  The Effects of Mega-Herbivore Extinctions on Seed Dispersal and Community Structure in An East African Savanna

summary:
  Extinction of large mammalian herbivore species that selectively consume seeds and fruits may reduce the overall abundance of fleshy-fruited plant species by limiting the dispersal of seeds and, in turn, lowering rates of recruitment and establishment (Pringle et al. 2014, Janzen et al. 1984). To assess the effects of large herbivore exclosure treatments on plant abundance, we sampled three blocks (three types of herbivore exclosure treatment and one control each) in the UHURU sites, yielding three replicates for each treatment and for the control.

  Identifying Conservation Strategies for Group-Spawning Coral Reef Fish in the Indo-Pacific, Using a Case Study of a Protogynous Giant Wrasse

summary:
  In Papua New Guinea, access to the fish is gendered— women are not permitted to consume it—and it has had a role in defining gender roles in Guam, where spearing a humphead wrasse was once a rite of passing into manhood (Sadovy et al. 2004). Group spawning and, more generally, spawning aggregations, are interesting phenomena worthy of scientific inquiry for a variety of reasons.

summary:
  It is suggested that an emphasis on the shifting, contextualized and relative term ―needs‖ in the definition of sustainable development has led to paralysis at the international level in addressing environmental problems, particularly climate change. Abstract Discussions of global environmental governance seem to have gotten nowhere in the last thirty years despite environmental problems that continue to grow in scope and magnitude.

Such differences could also speak to the legacies of civil society in the two nations, or the ways in which the government is handling climate change and sustainable development issues specifically.

summary:

Before sustainable grasscutter farms can be implemented in Kenya, however, a strategic analysis of the efficacy of such a project is required.

  Energy Sustainability and Pope Francis’ Encyclical on Care for our Common Home: National Policies and Corporations as Change Agents

summary:
  In fact, recent reports suggest that despite a brief dip in carbon emissions in 2009, carbon pumped into the atmosphere exceeded 40 gigatonnes in 2013 with CO2 added at a rate of almost 2ppm per year (Plait, 2014), a tonnage and rate which makes a damaging temperature increase of over two degrees Celsius all but inevitable (Harvey, 2011). However, the tax only kicks in when a preset limit on carbon emission (which differs by industry and type of firm) has been reached.

Given the capacity of non-state actors to supply expert knowledge on localized issues, assist in implementation of policies, increase the quality of environmental governance by influencing agenda-setting, and galvanize political will as public advocates for environmental reforms, Dr. Perrez is surely justified in claiming that NGOs ought not be overlooked as key allies in addressing critical and time-sensitive issues of global environmental degradation.

  Health or Agricultural Development: Boundary Objects and Organizations in a Soya Project in Western Kenya

summary:
  While the Ministry of Agriculture in Kakamega had reported the Bukura project to be an example of significant success in soya bean processing in Western Kenya, a field visit revealed that the nearly year-old Vitagoat system was operated at a quarter of its daily capacity and was utilized actively by a sole soya farmer, who operated a mildly successful soya yoghurt business by selling door to door in the surrounding area. As one of the few crops to simultaneously answer to the demands of both fields, an analysis of soybeans (commonly known in the development context as soya beans) and their use in aid and development projects provides an interesting entry point into this boundary management discussion.

After a short discussion of the main functions and challenges of environmental governance the paper addresses the issue of stakeholder participation and the claim of “democratic deficits” in international environmental governance.

  Over time, our informal conversations led to a short household survey on ownership of a collection of household assets (i.e., table, bench, mattress, radio, etc.) that we used to determine eligibility for health insurance. We analyzed the data with a pattern recognition technique called principle components analysis, and correlated the results with previous ownership of health insurance.

  Determinants of Market Participation in Nigerian Small-Scale Fishery Sector: Evidence from Niger Delta Region

summary:
  Then, in each state, one agricultural zone each was purposively selected based on availability of fisheries and fish markets in the area. The result shows that, among the ten covariates (age, household size, education, income, distant to the nearest market, market information, price of the commodity, credit access, marketing experience and household head sex) considered for the model, participation in fish market is influenced to a great extent by the following four covariates: household size, distant to the nearest marketing channel, price of the commodity and sex of the fish farmer/marketer.

NGOs commonly implement the same development projects over and over again, regardless of the data obtained in project evaluations, if such evaluations are conducted at all (Ferguson, 1990).

  It should be noted that both regions have experienced significant population movements, a risk factor for the spread of malaria resistance: approximately 200 000 people cross from Cambodia into Thailand on average per annum, and in Uganda, civil conflict forced 2 million people into Internally Displaced Persons, or IDP, camps – 1 million have returned home since. Although, at this moment, there is no hard evidence of any ACT resistance within the Ugandan population, this paper will explore, through published and unpublished sources, and a baseline survey conducted in July 2008 by AMREF (African Medical and Research Foundation, an international medical organisation based in Kenya), how this resistance will soon emerge in Uganda, what the precipitating factors are, and through a careful evaluation of these causes, offer courses of action so as avoid the devastating consequences of ACT resistance.

Ebeling & Yasue correlate Human Development Indicators (HDIs) with areas likely to benefit from REDD schemes and find that the program will most likely not target the regions with the direst human development needs (2008).

Beason and Weinstein (1996) argue that such a view of Japanese industrial policy is mistaken; in particular, that 1) there is, if any, a negative association between Japanese sectoral productivity growth and the amount of targeting a sector receives, and 2) application of industrial policy tools is heavily skewed to politically influential sectors.

  Accounting for Threats to Sustainable Development: An Indicator for Holding NGOs and International Organizations Accountable to Creating the Context for Sustainable Development

summary:
  In the next sub-section, we begin to generate a list of these new risks to sustainable development before considering how to incorporate them into global disaster risk management systems that can offer the “insurance” to protect resources of countries and communities so that they may then move to plan for sustainable development. Theoretical Context Expanding and strengthening the approach to sustainable development by communities and countries and development agencies requires placing the concepts of disaster risk management and systems for supporting disaster risk management functions within the context of sustainable development and within the context of government functions.

While existing tools use individual segments of these approaches, the time is ripe to integrate them for a comprehensive and holistic farm-level assessment which provides recommendations for improvement of resilience using locally and globally sourced solutions presented in a farmer-centric approach.

  Consilience 10 living along coastal zones it expected to increase by 11 million over the next seven years, which will further stress surrounding ecosystems.50 Projections indicate that coastal zones will only face more stress in the coming years, which puts increased importance on coastal zone management.

  North-South Imbalances in the International Trade Regime: Why the WTO Does Not Benefit Developing Countries as Much as it Could

summary:
  16 Examples include the Agreement on Agriculture (which required developed countries to cut their tariffs by 36% over six years whereas developing countries were given 10 years to lower their tariffs by only 24% while LDCs were exempted from tariff reductions altogether), the TRIPS Agreement (which gave industrial countries one year to implement its provisions, but developing countries five and LDCs eleven years), and the Agreement on SCM (which has implementation provisions similar to TRIPS). Consequently, after the implementation of Uruguay Round commitments, trade-weighted developed-country tariffs against imports from developing countries are on average more than four times higher than against goods produced by other developed countries (3.4% vs. 0.8%) (Hertel/Martin 2000: 464).
