| The remnants of the Maldives' past dictatorship must not be allowed to sink Mohamed Nasheed's fledgling democracy
When Mohamed Nasheed was elected president of the Maldives in late 2008, ending Maumoon Abdul Gayoom's 30 years of rule, he brought into office the hopes and aspirations of the Maldives' 350,000 people.
The new, British-educated president started well, releasing journalists and prisoners of conscience incarcerated by the former regime, closing down a notorious jail where dissidents were held and tortured and forgoing the opulence of Gayoom's palaces and Mercedes, choosing instead to live in a modest bungalow and walk to work.
The freedoms ordinary Maldivians now enjoy – to criticise, to demonstrate, to join a political party ... |

Where next for the wrecked US climate bill?
|
29.7.2010 |
Guardian: Environment |
| There is a chance build on the rubble of the Senate's failure to cap carbon emissions, says Eric Pooley
Following the rocky path of climate legislation in the U.S. Congress these past years brought me back to the 1980s, and my time as a crime reporter in New York City. After a shooting in those days, a homicide detective named Marty Davin would go to the hospital and intercept the gunshot victim on a gurney outside the emergency room. If the victim was conscious, Davin would lean over and ask, "Who killed you?"
That usually got the victim's attention, along with an I'm-not-dead-yet protest. Davin would reply, "You are going to die. You might as well tell me who did it."
As I interviewed the sponsor of whichever emissions-reduction bill ... |

Greenpeace exposes Indonesian palm oil firm's 'broken' rainforest pledge
|
29.7.2010 |
Guardian: Environment |
| New evidence shows country's largest palm and pulp group is breaking its environmental commitments by destroying critical habitats
Greenpeace said today it had fresh evidence that palm oil firms linked to Indonesian agribusiness giant Sinar Mas have bulldozed rainforest and destroyed endangered orang-utan habitats in Kalimantan.
The charges were denied by palm oil firm PT SMART Tbk, part of Sinar Mas, which has already said it would stop clearing critical forests.
The accusations, levelled by Greenpeace in a new report , are the latest chapter in a long and bitter dispute between the conservationists and a key player in one of Indonesia's biggest industries, palm oil.
The high-stakes battle has already led to top palm oil-buyers ... |
