Root of Pope Franciss Appeal Among Secular Sustainability Seekers

New York Times: Ive been musing on why Pope Francis has attracted so many secular scientists and others trying to chart a low-impact path for humanity in a crowding, turbulent, fast-forward century?* I count myself among these ranks, and that was one reason I spent four days at the Vatican in May, 2014, lured by the title of a meeting organized by the Pontifical Academy of Sciences and the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences: Sustainable Humanity, Sustainable Nature, Our Responsibility. I think I found the...

Environmental groups seek to appeal ExxonMobil settlement
2015-09-23 14:41:36| Oil & Gas - Topix.net
Environmental advocacy groups have requested permission from a New Jersey Superior Court judge to appeal his approval of a $225 million pollution case settlement between the state and ExxonMobil Corp. The Philadelphia Inquirer reports the groups argue that the state disregarded its responsibility by settling for far less than the $8.9 billion sought at trial last year. An attorney representing the Sierra Club and Clean Water Action told Judge Michael Hogan on Tuesday that the groups want to ensure New Jersey and its citizens are adequately compensated for ExxonMobil's contamination of sites across the state.

French reject Google appeal on 'right to be forgotten'
2015-09-21 14:48:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) French data privacy agency Cnil has rejected Google's informal appeal against its formal notice requesting the company to apply delisting on all of its domain names under the European Court of Justice's 'right to be forgotten' ruling of May 2014. After Google received several tens of thousands of requests from French citizens to remove search results based on their name, it delisted some results at Google.fr, Google.es, Google.co.uk and other European extensions. However it did not delist them from Google.com or other extensions that any internet users could visit. Cnil therefore put Google on notice to delist on all of its domain names in May this year to which Google replied by filing an informal appeal asking Cnil to withdraw its formal notice. The company argued that it would impede the public's right to invormation and would be a form of censorship. Cnil said its decision does not show any willingness on its part to apply French law extraterritorially, but requests full observance of European legislation by non European players offering their services in Europe. Since the informal appeal has been rejected, the company must now comply with the formal notice. Otherwise, the president of the Cnil may designate a rapporteur who may refer to the Cnil's sanctions committee with a view of obtaining a ruling on this matter.
