.ra&start=44:42.7">“SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IS DEAD”: EARTH SUMMIT DRAWS
TO A CLOSE IN
>JOHANNESBURG</A> I’m looking at a piece posted on the CorpWatch website. It
says:
>“Sustainable Development is dead. It’s demise came, ironically, at the
World
>Summit on Sustainable Development. “It’s not that the phrase wasn’t
invoked.
>It was, ad nauseum. But it was hardly discussed. “Instead, sustainable
>development was deemed to be whatever compromise governments happen to reach
>on trade, subsidies, investment and aid, and whatever projects corporations
>see fit to finance. “’Sustainable Development’ is now officially
meaningless.
>” Again, those are the words of Kenny Bruno in a piece he wrote for the
>organization, CorpWatch. Around this time last year, the US had just pulled
>out of the UN World Conference on Racism in Durban, South Africa. Now, the UN
>Earth Summit in Johannesburg, South Africa has drawn to a close among
>allegations that the US blocked just about every meaningful action on the
>agenda. Well, as we wrap up with our coverage of the Earth Summit, we’re
>joined right now in the firehouse by Kenny Bruno. Guest:
>Kenny Bruno, activist with Corpwatch and founder of the Greenwash Academy
>Awards. He is also co-author with Joshua Karliner of the book ‘
>Earthsummit.biz: The Corporate Takeover of Sustainable Development,’ which
>investigates how corporations, in partnership with the United Nations,
>champion environmental sustainability and human rights while hiding their
>polluting and exploitative practices with sophisticated PR campaigns touting
>concern for a sustainable future. Contact:
