The SevuSevu is a gift, which we presented to the village. Here the leaders hand is on some Kave, while he is reciting something (a welcome? a prayer? I dunno - it was in Fijian!)

“The Green Word” (7 July 08)
Unreserved PRAISE for South Africas incredibly aggressive new climate change strategy!! http://allafrica.com/stories/200807290362.html
_________
I cautiously welcome the G8’s “common vision” on climate change; to cut global emissions by 50% by 2050. Of course, scientific evidence, to stop the worst impacts, suggests we need to cut by 80% by 2050 and 100% by 2065. Lets see what the G8+5 do tomorrow, what the fineprint is, what the actual action is, and what the US does when that has-been Bush finally goes.
