Australian David Holgrem is best known as the co-originator with Bill Mollison of the permaculture concept. For over 25 years permaculture has provided a coherent design framework for a broad range of empowering strategies for living with less and less energy. While the understanding and adoption of these strategies has been slow in an era of abundant energy, the emerging era of energy descent will make many radical permaculture solutions natural and obvious. As well as constant involvement in the practical side of permaculture, David is passionate about the philosophical and conceptual foundations for sustainability that are highlighted in his latest book, Permaculture: Principles and Pathways Beyond Sustainability. In this lecture David will provide a refreshing and unorthodox approach to the environmental issues of our time. read full story / add a comment

If one as an investigative journalist wants to stay alive, one way to do it is 'serving' the explosive information in portions. First fifty%, then 25, and the last 25% is a kind of 'life guard': used until a 'case of emergency' erupts, like when the journalist or whistleblower is "suicided". read full story / add a comment

Following a week of mixed signals from the US Administration about the future of the Guantánamo Bay detention camp, Amnesty International said that the Administration's announcement that it is to expand the prison is the wrong decision and will fuel worldwide concern over the stories of torture and ill-treatment, religious humiliation and arbitrary detention that are seeping from the facility. read full story / add a comment
