UN-ENVIRONMENT-KENYA
Doris Leuthard, Switzerland Environment Minister speaks at a press conference as Achim Steiner, UN Environment Programme Executive Director listens on following the official opening of the twelfth special session of the UNEP Governing Council/Global Ministerial Environment Forum that kicked off in Nairobi on February 20, 2012. Top scientists will tomorrow urge governments to replace GDP as a measure of wealth, end damaging subsidies, and transform systems of governance to set humanity on a new path to a better future - or risk climate, biodiversity and poverty crises that will spawn greater problems worldwide. These are among the messages from a new paper by 20 past winners of the Blue Planet Prize - often called the Nobel Prize for the environment. Bob Watson, the UK’s chief scientific advisor on environmental issues and a winner of the prize in 2010, will present the paper to government ministers from around the world on the second day of the session at the UN Environment Programme’s governing council meeting in Nairobi.
