SCP– the building blocks for a Greener Economy.

My favourite part of the UNCSD (apart from the Major Group of Children and Youth's lobbying and coordinating a hardcore policy team) was side events. Among my favorite ones were a series held on the Green Economy by the Nordic Council of Ministers
 



We all know that the concept of a Green Economy needs a pragmatic approach with feasible instruments for countries striving for a path towards low-carbon, small-footprint societies. A necessary part of this is the contribution that sustainable consumption and production patterns, models, programmes and strategies can make in both the developed and developing world.The first in the series dealt with this in a clear, concise and hard hitting manner. The speakers were informative, intelligent and I learnt a lot. You can watch it for yourself (above or below)
