Rio+20 2012 mer än bara miljöomsorg
Maurice Strong för Unep om Rio+20 2012:
"Maurice Strong stressed that Rio+20 must endorse and be grounded in the Earth Charter, embracing its moral and ethical principles.Recalling the concept of shared but differentiated responsibilities; Mr. Strong stressed the need for it to be strongly reinforced at the conference.
He pointed out a number of actions, which would make Rio+20 a milestone including,
establishment of a process of assessment of each country’s past commitments, further leading to a system where countries failing to meet commitments would be subject to penalties and sanctions
establishing earth bonds as a form of investment instrument for sustainable development projects
establishing a system where victims of environmental damage can seek legal recourse and compensation
clarify and strengthen the role of UNEP by agreeing to accord it the status of a specialized agency’, which could lead to the establishment of a World Environment Organization "

"The Earth Charter is a declaration of fundamental ethical principles for building a just, sustainable and peaceful global society in the 21st century. It seeks to inspire in all people a new sense of global interdependence and shared responsibility for the well-being of the whole human family, the greater community of life, and future generations. It is a product of a decade-long, worldwide, cross cultural dialogue on common goals and shared values."
