With the Oscar award ceremony completed, the information security industry rolls out its own red carpet for its annual celebrity event, the RSA Security Conference, next week. I've written before about the pervasive "buzz" topics I expect to hear about next week. Here are 5 subjects I'd like to discuss: 1. Security software architecture. Enterprise software is based on technologies like transaction processing, middleware, and web services that allow individual applications to integrate into an enterprise architecture. To gain scale and efficiency, the next-generation of security software must be built on a similar software architecture foundation. IBM, McAfee, and RSA Security get this. So does Tibco which is why it acquired LogLogic. Will any other vendors talk about security software architecture at RSA? 2. Analytics algorithms. I am convinced that the industry is moving to an information-based model featuring big data security analytics. That said, CISOs don't want to collect tens of terabytes of security data and then try to figure out what to do with it. The key to security analytics is a combination of stream processing, machine learning, statistical modeling, and nested algorithms. There is a lot of academic research in this area but little commercialization. Will vendors like Boeing/Narus, HP/ArcSight, SAIC, and Splunk get into this level of detail or hand out tee shirts instead? 3. Security visualization. Same thread as algorithms – security data visualization will move beyond pie charts and spreadsheets within the next few years. Oak Ridge and Pacific Northwest National Labs are doing a lot of work in this area. Will security vendors jump on the bandwagon? 4. The security skills shortage. I admit that I've done a lot of research around this topic so it is near-and-dear to me. Call me crazy but I believe this is a crucial issue that no one is talking about. I tried to do so myself by presenting my research at RSA but alas my proposal was rejected by the RSA mucky-mucks. I get it, this is not a sexy topic but an under-staffed, under-skilled cybersecurity workforce is as big a threat as anything. The bad guys are on the cutting-edge of cybersecurity offense while the defense lags further behind. 5. Hackers. This topic is better suited for Black Hat or Defcon but it should be an essential component of RSA as well. I expect cliché sound bytes describing how hacking is no longer the domain of adolescent whiz kids a la Matthew Broderick in WarGames (1983). Everyone gets this by now. What they don't get is who the hackers are, how they are organized, and why they do what they do. Trade shows are trade shows so you have to expect high-level conversations, marketing hype, and generous distribution of alcohol. I admit I enjoy the lighter side or RSA but I hope that the fun and frolic is balanced by serious discussions on an increasingly ominous subject.

On the verge of record win streak, Avs roll with Giguere
Dec 22, 2011, 3:54 PM EDT
The Colorado Avalanche are one win away from posting their longest single-season home winning streak since moving to Denver in 1995.
And they're going to try and get it with Jiggy in goal.
Yes, veteran netminder J.S. Giguere will get his fourth consecutive start tomorrow against Tampa. This is noteworthy for two reasons: One, Giguere's been playing inspired hockey as of late (1.62 GAA, .949 save percentage over the last three wins) and two, he's relegated Semyon Varlamov to backup status.
And that's noteworthy, because Avs GM Greg Sherman paid a small bounty for 23-year-old Russian netminder. It cost a unprotected first round pick (and a second-rounder in 2012 or 2013) to get him, then a three-year, $8.5 million deal to lock him up long-term.
While Varlamov's $2.8 million annual cap hit isn't huge, it's a $2 millon raise from what he was making in Washington. It's also double what Colorado is paying Giguere annually ($1.25 million) — and based on recent comments by head coach Joe Sacco, the team could have a goaltending controversy on its hands.
"Right now, it's not too much of decision because Giggy is playing so well," Sacco told the Denver Post. "We've won games, we're getting results."
Sacco's in a precarious spot. His team has rallied to get back to .500 (earlier this month they were 13-16-1) and within spitting distance of a playoff spot, so wins are at a premium. In that light, it makes sense to roll with Giguere — but that only further buries Varlamov, who's supposed to be Colorado's No. 1 guy.
- govtminion - Dec 22, 2011 at 4:11 PM
Much as with the Canucks a few weeks ago… if the backup is the one winning games, roll with him and pad the 'W' column while you can. I don't see why this is an issue, other than making Sherman look like a jackass for making that trade (well, MORE of a jackass).
