consumptie en productiepatronen
3. Bevordering van buurthandel en onderwijs en ecologisch afradend vijandige handel en onderwijs
4. Ecologisch duurzame landbouw
5. Bevordering van ecologisch duurzame vervoerSystemen
6. Geloof gebaseerde maatregelen voor transformatie van patroon 7 van het vrije tijds
gebruik. Bevordering en bescherming van ecologisch duurzame habitat
8. ecologisch veilige vrije rente en systeem 9 van schuld vrij
financiën. Ecologisch is de veilige modellen van
succes naar een
oplossingsVermindering van de emissie van groene huisgassen door het bevorderen van maatregelen en besluitpatronen die de consumptie van diensten matigen en nut die op de consumptie van groen huis worden de gebaseerd dat fossiele brandstoffen uitzendt kritiek dat allen betrokken bij het beschermen van het mensdom van de negatieve effecten van klimaat, het minimaliseren van de weerslag van droogte en het stoppen van de uitbreiding van woestijnen en het verhinderen van het verlies van ecologisch duurzame habitat en levensonderhoud veranderen. Overwegend de noodsituaties, debatteert men dat de goedkeuring van geloof gebaseerde maatregelen om de patronen van het vrije tijdsgebruik om te zetten op prioriteit wordt overwogen. Na diagram toont het effect en de relaties die goedkeuring van gebed en meditatie 5 keer per dag op de consumptiepatronen aan.
De mannen en de vrouwen na de bevelen voor gebed en meditatie 5 keer per dag zullen niet waarschijnlijk niet in consumptie van veel tevreden stellen het gelijk maken van post het werkovereenkomsten die reizen vereisen over lange afstand aangezien dit zich in naleving van het bevel voor gebed /salah /meditation /yoga bij de benoemde uren zou mengen. Men kan gemakkelijk zien dat de goedkeuring van dit bevel transformatie van veel consumptie van fossiele brandstof intensieve vrije tijd zoals het gaan naar staaf en dansende zalen zal verzekeren. Dit kan samen met verscheidene andere persoonlijke en communautaire reacties worden goedgekeurd voor het verminderen van de emissie van groene huizen. Schijnen de geloof gebaseerde reacties efficiënter te zijn en zij moeten worden bevorderd zoals voor dit er geen behoefte is om extra inspanningen te leveren. De vereniging van conservatisme `' schijnt meer één van de reactie te zijn dat sommige mannen en vrouwen voor mededeling van geloof maatregelen kunnen gebaseerd hebben. Maar dan is het belangrijk om het belang van de goedkeuring van geloof gebaseerde maatregel voor ecologische doeltreffendheid, veiligheid, geschiktheid, wenselijkheid en geldigheid te zien. Zijn de geloof gebaseerde reacties gemeenschappelijk en zij moeten enkel voor hun bijdrage in het ecologische welzijn op de persoonlijke, communautaire, sociale, nationale en mondiale niveaus worden bevorderd. Er is een dringende behoefte aan het zelfde.
Persoonlijk geloof gebaseerd reacties
Gebed 5 keer per dag voor het omzetten van het patroon erkent dat van het vrije tijdsgebruik dat de patronen van het vrije tijdsgebruik één van de belangrijkste sociale overeenkomsten zijn die de meeste de fossiele brandstof gebaseerde diensten en nut verbruiken. Het bevel voor gebed is gemeenschappelijk over de godsdienstige teksten hoewel het het meest opvallend gepraktizeerd door mannen en vrouwen na de mededelingen van Muhammad lijkt, die de laatste boodschapper te zijn door Moslims worden verondersteld (mannen en vrouwen die aan de wil van God/Allah voorleggen. /.
Hoe de goedkeuring van gebed omzet bezoeken de consumptiepatronen en ecologisch de vijandige van het gebruikspatronen van de reis intensieve
vrije tijd Mannen en de vrouwen die gebed (salah in Arabisch) uitoefenen geen dansende zalen en staven aangezien zij meer betrokken zijn over op tijd het bidden. Het gebed in de ochtend, middag, na zonsondergang en dan gebed na diner in de de kerken van huizenmoskees/van de van het synagogegebed en meditatie zalen/het werkplaats maakt hen verbindend om zich op het noodzakelijke slechts werk te concentreren. Het gebed en de herinnering voor hen zijn etc. een gemiddelde van ontspanning, spanning het busting, socialisatie, en communion. S/he concentreert zich op de essentiële kwesties in de buurt en zorgen voor hen zoals gebevolen door de boodschappers. Ten tweede, onthouden zij zich van exhibitionist consumptie na het bevel van God Allah voor het overtreden van niet de grenzen/de grenzen die door God/Allah worden geplaatst. For dressing they believe that the best dress is that of piety determined by the extent to which they follow the commands of God/ Allah. They abstain from adultery following the commands against the same as they believe in upholding the best standards of piety. They seek forgiveness from God/Allah for the sinful deeds executed intentionally or unintentionally. Thus adoption of prayer 5 times a day works as a guard for all the behaviours that have been prohibited in the holy books across the religions.
They donate out of the sustenance for poor following the commands for donation/zakat, khairat, fitra and sadaqah/daan.. They do not waste and thus observe the best of the ideals communicated through the slogan of ‘waste not, want not’. They indulge in ecologically safe consumption and believe in moderation in all matters. The middle path communicated through the commands of God/Allah is best ensured through the adoption of compulsory prayers 5 times a day. Youth, Men and men following the commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru for remembrance of Ishwar are likely to have the similar best behaviour patterns that are ecologically safe. Their average ecological footprints are likely to be very low. This needs to be established with communication of more ecological audits/ water audits/green audits/ energy audits/ paper audits/ food intake audits- a series of audits that youth, men and women following the command of God/Allah perform or they are supposed to perform. They ensure more and more pious behaviour, consumption and production patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations call for generation of more pious responses as they are directly linked to reduction in the emission of green house gases .
Inter faith commons
The inter faith commons need to be communicated and disseminated for not only global integration but also for addressing the critical ecological challenge that we as part of humanity face . Global warming is no longer a concern of a particular nations but it is an issue that we all as part of humanity face. Inter faith commons bring to the fore the understanding that we have common monotheistic content and messengers who upheld the best standards of justice, communication, and struggle in their life time and fought men and women after utilizing the best means of persuasion. Shiv Sankalp Taru has a very interesting verse that needs to be brought in light for men and women who have special affinity for the Sanskrit textual tradition. The timings are very much common to the timing followed by the Muslims. It is a command that needs to be followed by all. Muslim youths, men and women already follow that following the communication of God/BRAHMM communicated through the last messenger while believing that commands were communicated through all the messengers earlier in various languages and lands. The commands followed by Muslims are the commands that were communicated through the earlier messengers were sent to all the lands to people who spoke various languages following the related verse in the holy Qur’an. Commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru “Ishwar smarate panch awasare” calls for remembrance of Ishwar who was neither born nor gave on five occasions in a day, every day-all the 365/366 days of the year.
Command for establishing prayer at the appointed hours exists in the Holy Qur’an. According to one count there are command for establishing salah and give zakat more that 54 times in the holy Qur’an. There are commands in Bible and Torah. Buddhist monotheistic tradition calls for fighting the ‘mara’ in the Dhammapada and the atheistic understanding calls for adoption of middle path in all the matters. Practice of meditation leads to transformation of consumption patterns. Gurus in the Sikhism and Jain traditions are examples of austere life filled with prayer and penance. Guru Nanak was a practitioner of prayer and remembrance and he is revered for that and followed by millions of Sikhs around the world. For Sikhs, it is not impossible to follow the best practices of Guru Nanak who established himself as a role model for millions of Sikhs around the world. Following table shows the interfaith commons that can be adopted by all. This is being proposed considering the absence of coherent strategy in the atheistic post-modern discourse and contingencies of the global emergencies that must be addressed.

