While I only write in English, my IPS articles are translated into up to 20 languages. I have also created Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Italian and French versions of this website. Links are on the right panel on the main page. (However, these are difficult to keep up to date because of the amount of time involved)

Hi Stephen, I though you might find use in a United Nations Foundation Global Warming debate project on Debatepedia (a pro/con encyclopedia). Here’s a link to the portal page. I’m running the project. If you have any questions, do email me. Best,

A Steeghs: Thanks for your support.

Unfortunately I have never been able to travel to any of these mining sites but the people I interview have been. It would have been better to go myself but that is impractical and IPS/Tierramerica are non-profit media with no funds for travel. Sadly this is also the case for most media these days.

Hi Stephen,
First of all let me commend you on the important work you are doing bringing attention to important environmental issues. I’ve come across your name several times reviewing articles regarding mining and human rights/environment…specifically, “Canada Faces Pressure to Promote Sustainable Mining” and “Mining Rights Trampling Human Rights, activists charge”.

Hello Steven nice work that you are doing out there. Informing people about the world they are living in is important since its mostly within human nature to be selfish and ignore nature. (I meet you at a Restaurent in Cape Town where I’m a manager and you asked me if there is going to be another one like Nelson Mandela)

Hi Stephen. Wow, what a small world this is.

I won’t bore you with specifics but much of my work has revolved around forest issues, namely through organizations such as the FSC. Lately I have begun to blog on places like Myspace to explain how things like biodiesel and soy are actually doing more harm than good vis-a-vis global forests.

While using Google to search some info last night on the collapsing global food supply your name popped up as the #1 return. And I thought, “Hey I know this guy” so I decided to send you this note.

When you have some time I’d like to get together. There are major red alert alarm bells going off right now, but few people seem to be noticing.
