The Decline of Climate Week NYC Shows the Net Zero Dream is Dying Wed Sep 24, 2025 07:00 | Tilak Doshi
As New York hosts Climate Week NYC ? "the world?s largest climate event" ? the absence of any major global leaders speaks volumes, says Tilak Doshi. Mugged by reality, the Net Zero dream is dying.

The Exaltation of the Cross Tue Sep 23, 2025 15:00 | Chris Larkin
Church leaders are too quick to condemn Tommy Robinson and the Unite the Kingdom march, says Chris Larkin. We don't know what Jesus would have made of our politics, but we can?t just assume he?d have been a Lib Dem voter.

Objet : Barcelona 2004
dimanche 15 février 2004
Monsieur,
La volonté de Barcelona 2004 de travailler en étroite collaboration avec de nombreuses multinationales dont les politiques me parait de nature à orienter les débats et les travaux dans une direction incompatible avec la mise en place d'un développement économique respectueux des sociétés et de leur environnement naturel.
Deux d'entre elles en particulier, Coca-cola et Nestlé, ont été et sont toujours fortement critiquées pour leur indifférence par rapport aux impacts négatifs que leur recherche avide de profits ont sur les petits et moyens paysans du monde entier. L'exemple de l'usine de mise en bouteille de Coca-cola à Plachimada, dans l'état du Kerala dans le sud de l'Inde est révélateur du peu de cas que cette compagnie fait des ressources locales en eau. Nestlé pour sa part investit agressivement dans le secteur des eaux minérales sans porter la moindre attention à l'augmentation inutile des transports de marchandises.
D'autres multinationales qui appuient Barcelona 2004 se sont également retrouvées en confrontation directe avec des organisations et des associations partenaires de la Confédération paysanne depuis de nombreuses années.
Le patronage ostentatoire de ces entreprises avec lesquelles nous sommes en conflit ne me permet pas de répondre favorablement à l'invitation que vous m'avez faite de participer au Dialogue "Water for Life and Security".
Par conséquent et afin de lever toute ambiguïté, je vous serai reconnaissant de ne plus me faire figurer dans la liste des personnalités invitées, indiquée sur le document que Barcelona 2004 diffuse actuellement sur son site Internet.
Je vous prie d'agréer l'expression de ma considération distinguée.