How an ecologically sustainable / contended reverent economy is built up with happiness for all
Ecological economists are currently debating issues with the Washington consensus economist and fighting the TINA (there is no alternative) syndrome .Noam Chomsky believes in the alternative economic order and so do youths of the world who through their calls are wanting to see the change and taking up non-violent advocacy and communication for the needful change . He also believes in the alternative political and cultural order .Binary economists are calling for abolition of interest charged on the loans as they believe creation of money from thin air in the books of the bankers is responsible for lots of ecologically hostile and socially inequitable practices in consumption, production and distribution and leisure use patterns
www.binaryeconomics.org .
Elimination of usury, fiat money propelling the ecologically hostile growth of urban habitats is being pointed out to be a critical factor in building a socially inclusive and ecologically safe economy. Similarly, debt free credit /interest free loans are being promoted for zero debt distressed suicides and bankruptcies.
Another major feature of contented and ecological sustainable economy is its capacity and intent for the protection of ecologically sustainable habitats with renewable resource based life support systems. It is simply impossible to envisage sustainability of non-renewable based transport systems in perpetuity. Search for nuclear energy and intense research activity in the renewable resource based energy is a proof for this. It needs to be noted that while nuclear energy in the short run appears to be carbon neutral, but in the long run, this is also not sustainable as there are limited resources for running the reactors. It is clear that resources such as uranium and thorium are not for all the time in the future. Therefore, the only solution is to decelerate and regulate the consumption of non-renewable resource based services and utilities through instituting an ecologically sustainable economy with the following features:
1.Debt free money and interest free loans with public control on the creation of money
2.Rights to renewable resource based habitats
3.Ecologically sustainable leisure use patterns
4.Distributive justice for renewable resource based livelihoods
5.Freedom from worried of energy crisis
6.Protection of Renewable resource based livelihoods
Freedom from worries of energy crisis affecting energy intensive transportation systems and habitats is an essential constituent of an ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy .At present most of the planners are concerned with the increasing energy requirements and for this some countries are ready to sacrifice their ideals and foundations of foreign policy. Left parties in India along with other parties have been vociferously opposing the loss of independence in the foreign policy of India. It is important to ensure sustainability for the renewable resource based life support systems and for this it is important to halt the loss of ecologically sustainable habitats and agricultural production methodologies. It is not possible to ensure sustainability for habitat designs that are based on unsustainable energy sources. Therefore, it is not possible to ensure sustainability for skyscraper laden urban habitats. Urban areas with energy intensive shopping malls need to be brought within ecologically sustainable limits. For this to happen, it is important to support adoption of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance framework.
Youths as drivers of change processes and communication for transition to ecologically safe life support systems locally and globally
Creating debt free money and ensuring interest free loans in not quite easy as that requires change of hearts and minds of men and women governing the various institutions who find the proposals difficult. Success of the proposals for ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy and polity requires multiplication of men and women who uphold the criterion of piety. It is important that the pious men and women across the world prohibiting peacefully what is wrong and prescribing what is right take charge of the governance and ensure that debt free money is created, faith based measures are adopted for mitigating the impacts of climate change. It is important to understand the need to prepare for life after death as that would impel men and women to adopt faith based measures more and more. Now, the signs of ecological distress are too compelling to avoid collective and personal actions for both mitigating and halting the impacts of climate change. Signs of ecological distress affecting the lives of billions call for taking corrective action locally and globally. Youths and corporations who are market for non-renewable energy intensive services and utilities need to be in charge. Atheistic postmodernist laissez faire regimen of cultural, political and moral governance needs to be critically reviewed as they damage the survival interests of the billions in here and now and that of future generations.
Hurdles in the way/ constraints
There are hurdles in the way for such a massive change taking place simultaneously and globally and most pernicious among the faith based notions are that of neo-liberal atheistic ideology where market and profit devoid of the concerns of eternal interests of mankind are permitted to have full freedom. It is dominance of atheistic neo-liberal ideology that prevents men and women from adopting the faith based pious measures for addressing the global and local challenges. Media channels such as MTV with adoring participation of youths indoctrinated in the atheistic visions of good life are busy in creating models of copy cat consumption and leisure use patterns globally with local vernacular channels following in line. Starting with English music content in 90’s now MTV has more of Hindi songs and dance forms with direct message for youths for copying the ecologically leisure use pattern including partying ,dancing and drinking of intoxicating drinks.
The second hurdle is the lack on coherent national and international policy with respect to addressing the climate change. While Kyoto protocol emission target call for reduction in the emission of green house gases, national development strategies continue to be inspired by the perception of competitive disadvantage. It is dangerous to have such incoherence for long time as the assessments of climate scientists are too compelling. Speaking on the occasion of a meeting to the launch the full report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on the impacts of global warming, Professor Martin Parry, a climate scientist with MET office in UK and co-chairman of the working group for the report said, “We are all used to talking about the impact of these changes coming in the lifetime of our children and grand children. Now we know that it is us.” He added that politicians had wasted a decade in focussing on ways to cut emissions, and had woken up recently to the need to adapt. He felt that “mitigation has got all the attention, but we cannot mitigate out of this problem. We have now a choice between a damaged world and a severely damaged world”. (The Hindu 20 September 2007)
The hurdle can be seen through assessing the levels of convergence for the various agencies and their functioning. While there are calls for higher rates of growth, they are not assessed in the light of the demands of ecological sustainability. Even the promotion of indexes such as “sustainability index” is not getting the required attention and it has been left to the discretion of the nations. There are evidences of lack of interagency cooperation and United National Development Programme (UNDP) appears to be working against the mandate of United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Environment assessments /ministries are slighted for benefiting ecologically hostile proposals/ policies. More often than not considerations of ecological sustainability are ignored for sanctioning ecologically hostile projects. This is evident from the sanction of Special Economic Zones despite the violent and non-violent resistance of farmers in India as they did not want to give up on their only source of ecologically sustainable livelihoods through farming. Committee for Campaign on National Himalayan Policy for the ecologically fragile Himalayan region in India has been calling for redefinition of development policy.
Therefore there is a need to institute a governance framework that is both ecologically safe and socially inclusive with reference to poor, old, children and women, ethnic and religious groups residing both in rural and urban habitats.
Labour League Foundation along with several youth led organisations considers the need for establishing ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance with the following features:
1.A governance that is cognizant of the needs of poor, rights of farmers and villages to ecologically sustainable livelihoods and habitats
2.Governance that eliminates fictitious inflationary money and usurious loans created from thin air and responsible for expansion of ecologically hostile habitats
3. Governance that promotes pious and ecologically safe consumption and production pattern
4.A government that plans for ecologically safe disaster free future for all
5.Governance that ensure ecologically safe distribution of natural resources
6.Governance that works for the interests of all
7.Governance that ensures policy making for the rights of children, future generations and poor
.
Diagram-4
Represents the key features of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance
Youth strategies
1.Multiplication of carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) across the cities and villages
These discussions initiated by youth and community elders in the neighbourhood where they gather for collective prayer, discussions and other social engagements. The recommendations of the discussions and simultaneous action compiled at various levels will be presented in the form of a memorandum to the local and world leader gathered in various summits and events accelerating the generation of ecologically safe survival and development policies and multiplication of ecologically safe survival policies. Local impacts will be generated through transformation of the leisure use pattern, consumption pattern, production systems ensuring minimisation of emission of green house gases and galvanising mass communication strategies for reduction in the personal contribution to the green house gases. The discussions on the urgency of reducing green house gases lead to the transformation of personal level consumption patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance (CEASIG), a Delhi based organisation believes that personal responses are critical for transformation of the consumption patterns. Unsustainable consumption patterns can be halted with the personal responses. Personal responses are always part of the global responses. Carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) will multiply ecologically safe responses across the urban and rural areas.
