1. Erdohelyzet
--------------
Erdo-fedettseg a vilagon (SciAm 96/11)
1990-ben a vilag szarazfoldjeinek negyedet erdo boritotta. Az osszes
erdoknek Oroszorszag birtokolja kb. az otodet, Brazilia a hetedet,
Kanada es az USA egyarant kb. 6-7 szazalekot. A vilagon szinte minden
orszagban irtottak az erdoket (tuzi- epuletfaert, vagy egyszeruen csak
a teruletre volt szukseg).
- Az USA teruleten jelenleg 22% erdo van, az europai bevandorlast meg-
  elozo 40% fedettseghez kepest; viszont az erdoteruletek 1920 ota nem
  csokkennek. Gondot jelent az erdok biodiverzitasanak csokkenese es a
  fagazdalkodas csokkeno hatekonysaga
- Europaban a volt Szu teruletenek kb. 30%-at boritja erdo, az eredeti
  kiterjedesnek kb. fele. Kelet-Europaban legnagyobb problema jelenleg
  a levelhullatas (defoliation), aminek a szennyezett levego a fo oka.
  A volt Szu teruleten a szennyezes mellett az ujraerdositesek hianya 
  jelent veszelyt.
- Eszak-Afrika es a Kozep-Kelet teruletenek 2%-at boritja erdo, amely
  meg az 1980-1990 kozotti idoszakban is csokkent. Ezzel szemben Kinaban
  tomeges ujraerdositesi programokba kezdtek, aminek eredmenyekeppen nott
  az erdoterulet, amely jelenleg 14%.
- A kozelmult legnagyobb csokkenese a tropusokon kovetkezett be, ahol
  1960 es 1990 kozott az erdoterulet otodet irtottak ki. Ezen belul is
  a tropusi Azsia szenvedte el a legnagyobb veszteseget, erdoinek kb.
  harmadat. A 80-as evekben szinte minden tropusi orszagban csokkent az
  erdoterulet; kivetel csupan India, ahol mintegy 5%-kal nott. Brazili-
  aban, ahol a vilag tropusi erdoinek harmada talalhato, 1980 ota 5%-kal
  csokkent az erdoterulet. A vilagon 137 millio hektar tropusi erdot ir-
  tottak ki [ebben az idoszakban] - ez akkora terulet, mint Spanyolor-
  szag, Franciaorszag es Nemetorszag egyuttveve. Az erdoirtasok fele
  a mezogazdasagi teruletek novelese erdekeben tortent.

2. Privatizacio
---------------
Nem kell Pirost csepulni a "forgatokonyvek" miatt, o csak bekuldte
Donella Meadows cikkenek magyar forditasat. Persze gondolom egyetert 
a tartalmaval. Kar, hogy az idealistakat el szoktak tenni az utbol
(az olyanok mint pl Sztalin fizikailag is).

A privatizacioval kapcsolatban: szerintem sem szabad privatizalni
olyan tevekenysegeket, ahol a tevekenyseg tarsadalmi hasznossaga
nem esik egybe a privat tulajdonosok erdekeivel. Eleg sok ilyent
privatizaltak most itthon (es meg nehanyat akarnak). Ennek persze
nem Gyula issza meg a levet, hanem majd mi meg a gyerekeink.

     ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT AND STRATEGIC ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 
     IN TRANSITION COUNTRIES: AN ADVANCED COURSE FOR PRACTITIONERS
     14 - 25 July
     Course Directors: Edward Bellinger (CEU), Norman Lee (Manchester 
     University)
     Resource Persons: Clive George (Manchaster University), Dariusz Kopus 
     (WS Atkins Environment), Norman Lee (Manchester University), Kaja 
     Petersen (Stockholm Environmental Institute, Tallinn), Riki Therivel 
     (Oxford Brookes University)
     
     
     Purpose of the Course:
     
     This course has been designed for persons in universities and 
     government who
     have some knowledge of EIA and SEA and are engaged in their 
     implementation and
     teaching. Most countries in the region are in the process of drafting, 
     or have already
     drafted regulations concerning the use of EIA. Few have experience in 
     the operation
     of EIA, the way in which it should be carried out and the educational 
     and training
     needs associated with it.
     The SUN course will deal in detail with implementation and training. 
     It will
     examine the problems of making EIA effective in countries in 
     transition and how they
     can best integrate this into their current planning regulations. 
     Special attention will be
     given to needs for training, public participation, institutional and 
     procedural
     strengthening and capacity building. Participants will also be taken 
     on to the next
     stage, i.e. SEA, and look at its relevance to their own countries and 
     how it can be
     implemented.
     
