Great piece from Banamallika Choudhury of the Apwld - Asia Pacific - TopicsExpress



          

Great piece from Banamallika Choudhury of the Apwld - Asia Pacific Forum on Women Law and Development- currently here in Bonn at the UNFCCC as part of the Women and Gender Constituency and the EWA Program. No matter how much they harp about development and growth, this is bad news for people. You may believe that nuclear power, coal plants, palm oil, dams and river linking projects will bring in prosperity. You will be foolish to fall for this rhetoric. For, development as it is being pushed by the neo-liberal model (read the current ways of doing things) has caused more harm to the world and its people in the last decades than it has benefited. Some of these damages are irreversible and this is what is wrong with it.
