Panhandling at the Parthenon (LINK)

December 7th 2007 15:19
Team searches for cause of homelessness in Tennesse's State Capital

United States of America (Press Release) December 3, 2007 -- Street People will be panhandling this week outside the Parthenon, Ryman Auditorium and the nightclubs of Nashville’s live music scene and representatives from Street-people.com will be there to document the experience. Nashville and it’s diverse array of bums, panhandlers, hustlers, and street people will be the focus of a visit by Street-people.com. The unorthodox website features satirical stories about street people in various cities across the country. Street-people.com’s “Street team” will be in Nashville December 5 & 6, 2007 walking the streets, back alleys and tourist attractions of Nashville talking and taking pictures with the people who make their living on the street hustling change off tourist, collecting beer cans behind bars to earn money from recycling, or digging in the trashcans of local downtown restaurants for food. The interviews and photos will then be featured on the website where thousands of visitors daily enjoy the site’s offbeat take on those that are homeless.

“Our road trips have become very popular with our readers” commented one of the founders. The street team has visited various cities including Boston, New Orleans, New York, and Hartford. “This will be our second tour of Nashville. Our first tour generated several unique stories and fans have asked us to follow up.” The website was created by two downtown office workers in Memphis, TN has developed a strange collection of followers. College students hosted the creators during a football game where the students held a Bum Olympics inspired by the site, sorority girls hoisted banners for the site on Good Morning America, and the creators have been offer monthly columns by magazines in Dallas and Memphis.

“I think it is that we go beyond just getting pictures of the street people. We get stories behind that request for a dolla.” added the creators. “Being panhandled is something everyone that lives in a city understands. Our site is an outlet for that part of our culture showing that some people really need aid and others are just scam artist.” Under the banner of The Online Home for the Homeless, without the urine smell, the site questions whether the disheveled individuals who ask us for change are really in need or just scam artists.

The site features a gallery of homeless people complete with photos and stories from “The Iceman” who peddles his bike 50 miles a day to collect cans because Top 40 radio made him quit his job, to “Wheelchair Will” who uses a wheelchair as a prop to garner sympathy and handfuls of change from passersby. The site has come under fire from charitable organizations as insensitive to the homeless. “We feel the site uses satire to talk about this social phenomenon and we plan to have an interesting visit. Our Nashville fans have already shared some characters that we will be on the lookout for when our team arrives for the visit this week.”

Government of Mozambique gathers national stakeholders to discuss sustainable development of biofuel

On 5th and 6th December 2007, the Government of Mozambique, represented by the Ministries of Agriculture and Energy, will bring together stakeholders for a workshop on sustainable biofuel production.

Mozambique, People's Republic of (Press Release) December 3, 2007 -- PRESS RELEASE – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Maputo, 3 December 2007,
Government of Mozambique gathers national stakeholders to discuss sustainable development of biofuels in Mozambique

On 5th and 6th December 2007, the Government of Mozambique, represented by the Ministries of Agriculture and Energy, will bring together national stakeholders for a workshop on sustainable production of biofuels in Mozambique. The workshop is a response to the European Commission (EC) request for submission of Mozambican comments on the EC proposed sustainability criteria. The workshop will include key contributions from European representatives, national policy makers, private sector, civil society, as well as biofuel producers. The aim of the event is for government officials and national stakeholders to jointly discuss the possible impact on Mozambique of the European proposed sustainability criteria for biofuels. The workshop and its discussions will also serve as technical input for policy makers in drafting a Mozambican policy framework for biofuels in 2008.

In January 2007, the European Commission elaborated proposals for a new Energy Policy for Europe. The renewable energy roadmap included in this policy proposed a binding 10% target for the share of biofuels in petrol and diesel in each European Member State in 2020, to be accompanied by the introduction of a sustainability scheme for biofuels. The impact of the sustainability scheme is expected to be wide-ranging as it includes all biofuels produced in, or imported by, the European Union.

Mozambique has been identified as a promising biofuels producer, with capacity to produce biofuels for both the national, regional and international market without endangering food security for its population. The Mozambican Government wants to ensure that the establishment of a biofuels industry in Mozambique is carried out in a responsible and sustainable manner.

The European sustainability scheme has potentially significant implications for Mozambique as the EU market has been identified as a key market for the sale of both ethanol and biodiesel from Mozambique. The 10% target for biofuels established by the Renewable Energy Roadmap creates a substantial level of demand for biofuels in the EU, which cannot be met by domestic EU production alone.

The Government of Mozambique, via its Embassy in Brussels, Belgium has been asked to submit comments on the proposed EC “Biofuels issues in the new legislation on the promotion of renewable energy” which contains an initial proposal for the biofuels sustainability scheme.

The Commission has requested views on the following four questions:
• How should a biofuel sustainability system be designed?
• How should overall effects on land use be monitored?
• How should the use of second-generation biofuels be encouraged?
• What further action is needed to make it possible to achieve a 10% biofuel share in the EU?

As a response to the EC request for comments, the Government of Mozambique has decided to invite a group of participants involved in activities in, or related to, the biofuels industry in Mozambique to discuss the EC proposal of sustainability criteria. Two additional proposals on sustainability criteria for biofuels have been presented by the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. These two proposals will also be discussed during the Mozambican workshop.

The discussion has two key objectives:
• To inform stakeholders of the principal elements of the EC, UK and Dutch proposal and its potential implications for Mozambique in terms of challenges and opportunities.
• To provide a forum for stakeholders to express their views on the proposal to feed into official government comments to be submitted to the EC.

This discussion should form the basis for a set of national sustainability criteria for biofuel production in Mozambique.