- matty11kat - Dec 22, 2011 at 4:54 PM
Varly isn't 100% healthy, so that probably has something to do with that…
- capsrockva - Dec 22, 2011 at 7:42 PM
As I told you Avs fans back when the trade was made, What the F***k was your GM thinking when that happened. GM George Mc Phee stole from the Av's. This goalie (Varly) can't stay healthy. I told you that back in June/July when the trade happened. George is now looking like a genius for this steal.
- polegojim - Dec 23, 2011 at 9:53 AM
I want the Avs to do well… and this win streak is 'in spite' of poor coaching.
I'm tired of the Sacco Circus. The team flounders between win streaks and dumpster-diving losing streaks. Time for a Change.

India FDI inflows in services sector up 5%
Publication Date : 26-12-2012
India's foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows in the services sector increased by 5 per cent to US$3.6 billion during the April-October period of this fiscal, according to official data released yesterday.
The financial and non-financial services sector had attracted FDI worth $3.42 billion during the corresponding period last year. As far as overall FDI inflows are concerned, these declined by about 27 per during the first seven months of the current financial year to $14.78 billion, from $20.29 billion in the year-ago period.
In 2011-12, foreign investment in the services sector, which contributes more than 50 per cent in India's GDP, rose to $5.21 billion from $3.29 billion in 2010-11.
The other sectors which have received high level of FDI during the first seven months of the current fiscal include hotel and tourism ($3.11 billion), metallurgy ($1.21 billion), construction ($691 million) and automobiles ($743 million).
Countrywise, high levels of FDI came during the period from Mauritius ($6.75 billion), Japan ($1.52 billion), Singapore ($1.24 billion) the Netherlands ($1.05 billion) and the UK ($611 million), the department of industrial policy & promotion (DIPP) data showed.
The government is making sustained efforts, including involving stakeholders in policy formation, to make the investment regime more attractive and investor friendly, it said.
It has already allowed FDI in multi-brand retail sector besides hiking the cap to 100 per cent in the single brand retailing.
Foreign investments are considered crucial for India, which needs around $1 trillion in the next five years to overhaul its infrastructure sector such as ports, airports and highways to boost growth.
Decline in foreign investments could affect the country's balance of payments (BoP) situation and also impact the rupee.

Pro Yukon Solitaire v.1.0
Pro Yukon Solitaire is a free solitaire card game for the PC similar to Klondike (Microsoft) solitaire. The difference is all cards are dealt into 7 columns at the beginningn of the game. Pro Yukon Solitaire is more difficult than traditional Yukon Solitaire because more cards are initially dealt face down and can not be moved from one column to another until all the cards above them have been removed by either moving them to a different column, or to the foundations on the right of the game screen. The player wins when all 52 cards have been arranged in the foundations by suit and in order from Ace to King.

OCZ Technology Agility 3 240GB SSD ReviewOn the surface the OCZ Agility 3 has everything you want in an SSD, but a deeper look reveals a darker side.
I started testing the OCZ Technology Agility 3 a couple of weeks ago, but before writing it up took a few weeks to reflect on my findings. While away, I saw one of the greatest finishes ever at the Indy 500 unfold right in front of me and my wife and I welcomed a new addition in our hearts. Even with all of these events going on around me, the Agility 3 was on the back of my mind.
On the surface the OCZ Agility 3 looks like a great bargain, just like the Agility 2. You get a SandForce SF-2281 controller, the same used in the award winning Vertex 3 and the same great 3 year warranty. When the Vertex 2 and Agility 2 were launched over a year ago, the differences were in the programming and the Agility 2 was great value given that you got the same level of performance once the high IOPS burst of the Vertex 2 passed.
The differences between the Agility 3 and the Vertex 3 run deeper than just programming this round. The Vertex 3 uses synchronized flash, but the Agility 3 doesn't. Async flash isn't new, the Vertex 2 and Agility 2 both used async flash and it's been the standard for more than a year now. Today we'll see how IMFT async flash works with the SandForce SF-2281 controller and see if the OCZ Agility 3 is as good a bargain as the Agility 2 was last year.

Stella Del Mar residents scramble to save homes
Faced with the prospect of having their mobile home park sold to outsiders, and possibly razed for condos, the residents agree to buy it.
By LESTER R. DAILEY
Article published on
Wednesday, July 27, 2005
LARGO No matter who ends up owning the Stella Del Mar mobile home park, its current owner, Julius Szabo, will be the big winner.
