Britain’sRoyal Commissi<strong>on</strong> found that elementary energyefficiency measures such as high quality insulati<strong>on</strong>of new buildings could cut energy use in the servicesector by 18 per cent within a few years, and thatproper insulati<strong>on</strong>, good design and using combinedheat and power plants to provide local hot water andelectricity could together slash energy use in homesby between 25 and 34 per cent in a few years (www.rcep.org.uk). The Institute for Science in Society(Mae Wan Ho et al., op. cit. supra note 2) meanwhilestresses the benefits in reduced food miles and fossilfuel use from a more self-reliant, organic agriculture– which must be promoted for other reas<strong>on</strong>s as well.51 Lipow, op. cit. supra note 10.52 ‘Super-adobe’ is a refinement <strong>on</strong> rammed-earthc<strong>on</strong>structi<strong>on</strong> in which wet soil under pressure(mixed with a little cement) is pumped into bags thatare coiled together and bound with barbed wire.The technique is low-impact and results in sturdy,earthquake-proof buildings. See California Instituteof Earth Art and Architecture, CalEarth Forum, July2005, http://www.calearth.org/.53 China reported large reducti<strong>on</strong>s in emissi<strong>on</strong>sin the late 1990s, attributed partly to technicalimprovements in boiler technology. But recentanalysis suggests that these ‘reducti<strong>on</strong>s’ may bemainly due to bureaucratic changes in who was doingthe reporting. Pre-1996 emissi<strong>on</strong>s figures may havebeen inflated by coal mine officials eager to showthey had met producti<strong>on</strong> targets, which were laterdisc<strong>on</strong>tinued.

In the best traditi<strong>on</strong>sof academic bean-counting, Pretty and Ward estimatethat the number of new local groups protectingwatersheds, irrigati<strong>on</strong> systems and forests andworking in microfinance, integrated pest management,and farmers research in 25 countries emerging in thedecade to 2001 al<strong>on</strong>e comes to around 408,000–478,000.67 Douglas Kysar points out that, <strong>on</strong> <strong>on</strong>e view, the UShas deliberately undermined various internati<strong>on</strong>alenvir<strong>on</strong>mental agreements as a prelude to pointingto their ‘inefficacy’ as a reas<strong>on</strong> for adopting ‘marketliberalism’.

See http://www.wcc-coe.org/wcc/what/jpc/dossier.html. According to AndrewSimms of the New Ec<strong>on</strong>omics Foundati<strong>on</strong>, duringthe 1980s, USD 2.20 out of every USD 100 worth ofec<strong>on</strong>omic growth reached society’s poorest. In the1990s, this figure fell to USD 0.60.70 See http://www.indymedia.no/newswire/display/19605/index.php for the full text.71 R. W. Kates, ‘Cauti<strong>on</strong>ary Tales: Adaptati<strong>on</strong> and theGlobal Poor’, Climatic <strong>Change</strong> 45, 2000, pp. 5–17.Wolfgang Sachs adds that a ‘claim for equity <strong>on</strong> thebasis of c<strong>on</strong>venti<strong>on</strong>al development’ – a perennialinterest of ruling elites in the South as well as theNorth – ‘is simply not credible’, since developmentdoesn’t lead to equity (interview in <strong>Climate</strong> EquityObserver, 12 May 2001, www.ecoequity.org/ceo/ceo_3_4.htm).72 Michael Thomps<strong>on</strong> et al., Uncertainty <strong>on</strong> a HimalayanScale, Milt<strong>on</strong> Ash, L<strong>on</strong>d<strong>on</strong>, 1986, pp. 71, 87–88, 106.73 Ashis Nandy, The Intimate Enemy: Loss and Recoveryof Self under Col<strong>on</strong>ialism, Oxford University Press,New Delhi, 1989.74 Stephen Gudeman and Alberto Rivera, <str<strong>on</strong>g>C<strong>on</strong>versati<strong>on</strong></str<strong>on</strong>g>sin Colombia: The Domestic Ec<strong>on</strong>omy in Life and Text,Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1990.75 James Lovelock, The Revenge of Gaia: Why the Earthis Fighting Back and How we can Still Save Humanity,Allen Lane, L<strong>on</strong>d<strong>on</strong>, 2006, pp. 155, 153.