2.Multiplication of ecologically safe responses through promotion of green journalism
Production of analytical and advisory outputs through journalists is critical and they are one of the major stakeholders in shaping the opinions, consumption patterns. Journalists writing on lifestyle can substantially influence the consumption pattern of people in the urban areas. They can help in shaping the tastes and defining the choices. Journalists are important is generating democratic consensus for halting unsustainable consumption patterns. In our times, journalists play a very critical and sometimes they are responsible for defining the social, cultural and political trends. Youth organisations call for securing the future of villages, children and future generations with ecologically sustainable habitats, consumption patterns while ensuring inter-species justice.
3.Catalysing green politics
Labour league Foundation and Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations globally will be supporting the process for open and transparent politics for instilling the importance of ecologically safe green ideals. Youth organisations will be organising meetings with the representatives of the various media organisations and political parties and seek inclusion of ecological considerations in editorial policies and election manifestoes. Media organisations need to be visionary organisations and help in the preparation for an emerging future bereft of petro-modern consumption, transport, habitat and production systems.
4.Transformation of leisure use patterns
Youth organisations and youth wish to realise the millennium development goals for eliminating the unsustainable consumption patterns and wish to do so through suggesting transformation of the leisure use pattern. Suggestions for adoption of faith based measures that are common across the religious texts need to be taken seriously as part of global cultural commons. As indicated through the diagrammatic representation of the impact of adoption of faith based measures, youths call for generating interfaith consensus for acting simultaneously for transforming the leisure use patterns.
5.Calculation of ecological footprints, eliminating ecological rucksacks, returning to the ecologically sustainable habitats of the past for securing the ecological safe future of children and future generations
Youth call for dissemination of the practice of measuring ecological footprints for getting the desired actions for reducing the number of decisions involving emission of green house gases. Similarly, awareness on the loss of rocks due to excessive mining is critical for eliminating the amount of ecological losses. It is critical to value the conventional housing designs that use mud, grass, bamboo and wood. The definition of poverty considering the possession of adobe dwellings as a sign of poverty needs to be revised.
6.Ecological Audit of the consumption processes and patterns
The ecological audit is a concept proposed by Dr.Muhammad Mukhtar Alam, the chairman of Labour League Foundation
http://muhammad_mukhtar_alam.tigblog.org .This needs to be used along with the calculation of ecological footprints, environment audit/ green audit for assessing the impact of various decision and consumption patterns. Globalisation of the ecological audit at all levels is needed for supporting ecologically sustainable consumption patterns. This is important for realising the millennium development goals for environment sustainability by the year 2015. It is proposed that reports on sustainability index are incorporated in the formulation of the ecologically safe development policy.
7.Ecological Audit of the production systems / patterns
Production processes need to be assessed for ecological sustainability. There are ecologically sustainable and unsustainable production processes. The workshops with corporations interested in realising the millennium development goals will be conducted for getting in the changes in production processes. Youths believe based on the predictions on the oil reserves that Petro-modern production systems do not have a long future. Reducing energy demand for ecologically unsustainable production, consumption patterns is critical for halting the expansion of deserts and regularisation of rainfalls.
8.Ecological Audit of the transport systems / patterns
Renewable resource based transport systems are sustainable and non-renewable resource based transport systems are not sustainable. Ecological Audit of the transport systems needs to be encouraged for all organisations and ministries dealing with transport. Minimising / Eliminating travel is critical for ecologically sustainable habitats. We need to prepare for the end of petro-modern age.
9.Ecological Audit of the leisure use patterns-
There are leisure use patterns that do not use green house gas producing fossil fuels and there are leisure use patterns that are based on renewable resources and that does not involve consumption of fossil fuels. Workshop with the neighbourhood discussion leaders and resident welfare associations needs to be conducted for necessary transformation of leisure use patterns. Children, youths and elders need to be encouraged to adopt faith based measures for relaxation and stress busting. There are several studies that have demonstrated the impact of prayer and meditation on stress levels. Ecological audit of the leisure engagements need to be supported for getting the desired response for reduction in the emission of green house gases through transformation of leisure use patterns.
10.Interfaith dialogue for addressing the climate change, farmer’s suicides, and social security for workers in unorganized sector and transforming finance sector
Appreciation of the common commands for prayer, donation, compassion, charity and prohibition of usury, adultery, and homosexuality is needed with wider dissemination of the same. Adoption of these commands addresses the challenge of climate change, ecologically hostile usurious system, AIDS and so on. Inter-faith dialogue will ensure generation of responses across the faith groups. Delhi has a vibrant culture of interfaith dialogue. Sant Rajinder Singh of Sawan Kripal Ashram has been conducting the same for many years. Youth organisation need to work independently or in collaboration with faith based organisations for generating more forums of interfaith dialogue.
11.National/ regional/ city/ village based conventions on Inter Faith common responses for addressing the climate change-
Governments need to be encouraged for holding national conventions for generating consensus for adoption of faith based measures for addressing the climate change. There are cultural responses for fighting the atheistic neo-liberal cultural trends emanating from Europe and copied by youth in the name of globalisation and modernity. National Convention will address the issue of climate change through adopting the interfaith commons while preserving religious diversity and ecologically sustainable dietary, sartorial, linguistic diversities.
12.Carbon neutral Youth colloquiums / meetings / Majlis-e-Naujawan/ Yuva Harit Bharat Sabha/../../
Youths propose globalisation of local efforts for contributing in the mitigation of the impacts of climate change. Governments recognise the critical role of youths as more and more organisations led by youths are involved in consultation. It is suggested that Green youth forums with vernacular names need to be formed and discussions be held with active government support for getting the desired response pattern for halting the expansion of unsustainable consumption pattern and leisure use pattern through adoption of faith based measures.
Conclusion:
Imagining the responses of the weaker species in the face of man made onslaughts on the non-renewable resources , many youths across the world recognise the threats represented through the expression of anguish of the billions of poor who are angry, dispossessed and seeking an end to the process of non-renewable resource based usurious finance fuelled expansion of consumption and production pattern that is causing serious loss of livelihood for millions across the Earth and call upon all the governments, civil society organisations, corporations engaged in ecologically hostile production processes to boycott the ecologically hostile usurious finance and prevent further loss of ecologically sustainable habitats that are an immediate outcome of the expansion of ecologically hostile non-renewable resource based habitats. Nations need to compete in establishing the models of ecologically safe economy, polity and culture. Youth of the world are ready to become a leader along with Muslims, Greens and men and women of the world who wish to halt the political expansion of the atheistic neo-liberal ideology that is responsible for exacerbating the ecological distress demonstrated through the increased incidence of drought and expansion of deserts causing suffering for millions. Adaptation is the weakest response and youths call for halting the negative impacts of climate change. Nothing is impossible.