Szabo has people competing with each other to pay him $26 million for the 50-acre park he bought for $16.2 million just two years ago and which is appraised at $10.7 million for tax purposes.
The 402-unit park, north of (Old) Walsingham Road, between Seminole Boulevard and 113th Street, was known as Island in the Sun from its inception, 27 years ago, until Szabo bought it.
Szabo recently received three unsolicited offers of $26 million each, two from mobile home operators and one from a California real estate investment trust, for the property.
State law requires the sellers of mobile home parks that have been advertised for sale to give the parks residents 45 days to match the highest offer and make the park resident-owned, as are a third of Pinellas Countys 290 mobile home parks. There was some doubt about whether the law would apply in this case, since the offers were unsolicited. But it didnt matter, because Szabo voluntarily offered the residents that option.
Were buying our park, said Betty Jamail, vice president of the parks homeowners association. Our park owner gave us the right of first refusal and weve got a signed agreement.
But coming up with the $7.8 million for the down payment, closing costs and operational reserve was no easy matter. Thirty percent of the homeowners are seasonal residents who were away for the summer. The parks closed circuit TV channel, bulletin boards and word of mouth spread the word that the residents would meet on July 19 to plan their strategy.
In the meantime, Jamail sought the help of Marty Pozgay, president of Florida Community Services Group, a statewide company that assists mobile home residents who want to buy their park.
He just guides us step by step through the process, Jamail said. Im just thrilled with the residents response. Theyve come through like troopers.
By the end of last week, more than 160 residents had pledged to pay the $49,000 cost of buying a share in the resident ownership group. Jamail expects that number to eventually reach 175 to 200.
If the deal falls through, the California investment trust has raised its offer to $27 million.
I strongly anticipate that we will be going forward and purchasing the park, Pozgay said Monday. Weve got enough (prospective buyers signed up to meet the minimum requirement) but were looking for more.
Residents who elect not to purchase a share can stay on as renters, paying their lot rent to the residents ownership group. But the rent is expected to increase from the current $422 a month.
Residents who buy a share will pay a $250 monthly maintenance fee. But repaying a $49,000 mortgage loan could add almost $500 a month to that.
Residents who decide to move could sell their homes, move them or abandon them. A state fund will pay displaced mobile home residents $3,000 to move a single-wide or $6,000 to move a double-wide. If the home is too old or dilapidated to move, the state will pay $1,375 for single-wides or $2,750 for double-wides.
There are several reasons why residents may opt not to buy, according to Pozgay. Some dont have the money. Others have the money but prefer to invest it elsewhere and pay rent. Still others say theyre too old to get a long-term mortgage, but Pozgay says that shouldnt bother them.
The banks cannot discriminate because of age, he said. Ive had 95-year-old people take out a 20-year loan.

Back in times when profanity and drug references were more rare in popular music, songwriters resorted to some pretty goofy measures to slip allusions to various substances into their lyrics.
We recently learned that Snoop Dogg has been sitting on some unreleased vocals from his late Doggbrother Nate Dogg, and now it appears that he's not the only former collaborator who's got some vocals in the vault.
Next week, Problem will drop off his follow up to Mollywood 2, which comes with a twist. It'll be split into two parts-- a "Side A" and "Side B," in his words-- which will arrive June 30th and July 2nd, respectively.
Last week, we reported that The Game had been charged with a felony for "making criminal threats" to an off-duty cop during an incident at a Pro-Am basketball game in March. Yesterday, he was arrested.
Earlier today, we got a couple of clips of The Game sending shots Young Thug's way during a show in New Orleans. Ever the troll, Thugger opts to respond to anger with glee (as he did when Lil Wayne urged people not to buy Barter 6).
Last July, L.A. rapper Joe Moses saw pretty big success with his free "street album" All Out, and now, he's ready to release a more official full-length. Brackin is out now, and you can stream it and check out the tracklist below, via Spotify.
L.A. native Bad Lucc has been waiting for this moment for a long time. Today his debut album, Off The Porch, has finally arrived.
Kendrick Lamar's new favorite rapper (AKA Earl Sweatshirt) just shared a project, I Don't Like Shit, I Don't Go Outside, last month, but today, he's giving us another ten minutes of new music.
Kendrick Lamar's "King Kunta" video is unquestionably one of the best of the year thus far, showing Kendrick in his natural environment while rapping one of the most powerful songs on To Pimp A Butterfly.
