Dear Group

I thought that it would be a good idea to set up a blog for the ICFE preparation course and I welcome relevant contributions that will help the group to share information and to communicate in English on a daily basis.

Using this blog should also cut down on the amount of paper content during the course!

If you have any problems using this blog please let me know.

Unit 6 Eco-accounting

The Guardian has a fascinating article on the future role of accountants
http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2010/oct/28/accountants-hope-ecosystems
The comments are particularly relevant.

Lots of great  language that you can adapt for discussing sustainable accounting; following on from the exercise in Unit 6 on page 60/61

    It's interesting to see how reticent countries such as China and India are being challenged to incorporate natural resources valuation into their economies. The problem is that these countries commit partially, while their governments do not make real changes to the local legislation.

    Hi, Susie. It happened to be a waaaay too simple expression: "it is to their liking"... spanish-speaking are prone to over-complicate.
