Edited by Christian Nellemann, Stefan Hain and Jackie Adler;

launched on 22 February 2008 during the 10th Special Session of

describes the impact of climate change on the

World's declining fish stocks, which could affect millions of

people who depend on the oceans for food and income. The report

was prepared for UNEP by GA and UNEP-WCMC with contributions

from various individuals and institutions including the University of

Plymouth, the Norwegian Institute for Nature Research, the

University of British Columbia, the Institute of Zoology, Princeton

GA facilitated the preparation of the

Climate Neutral Net website

,,

also launched in Monaco in February 2008. The Network, a web-

based project, is designed to organize the small but growing wave of

nations, local authorities and companies who are pledging

significant reductions in emissions en route to zero emission

economies, communities and businesses. The aim is a truly global

information exchange network open to all sectors of society from

presidents, prime ministers and princes to ordinary people around

the World.

Environment and Poverty Times

www.grida.no/publications/et/ep5/

GA published a new edition of

Environment and Poverty Times

that was launched at the TICAD IV Conference in Yokohama, Japan

in May 2008. The paper features short articles, maps, graphics and

other illustrations that focus on the complex links between

environment and poverty reduction. It describes how natural

resources can contribute to economic growth that also benefits the

poor. It shows how the right mixture of entrepreneurship,

investments and enabling policies at national and international

levels can create economic opportunities for people to move beyond

subsistence levels. The Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and

the World Resources Institute provided support for the preparation

of the paper.