It's Wednesday, and it's after 3:54. That means it's time for a new Bad Lucc track, and this one's called "Humiliate." It's co-produced by Amp and Lucc's frequent partner-in-crime, Problem, and it's got a grimy, almost New York-style sound to it.
Over the past year or so, TDE label head Punch has been showing us his lyrical skills, picking up the mic and going in as a solo artist.
On May 12th, Snoop Dogg and Pharrell will link up to release their first joint album, BUSH.
With his new tape Nasty Dealer, MPA's Bricc Baby Shitro fully realizes his potential as an oddball trapper with eclectic ties to some powerful artists.
If you had the chance to catch Flying Lotus on his bonkers, afterlife-referencing 2014 "You're Dead!" tour, you' probably got the chance to hear some unreleased Kendrick Lamar vocals.
When it comes to posse cuts, few are doing it better than Hopsin's Funk Volume crew.
By any stretch of the imagination, Kendrick Lamar is now the biggest rapper in L.A. Fittingly, he's now been given a rite of passage by one of his city's baseball teams: the opportunity to throw out the first pitch at a game. The L.A.
Last year, L.A.-based producer Salva became a household name in hip-hop circles by scoring collabs with a diverse list of artists that included Schoolboy Q, Young Thug, Freddie Gibbs, A$AP Ferg, Kurupt, Problem and E-40.
OVO is quickly becoming way more than a label. The OVO clothing brand opened up its flagship store in Toronto late last year, and on Twitter today, they announced they would be debuting their first-ever pop-up store in the U.S.
Travi$ Scott and Young Thug are closing out their joint "Rodeo" tour in style. The wild duo pulled into L.A. last night (March 28), for the third-to-last show of the tour, and brought out two massive special guests: Chris Brown and Kanye West.
O.T. Genasis was arrested earlier this week (March 25), though not for what you might think. The "CoCo" rapper (and lover) was stopped in L.A.
Bad Lucc is definitely one to watch in 2015. We've known him as Problem's right-hand man in the past. They're both a part of Diamond Lane Music Group, and they have a joint album, Diamond Lane America, coming later this year.
Nipsey Hussle Reportedly Sold 60 Copies Of His $1000 Mixtape, "Mailbox Money" Jan 24, 2015 at 04:18pm
Nipsey Hussle, we have to hand it to you, you're a marketing genius. After the L.A.
Doja Cat is an R&B songstress from L.A. who's been churning out syrupy, sensual tunes for the past few years. Today, she makes her HNHH debut with a brief new track called "Golden."
In August, 19-year-old hellraiser Raven Felix dropped her mixtape Valifornia, which boasted some features from Snoop Dogg, Smoke DZA and Chevy Woods. After cementing her friendship with the Doggfather by appearing on his GGN webseries recently, the L.A.
Do you ever wonder how people in music videos are often able to drive cars at seemingly illegal speeds without getting caught? Well, it seems like Tyga was trying to do just that, but was thwarted by the police.
A few weeks ago, erstwhile Black Eyed Pea Fergie staged a comeback in the most 2014 way possible: by snagging a DJ Mustard beat for her single "L.A.
DUBB just popped up on a remix of TeeFlii's "24 Hours" with his East Coast homie Dave East, and now he's dropped a solo track to boot.
Though hip-hop artists are currently prone to using the phrase "it's gonna be a movie" when talking about their next project, Kendrick Lamar's semi-autobiographical good kid, m.A.A.d city was one of the few to actually fit that description, detailing a day i

Desirable 1876 Judd-1484 Half Eagle Pattern1876 $5 Five Dollar, Judd-1484, Pollock-1637, R.7, PR64 Red and Brown PCGS. Struck with regular issue half eagle dies, but in copper with a reeded edge. Such pieces are often referred to as die trials strikings, but Judd-1484 was more likely struck for sale to select dealers or collectors, as part of a denominational off-metal set. All of the 1876 silver and gold denomination coins were also struck in copper. The deep brick-red surfaces reveal pale blue and iridescent toning when rotated under a light. A well struck and carefully preserved specimen. This is the first time that we have handled this particular Judd variety since beginning our auction archives in 1993. (PCGS# 71806)

A chemical spill has shut down most of Charleston, West Virginia, closing schools and restaurants, leaving up to 300,000 residents without power and leading the federal government to declare a disaster - even as the extent of the danger remained unclear.
Health officials advised residents to use tap water only for flushing toilets and fighting fires and the company that runs the state's largest water treatment plant said it was unable to predict when the water would be safe again to drink.
Governor Earl Ray Tomblin declared a state of emergency for nine counties, and President Barack Obama issued an emergency declaration on Friday (local time)
The spill of 4-Methylcyclohexane Methanol, a chemical used in the coal industry, occurred on Thursday on the Elk River in Charleston, West Virginia's capital and largest city, upriver from the plant run by West Virginia American Water Co.
"We don't know that the water's not safe, but I can't say it is safe," Jeff McIntyre, president of West Virginia American Water, told a televised news conference.
Tests were being done on the water, McIntyre said, but he could offer no timeline for when water would be declared safe for normal use.
The chemical is not highly lethal, but since the company does not regularly see it as a contaminant, the level that could be considered safe has yet to be quantified, he added.
For now residents are being not to drink, bathe, cook or wash clothes with tap water.
Water carrying 4-Methylcyclohexane Methanol has an odor like licorice or anise, he said. A company spokeswoman said the chemical could be harmful if swallowed and could cause skin and eye irritation.
McIntyre said the spill originated at Freedom Industries, a Charleston company that produces specialty chemicals for the mining, steel and cement industries. A company spokesman did not respond to requests for comment.
Emergency workers and American Water distributed water to centers around the affected area. Local residents formed long lines at stores as shelves of bottled water quickly emptied.
"It's just ridiculous. There's nowhere to buy water and everywhere seems to be sold out. This isn't going to last two days," said Jaime Cook of Charleston, who was buying one of the last jugs of water at a Walmart store.
Tina May, a Charleston resident, even considered heading out of town for the weekend.
"I'm not sure how long I can last without a shower. This is unbearable," she said.
The Kanawha-Charleston and the Putnam County Health Departments ordered the closure of all restaurants and schools receiving water from the West Virginia American Water company.
Schools also were shut across many counties, including Boone, Cabell, Clay, Jackson, Kanawha, Lincoln, Pocahontas and Putnam.
The West Virginia Department of Environment Protection got a report of a strange odor on Thursday morning and visited the Freedom Industries site, where they found a leaking storage unit, a spokeswoman for Gov. Tomblin said.

Some mourn, but others celebrate death of 'traitor'
Friday 14 September 2007
The death of Sheikh Abu Risha, the charismatic, chain smoking young sheik, has had a huge impact in Iraq as well as the wider Arab world.
There was a sense of shock among many, especially the country's Sunni community. Ali Hatem al-Sulaiman, deputy chief of the province's biggest Sunni tribe, said that if "only one small boy remains alive in Anbar, we will not hand the province over to al-Qa'ida.
But messages were being posted on international jihadist websites exulting at the end of "the traitor and apostate". One called him "one of the biggest pigs of the Crusaders".
The killing took place on the first day of the holy month of Ramadan, and on the eve of the first anniversary of the founding of the Anbar Salvation Council, a tribal alliance led by the sheikh, which had been battling al-Qa'ida fighters in the western province with some success. Last night Anbar was under a state of emergency with the routes to Jordan and Syria closed down and US reinforcement on standby to be airlifted to the area.
The attack on the sheikh was followed by a car bombing in Baghdad, the first in the Iraqi capital for more than a week, killing four people and injuring 12 others, leading to fears of an escalation of violence during Ramadan, which has become the norm in Iraq.
According to Iraqi sources, Sheikh Abu Risha told associates he would spend Ramadan in Jordan, where the import export business run by his family had offices. This may have given his enemies an opportunity to plan the bombing.
According to the American military, violent incidents in Anbar have fallen in the last month. However Abu Risha and his tribal allies had survived several previous assassinations attempts. In June, a suicide bomber assassinated four Sunni sheikhs who were cooperating with Americans in Anbar, detonating an explosive belt as they gathered inside a large Baghdad hotel.
The following month a suicide truck bombing at Taji, north of Baghdad, again aimed at a meeting of Sunni tribal sheikhs who had agreed to oppose al-Qa'ida, killing five people and wounding 12 others.
