8 полюсов Фредрика Паулсена
    Buffet, Charlie | Meyer, Thierry

Au premier printemps du millénaire, Frederik Paulsena foulé le pôle Nord et découvert que la Terre cachait d’autres pôles : le pôle magnétique, ce point mouvant que désignent les boussoles, le pôle géomagnétique, plus stable, et le pôle d’inaccessibilité. Comme la terre a deux hémisphères, ces quatre « pôles Nord » ont leur jumeau au sud, en Antarctique. Frederik Paulsen s’est lancé un défi : devenir le premier homme à atteindre les huit pôles de la planète. Charlie Buffet et Thierry Meyer racontent ces treize années d’aventures dans des lieux froids et hostiles, qui gardent l’empreinte des exploits passés et où les scientifiques décryptent l’avenir de la planète.
The conservation status and distribution of the breeding birds of the Arabian peninsula
   

There are 357 species of birds breeding within the assessment region, which consists of the whole of the Arabian Peninsula, plus Iraq, Syria and Lebanon, including offshore islands and the Socotra archipelago. This assessment has two main objectives: to assist in regional conservation planning by assessing the status and distribution of all species occurring within the region; and to develop a network of regional experts to support future assessments and the updating of the information on these species. One of the  main direct outputs of this assessment is this report on the status of the breeding birds of the Arabian region, including a Red List assessment of all the species, an identification of the main threats for each species, and a spatial representation of the centres of species richness and threats. 
Draft International Covenant on Environment and Development : implementing sustainability
   

The Draft International Covenant on Environment is an ongoing contribution of the International Council of Environmental Law (ICEL) and the IUCN Environmental Law Programme (IUCN ELP)  to provide a framework for implementing sustainability at all levels of society following the outcome of the Rio+20 Conference, and subsequent adoption of the United Nation’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The Draft International Covenant is a blueprint for an international framework (or umbrella) agreement consolidating and developing existing legal principles related to environment and development. Over the 20 years since the first edition was prepared by leading experts from all regions of the globe, the 5th Edition continues the tradition as a “living document” having undergone four revisions to ensure that it is up-to-date with the newest developments in the field of public international law.

Small arms survey 2015 : weapons and the world
   

The Small Arms Survey 2015: Weapons and the World examines the role of weapons and armed violence in humanity’s appropriation of the earth’s wildlife and mineral riches—in Africa, where the poaching of elephants and rhinos is becoming increasingly militarized, and near resource extraction sites around the world. In addition to presenting updates on the UN small arms process and the top arms importers and exporters, the volume assesses how recent technological developments affect weapons marking, record-keeping, and tracing; reviews small arms flows to Egypt, Libya, and Syria before and after the ‘Arab Spring’; and evaluates a stockpile management initiative in South-east Europe. The ‘armed actors’ section sheds light on the arms and ammunition used by insurgents in northern Mali, the decline of the Forces Démocratiques de Libération du Rwanda, and the use of floating armouries by private security companies in the Indian Ocean. This edition also analyses the conditions that are driving young people to adopt high-risk coping strategies in Burundi.

TEEB for agriculture and food interim report
   

Interim results are presented from five exploratory sector studies (on livestock, rice, agroforestry, inland fisheries and palm oil), while the development of a ‘valuation framework’ provides a common lens for ensuring that the full range of impacts and dependencies can be examined under different applications (i.e. by sector, system or practice). Finally, the report examines the way forward for this study by identifying economic and policy drivers and incentives that influence land-use decisions and management techniques within production systems around the world.
