NEW DELHI -- Increasingly aware of the scope of plastic pollution, governments in more than 60 countries have introduced levies and bans to combat single-use plastic waste, according to U.N. Environment, an agency of the United Nations. A growing number of governments are taking action and demonstrating that all nations, whether rich or poor, can become global environmental leaders, Erik Solheim, the nike dunk agency s head, said in a report released Tuesday about sustainable solutions to single-us yeezy e plastics.With its release timed for U.N. World Environment Day, the report noted that rules limiting the use of plastic bags had decreased their use in places such as Morocco, Rwanda and parts of China, sometimes significantly. Rwanda, a pioneer in banning single-use plastic bags, is now one of the cleanest nations on earth, Solheim said in the report.But elsewhere, things haven t gone so well. Poor follow-through has left many such bans ineffective. In New Delhi, for instance, a ban on disposable plastics has had only limited impact because of poor enforcement, the report said. The city has tried repeatedly over the past decade to ban adidas originals ultraboost the use of thin plastic bags, most recently announcing a heavy fine for rule-breakers. But the bags remain ubiquitous across the city, blowing in the wind, piled in ditches and readily offered in hundreds of thousands of shops.Almost 20 pounds of plastic found in dead whale s stomachElsewhere in India, including the states of Sikkim and Himachal Pr Bkfy G-20 summit in Turkey dominated by ISIS talk
After three years of wrangling, the United States and Vietnam announced Sunday they ha stanley cups ve reached agreement in principle on a trade pact.The tentative plan, which still requires approval by the U.S. Congress and Vietnam s National Assembly, is considered the last major step in normalizing relations stanley canada in the wake of the Vietnam War that ended more than 24 years ago.It also could pave the way for Vietnam, one of the world s poorest nations, to join the World Trade Organization. We in the U.S. believe this agreement will assist in the transformation and modernization of Vietnam, Deputy U.S. Trade Representative Richard Fischer told reporters.Vietnam began opening its markets in the mid-1980s with the Doi Moi restructuring process but has been hit hard by the fallout from the Asian financial crisis. The pace of reforms has slowed to a crawl over the last two years, and the government has been under growing pressure to speed them up, particularly in restructuring the debt-ridden banking system and improvi stanley cup ng competitiveness of loss-making state-owned enterprises.With declines in foreign investment and exports and a rise in unemployment, the government is eager for the hundreds of millions of dollars the deal is expected to infuse into the economy.Work began in 1996 on the bilateral trade pact that would give Normal Trading Status, formally known as Most Favored Nation Status, to Vietnam.

As is the case with much Middle East news, the official reason is being widely brushed aside as the real reason for this event. According to The New York Times, Khanfar wrote on his Twitter feed: Entertained by all the rumors of why I have resigned. Much of the speculation for Khanfar s resignation revolves around Al Jazeera s coverage of the Arab Spring.

Britain s Court of Appeal has upheld a ruling that the government must disclose secret intelligence about the treatment of a former Guantanamo Bay detainee who says he was tortured in U.S. custody.Judges on Wednesday rejected the government s claim that revealing the information would damage U.S.-British intelligence cooperation.In October, the High Court ordered officials to make public a secret seven stanley cup -paragraph summary of U.S. intelligence files describing the treatment of British resident Binyam Mohamed. The Foreign Office appealed that ruling.The British government released a statement following the ruling essentially claiming victory in the two year court battle, saying that if the information contained in the summary hadn t already been made public, the court would have ruled differently.According to the intelligence summary, which has been reported in the U.S., Mohamed was subjec stanley mugs ted to harsh interrogation techniques including sleep deprivation and threats soon after his arrest on behalf of American authorities. That treatm stanley flasche ent, if carried out with the knowledge of British officials, would have violated Britain s anti-torture agreements.Ethiopia-born Mohamed was arrested in Pakistan in 2002 and says he was tortured there and in Morocco before being flown to Guantanamo Bay.
