30 April 08 IYPF Brief - TNEP & Climate Change Resources
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

hi again everyone

following on from our 7 april update, we are progressing on compiling our first newsletter of 2008 (and everything else - esp the IYPS 2008!).

while we are preparing our newsletter, i wanted to send you the below and attached from The Natural Edge Project.

this was prepared for an edition of our newsletter that was supposed to come out last december, but since it didn't run, you were not sent this!

since climate change continues to be - and will continue to be for a long time - a defining issue of our lives as young professionals, i figured it valuable to get this out and put it in your hands.

so read below and see the attached resource - and link to other resources from there :)

yours for a better world for all

cameron

ceo, iypf

New TNEP Resources on Climate Change

The Natural Edge Project (TNEP) is a group of young professionals that has been an IYPF partner for 5 years. One of TNEP's main areas of work in the last 3 years has been focused on researching and communicating the most cost effective solutions to mitigate climate change. TNEP does this through a wide variety of media including consensus building documents with the business community (www.nblf.com.au), online course materials (used by universities, professional firms, business and government) and a range of succinct publications including book chapters and media articles (www.naturaledgeproject.net/TNEPArticles.aspx). Since Al Gore's film, An Inconvenient Truth, there has been a significant shift.

The Natural Edge Project in partnership with Griffith Uni and ANU created a new online Sustainable Energy Solutions to Mitigate Climate Change Portfolio. This Portfolio shows how young professionals can play their part and help their families, friends and workplace rapidly achieve cuts to greenhouse gas emissions. The Portfolio is presented as an online text book with 9 chapters with 30 lectures in total. Each lecture has a clear aim, an executive summary of key points, a list of recommended online resources and a 10-15 page overview of the topic. The structure for each online lecture is designed to enable you to quickly find what you are looking for. This package looks at energy efficiency opportunities in the home and at work, opportunities for renewable energy, sustainable transport options and also the carbon offsets. To conclude, this new package is designed to empower any young professional to empower their family, friends and work colleagues to be able to quickly see how we can all rapidly reduce our carbon footprints.

The new Sustainable Energy Solutions to Mitigate Climate Change Portfolio is available at - www.naturaledgeproject.net/Sustainable_Energy_Solutions_Portfolio.aspx

A 2-page guide to online energy and climate change resources by TNEP is available here:

Climate Migitation
I think the real problem were facing here is the effects of the negative works of man! Now gloal warming has became more serious and worst than before. So maybe, if we can persuade people to hear our cause then I think we can come up to solutions that have effect, not only for the climate change but also other problems of mankind...