One of the sheikh's principal bodyguards, Samir al-Nimrawi, is reported to have received a threat, purportedly from al-Qa'ida, that he would be killed "whatever the Americans try to do to protect him".
Abu Risha's critics accused him of corruption, sectarianism and using government money to run his own private army.

A worker has suffered caustic soda burns while cleaning out machines at the Whittaker's chocolate factory in Porirua.
A few litres of chemicals spilled on to his shoulder and arm while he was mixing them up tonight.
The worker was taken to Hutt Hospital, where he was in a stable condition in the emergency department, a hospital spokeswoman said.
''It caused stinging, burning feelings, which he knew he had to do something about pretty quickly,'' Porirua Fire Station senior station officer Dene Wade said.
''It was in a fairly concentrated form so it was fairly nasty stuff to have on his skin.''
A Wellington Free Ambulance spokeswoman said the man's injuries were ''potentially serious''.
Whittaker's staff helped him remove his clothes and got him into a shower until emergency services arrived.
He was taken to hospital by ambulance while fire services worked to contain and clean up the spill.
The Labour Department would be investigating the incident tomorrow, Mr Wade said.
A senior Whittaker's manager, who refused to be named, told The Dominion Post on the scene that there had been ''a very small accident and we're investigating''.

Time to step up — Backlund signs one-year deal with Flames
Jul 5, 2012, 5:30 PM EDT
Mikael Backlund will get a great chance to show his stuff next season. The 23-year-old Swedish center has signed a one-year, $725,000 deal with the Flames, the announcement coming in the wake of Olli Jokinen's departure for Winnipeg.
In a related story, next season might also be Backlund's last chance to prove his worth with the team that drafted him 24th overall in 2007.
"Mikael has an opportunity to step up and attempt to secure a top two-line center position with our club," said Flames GM Jay Feaster in a release. "He is a very talented player who skates well, has excellent vision and possesses a strong skill set. As we have discussed with him, Mikael needs to work on his consistency and his focus in order to break through in a top six role and start to define his role on our team. We are excited about the level of competition that should exist in camp this fall and we expect Mikael to be in the thick of those battles."
Backlund should receive ample playing time with wingers like Jarome Iginla, Jiri Hudler, Curtis Glencross and Alex Tanguay. Michael Cammalleri is a natural winger, though he may have to play center.
Backlund had a tough 2011-12 with just four goals and seven assists in 41 games. He missed the last two months of the season with an arm injury.

He's just never done anything offensively. My guess is he starts the season on the third line with Comeau and Glencross.

He has no confidence on the ice. The talent is there but he always seems scared to make a play as if he'll be sent to Abbotsford once he's off the ice. Maybe that was just Sutter, who knows.

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Return to Kuwait: The class of 1990
Jon Letman | 18 Dec 2013 23:05 GMT | Human Rights
In the struggle against environmental destruction and climate change, Greenpeace stands out for challenging powerful forces it sees as a threat. Last September, as it prepared to protest the first ever Arctic drilling for oil at the Prirazlomnaya platform, Greenpeace's icebreaker MV Arctic Sunrise was boarded by armed Russian security forces where it was forcibly towed to the Russian port of Murmansk.
There, the crew of 30 activists and journalists were detained and accused of piracy (later changed to "hooliganism"). The "Arctic 30" have since been released on bail but remain unable to leave Russia.
It was hardly the first time Greenpeace stood up for the rights of people fighting climate change and environmental degradation in the Arctic. In 2012, Greenpeace took an active role in calling for the reinstatement of the Russian Association of Indigenous Peoples of the North (RAIPON) after Russia's Ministry of Justice ordered it cease operations during a period of crackdowns on NGOs.
From the Arctic to the Amazon across the African continent and beyond, Greenpeace has proven itself one of the worlds most vocal and active organizations calling for human rights and climate justice. Greenpeace International's Executive Director Dr. Kumi Naidoo recently spoke with Al Jazeera English contributor Jon Letman by telephone from the Hague about the connection between climate change and human rights.
Dr. Naidoo's comments were edited for space and clarity.
Jon Letman for Al Jazeera English: What does climate change mean for human rights?
Kumi Naidoo: When I first started at Greenpeace I had to do a range of media interviews. I was quite taken aback when the first question was, "You've been actively involved in anti-poverty, gender equality and human rights work all your life, are you abandoning the causes for the climate struggle and the environment?" My response was: the struggle to avert catastrophic climate change and the struggles for human rights, poverty and gender equity are and should be seen as two sides of the same coin.
