Sun, 27 Dec 2009 15:29:00 GMT

What obstacles does Pres. Obama face that Pres. Carter also did - and how can he overcome them? Two veteran Washington, DC journalists break down the year, and what's ahead in 2010. Steve Mufson from the Washington Post and Lewellyn King of the White House Chronicle discuss the year in review, and offer insights into the new year.

Spain Dries Up as Climate Changes: Eurinfo

Mon, 07 Dec 2009 09:30:00 GMT

Europe's driest country, Spain, is getting drier. Parts that were green only ten years ago have lost their colour. They can't support the animal life they once did. Emergency investment from the government into renewable energy sources just got a 100 million euro top-up. Spain is about to take its turn as European Union presidency (under the system which is on the way out) and plans to make climate change a priority. At local level, Barcelona has become a European pioneer in the field. Distributed by Tubemogul.
