• The Web Of Hope has just got better
     
     We've redesigned the website from the ground up to create a site that mirrors our times. 
  • The Web Of Hope is lively
     
     With news, commentary and analysis, and plenty of new, inspirational stories. And you can have your say as well. 
  • The Web Of Hope is interactive
     
     You can leave comments on stories, and there's more social networking than you can shake a stick at! Twitter tweetly. Face-up with Facebook. 
  • The Web Of Hope is arty!
     
     Arts and ecology, like peaches and cream, Ben and Jerry, Ed and Ed, Popeye and Olive Oyl. We're talking to the brightest young talent. Hopesters are go! 
  • The Web Of Hope is intuitive
     
     New menu bars - one at the top for the basic stuff, including Google search; one below the logo for stories. Lots of contextual help in the sidebars. 
  • A new way of ordering things
     
     We've redesigned the taxonomy, matching it more closely to the real world. Each story is comprehensively tagged and cross-categorised.  
  • Our philosophy
     
     Sustainability is the core of the project. It follows that arguments are heard, debate is joined, rigour is applied, tough choices are faced up to. Thinking is required. 
  • Join the Team
     
     Bill Scott is our first contributor and the team now includes Joshua Konkankoh in Cameroon. Have something to say? Then say it here. 
  • Fukushima 2: When Things Go Wrong
    By the beginning of the 1990s rational argument and cumulative confirmation of our skeptical prognoses had carried the day. Alas, nuclear proponents have now found a new generation of the gullible. The claims of the proponents, nevertheless, have long since been tested and found wanting.

  • Horrors: Travel & Transport
    Cars are responsible for combusting eight million barrels of oil every day, contributing to nearly a quarter of total global greenhouse emissions.

  • Agroecology
    States can and must achieve a reorientation of their agricultural systems towards modes of production that are highly productive, highly sustainable and that contribute to the progressive realization of the human right to adequate food.



  • Living Machines
    In 1989 Dr. John Todd decided it was time to offer a cost-effective, renewable or what is now commonly referred to as “green” solution to the growing global wastewater crisis.

  • Redefining Health
    In the same way that we cannot add chemicals to Earth’s systems without creating systemic impacts on the surrounding ecology, so the introduction of toxic drugs to the human system will always produce systemic side-effects.
