Introduction From The Australian Tracker Phil From The UNFCCC COP 15 Day 1

An introduction from Phil Ireland who is tracking the Australian delegation during the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change towards the UN Climate Change Summit in Copenhagen this December. About The Adopt A Negotiator Project: A fair, ambitious, and binding agreement coming out of the Copenhagen Climate Change Conference (COP15) in December could mean the difference between a manageable future and dire climatic consequences. But who knows what really goes on at these meetings? For an event described as the most important meeting in the history of the world, scant little seems to be known about what goes on behind the scenes. Through Adopt-a-Negotiator, we are lifting the veil and shining light on this diplomatic process. Launched at the Bonn intersessional talks in June, well track the negotiations through Bangkok, then Barcelona, and on to Copenhagen, following the lead negotiators and delegates from 12 key countries, and sharing news and updates of their positions along the way.
