India to host 4th Clean Energy Ministerial meeting

on March 30, 2013
PM Manmohan Singh will inaugurate the 4th Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM) meeting on 17th April which among other things would assess the steps being undertaken by various countries to pursue green initiatives.
Energy ministers from 23 countries, including US Energy Secretary Steven Chu, will come together in the national capital from April 16 to 18 to review the progress of clean energy initiatives, an official statement said in New Delhi.
Besides the ministerial meeting, the event will also host the Clean Energy Innovation Showcase, panel discussion on participation of woman in Clean Energy, Awards for the Super Efficient Appliances etc.
The ministerial meetings also provide an opportunity for high-level engagement with private-sector stakeholders in a variety of formats, ranging from public panel sessions to roundtable dialogues, co-chaired by ministers and chief executive officers, it added.
The CEM is currently the only regular meeting of energy ministers at which they exclusively discuss clean energy deployment issues.
It also includes involvement from other ministries that play an important role in clean energy in governments.
The CEM is a global forum to share best practices and promote policies and programs that encourage and facilitate the transition to a global clean energy economy.
The CEM initiatives help reduce emissions, improve energy security, provide energy access, and sustain economic growth.
CEM participating economies account for 90 per cent of global clean energy investment and 80 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions.
International collaboration under CEM is action-oriented and flexible and there are no negotiated texts or binding agreements. There is no requirement that all governments that participate in the ministerial meetings also participate in each of the clean-energy-focused initiatives.
The first Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM1) was hosted by US Secretary of Energy Steven Chu in Washington, DC, in July 2010. The United Arab Emirates hosted the second Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM2) in Abu Dhabi in April 2011. United Kingdom hosted the third Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM3) in London in April 2012

Duterte proposes another UN August 21, 2016 Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte railed against the United Nations today after it called for an end to the wave of killings unleashed by his war on drugs, saying he might leave the organisation. Duterte also said the Philippines will invite China and African nations to form another global organisation in place of United Nations, as world body is not doing enough to address hunger and terrorism. There appears to be human rights working for terrorist and mafia in third world to keep their states in dire state. Two UN human rights experts last week urged Manila to stop the extra-judicial executions and killings that have escalated since Duterte won the Presidency. About 900 suspected drug traffickers have been killed since he came to power after winning the election on May 9.