حالة جفاف سبب الاهتمام في كلّ جزء من العالم لقرون. هناك مراجع ل ال نفس في النصوص مقدّسة مثل [توره] مقدّسة, الكتاب مقدّس [قور] مقدّسة'. قد سجّل [يوسوف]/[جوسف], الإبنة شابّة [يقووب/جكب], الرسول من الله/إلهة أن يتلقّى [أدفيز] الملك مصر ل يعدّ لالحالة جفاف سنون [أن ث بسس وف] حلم أنّ الملك رأى وذكر إلى سجينة سابقة يعيش مع [جوسف] (سلام على ه). ملك تصرّف على التفسير من حلمه يزوّد ب [جوسف] (سلام على ه) ويعدّ ل 7 سنون الحالة جفاف. بالمثل, قد كان [دسرتيفيكأيشن] عملية أنّ يتلقّى يكون سجّلت كواحدة من العملية أنّ قد كان فوق في أجزاء مختلفة عالم. حالة جفاف علمت بالغياب من مطر أو مطر وافية أنّ يكون مسؤولة لخسارة من بروز أو [كروب يلد] وافية يسبّب اهتمام جدّيّة لطعام. [دسرتيفيكأيشن] اقترنت مع خسارة من مواطن زراعيّة. الخسارة ال [أغريكلتثرل لند], غابة تغطية نتيجة العولمة من [إيندوستريل برودوكأيشن] عمليات يؤسّس على موردات [نون-رنوبل] يؤسّس موردات. مناخ تغير نتيجة من العولمة من موردة [نون-رنوبل] يؤسّس [أوربن هبيتت]. حالة جفاف, بين أخرى عاملات, مسؤولة لتربة تدهور. أسّست هو يتلقّى يكون أيضا أنّ [دسرتيفيكأيشن] يزيد التأثير من خضراء منزل [غس ميسّيون]. هناك لذلك علاقة من سبب وتأثير بين مناخيّة تغير و [دسرتيفيكأيشن].
البؤرة من الشباب موقعة ورقة على حالة جفاف و [دسرتيفيكأيشن] لذلك على التالي:
1. جعلت تقييم الإستجابات إلى مناخ تغير يكون,

غيّرت في المناخ مع إرتفاع في درجة حرارة الأرض, تغير في سقوط مطر أساليب سبّبت واجبة إلى إذاعة من خضراء منزل غازات أنّ يرفع الدرجة حرارة الأرض بما أنّ المبلغة من خضراء منزل غازات يولد يكون كثير أكثر من القدرة من التغطية خضراء ل يمتصّ. [فلت] تأثير صدمة من المناخ تغير يكون في كلّ مكان إلى ما بعد ال [نأيشنل بووندري]. هناك عدّة يسجّل بيّنات أنّ قد سبّب أمم أن يأخذ على التحدي من شاملة يسخّن [.ون] لون بين الحكومات على مناخ تغير قد كان اجتماع ويتدارس على الإصدار. هناك عدّة وطنيّة إستجابات وإتفاقات دوليّة. مؤخّرا الصين والولايات المتّحدة الأمريكيّة قد عبّر عن إتفاق أن يعمل على مناخ تغير. يتكلّم على مناسبة من [أبك] قمة في سيدني, أستراليا [مر.]. أبقى [هو] [جينتو] أنّ "الالأمم المتّحدة [فرموورك كنفنأيشن] سوفت بقيت القناة رئيسيّة للجهود دوليّة" أن يخاطب مناخ تغير".
الرابعة تقييم قد أعطى تقرير من اللون بين الحكومات على مناخ تغير ([إيبكّ]), أيّ أكّد النتيجات بعيد المدى أنّ استمرّ شاملة يسخّن تلقّى عبر العالم, [فرش يمبتثس] إلى يجد حل إلى المشكلة. صنع ال [سومّيت ميتينغ] من ال [غرووب وف يغت] بلاد ([غ8]) يمسك في ألمانيا في الشهر يونيو - حزيران 2007 يوافق أن يطلق مبادرات جديدة لعمل جماعيّة ب على حدّ سواء أمم غنيّة و [دفلوب كونتري] سريع النموّ أن يقاتل مناخ تغير. في ه رابعة تقييم تقرير, ال [إيبكّ], ال [إينترنأيشنل بودي] أنّ يتلقّى المهمة من يزن بيّنة علميّة على مناخ تغير, يدلّ إلى بيّنة محدّدة أنّ [غسس] تركيز شاملة جوّيّة من دفيئة أساسيّة مثل [كربون ديوإكسيد] تلقّى "زاد بشكل ملحوظ نتيجة أنشطة إنسانيّة منذ 1750". صاد هذا غازات كان الأرض حرارة أنّ خلاف ذلك كان قد أشعّ خارجا داخل فراغ. إن التزايد من دفيئة غازات والناتجة يسخّن من الكوكب كان سمحت أن يستمرّ [أونشكد], سيضطرّ الإنسانية بالإجماع واجهت عدّة نتيجات. حالة جفاف و [دسرتيفيكأيشن] بين التأثير صدمة من مناخ تغير. الموقعة [فوكسنغ] ورقة على التحديات ويقدّم حلول ل يتوقّف التأثير صدمة من مناخ تغير من خلال تبن الإجراءات بما في ذلك الإيمان يؤسّس إستجابات شخصيّة لتحويل من عدائيّة إستهلاك على صعيد البيئة, إنتاج ووقت فراغ إستعمال أساليب.
تقدم [س فر]
نظّمت حصص من حلقة دراسيّة ومؤتمرات يتلقّى يكون ل يخاطب التحدي شاملة. هناك كيوتو بروتوكول إذاعة أهداف ل أيّ إستراتيجيات وطنيّة يتلقّى يكون [دفيز]. كيوتو أجزت بروتوكول رسميّا يعرف كمنظّمة الأمم المتّحدة [فرموورك كنفنأيشن] على مناخ تغير يتلقّى لم يكن ب بعض من الأمم مهمّة. الولايات المتّحدة الأمريكيّة ولا يجيز أستراليا البروتوكول بما أنّ هم يتلقّون إدراكات ال [كمبتيتيف ديسدفنتج]. هناك إتفاقات ل يقلّد الإذاعات بالسنة 2020 و2050. هناك يتواجد تعبئة مهتزّة من مجتمعة مدنيّة وتعبئة من شباب مجموعة. يعمل عدّة مجموعة للسياسة تأييد ل يطبّق الأهداف ملزمة للإذاعة من خضراء منزل غازات. يتواجد هناك أيضا حركيّة سياسة تأييد ل [ر&د] في [رنوبل نرج] [س ثت] هناك يكون كثير من [رنوبل رسورس] يؤسّس طاقة ل يستبدل الطاقة [نون-رنوبل]. يدعو أحزاب خضراء يتواجد في أكثر من 88 بلاد لإستبدال لدفيئة يلد [فوسّيل فول] يؤسّس مصدر طاقة مع [رنوبل نرج].
