Here are two interesting articles on some of the
impacts that the actions (and inaction) of rich countries on poor countries...
The first highlights
the threat that European fishing boats pose to African fish stocks, with competition for natural resources pushing up
prices,
extraction rates and the pressures on alternative
sources of protein, such as
bushmeat.
The second highlights the rich world's failure to deliver on long-standing promises in terms of
implementing fairer trade by
reducing subsidies to farmers in the US, EU and Japan and
opening up access to life-saving drugs at affordable prices.
