The globalised world and the Gaia Hypothesis In an interview with Dr Tim Flannery for The Science Show, we spoke of ants and mammoths and of Copenhagen, of climate and population, and of the Gaia Hypothesis. Can the earth appear to behave like an organism? Can it seem even conscious, in the way Dr Flannery implies? There have been some spectacular developments in what's called Complexity Science in recent years and in our understanding of the way systems interact. Old conflicts die hard Global media attention has focused on Sudan in recent weeks to an unprecedented extent. And it should. A referendum to be held this Sunday in the country's south will most likely result in the creation of a new nation state. The chance for peace in a region plagued by war is tantalising - the likelihood of a return to violence equally evocative. But one question that has not been adequately addressed in the world's press is why this referendum is necessary. A whale of a story It has never been a secret, as reported this week, that Australia has been seeking to 'cut a deal' with Japan so that it would drastically reduce or phase out its whaling operations. The reality is that the wheels of international justice turn very slowly. This creates opportunities for Australia to negotiate a diplomatic solution to this dispute which could be a turning point in the future of whale conservation. Shane Stone and the NTÂ's mandatory sentencing regime It is going too far to say that the cruel political opportunism of mandatory sentencing in the NT didn't go far enough. US Congress: get used to dramatics This week the 112th Congress will sit for the first time and already the expectations are that politics in America will become even more fractious. In the weeks before it sat the rhetoric was confrontational - 'gridlock' , 'repeal', investigate'. Don't listen to the talk of a desire for bipartisan cooperation, American politicians are set to spend the next two years fighting for the centre by defining the extremes.

The globalised world and the Gaia Hypothesis How delightful it is, as ABC listeners turn from the wireless during these hedonistic days of summer (if you're not awash in Queensland) and as most Australians give current affairs a bit of a swerve, to know that the stalwarts at News Ltd are still tuning in.
