More Noblesse Oblige again

A shameless regurgitation of old material here, suggested by the following - forwarded to me by my co-conspirator Marc Hudson.

Four days before global climate change talks kick off in Copenhagen, more
than 850 UK and international companies are urging Prime Minister Gordon
Brown to push for an ambitious and equitable deal that can promote
sustainable growth, jobs and prosperity.
The organisations are endorsing a communiqué that is being presented to the
Prime Minister tonight by the Prince of Wales Corporate Leaders Group on
Climate Change.
The communiqué sets out the business case for a strong and effective UN
climate framework and underlines that economic development will not be
sustained unless the climate is stabilised, making it critical that we move
beyond the global downturn in a way that lays the foundation for low-carbon
growth.
The Corporate Leaders Group includes John Lewis, Shell, Tesco, Kingfisher,
Vodafone, Unilever and Lloyds Banking Group. The communiqué has already
secured the support of more than 850 companies based in over 50 countries,
including the US, most EU member states,

Slamdown - A good clean fight.

In the final countdown to Copenhagen, the West is accused of underhand tactics in climate negotiations. Imagine my Surprise!.



Yes, I know the Phillipines aren't exactly low-lying, but sometimes punch-lines are hard to come by.

Elsewhere, James Hansen weighs in with some perspective

...and the Angry Mermaid seeks some assistance!

The ignorant and small minded also have their representative at Copenhagen. We're all in the same boat. They're the arseholes mooning out the back.

This is an old Frank - again in the spirit of recycling.

Oh dear, am I repeating myself?

CLIMATE SLAMDOWN!

Well here it is at last - Gort and Klaatu's Climate Slamdown. It was commissioned by New Internationalsit magazine and I thank them hugely for doing so. It is, of course, the ultimate guide to the all-in wrestling mayhem due at Copenhagen in December, also available at the New Internationalist website, (soon on) the Climate Slamdown site and all good newsagents.
Please link to it , post it and distribute it as widely as your resources allow. Comments welcome, as usual - even though few folk take me up on that.
