Tod's been e-mailing me while en route to Copenhagen. I've been sending him "airplane reading" (long, dense articles), including "Planet Worth - Goldman Sachs bets on global warming."First, I need to correct yesterday's post. Tod had a place to stay in Copenhagen before he left but he apparently wanted a different place. I don't want you to think he's a rash young man because...well....he isn't!
Secondly, Tod may be Healdsburg's unofficial delegate to the 15th United Nations Convention on Climate Change, but he's an official Sonoma County delegate, according to the Trib's editorial this week by Rollie Atkinson, "Carbon Neutral."
The Sonoma County Water Agency is the lead county that is sending the seven delegates to Copenhagen. At COP15, I'll be checking for updates (blog posts, videos, Twitters, etc.) on the convention from the county's attendees.
Tod is also the Communications Director for the Post Carbon Institute. He suggested I check PCI's website for his reports from Copenhagen.
As Tod landed in Copenhagen, presumably last night, he was met by a huge cheering, candle-carrying crowd (see photo above). Actually, the photo is of some of the 100,000 strong protestors in Copenhagen organized by 350.org.
Hi Gail,
ReplyDeleteI sent out an announcement to the HCB mailing list that you were doing this. Thanks again. What an enormous task.
