Who will reward those who fight corruption

There are sectors that gives awards to individuals and perhaps also groups and institutions that fight corruption. Among the best examples of these reward-giving bodies are:

Transparency International (Award)
Ramon Magsaysay Foundation (Award)
Department of Finance (Monetary)
World Bank (Monetary)
Others

A friend of mine who entered the contemplative community said: The one that gives the biggest reward for the person or persons who fight against graft and corruption is God.

In some ways, fighting climate change will not solve the problem

After the 2005 Hyogo Conference, scientists urged the United Nations to consider that the various conflicting issues surrounding Climate Change is "distracting governments" from providing solutions to threats of disasters worldwide.

"The current UN focus on "fighting climate change," as illustrated in the Nov. 27 UN Development Programme's Human Development Report, is distracting governments from adapting to the threat of inevitable natural climate changes, whatever forms they may take. National and international planning for such changes is needed, with a focus on helping our most vulnerable citizens adapt to conditions that lie ahead. Attempts to prevent global climate change from occurring are ultimately futile, and constitute a tragic misallocation of resources that would be better spent on humanity's real and pressing problems."

A letter written to UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon ventilated sentiments of scientists and technology experts on the issue of focusing deeper into finding means to adapt to the threat of climate change.
