What Next Special Reports
There are two longer What Next special reports
in preparation.
Carbon Trade: A Critical Discussion on Climate Change, Privatisation and Power
The first report focuses on carbon trading, which is currently pursued as the major approach to tackling climate change. It analyses the problems arising from the emerging global carbon market pertaining to the environment, social justice and human rights, and investigates new climate mitigation alternatives. The report, moreover, serves as a case study in which a number of the problems discussed within the What Next project come together, as well as a platform for the consolidation of a movement for climate justice. more
Breaking Waves: Technology Tsunamis, Globalisation and Dismemberment (forthcoming)
The second special report examines modern society’s deep-seated reliance on technology to tackle social problems. It explores how ‘technology waves’ have been created historically and whose interests they have served. The report also looks at government’s and industry’s strategies for technological convergence in the decades ahead and the implications of emergent technologies for the planet and its people.
