Post COP15 Part I

I am still recovering and trying to figure out what all of this means. I will do more once I get past putting up all my Christmas stuff and holiday shopping. I am close! But now it is about next steps before Mexico City and my little Sierra Club group had a very productive meeting about that tonight.

The Copenhagen Accord is posted at the UNFCCC site. The WSJ did a really good analysis of it with commentary from the Centre for Policy Research, the Chamber of Commerce and the World Wildlife Federation. The World Resources Institute also put out a legal analysis.

And may the greenwashing begin. The White House put out a list of who all thinks that the Copenhagen Accord is great. I believe all listed will be getting coal in their stocking. And no, it ain't the fictional clean kind. Also, did you know that the White House has a flicker account?! I guess this is similar to me realizing my mom has a twitter account before I did. See photos of the meeting the President Crashed in Copenhagen of world leaders.

For laughter and fun, check out the Dr. Suess interpretation of COP15 by Marcus Brigstock. Audio only at this time. It is absolutley right!
