2nd Tues: CNN/YouTube Debate


well, here's a surprise, apart from it SNOWING (beautiful!) and amongst all the chaos, Dave and I got some tickets for a 2 hour CNN YouTube debate featuring (excuse spelling - it's dark!) Beccie Anderson (compare), Bjorn Lomberg, Darryl Hannah, Tom Freidman, Yvo de Boer and Kofi Annan, by video. Lots of fun and games. It will be broadcast on Wed, Thu and the w/e, as well as live streamed - although probably isn't all that relevant to you, in Oz.) Sorry, couldn't take a worthwhile snap - lighting not suitable!)
The questions were posed via YouTube (thousands) and ranged far and wide. They ranged from supportive to denialist, as well as skeptic and anti-alarmist. I won't try to report it's progress - maybe you can watch the video.

Bjorn of course is not a denialist, but he doesn't believe that the UNFCCC process is the way forward - like James Hansen.
