COP21 - The Talking Continues

from The Sustainable Futures Report

This week the energy minister and the prime minister have been under fire as COP21 moves forward. While the main negotiating sessions continue, many other meetings take place as well. Mark Carney of the Bank of England has a view. The group of 77 nations  (G77) plus China has a view as well, and so do the 48 Least-Developed Countries. Caroline Lucas of the Green Party is concerned. Can we standardise climate change? Is emissions trading the answer? George Monbiot believes that that's attacking the problem from the wrong end. Jeremy Leggett is not at all happy with Minister Amber Rudd as you will learn from the latest chapter of his book, and the week will end with a massive march through the streets of Paris. I’m a member of iema (iema.net) and that entitles me to a daily update on the conference from the environmentalist magazine. Non-members can subscribe at  environmentalistonline.com. But we have our own man on the spot in Paris. You’ll hear from Richard Lane later on.