To put it in the words of Sharon Burrow(General Secretary of the International Trade Union Confederation) who speaks most eloquently on climate change, she told (UN Secretary-General) Ban Ki-moon, "You might be wondering why me, as a trade unionist, I'm speaking so passionately on climate change when my primary responsibility is defending and creating jobs." She said, "because I realize there are no jobs on a dead planet."
As somebody who grew up in the human rights struggle against apartheid, I saw, as my years of activism went by, that the climate realities were threatening certain fundamental assumptions we take about life on this planet. Good development initiatives around agriculture, rural development, food security and so on, were essentially being wiped out as a result of climate impacts.
Take sea level rise in Bangladesh where seawater has already contaminated the water table and is making it difficult to grow food in coastal regions. Or take the genocide in Darfur, that was driven by a mixture of water scarcity and land scarcity, which combine to give you the toxic mix of food scarcity that created the basis for identity manipulation by opportunistic political forces on both sides of the conflict. You end up with what the world mainly sees as just a quasi-religious-ethnic conflict when in fact, I am pretty certain that the Darfur conflict will be eventually understood as the first massive resource war that has been brought about as a result of climate impacts.
AJE: Which regions of the world are most impacted or most threatened by climate change?
Kumi Naidoo: There are some areas that are paying the first and most brutal price for climate impacts, no question about it. Sadly, it is parts of the world that carry the least responsibility for climate impacts and carbon emissions.
The regions that stand out for me are Southeast Asia because of typhoons and hurricanes which have reached velocities and ferocities - I mean, the recent typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) is one out of several, right? It is not as if that was an isolated case. We not only see an increase in the strength in hurricanes, we are also seeing the increase in frequency.
Then in Africa, the Sahel. Also we are seeing coastal regions taking a battering. We are seeing quite a lot of agriculture is being severely strained because people just can't predict when, you know, the level of certainty that farmers need for growing food is heavily impacted by climatic changes right now.
AJE: Could you talk about how climate change impacts indigenous peoples differently from those in industrialised societies?
Kumi Naidoo: Indigenous peoples, ironically, are the ones who have lived with the greatest respect for nature so it's terribly sad that indigenous peoples yet again pay a very high price for climate impacts in places like the Arctic or in the Amazon and so on.
The Arctic has four million indigenous people that live from Alaska to Canada to Greenland, the Nordic countries and Russia. Already the burning of fossil fuels has impacted on the ice levels. Last year we had the lowest ever recorded minimum ice level in the Arctic and we are seeing that the melting of the Arctic sea ice brought about by the burning of fossil fuels itself is now being used as an excuse to go and further look for fossil fuels in the place where the ice is melting.
Actually, Gazprom spills annually as much oil in its Arctic onshore projects at the moment than what it would get out of the rig in that Arctic ocean that we have been demonstrating. So if they could get their act together, fix their pipes, get serious about reducing spills, they would not even have to have this project in the Arctic Ocean because the amount of oil they are already spilling and losing is more than what would be pulled out of the Prirazlomnaya rig.
AJE: Do you expect more cases like the Arctic 30 in the coming months and years or is this an isolated case?
Kumi Naidoo: A lot depends on whether our political leaders are willing to wake up and recognize that we are desperately running out of time and that the longer they drag their feet, the more costly it's going to be in terms of people, lives lost, infrastructure, economies destabilized and actual money.
Right now we are in a window where we can turn the crisis of climate change into an opportunity by pushing for an energy revolution on the scale of the industrial revolution, which could create a serious jobs bonanza and can give us a double win for the economy, jobs and climate. If our leaders come to their senses we would love to work cooperatively and share our scientific knowledge to help make that transition…But if they continue to serve the short term interests of their bosses in the oil, coal and gas sectors, if they allow energy policy to continue to be written by those industry lobbyists and interests, then we have no moral or ethical choice but to intensify civil disobedience like the one that you have seen recently.
AJE: What kind of cooperation exists between Greenpeace and organizations like Human Rights Watch or Amnesty International?
Kumi Naidoo: Greenpeace and Amnesty work very closely, like right now, obviously there's a human rights issue. Amnesty and Human Rights Watch as well as other groups are also supporters. But on the issue of climate change, we have been working with Amnesty Amnesty has been part of the global campaign for climate action.
