REPORTS
A bitter debate has broken out in the scientific community over hydropower’s contribution to global warming. A leading climate scientist calculates that there are startlingly high levels of greenhouse gas emissions when water is released from the turbines and spillways of dams in the tropics. But hydro industry-backed researchers have sharply attacked his work. An IRN report, "Fizzy Science: Loosening the Hydro Industry’s Grip on Reservoir Greenhouse Gas Emissions Research," calls for a UN scientific panel to review the issue.

 "Well dressed? The present and future sustainability of clothing and textiles in the United Kingdom"
The Sustainable Manufacturing Group is part of the Institute for Manufacturing at Cambridge University. This report from them presents the outcome of a five person-year study conducted at the Institute for Manufacturing on the future supply of clothing and textiles to the UK. The bulk of the work of the project was a scenario analysis of various future means to meet the UKs demand for clothing and textiles. The scenarios were developed with three case study products, and analyzed according to the "triple bottom line", including environmental life cycle costs, calculation of national accounts and prediction of employment changes.