منظّمة الأمم المتّحدة منحت لون بين الحكومات على مناخ تغير يتلقّى يكون [نوبل بريز] مع روبرت [أل غر] ل يعمل على المناخ تغير. النرويجية نوبل ذكر لجنة المستلمات "لجهودهم أن يحتدّ ونشرت معرفة عظيمة حول [من مد] مناخ تغير وأن يكذب أسس للإجراءات أنّ يكون لازمة أن يحايد هذا تغير". سيد. [أل غر] استجاب إلى الدعوة قضائيّة يقول "يواجه نحن طارئ كوكبيّة حقّا: المناخ ليس تغير إصدار سياسيّة, هو أخلاقية وتحدي روحانيّة إلى كلّ إنسانية". [مر.ر.ك.]. [بشوري] يشارك الجائزة مع روبرت [أل غر] بما أنّ رئيس مجلس إدارة من لون بين الحكومات على مناخ تغير استجاب أنّ نوبل سلام أضاف جائزة إحساس الإلحاح إلى المعركة ضدّ شاملة يسخّن. [إيبكّ], يثبت فوق في 1988, أرهق مع يعطي واضع سياسة خلاصة من المعرفة متأخّرة حول مناخ تغير. [غفين] إدواردز يشترك رأس المناخ وطاقة, [غرينبس] دوليّة [تلك بووت] ماذا الحكومات عبر العالم يستطيع أتمّت أن يخفّف المشكلة أشار الحاجة أن يعيد عبارات البروتوكول أنّ يعترف ال يميّز مسؤولية للأمم مختلفة يستجيب إلى المناخ تغير. هو يشير الحاجة ل ال [دفلوب كونتري] أن يتمّ [ألّ ث] [نيدفول] ولا كرّست الأغلاط من ال يطوّر بلاد - "ركّز على [نونغفرنمنتل ورغنيسأيشن] يتلقّى حقّا على ال يصنع أمم أنّ يضطرّ أتمّت أسد سهم من يعالج المناخ [شنج-ثت] واضحة. غير أنّ ماذا يكون أيضا واضحة أنّ [دفلوب كونتري] مثل هند والصين باستمرار يستمرّ يطوّر مع العمل كمعتادة قديمة أسلوب تطوير مقاربة. هم استطاع كنت كرّرت ال نفسه أغلاط الالغرب قد جعل في العقود [لت فو]. كنت و, إن هند, الصين وأخرى بلد يستمرّ أن يجعل أنّ أغلاط, بعد ذلك [رغردلسّ وف] ماذا الالغرب يكون يتمّ أن يعالج المناخ تغير هو مستحيلة".
طوّرت الأجهزة يدافع ل يخفّف المناخ تغير
تكنولوجيا [إنرج فّيسنت] يكون ل يقلّل الإستهلاك من الطاقة. [كفل] روّجت مصابيح يكون كجزء منافع [إنرج فّيسنت] وتجهيزات ل يسهم في التخفيض من خضراء منزل [غس ميسّيون]. هناك أيضا أهداف لإستبدال من [نون-رنوبل] طاقة حشد [رنوبل نرج]. حزب خضراء في ألمانيا [سك] إستبدال [فولّ-سكل] من طاقة [نون-رنوبل] ب [رنوبل نرج] بالسنة 2020. هناك معاهدات أنّ قد كان يقع مع ذلك هم يكون لا بطريقة متديّنة تبعت. بحثت كثير يموّل يكون لبحث ل عولم [رنوبل نرج] يؤسّس خدمات ومنافع. ليس أهداف ملزمة على إذاعة تخفيض هناك بما أنّ جلّيّة من ال [أسبيرأيشنل] توصية من ال [أبك] قمة يستنتج مؤخّرا في سيدني كجزء العمليات لالمنظّمة الأمم المتّحدة [فرموورك كنفنأيشن] على مناخ تغير أن يكون أمسكت في [بلي] في الشهر ديسمبر - كانون الأوّل 2007. هناك [بلن وف كأيشن] خلو من ملزمة سياسات وهدف للإذاعة من خضراء منزل غازات.
إن التزايد من دفيئة غازات والناتجة يسخّن من الكوكب كان سمحت أن يستمرّ [أونشكد], سيتلقّى نحن بالإجماع نتيجات بخصوص الخسارة من ال [ليفليهوودس] قابل للمحافظة على صعيد البيئة, مواطن, [كروب فيلور], توزيع غير منصف من المواطن آمنة على صعيد البيئة عبر العالم. هو معروفة أنّ يسرع إزدهار شاملة اقتصاديّة خضراء منزل [غس ميسّيون] مع ال في أيّ وقت يمدّد [نون-رنوبل] طاقة يؤسّس [أوربن هبيتت], إستهلاك, إنتاج ونقل أساليب.
مشاكل في الإستراتيجيات
هناك إستراتيجيات أنّ يتلقّى يكون عيّنت مع تمييز شاملة من الحاجة أن يقلّد خضراء منزل إذاعات. [إفن س], يحصل هم يهزم بما أنّ أهداف يكون ثبتت مع يناقض نتيجات ورؤيات. مثلا, [غدب] لا يعتبر حساب التأثير صدمة على بيئة وتكاليف بيتيّة ولذلك ليس لذلك عاملات في الحساب ال [دومستيك برودوكت]. تجاهلت تكاليف ضخمة على بيئات بعد القناعة أنّ [ألّ ث] موردات للإستعمال و [نون-وتيليسأيشن] هم مؤشر من [تشنولوجكل دفلوبمنت] منخفضة. لا يعتبر موطن قابل للمحافظة على صعيد البيئة قيّمة مع [ليفليهوودس] قابل للمحافظة على صعيد البيئة. فصليّة يتمّ يفيد على الزيادة في ال [غدب] لا عاملة الزيادة في خضراء منزل [غس ميسّيون]. [7ث] جيل يعمل مبادرة في كندا مع رفاه قياس عمل في مبادرة ل يحلّ التكاليف بيئيّة وتكلفة النساء [أت هوم] www.sustainwellbeing.net. هم يصدقون أنّ حساب ال [دومستيك برودوكت] ينبغي تضمّنت التكلفة على البيئة أنّ أعمالنا في الهدية يتلقّى www.sustainwellbeing.net. يشترك مايك [نيكرسن] و [جو] [جوردون] يتلقّى يكون لسنون.
يستمرّ أحزاب سياسيّة أن يكون ألهمت برؤيات قصير المدى وهو ليس الى حدّ بعيد خطأهم. [سمبول] يعمل مع المقترعات على نحو شامل ل يأثر التبن متزامنة سياسات. هناك حاجة أن يضمن أعمال متزامنة [مور ند مور] على نحو شامل لأعمال سلميّة, قرارات, إختبار أنّ سيسهم في أمان جماعيّة بيئيّة. يحتاج أحزاب سياسيّة أن يكون ربّيت ل يساند السياسات أنّ يضمن حماية من [ليفليهوودس] قابل للمحافظة على صعيد البيئة ومواطن. عمّاليّة جامعة يعمّر أساس, [سوفي] ثقة و [سسغ] كجزء ساحة وطنيّة من غابة عاملات وغابة يساند الحقوق الأرض في مواطنهم تقليديّة من خلال يمحو التأثير صدمة من تشريعات مستعمرة أنّ حرمهم حقوقهم إلى منزل وزراعة أراضي. تعلّقت أحزاب خضراء حول الإصدارات آمنة على صعيد البيئة غير أنّ مقترعاتهم قليل. تعلّقت أكثر من الأحزاب سياسيّة مع إصدارات أنّ يكون أكثر مغري إلى النخبة وال [ميدّل كلسّ] في الهدية فوقيّة.
آخر حاجز كبريات يختبر في الطريق من يحصل إستجابات شاملة ل يخفّف المناخ تغير يستمرّ تسويق من [فوسّيل فول] شديدة إستهلاك أساليب, [أوربن هبيتت] تصاميم, تطوير نموذج, قوميات تنافسيّة ل يبحث العلامات من [فوسّيل فول] أسلوب حياة شديدة, تخفيض قيمة من القابل للمحافظة زراعة إستهلاك أساليب على صعيد البيئة. هناك يتواجد يستمرّ دعم سياسيّة لمنتوجات ثقافيّة وعمليات أنّ يكون معادة إلى وطنيّة وأمان شاملة بيئيّة. بينما هناك يكون إجراءات لبيتيّة [إيمبكت/] بيئة تأثير صدمة تقييمات غير أنّ بعد ذلك يتواجد هناك بشكل ملحوظ غياب الاهتمامات ل يخاطب الجذر أسباب من بيتيّة وكوارث [من مد]. يستمرّ [مرجنليسأيشن] من الإيمان يؤسّس شباب مجموعة بالأهل فكر إلحاديّة أن يكون مشكلة أنّ يحتاج أن يكون خاطبت. هم يحتاجون أن يكون أحضرت [أن بوأرد].
