 The power of the people in the fight against climate change
Juan Castro Gil speaks with Roger Cox. The Spanish National Association of Photovoltaic Energy Producers (Anpier), in collaboration with Greenpeace, has initiated a project inspired by Urgenda, a small civic association that accomplished something seemingly unthinkable a year ago: that a Dutch court force the government of the Netherlands to take greater measures in reducing greenhouse gas quotas. This historical achievement of Urgenda and Roger Cox, the lawyer who spearheaded the initiative, is hardly known. Another equally combative lawyer, Juan Castro Gil, is fighting an equally uphill battle in Spain to ensure that the government reimburse promised rates to photovoltaic producers. This is the conversation that Roger Cox and Juan Castro Gil maintained exclusively for Renewable Energy. | Panorama Environment America launches 100 percent clean energy education programme IRENA seeking director for key division PV Greenlight Planet wins award for delivering affordable solar energy products India
