biologiques/ biological resources et ressources énergétiques/energy . 0 commentaire abo comment: « the big news this month is that abo’s efforts to secure new funding and regulatory support for supplying carbon dioxide to industrial algae cultivation operations is beginning to pay off. last week marked a significant victory for abo’s efforts to raise the profile of algae’s ability to consume carbon dioxide and help fight climate change: u.s. senators joe manchin (d-wv) and heidi heitkamp (d-nd) introduced legislation to prioritize research and development of carbon utilization technologies at the u.s. department of energy’s fossil energy program. it’s hard to believe that just a year ago carbon utilization wasn’t on the mind of most sitting u.s. senators, but thanks to the efforts of abo members we have found a number of allies on capitol hill that recognize the enormous advantage that comes with the ability to convert co2 emissions into valuable products. with their help we can accelerate the day algae become a source of renewable fuels, chemicals, food and feed products – all while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. « internet community for deep sea mineral resources publié le 27 mai, 2015 dans coopération internationale , economie générale/ economy et ressources minérales/ mining . 0 commentaire apia, samoa – the secretariat of the pacific community (spc) and the european union will establish a community of practice for pacific islands’ policy officers and legislative drafters involved in deep sea minerals. the new initiative is a key outcome of an intensive regional training workshop on deep sea minerals policy formulation and legislative drafting hosted by the government of samoa and organised with spc in apia last week. the virtual community of practitioners will usefully exchange practices, experiences, questions and challenges with regards to the development and implementation of their deep sea mineral policies and legislation. the director of spc’s geoscience division, professor mike petterson, said the initiative will enable policy officers and legislative drafters to share and discuss the future development of deep sea mineral regulatory frameworks, including the strengths and weaknesses in existing deep sea mineral policies and legislation, and to grasp whether there is a need for further development and changes. “additionally it will ensure that there’s a better understanding of the needs and priorities of the pacific region as a whole, as well as the ability to identify possible areas of regional cooperation and information sharing for deep sea mineral activities,” prof petterson said. the new virtual community will be facilitated through a blog or portal managed by spc as part of its european union-funded deep sea minerals project. “the community of practice proposed within the project will enhance the governance of deep sea minerals in the region,” the ambassador of the european union for the pacific, andrew jacobs, said. ”it is another effort to ensure that deep sea minerals in the pacific are managed sustainably and we are supportive of such efforts.” initiated in 2011, the project has been assisting pacific island countries in accessing all available information and for those who wish to engage in deep sea mineral activities, by supporting informed governance in accordance with international law, with particular attention to the protection of the marine environment and securing equitable financial arrangements for the benefit of pacific people. as one of its key result areas, the project aims to assist pacific island countries in the formulation of national policy, legislation and regulations to ensure the responsible governance and careful management of deep sea mineral resources. the workshop in apia, samoa, was attended by 70 participants from 13 pacific island countries. algae biomass summit due in washington, 30th of september publié le 25 mai,

on deep sea minerals publié le 19 mai, 2015 dans economie générale/ economy , géostratégie , protection de l'environnement/ environment , ressources minérales/ mining et terres rares/ rare earths . 0 commentaire tags : deep sea mining , pacific countries , spc . apia, samoa –the government of samoa is this week hosting a regional workshop on deep sea minerals policy and legislative drafting organised with the secretariat of the pacific community (spc). funded by the european union, the training workshop is bringing together 60 government representatives from 13 pacific island countries to improve their understanding of the international legal regime for deep sea minerals activities and their policy formulation and legislative drafting skills. as global interest in deep sea minerals increases, particularly in the pacific region, effective policy and legal development are seen as vital to ensure that any deep sea mineral activities are conducted and managed in compliance with international standards and best environmental practices. the three major deep sea mineral deposits that are attracting commercial interest include seafloor massive sulphides (which contain high concentrations of metals such as copper, gold, silver, zinc and lead), manganese nodules and cobalt-rich crusts. all three mineral deposits occur in the exclusive economic zones of