آمنة وطنيّة [سترتج/] تطوير نموذج
على صعيد البيئة يعتبر الآنفة, اقترحت هو أنّ آمنة وطنيّة [سترتج/] تطوير نموذج على صعيد البيئة يحتوي السمات تالي:
1. شكّل
تسويق من إستهلاك آمنة على صعيد البيئة, إنتاج, وقت فراغ إستعمال 2. يثبّط عدائيّة إستهلاك على صعيد البيئة وإنتاج أساليب

تخفيض في الإذاعة من خضراء منزل غازات من خلال يروّج إجراءات وقرار أساليب أنّ يليّن الإستهلاك من خدمات ومنافع يؤسّس على الإستهلاك من منزل خضراء يصدر [فوسّيل فولس] حرجة أنّ كلّ يتعلّق مع يحمي الإنسانية من التأثير صدمة سلبيّة من مناخ تغير, يقلّد الحدوث الحالة جفاف ويتوقّف التوسع الصحاري ويمنع الخسارة من مواطن قابل للمحافظة على صعيد البيئة و [ليفليهوودس]. [كنسدرينغ] ال [إمرجنسس], جادلت هو أنّ تبن الإيمان أسّس إجراءات ل يغيّر وقت فراغ إستعمال أساليب اعتبرت على أولوية. يعرض يتبع رسم بيانيّ التأثير صدمة وعلاقات أنّ تبن من صلاة وتأمل 5 يوقّت يوم على الإستهلاك أساليب.
يوقّت رجال ونساء يتبع الأوامر لصلاة وتأمل 5 يوم ليس مرجّحة أن يسمح في إستهلاك الحصص من مساء موقعة عمل إلتزامات أنّ يتطلّب أسفار خارجيّة بما أنّ هذا تدخّل في عمليّة مراعاة من الأمر لصلاة /salah /meditation /yoga في ال يعيّن ساعات. هو يستطيع كنت بسهولة رأيت أنّ سيضمن تبن من هذا أمر تحويل الحصص الإستهلاك من [فوسّيل فول] وقت فراغ شديدة مثل يذهب إلى قضيب ويرقص قاعات. هذا يستطيع كنت تبنّيت مع عدّة أخرى شخصيّة وجماعة إستجابات ل يقلّل الإذاعة من منازل خضراء. إيمان يظهر يؤسّس إستجابات أن يكون أكثر فعّالة وهم يحتاجون أن يكون روّجت بما أنّ ل هذا هناك ما من حاجة أن يجعل جهود إضافيّة. يظهر جمعية من `محافظة' أن يكون أكثر واحدة من الإستجابة أنّ بعض رجال ونساء يمكن يتلقّى لاتّصال من إيمان يؤسّس إجراءات. غير أنّ بعد ذلك هو مهمّة أن يرى الأهمية من التبن من إيمان يؤسّس إجراء لبيئيّة فاعليّة, أمان, صلاحية, مرغوبيّة وشرعية. إيمان يؤسّس إستجابات عاديّة ويحتاج هم فقط أن يكون روّجت لمساهمتهم في الرفاه بيئيّة في الشخصيّة, جماعة, اجتماعيّة, وطنيّة ومستويات شاملة. هناك حاجة ملحّة ل ال نفس.
أسّس إيمان شخصيّة إستجابات
صلاة 5 أوقات [ا] يوم ل يغيّر وقت فراغ إستعمال أسلوب يميّز أنّ وقت فراغ إستعمال أساليب واحدة من الإلتزامات أساسيّة اجتماعيّة أنّ يستهلك أكثر من ال [فوسّيل فول] يؤسّس خدمات ومنافع. أمر لصلاة عاديّة عبر النصوص دينيّة رغم أنّ هو يظهر أكثر [بروميننتلي] يمارس برجال ونساء يتبع الاتّصالات [موهمّد], يصدق أن يكون الرسول متأخّرة ب [موسليم] (رجال ونساء يقدّم إلى [ث ويلّ] من إلهة/[ألّه/]. /.
كيف تبن الصلاة يغيّر الإستهلاك لا يزور أساليب وسفر عدائيّة شديدة وقت فراغ إستعمال أساليب
رجال على صعيد البيئة ونساء يمارس صلاة (صلاح في العربية) يرقص قاعات وقضبان بما أنّ هم يكون أكثر تعلّقت حول يصلح في وقت. يجعلهم صلاة في الصباح, العصر, بعد غروب وبعد ذلك صلاة بعد عشاء في ال [هومس/] [موسقوس/] كنائس/[سنغغ/] صلاة وتأمل قاعات/[وورك بلس] حددت إلى بؤرة على العمل ضروريّة فقط. صلاة وذكرى ل هم وسيلة من استرخاء, إجهاد يوقف, مشركة, ومشاركة وهكذا فوق. [س/ه] ركزان على الأوامر أساسيّة في الجوار وعنايات ل هم بما أنّ يؤمر من خلال الرسل. ثانيّا, يمتنع هم من إستهلاك افتضاحيّة يتبع الأمر ال [غد/] الله ل لا يخلّ القفز/حدود مجموعة ب [غد]/الله. For dressing they believe that the best dress is that of piety determined by the extent to which they follow the commands of God/ Allah. They abstain from adultery following the commands against the same as they believe in upholding the best standards of piety. They seek forgiveness from God/Allah for the sinful deeds executed intentionally or unintentionally. Thus adoption of prayer 5 times a day works as a guard for all the behaviours that have been prohibited in the holy books across the religions.
They donate out of the sustenance for poor following the commands for donation/zakat, khairat, fitra and sadaqah/daan.. They do not waste and thus observe the best of the ideals communicated through the slogan of ‘waste not, want not’. They indulge in ecologically safe consumption and believe in moderation in all matters. The middle path communicated through the commands of God/Allah is best ensured through the adoption of compulsory prayers 5 times a day. Youth, Men and men following the commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru for remembrance of Ishwar are likely to have the similar best behaviour patterns that are ecologically safe. Their average ecological footprints are likely to be very low. This needs to be established with communication of more ecological audits/ water audits/green audits/ energy audits/ paper audits/ food intake audits- a series of audits that youth, men and women following the command of God/Allah perform or they are supposed to perform. They ensure more and more pious behaviour, consumption and production patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations call for generation of more pious responses as they are directly linked to reduction in the emission of green house gases .
Inter faith commons
The inter faith commons need to be communicated and disseminated for not only global integration but also for addressing the critical ecological challenge that we as part of humanity face . Global warming is no longer a concern of a particular nations but it is an issue that we all as part of humanity face. Inter faith commons bring to the fore the understanding that we have common monotheistic content and messengers who upheld the best standards of justice, communication, and struggle in their life time and fought men and women after utilizing the best means of persuasion. Shiv Sankalp Taru has a very interesting verse that needs to be brought in light for men and women who have special affinity for the Sanskrit textual tradition. The timings are very much common to the timing followed by the Muslims. It is a command that needs to be followed by all. Muslim youths, men and women already follow that following the communication of God/BRAHMM communicated through the last messenger while believing that commands were communicated through all the messengers earlier in various languages and lands. The commands followed by Muslims are the commands that were communicated through the earlier messengers were sent to all the lands to people who spoke various languages following the related verse in the holy Qur’an. Commands in Shiv Sankalp Taru “Ishwar smarate panch awasare” calls for remembrance of Ishwar who was neither born nor gave on five occasions in a day, every day-all the 365/366 days of the year.
