UN Climate Change Conferences: A Hopeful Consensus
Joe Murphy and I have been doing some research into the UN Convention on Climate Change and on the series of conferences that have defined the targets and represents a glimmer of hope for the natural world.
We have spoken to the people involved from the UN Secretariat to the people creating the protocols that form the basis of international law around climate change which is incredibly inspiring.
Kyoto was really the first time that 200 countries came together and agreed that something should be done. This idea that you can get so many people from so many different countries to agree is sort of unbelievably inspiring and gives us hope.
We think there are a lot of lessons there at a time when it feels like we're not agreeing and the idea of consensus is out of our grasp.