If you take [Sharan Burrow's quote] "there are no decent jobs on a dead planet" and extrapolate it into human rights, then there are no human rights on a dead planet either because there are no humans. So in that sense, climate change is more and more on the radar of rights groups, particularly in the developing world don't have a choice because climate change, even if you don't want to engage it, it will engage you.
AJE: Do you think the connection between climate change and human rights is clear enough among people in Western or industrialized nations? Do you think people understand it or do you think they don't see a connection?
Kumi Naidoo: I think more and more people are beginning to see it but not nearly in sufficient numbers yet. I hope they will see it soon before it gets too late. I don't blame personally the average citizen in the US or any other developed country because they are on the receiving end of the most well resourced lobby that has humongous amounts of money. For every member of Congress, the oil, coal and gas lobbies fund a minimum of three and a maximum of eight full time lobbyists so that no climate legislation goes through.
We have to bear in mind, and I think especially in the US people need to understand, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the biggest scientific initiative that we've had on this planet ever, right. Secondly, they need to understand it's a conservative body. It's made up of every government and their scientific representatives. So the assessment that the IPCC gives is, by its nature, always the more conservative assessment, not the scariest assessments. But even this conservative assessment just given now, says very clearly that we are running out of time, that we have to act with urgency and that between 60 to 80 percent of known fossil reservesneed to stay where they are if we are to stand a chance to avert catastrophic climate change.
But if you take that concept of economic rights, basic socio-economic rights that are denied to a lot of people in the world because of what you can call a 'lottery of geography,' you know, where you are born fundamentally it prescribes what your life chances are. People are starting from different starting points and when you bring climate into it, it kind of takes things to very different level.
What complicates matters is, in fact, also the growing levels of consumption in the developing world. The elites in the developing world have the same obscene levels of consumption like the super elites of the developed world, in fact in some cases it can be worse.
AJE: During COP19 climate talks in Warsaw Kevin Anderson and Alice Bows-Larkin talked about using the train to get to Warsaw from the UK and how they hadn't flown in eight years. Giving up flying is the kind of thing that a lot of people might not consider but they were saying it's something that has to be done, saying we can't have people flying and even taking showers daily and things like this. They were calling for some extreme measures.
Kumi Naidoo: Listen, the situation we are facing right now is extremely extreme. Let's be blunt about it, right? What is today being labeled "extreme measures," if we don't act now, even lots of things that we take for granted, like clean running water - but bear in mind almost 1.5 billion people in the world don't have access to that. People like myself have been saying for more than a decade now sadly, if we don't address the issues of conflict equity, climate change and poverty on the planet, the future wars will not be fought about oil but will be fought about water.
You have got to look everything that helps brings down carbon and brings down the harm and so yes, reducing air travel, reducing water consumption, food consumption that contributes to high emissions, thinking about how far your food travels to get to your plate, thinking about what you eat, limiting meat intake… So in that sense I don't see any of these ideas as extreme. I see the situation that we find ourselves in is extremely scary. Go speak to the people in the Philippines.
I don't think those ideas are outlandish or should be dismissed. I think those are ideas that will be part of an overall solution ultimately.
AJE: Last question. You and others have expressed extreme disappointment with the results of COP19 in Warsaw. When you talk to activists and people who care, especially young people who may throw their arms up in despair, what do you tell them?
Kumi Naidoo: I tell them the struggle for justice has always been a marathon, not a sprint. People have to have perseverance. Also I tell them the struggle for justice has never been a popularity contest.
People will vilify us, call us alarmist, but bear in mind the movements and the leaders of those movements that we celebrate the most, whether its Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks, Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, were all called hooligans and worse and were all vilified when they were persecuting the struggle. If you are serious about making a difference, don't be afraid of criticism.
I also quote Mahatma Gandhi who once said, "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you and then you win." The reality is they're not ignoring us, they're not laughing at us, they are fighting us and let's hope, if Gandhi's right - if they're fighting us - then we are just one step away from winning.
"If you say that human rights is a right to life, then climate change has to quintessentially be seen as a human rights issue," Kumi Naidoo has said.
"Increasing conflict brought about by climate impacts is going to create high levels of insecurity for many, many people around the world."
