Ivory traffickers held in Central African Republic
The arrests were the first of their kind in the African nation since it passed a wildlife protection law in the 1980s, said Ofir Drori, director of the Cameroon-based group The Last Great Ape which announced the arrests with WWF.One woman had 157 ivory objects weighing more than 200 kilogrammes in her home in Bangui, the groups said in a statement.
The other trafficker was detained in a Bangui hotel Friday as he was "trying to sell 14 ivory objects, hippopotamus teeth and a panther skin," said the statement.
The two could face up to a year in jail if found guilty.
"They had several decades of experience between them and were said to be at the centre of an international ivory trafficking network," the statement said.
Illegal poaching threatens the elephant with extinction, animal protection groups say, despite the ivory trade being banned by a 1989 international agreement.
Experts say some 38,000 African elephants are killed each year for their tusks.
Cetaceans and Other Marine Biodiversity of the Eastern Tropical Pacific: Options for Adapting to Climate Change.
This three-day meeting brought together 72 international experts in cetacean biology, oceanography, biodiversity, conservation and climate to discuss the current status of cetacean and other marine populations in the eastern tropical Pacific and to assess their vulnerability and adaptation options to climate change in the region. This is the first effort in the region to collate oceanographic and climate knowledge in the context of vulnerabilities and adaptation options for marine organisms. Although it did not aspire to be comprehensive, it will serve as a platform to stimulate further regional work towards adaptation of marine habitats to climate change.

Final voyage of the Japanese whaling fleet?
Following a week of potentially crippling budgetary reviews and a high-profile visit from US President Barack Obama to Japan, the so-called 'scientific' whaling fleet crept out of port. Greenpeace called for the departure to be the program's last.Indonesian Forest Ministry halts APRIL’s forest destruction on Kampar
Greenpeace today welcomed Indonesia’s Forest Minister, Mr. Zulkifli Hasan’s, statement ordering APRIL (RAPP) to halt its forest clearing activities on the carbon-rich peatlands of the Kampar Peninsula, Riau, Sumatra, pending review of their permits.Happy 50th Antarctic Treaty
On December 1, 2009, Greenpeace celebrates the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Antarctic Treaty. From this treaty, an international landmark was created and a World Park was established to protect an entire continent.End of Japanese whaling may be in sight
We've been watching the horizon for this one for a very long time, but our colleagues up in the crow's nest report that a new blip on the horizon could mean an end to Japanese whaling in Antarctica.SHUTDOWN! Forest destruction blocked by Greenpeace to save the climate
On the eve of Barack Obama's arrival in Asia for his first official visit and while the United States continues to block progress ahead of the critical UN climate - we've taken direct action at the frontline of forest and climate destruction - to urge the US President and other world leaders to end global deforestation as part of the deal at the UN Climate Summit in Copenhagen this December. With up to a fifth of global greenhouse gas emissions coming from cutting down and burning forests, it's clear we cannot avert a climate disaster unless they do.Obama and the whale
The government of Japan has decided to look into wasteful spending. We can't think of a greater waste than the Japanese whaling program. So we sent a delegation to the place where the review committee is meeting.House Approves Historic Chemical Security Bill
Eight years after the September 11th attacks, the House of Representatives approved the “Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Act of 2009,” (H.R. 2868) by a vote of 230 to 193. This is the first time either house of Congress has approved permanent and comprehensive chemical security legislation. The U.S. was the number one problem in Barcelona
On November 6th in Barcelona, Spain, United Nations climate change negotiations were supposed to conclude final preparations for the long-awaited talks in Copenhagen this December. But, after the-five day session concluded, the world was not much closer to the fair, ambitious and legally-binding treaty needed from the Copenhagen talks.Greenpeace activists hang a banner from Barcelona's Sagrada Família that reads "World leaders, make the climate call." © Greenpeace/Pedro Armestre
Safety First: Clorox to Eliminates Chlorine Risks

People could some day recall that it was the Information Technology (IT) industry’s advocacy for strong action which tipped the balance at the Copenhagen climate summit. But that's not going to happen unless all of us press them to become climate champions. As our updated Cool IT Challenge leaderboard reveals, IT heavyweights such as Google, Microsoft and IBM are still hesitating to speak up on the urgent need for emissions reductions.Music