     Course Description
     
     This will be a ten-day course offered to 30 participants. The first 
     section will
     look at best practice in EIA in countries in transition with special 
     reference to local
     regulations, stage by stage operation and public participation.
     The second section will be concerned with capacity building including
     institutional strengthening, technical expertise and data gathering.
     The final section will look at the overall operation of EIA and its 
     relation to
     SEA. Also the value of SEA in countries in transition will be 
     discussed. 
     
     Form and Style of Training
     
     The form of the Summer School will largely consist of short lectures 
     and
     presentations, small group discussion and case study exercises and 
     plenary reporting
     back sessions. For these purposes, one lecture room (which may be 
     divided for group
     work) plus two smaller rooms for group work should be sufficient. 
     Participants will be
     provided with some demonstrations and individual ' hands-on' 
     experience in the use of
     selected EIA software packages.
     
     ECONOMICS AND ENVIRONMENTAL ETHICS
     (30 June - 11 July)
     
     Course Director: Dr. L szl" Zsolnai (Business Ethics Center, Budapest 
     University of Economic Sciences and Netherlands Institute for Advanced 
     Study
     in Humanities and Social Sciences)
     Resource Persons: Herman E. Daly (University of Maryland, USA), 
     Warwick Fox (Murdoch University, Australia), Michael Jacobs (London 
     School of Economics), Andr s L nyi (Hungarian Academy of Sciences),

     L szl" Zsolnai (Budapest University of Economic Sciences)
     
     
     The main goal of the Summer School is to provide new insights in the 
     converging issues of economics, ecology, and ethics. The conflicting 
     demands of economic efficiency and the preservation of natural systems 
     generate hard ethical dilemmas. These dilemmas are especially relevant 
     in Eastern and Central Europe where the economic and political 
     transition present additional social and environmental problems.
     The Summer School is planned to be for two weeks in early July 1997. 
     The program is consisted of short, well-focused courses taught by 
     prominent Western and Hungarian scholars.
     
     The list of the proposed courses is as follows:
     ( 1 ) Ecology & Economics
     Herman E. Daly, University of Maryland, USA
     (2) The Legacy of E.F. Schumacher
     Diana Schumacher, The Schumacher Society, England
     (3) Environmental Valuation and Beyond
     Michael Jacobs, London School of Economics, England
     (4) Models of Economic Ethics
     Laszlo Zsolnai, Budapest University of Economic Sciences
     (5) Theories of Environmental Ethics
     Warwick Fox, Murdoch University, Australia
     (6) Environmental Problems from an Anthropological Perspective
     Istvan Rev, Central European University
     (7) Ethics in Organic Agriculture
     Zoltan Szocs, Central European University
     (8) Future Generations and Global Commons
     Boldizsar Nagy, Eotvos Lorand University
     (9) Political Democracy and Environmentalism
     Andras Lanyi, Hungarian Academy of Sciences
     
     Among the participants of the Summer School working groups will be 
     formed to discuss special issues in more depth and explore 
     opportunities for future research projects. Planned topics for the 
     working groups are responsibility, communitarianism, greening of 
     business, and post-modernity.
     
     In addition leading Hungarian philosopher, artists, and environmental 
     activists will be invited for evening discussions on related issues. 
     (Mihaly Vajda, Peter Nadas, Gabor Karatson, and Janos Vargha)
     
     The proposed summer school targets audience of young faculty members 
     and/or post-graduate students in economics, environmental sciences, 
     philosophy, sociology, law, and political science with a strong 
     interest in ethics.

Szia!

> 1. Erdohelyzet
[...]
Pontos adataidnak orulok.
De. Szerintem nem azt kene vizsgalni, hogy erdoi mekkora reszet vesztette 
el egy adott terulet, hanem inkabb azt, hogy abszolut ertelemben mennyi 
erdot veszitett el. Ebbol a szempontbol Brazilia azt hiszem nem kullog 
mar annyira hatul a sorban...

Szerintem az, hogy idezett valamit, teljesen egyenerteku azzal, mintha 
sajat maga fogalmazta volna meg es gepelte volna be. Kulonben egyelore 
nem vettem eszre, hogy barki is el akarna (illetve: hosszu tavon, 
hatekonyan, es szamottevo mertekben el tudta volna) tenni a zoldeket az 
utbol, inkabb azt veszem eszre, hogy ott vannak mindenhol es beleszolnak
mindenbe. Es ez nekem nagyon nem tetszik.

Ezt a Vilagbankot 'csepul'-o cikkre valaszoltam, elsosorban arra a 
bizonyos 30milliard dollarra gondolva. Ezzel, amit irsz, javareszben 
egyetertek, azonban ugy erzem, nem erinti irasom lenyegi mondanivalojat.
