Niger: � emergenza, ma gli aiuti non sono distribuiti

06/30/2005 "Migliaia di bambini del Niger presto moriranno di fame se le nazioni ricche del mondo non invieranno il cibo necessario a fermare una crisi alimentare divenuta disastrosa". L'allarme arriva dal capo missione di Medici senza frontiere (Msf) nel Paese africano. "Nessuno si preoccupa di uno scenario che i grandi Paesi donatori sembrano avere accettato" - ha detto Johanne Sekkenes. E i dati che giungono dai centri di assistenza alimentare di Msf sottolineano la portata di una tragedia che si sta compiendo sotto gli occhi della comunit� internazionale: nonostante i magazzini siano pieni, il miglio � ancora inaccessibile per le persone pi� colpite dalla mancanza di cibo. Lontano dall�essere una catastrofe naturale, questa grave crisi alimentare era prevedibile. Sebbene il sistema di sicurezza alimentare, co-gestito dal governo e i paesi donatori, si sia impegnato, sulla carta, a fornire assistenza a queste popolazioni, si rivela oggi incapace di rispondere all'emergenza

Clima: Africa in fumo, diamo la sveglia ai G8

06/29/2005 Varie Ong internazionali hanno reso pubblico un rapporto dal titolo �Africa; Up in Smoke?� in cui si chiede ai leader dei paesi del G8 di prendere iniziative immediate per le energie rinnovabili contrastando i cambiamenti climatici, altrimenti gli sforzi per eliminare la povert� nel continente africano si riveleranno vani. �Amici della Terra� sta promuovendo una virtual action che si terr� simbolicamente il 7 luglio alle 13.45. Intanto oggi a Londra e all�Aja, in occasione delle riunioni annuali degli azionisti della Shell si � tenuta una protesta di numerosi gli esponenti delle comunit� impattate dai devastanti progetti della multinazionale petrolifera. Sul caso della Nigeria � partita una denuncia la scorsa settimana con l�intento di far cessare la pratica del "gas flaring", ovvero la combustione in torcia del gas che fuoriesce dai pozzi petroliferi.