many pacific island countries and are increasingly being recognised as a potential source of revenue and economic development. « the samoa government is privileged to host this regional workshop that is aimed to elevate the standard of deep sea minerals policy and legislative development and would like to thank spc and the european union for their continuous support provided to our country as we learn more about this emerging area,” the government of samoa’s assistant attorney general,loretta teueli, said. few countries in the world have taken the vital legal steps to ensure that regulatory frameworks are in place to regulate and monitor deep sea minerals activities, so the pacific is leading the way, according to spc’s deep sea minerals project manager, akuila tawake. “this workshop is aligned with one of the strategic objectives of the deep sea minerals project which is to prepare pacific island countries wanting to engage in deep sea mining activities to effectively regulate and manage the activities carried out under their responsibility,” mr tawake said. the intensive workshop is taking place from 18 to 22 may in apia as part of the spc-european union deep sea minerals project: http://gsd.spc.int/dsm/ . the project involves 13 pacific community members who are part of the africa-caribbean-pacific (acp) grouping. nautilus minerals starts research in the salomon publié le 7 avril, 2015 dans coopération internationale , economie générale/ economy et ressources minérales/ mining . 0 commentaire t oronto ontario, april 07, 2015 – nautilus minerals inc. (tsx:nus, otcqx: nusmf) (the « company » or « nautilus ») announces it has signed a contract with gardline cgg pte ltd (« gardline cgg ») to provide exploration services for nautilus’ 2015 program in the solomon islands. the vessel mv duke will be used to generate targets to expand nautilus’ seafloor massive sulphide (« sms ») prospect inventory within its 100% owned solomon islands exploration licenses. the contract with gardline cgg is for 43 days of services, mobilising from brisbane, australia on or about april 25, 2015. the program will define sms targets using efficient multibeam echo sounder and plume hunting techniques. plume hunting is a regional geochemical technique involving the discovery of metal rich plumes of material that are ejected into the water column from prospective areas, by natural geological processes. the primary objective of this program is to discover further mineralised systems to support the company’s business model. amongst its many anticipated advantages, seafloor resource production will allow the aggregation of resources from multiple mineralised systems without the need for significant additional capital. the mv duke vessel, which will be used for this program is a 67 metre long, 2031 gross tonne, survey vessel, originally built in 1983, and then extensively refitted in 1998 by a/s vaagen vert, norway. the vessel is equipped with a hull mounted kongsberg em302 multibeam system, a state of the art seafloor mapping system that provides some of the highest quality seafloor mapping data available. potatoes to be grown in larger quantities in pacific islands publié le 31 mars, 2015 dans coopération internationale , economie générale/ economy et ressources biologiques/ biological resources . 0 commentaire suva, fji – almost 70 new varieties of potato and sweet potato will soon be available to pacific island countries and territories, to improve food security across the region. the secretariat of the pacific community’s (spc’s) centre for pacific crops and trees (cepact), based in suva, fiji, has received 42 new potato varieties as tissue cultures that are sub-tropical, heat-tolerant and resistant to some potato viruses. potato is becoming one of the most consumed crops in the pacific islands region, with some countries and territories beginning to grow potatoes, while fiji imports fjd 17 million of potatoes ever year. the new potato varieties originate from peru, while the sweet potato tissue cultures are also mainly from peru, as well as argentina, bolivia and ecuador. accessing new, adaptable and resilient hybrids will assist countries and territories with import substitution to improve food security. “the centre also received tissue cultures of 27 advanced hybrid sweet potato varieties, all of which have orange and purple flesh that is high in nutrients to help improve diets in pacific communities,” spc genetic resources coordinator, valerie tuia, said. “the fast-growing and early-maturing sweet potato varieties are an ideal crop in disaster rehabilitation efforts and food security programmes, although we’re currently preparing other varieties for anticipated distribution in the coming weeks to areas impacted by cyclone pam,” she said. in cook islands, niue and samoa these orange and purple varieties are very popular for the tourist market and they will support smallholder farmers supplying this market. potatoa growing demand by pacific countries and territories for disease-resistant and nutrient-rich crop diversity, that is suitable for a tropical climate, prompted cepact to continue sourcing new, improved varieties from its partners in the consultative group of international agriculture centres (cgiar). reforest fiji publié le 31 mars, 2015 dans