Command for establishing prayer at the appointed hours exists in the Holy Qur’an. According to one count there are command for establishing salah and give zakat more that 54 times in the holy Qur’an. There are commands in Bible and Torah. Buddhist monotheistic tradition calls for fighting the ‘mara’ in the Dhammapada and the atheistic understanding calls for adoption of middle path in all the matters. Practice of meditation leads to transformation of consumption patterns. Gurus in the Sikhism and Jain traditions are examples of austere life filled with prayer and penance. Guru Nanak was a practitioner of prayer and remembrance and he is revered for that and followed by millions of Sikhs around the world. For Sikhs, it is not impossible to follow the best practices of Guru Nanak who established himself as a role model for millions of Sikhs around the world. Following table shows the interfaith commons that can be adopted by all. This is being proposed considering the absence of coherent strategy in the atheistic post-modern discourse and contingencies of the global emergencies that must be addressed.

How an ecologically sustainable / contended reverent economy is built up with happiness for all
Ecological economists are currently debating issues with the Washington consensus economist and fighting the TINA (there is no alternative) syndrome .Noam Chomsky believes in the alternative economic order and so do youths of the world who through their calls are wanting to see the change and taking up non-violent advocacy and communication for the needful change . He also believes in the alternative political and cultural order .Binary economists are calling for abolition of interest charged on the loans as they believe creation of money from thin air in the books of the bankers is responsible for lots of ecologically hostile and socially inequitable practices in consumption, production and distribution and leisure use patterns www.binaryeconomics.org .
Elimination of usury, fiat money propelling the ecologically hostile growth of urban habitats is being pointed out to be a critical factor in building a socially inclusive and ecologically safe economy. Similarly, debt free credit /interest free loans are being promoted for zero debt distressed suicides and bankruptcies.
Another major feature of contented and ecological sustainable economy is its capacity and intent for the protection of ecologically sustainable habitats with renewable resource based life support systems. It is simply impossible to envisage sustainability of non-renewable based transport systems in perpetuity. Search for nuclear energy and intense research activity in the renewable resource based energy is a proof for this. It needs to be noted that while nuclear energy in the short run appears to be carbon neutral, but in the long run, this is also not sustainable as there are limited resources for running the reactors. It is clear that resources such as uranium and thorium are not for all the time in the future. Therefore, the only solution is to decelerate and regulate the consumption of non-renewable resource based services and utilities through instituting an ecologically sustainable economy with the following features:
1.Debt free money and interest free loans with public control on the creation of money
2.Rights to renewable resource based habitats
3.Ecologically sustainable leisure use patterns
4.Distributive justice for renewable resource based livelihoods
5.Freedom from worried of energy crisis
6.Protection of Renewable resource based livelihoods
Freedom from worries of energy crisis affecting energy intensive transportation systems and habitats is an essential constituent of an ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy .At present most of the planners are concerned with the increasing energy requirements and for this some countries are ready to sacrifice their ideals and foundations of foreign policy. Left parties in India along with other parties have been vociferously opposing the loss of independence in the foreign policy of India. It is important to ensure sustainability for the renewable resource based life support systems and for this it is important to halt the loss of ecologically sustainable habitats and agricultural production methodologies. It is not possible to ensure sustainability for habitat designs that are based on unsustainable energy sources. Therefore, it is not possible to ensure sustainability for skyscraper laden urban habitats. Urban areas with energy intensive shopping malls need to be brought within ecologically sustainable limits. For this to happen, it is important to support adoption of ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance framework.
Youths as drivers of change processes and communication for transition to ecologically safe life support systems locally and globally
Creating debt free money and ensuring interest free loans in not quite easy as that requires change of hearts and minds of men and women governing the various institutions who find the proposals difficult. Success of the proposals for ecologically sustainable and socially equitable economy and polity requires multiplication of men and women who uphold the criterion of piety. It is important that the pious men and women across the world prohibiting peacefully what is wrong and prescribing what is right take charge of the governance and ensure that debt free money is created, faith based measures are adopted for mitigating the impacts of climate change. It is important to understand the need to prepare for life after death as that would impel men and women to adopt faith based measures more and more. Now, the signs of ecological distress are too compelling to avoid collective and personal actions for both mitigating and halting the impacts of climate change. Signs of ecological distress affecting the lives of billions call for taking corrective action locally and globally. Youths and corporations who are market for non-renewable energy intensive services and utilities need to be in charge. Atheistic postmodernist laissez faire regimen of cultural, political and moral governance needs to be critically reviewed as they damage the survival interests of the billions in here and now and that of future generations.
Hurdles in the way/ constraints
There are hurdles in the way for such a massive change taking place simultaneously and globally and most pernicious among the faith based notions are that of neo-liberal atheistic ideology where market and profit devoid of the concerns of eternal interests of mankind are permitted to have full freedom. It is dominance of atheistic neo-liberal ideology that prevents men and women from adopting the faith based pious measures for addressing the global and local challenges. Media channels such as MTV with adoring participation of youths indoctrinated in the atheistic visions of good life are busy in creating models of copy cat consumption and leisure use patterns globally with local vernacular channels following in line. Starting with English music content in 90’s now MTV has more of Hindi songs and dance forms with direct message for youths for copying the ecologically leisure use pattern including partying ,dancing and drinking of intoxicating drinks.
The second hurdle is the lack on coherent national and international policy with respect to addressing the climate change. While Kyoto protocol emission target call for reduction in the emission of green house gases, national development strategies continue to be inspired by the perception of competitive disadvantage. It is dangerous to have such incoherence for long time as the assessments of climate scientists are too compelling. Speaking on the occasion of a meeting to the launch the full report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on the impacts of global warming, Professor Martin Parry, a climate scientist with MET office in UK and co-chairman of the working group for the report said, “We are all used to talking about the impact of these changes coming in the lifetime of our children and grand children. Now we know that it is us.” He added that politicians had wasted a decade in focussing on ways to cut emissions, and had woken up recently to the need to adapt. He felt that “mitigation has got all the attention, but we cannot mitigate out of this problem. We have now a choice between a damaged world and a severely damaged world”. (The Hindu 20 September 2007)
The hurdle can be seen through assessing the levels of convergence for the various agencies and their functioning. While there are calls for higher rates of growth, they are not assessed in the light of the demands of ecological sustainability. Even the promotion of indexes such as “sustainability index” is not getting the required attention and it has been left to the discretion of the nations. There are evidences of lack of interagency cooperation and United National Development Programme (UNDP) appears to be working against the mandate of United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Environment assessments /ministries are slighted for benefiting ecologically hostile proposals/ policies. More often than not considerations of ecological sustainability are ignored for sanctioning ecologically hostile projects. This is evident from the sanction of Special Economic Zones despite the violent and non-violent resistance of farmers in India as they did not want to give up on their only source of ecologically sustainable livelihoods through farming. Committee for Campaign on National Himalayan Policy for the ecologically fragile Himalayan region in India has been calling for redefinition of development policy.
Therefore there is a need to institute a governance framework that is both ecologically safe and socially inclusive with reference to poor, old, children and women, ethnic and religious groups residing both in rural and urban habitats.
