The C-SERMS Baseline Report and Assessment aims to serve as a key planning tool to tackle existing barriers and communicate priorities that would allow for a swift transition toward sustainable energy systems in CARICOM member countries.
Suggested Priority Initiatives, Policies, Projects, and Activities range from coordinated regional fuel efficiency standards to targeted model legislation on net metering and from development of regional generation technology risk mitigation funds to country specific electric system modelling efforts. The report thereby distinguishes between actions to be taken at the regional and those at the national level, and those to be taken at both. The study also highlights three broader priority areas for future action: transportation, regional energy trade agreements, and the water-energy-food nexus.

Overall, Latin America and the Caribbean has traditionally been a world leader in the use of renewable energy sources for power generation (mainly hydro power), with important sub-regional differences, but the use of fossil fuels grew rapidly in the late 1900s.
There have been many initiatives on renewables and energy efficiency on the part of governments and local organizations, supported by multilateral development banks, UN organizations, international NGOs.
The recent development of non-traditional renewable energies (wind, solar, geothermal, modern biomass) is helping meet important development goals (growth, access, affordability) with a lower impact on greenhouse gas emissions.
There are still important challenges related to investment climate and business model financing, but there are many lessons to share, both on what works and what doesn´t work.

Prepared and presented By Racheal Nalule -Program officer,
Environmental Alert, during the 2nd Uganda Water and
Environment Week (UWEWK) Conference at WRI-MWE,
Entebbe (18th –22ndMarch, 2019)
The idea of strengthening CSOs and Networks coordination and reporting
mechanisms stemmed from the realization of the underlying key challenges
limiting sustainable access and utilization of renewable energy at both national
and sub-national levels. These include:
Weak coordination among CSOs and networks in the renewable energy sub-sector;
Inadequate capacity (both technical and financial) of CSOs and networks to effectively
engage in policy dialogue regarding sustainable and renewable energy development
at national, sub-national and local level is;
Absence of a strong civil society voice and convening power to ably hold government
and renewable energy industry players accountable for decisions and practices
towards sustainable and renewable energy delivery.
Limited access to policy and decision making space by the renewable energy CSOs
and networks to engage and contribute
Advancing Civil Society Organisations and Networks coordination for contribut...Dr. Joshua Zake
A presentation made during the 2nd Uganda Water and Environment Week held in Entebbe, Uganda. It highlights the process the civil society and networks in Renewable Energy have pursued to establish enhanced coordination mechanisms for structured and continuous policy engagements at the national, sub-regional and local level for influencing decisions and policy implementation targeted at universal access to clean energy through promotion of renewable energy. It also discusses the key subsequent actions required to enable delivery of this moving forward based on the roles and responsibilities of the civil society as stipulated in the constitution and other sectoral policies and laws in the environment, natural resources and energy in Uganda.

Water is critical for meeting commitments of the Paris Agreement and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Our economies rely on water, with recent estimates putting the economic value of water and freshwater ecosystems at USD 58 trillion - equivalent to 60% of global GDP. At the same time, water related risks are increasing in frequency and scale in the context of climate change.
How are investments shaping our economies and societies exposure to water risk? What role can the financial system play in supporting water security? And how can increased understanding of how finance both impacts and depends on water resources spur action towards greater water security?
This OECD Green Talks LIVE on Tuesday 14 May 2024 from 15:00 to 16:00 CEST discussed the evolving landscape for assessing water risks to the financial system.
OECD Policy Analyst Lylah Davies presented key findings and recommendations from recent OECD work on assessing the financial materiality of water-related risks, including the recently published paper “Watered down? Investigating the financial materiality of water-related risks” and was joined by experts to discuss relevant initiatives underway.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
Diabetes is a rapidly and serious health problem in Pakistan. This chronic condition is associated with serious long-term complications, including higher risk of heart disease and stroke. Aggressive treatment of hypertension and hyperlipideamia can result in a substantial reduction in cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes 1. Consequently pharmacist-led diabetes cardiovascular risk (DCVR) clinics have been established in both primary and secondary care sites in NHS Lothian during the past five years. An audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery at the clinics was conducted in order to evaluate practice and to standardize the pharmacists’ documentation of outcomes. Pharmaceutical care issues (PCI) and patient details were collected both prospectively and retrospectively from three DCVR clinics. The PCI`s were categorized according to a triangularised system consisting of multiple categories. These were ‘checks’, ‘changes’ (‘change in drug therapy process’ and ‘change in drug therapy’), ‘drug therapy problems’ and ‘quality assurance descriptors’ (‘timer perspective’ and ‘degree of change’). A verified medication assessment tool (MAT) for patients with chronic cardiovascular disease was applied to the patients from one of the clinics. The tool was used to quantify PCI`s and pharmacist actions that were centered on implementing or enforcing clinical guideline standards. A database was developed to be used as an assessment tool and to standardize the documentation of achievement of outcomes. Feedback on the audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery and the database was received from the DCVR clinic pharmacist at a focus group meeting.
"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
