Water lettuce is a free floating aquatic plant in rosettes of green leaves, rosettes occuring singly or connected to others by short stolons whose origins are uncertain. It forms large, dense floating mats. The plant can adapt to life in ponds, dams, lakes and quiet areas of rivers and streams, but cannot withstand salt water.

Pacific Research and Evaluation Associates

The Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) and the International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (ISDR) collaborated with implementing partner SPREP to host a five day Writeshop (workshop) in Fiji in 2011. The Writeshop was funded by the UNITAR Climate Change Capacity and Development (C3D+) Support programme. The objective/outcomes of the Writeshop were twofold: 1. To build capacity of young Pacific country scholars, practitioners and policymakers to write quality publishable papers in the area of climate change, particularly on climate change adaptation and the linkages to disaster risk reduction. 2. To produce quality publishable papers ready for peer-review and facilitate the publication of peer-reviewed articles in academic journals to inform the policy making process on climate change. This Writeshop evaluation was informed by desktop research, an online survey and interviews with some key stakeholders. The evaluation was guided by a set of evaluation questions. · Were approximately 16 quality publishable papers published in academic journals as a result of the Writeshop? · What factors have contributed to achieving or not achieving intended outputs and outcomes of the C3D+ project? · What progress toward the outcomes has been made by the C3D+ project? Has the C3D+ partnership between UNITAR and SPREP been appropriate and effective? · To what extent have the C3D+ project outputs and assistance contributed to outcomes of the PACC programme?

The Keeling Curve is the name given to the chart of rising atmospheric CO2 levels, as measured at the Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii. So far, none of the action taken to tackle climate change has slowed the curve's inexorable rise. Co2 has now reached the symbolic threshold of 400 parts per million (ppm)
