#ethics #internationalaffairs #podcastFrom Another Angle: Accidents, with Jessie SingerCarnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs2023-06-13 | In this episode host Hilary Sutcliffe explores . . . accidents from another angle. There is one thing we thought we knew about accidents, that they are accidental, no-one's fault, simply the result of human error. But author and journalist Jessie Singer’s in her compelling book "There Are No Accidents" shows that whilst one person dies by accident in the United States alone every three minutes these deaths are in fact far from accidental. The majority are not random acts of God but are the predictable and preventable if only money and power were not prioritized at the expense of ordinary people.

Solar radiation modification may one day be needed to reduce climate risks, but great uncertainties remain, and more research and inclusive governance is needed to assess it, says Maarten Van Aalst, during a "C2GTalk." That requires discussions at all levels with people from a range of political and ethical backgrounds, in ways which respect different perspectives.
Van Aalst is director general and chief science officer at the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI), having assumed that role on February 1, 2023. Before that, and at the time of this recording, he was director of the International Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre, the reference center on climate risk management for the international Red Cross Red Crescent movement. Van Aalst is also coordinating lead author for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC WGII) and member of the European Advisory Board on Climate Change under the European Climate Law.

Nonetheless, it will be crucial to put justice at the heart of these considerations, by ensuring balanced participation of peoples, rooted in science, and in a spirit of redressing past injustice.
Kumi Naidoo is a South African human rights and climate justice activist. As a 15-year old, he organized school boycotts against the Apartheid educational system in South Africa. Naidoo was later part of the leadership that sought to establish the African National Congress (ANC) as a political party and he then served as the official spokesperson of the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC), the overseer of the country's first democratic elections in April 1994. He was previously secretary-general of Amnesty International, international executive director of Greenpeace International, and has led several other organizations, including the South African National NGO Coalition (SANGOCO), CIVICUS: World Alliance for Citizen Participation, and Africans Rising for Justice, Peace and Dignity.

#ethics #internationalaffairs #foreignpolicy #taiwan #microchipFrom Another Angle: Regulation, with Christopher HodgesCarnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs2023-05-02 | In this episode, host Hilary Sutcliffe explores . . . regulation from another angle. The basis of most regulation and criminal justice is the concept that instilling fear of consequences, such as fines, sanctions, and jail is the best way to deter future misbehavior in companies and individuals. Her guest this week Chris Hodges OBE, emeritus professor of justice systems at the University of Oxford and a legal scientist and former regulator, explores the extensive research which shows that in reality this is not true and why it often does the opposite increasing the chances of further bad conduct.
He explains that our better understanding of human nature shows that the learning is more important than the sanction and how an approach called “outcome-based cooperative regulation” holds much promise for a more effective way to achieve the purposes of regulation with better outcomes for individuals, companies, and society.

While solar radiation modification is not currently feasible, more research is needed.
Jo Tyndall is director of the Environment Directorate at the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) where she oversees the implementation of the Directorate’s program of work, covering a broad range of environmental issues, including: green growth, climate change, biodiversity, quality of ecosystems, eco-innovation, circular economy, and resource productivity.

How can civil society alliances promote new narratives that close the global gender gap?
