Well, today I didn't leave my backpack (including computer and passport), on the Malmo bus (!) Good news, despite a very grey, foggy, damp morning. The quick walk through Malmo Centrum to Central Station is a delight.
Plenty of positive coverage on BBCWorld. Stories about China's approach, and Indian poor (ramifications and effect on getting an agreement). The FT states that "Business leaders call for clear direction" - at least that message is constant. The "UN lady" on the train says that "they are very positive, but they would be, wouldn't they?"...
Finally a picked up a consolidated, official Side Event booklet - the challenge is not to miss anything!
I just got to the venue, through the dozens of eager young folks handing out brochures and flyers ranging from Greenpeace and WWF through to the Schiller Institute ( www.copenhagenscandal.org ) to the Polish Klub Gaja offering Polish oak tree seeds to be planted "for a good climate".
Then I was interviewed on behalf of ISES by Andrew and Kate of the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, from the US-based Center for Public Integrity www.publicintegrity.org . A charming pair, and I believe wiser for our discussion about the affordability of solar (both PV and thermal) and its relevance to technological interventions throughout the developing and developed worlds.
more later...