Labour League Foundation along with several youth led organisations considers the need for establishing ecologically safe and socially inclusive governance with the following features:
1.A governance that is cognizant of the needs of poor, rights of farmers and villages to ecologically sustainable livelihoods and habitats
2.Governance that eliminates fictitious inflationary money and usurious loans created from thin air and responsible for expansion of ecologically hostile habitats
3. Governance that promotes pious and ecologically safe consumption and production pattern
4.A government that plans for ecologically safe disaster free future for all
5.Governance that ensure ecologically safe distribution of natural resources
6.Governance that works for the interests of all
7.Governance that ensures policy making for the rights of children, future generations and poor

Youth strategies
1.Multiplication of carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) across the cities and villages
These discussions initiated by youth and community elders in the neighbourhood where they gather for collective prayer, discussions and other social engagements. The recommendations of the discussions and simultaneous action compiled at various levels will be presented in the form of a memorandum to the local and world leader gathered in various summits and events accelerating the generation of ecologically safe survival and development policies and multiplication of ecologically safe survival policies. Local impacts will be generated through transformation of the leisure use pattern, consumption pattern, production systems ensuring minimisation of emission of green house gases and galvanising mass communication strategies for reduction in the personal contribution to the green house gases. The discussions on the urgency of reducing green house gases lead to the transformation of personal level consumption patterns. Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance (CEASIG), a Delhi based organisation believes that personal responses are critical for transformation of the consumption patterns. Unsustainable consumption patterns can be halted with the personal responses. Personal responses are always part of the global responses. Carbon neutral neighbourhood discussions (CNNDs) will multiply ecologically safe responses across the urban and rural areas.
2.Multiplication of ecologically safe responses through promotion of green journalism
Production of analytical and advisory outputs through journalists is critical and they are one of the major stakeholders in shaping the opinions, consumption patterns. Journalists writing on lifestyle can substantially influence the consumption pattern of people in the urban areas. They can help in shaping the tastes and defining the choices. Journalists are important is generating democratic consensus for halting unsustainable consumption patterns. In our times, journalists play a very critical and sometimes they are responsible for defining the social, cultural and political trends. Youth organisations call for securing the future of villages, children and future generations with ecologically sustainable habitats, consumption patterns while ensuring inter-species justice.
3.Catalysing green politics
Labour league Foundation and Centre for Ecological Audit, Social Inclusion and Governance along with many organisations globally will be supporting the process for open and transparent politics for instilling the importance of ecologically safe green ideals. Youth organisations will be organising meetings with the representatives of the various media organisations and political parties and seek inclusion of ecological considerations in editorial policies and election manifestoes. Media organisations need to be visionary organisations and help in the preparation for an emerging future bereft of petro-modern consumption, transport, habitat and production systems.
4.Transformation of leisure use patterns
Youth organisations and youth wish to realise the millennium development goals for eliminating the unsustainable consumption patterns and wish to do so through suggesting transformation of the leisure use pattern. Suggestions for adoption of faith based measures that are common across the religious texts need to be taken seriously as part of global cultural commons. As indicated through the diagrammatic representation of the impact of adoption of faith based measures, youths call for generating interfaith consensus for acting simultaneously for transforming the leisure use patterns.
5.Calculation of ecological footprints, eliminating ecological rucksacks, returning to the ecologically sustainable habitats of the past for securing the ecological safe future of children and future generations
Youth call for dissemination of the practice of measuring ecological footprints for getting the desired actions for reducing the number of decisions involving emission of green house gases. Similarly, awareness on the loss of rocks due to excessive mining is critical for eliminating the amount of ecological losses. It is critical to value the conventional housing designs that use mud, grass, bamboo and wood. The definition of poverty considering the possession of adobe dwellings as a sign of poverty needs to be revised.
6.Ecological Audit of the consumption processes and patterns
The ecological audit is a concept proposed by Dr.Muhammad Mukhtar Alam, the chairman of Labour League Foundation http://muhammad_mukhtar_alam.tigblog.org .This needs to be used along with the calculation of ecological footprints, environment audit/ green audit for assessing the impact of various decision and consumption patterns. Globalisation of the ecological audit at all levels is needed for supporting ecologically sustainable consumption patterns. This is important for realising the millennium development goals for environment sustainability by the year 2015. It is proposed that reports on sustainability index are incorporated in the formulation of the ecologically safe development policy.
7.Ecological Audit of the production systems / patterns
Production processes need to be assessed for ecological sustainability. There are ecologically sustainable and unsustainable production processes. The workshops with corporations interested in realising the millennium development goals will be conducted for getting in the changes in production processes. Youths believe based on the predictions on the oil reserves that Petro-modern production systems do not have a long future. Reducing energy demand for ecologically unsustainable production, consumption patterns is critical for halting the expansion of deserts and regularisation of rainfalls.
8.Ecological Audit of the transport systems / patterns
Renewable resource based transport systems are sustainable and non-renewable resource based transport systems are not sustainable. Ecological Audit of the transport systems needs to be encouraged for all organisations and ministries dealing with transport. Minimising / Eliminating travel is critical for ecologically sustainable habitats. We need to prepare for the end of petro-modern age.
9.Ecological Audit of the leisure use patterns-
There are leisure use patterns that do not use green house gas producing fossil fuels and there are leisure use patterns that are based on renewable resources and that does not involve consumption of fossil fuels. Workshop with the neighbourhood discussion leaders and resident welfare associations needs to be conducted for necessary transformation of leisure use patterns. Children, youths and elders need to be encouraged to adopt faith based measures for relaxation and stress busting. There are several studies that have demonstrated the impact of prayer and meditation on stress levels. Ecological audit of the leisure engagements need to be supported for getting the desired response for reduction in the emission of green house gases through transformation of leisure use patterns.
10.Interfaith dialogue for addressing the climate change, farmer’s suicides, and social security for workers in unorganized sector and transforming finance sector
Appreciation of the common commands for prayer, donation, compassion, charity and prohibition of usury, adultery, and homosexuality is needed with wider dissemination of the same. Adoption of these commands addresses the challenge of climate change, ecologically hostile usurious system, AIDS and so on. Inter-faith dialogue will ensure generation of responses across the faith groups. Delhi has a vibrant culture of interfaith dialogue. Sant Rajinder Singh of Sawan Kripal Ashram has been conducting the same for many years. Youth organisation need to work independently or in collaboration with faith based organisations for generating more forums of interfaith dialogue.
11.National/ regional/ city/ village based conventions on Inter Faith common responses for addressing the climate change-
Governments need to be encouraged for holding national conventions for generating consensus for adoption of faith based measures for addressing the climate change. There are cultural responses for fighting the atheistic neo-liberal cultural trends emanating from Europe and copied by youth in the name of globalisation and modernity. National Convention will address the issue of climate change through adopting the interfaith commons while preserving religious diversity and ecologically sustainable dietary, sartorial, linguistic diversities.
12.Carbon neutral Youth colloquiums / meetings / Majlis-e-Naujawan/ Yuva Harit Bharat Sabha/../../
Youths propose globalisation of local efforts for contributing in the mitigation of the impacts of climate change. Governments recognise the critical role of youths as more and more organisations led by youths are involved in consultation. It is suggested that Green youth forums with vernacular names need to be formed and discussions be held with active government support for getting the desired response pattern for halting the expansion of unsustainable consumption pattern and leisure use pattern through adoption of faith based measures.
Conclusion:
Imagining the responses of the weaker species in the face of man made onslaughts on the non-renewable resources , many youths across the world recognise the threats represented through the expression of anguish of the billions of poor who are angry, dispossessed and seeking an end to the process of non-renewable resource based usurious finance fuelled expansion of consumption and production pattern that is causing serious loss of livelihood for millions across the Earth and call upon all the governments, civil society organisations, corporations engaged in ecologically hostile production processes to boycott the ecologically hostile usurious finance and prevent further loss of ecologically sustainable habitats that are an immediate outcome of the expansion of ecologically hostile non-renewable resource based habitats. Nations need to compete in establishing the models of ecologically safe economy, polity and culture. Youth of the world are ready to become a leader along with Muslims, Greens and men and women of the world who wish to halt the political expansion of the atheistic neo-liberal ideology that is responsible for exacerbating the ecological distress demonstrated through the increased incidence of drought and expansion of deserts causing suffering for millions. Adaptation is the weakest response and youths call for halting the negative impacts of climate change. Nothing is impossible.
