BEIJING, Nov 25 2005 (IPS) – As China prepares to undertake a massive drive to inoculate every chicken and duck in the country against avian flu, experts are cautioning that political will and ample budgets are insufficient to accomplish this Herculean task.
Efforts to inoculate China s 14 billion farmed birds could be easily undermined by the use of substandard or fake vaccines and by lax local implementation- two areas of grave concern for the central government, which has invested huge political capital into defeating the avian flu epidemic.

But what of the countries that lie further north and along the Mediterranean? In the case of one of these nations, Algeria, concern about the pandemic is mounting even though statistics suggest little cause for alarm at first glance.

MONTEVIDEO, Feb 15 2006 (IPS) – The frequent antagonism between protecting the environment and creating new jobs is clearly evident in the construction of two pulp mills on the Uruguayan side of the river that creates the border with Argentina. In addition to threatening bilateral relations between the two countries, the projects pit environmentalists against labour unions.
The mills, being built along the Uruguay River by Spain s ENCE and Finland s Botnia companies, and slated to begin operations in 2007, are fueling hopes for more jobs in the area, but are also stirring up fears of future damage to natural habitat and harm to human health.
