“The recently released "zero draft" for the Rio+20 negotiations, lacks new commitments and concrete outcomes to advance sustainability, but workers have some concrete and achievable proposals.”
Very good critique by SustainLabour, the International Labour Foundation for Sustainable Development, of the Rio+20 zero draft.
“… there is a lack of reference in the text to inequality as a strong sustainability problem, and to redistribution policies as a solution. Sustainable development is not progressing fundamentally because of the deep problems brought on by increasing inequalities almost all over the world, between but also inside countries, where the wealth, the natural and capital resources are outrageously unevenly distributed.”
