China wrecked the Copenhagen deal?

January 1

Takver commented on Jessica Xu's blog post 'China wrecked the Copenhagen deal?'

I have no doubt that China acted out of self interest, just as Western Industrialised nations have been doing so. The problem we have is no country that contributes substantial emissions is stepping up as an emissions reduction leader. Power politi…

Andrew Mudie commented on Jessica Xu's blog post 'China wrecked the Copenhagen deal?'

Hi Jessica, I agree with Luc that the blame game is not constructive. It can however be a useful way of identifying where we need to focus our efforts to turn the result around to benefit the whole planet. If we are to blame China, America or both…

Jessica Xu commented on Andrew Mudie's blog post 'Taking up the Mantle'

I share my ideas (somewhat in fear of how naive my words could sound) with an understanding that I have no where near as much experience, or knowledge in the field as both of you have shown... There are so many of us who understand that this issue…

Thank you for sharing your dream. I too hope to see the leaders I put faith in rise up to the occassion. I hope that my brother & I won't be living through a time of regret and destruction. I hope your words become reality.

Jessica Xu commented on UN Climate Trackers's blog post 'Shut out! But its not all bad.'

It's so disappointing to know you, we, have been treated in such a way. Can I thank you once again for your hard work & providing us with honest information. Still watching & hoping..

Thank you for your continued efforts in keeping us up to date. There's so much information around, it's hard to understand it all sometimes. If you haven't already, call up our leaders? http://action.350.org/p/salsa/web/common/public/content?conten…

Paul, thanks for the link to the Story of Cap & Trade! It's really helpful to those like me who are struggling to understand the nitty gritty of these policies and such...

Jessica Xu commented on UN Climate Trackers's blog post 'What a good global deal looks like (and other crucial updates!)'

Thank you again for keeping us up to date. It is disappointing to see that the media places emphasis on the violent minority of climate protesters, but it is encouraging to see the protesters on Sydney Opera House received media coverage too (http:/…

Thank you for this summary of sources, it really clarifies the government's current position for me.

Jessica Xu commented on UN Climate Trackers's blog post 'The Ambassador and I'

Thanks as always for the update! There's a lack of detail in any of Louise's answers though, and that frustrates me. I know the government has many other issues to consider, but for once can we break human habit and react to something before it hap…

Jessica Xu commented on UN Climate Trackers's blog post 'As we go to Copenhagen.'

Oh this is exciting, I really do have hope for our future! I'm doing as much as I can, organising an event at my high school this Friday (named Green Day, yes we are taking advantage of the pun) to sell blue laces, raise money & awareness. Hopefully…

Jessica Xu commented on UN Climate Trackers's blog post 'Australian climate policy paralysis'

Thanks for clearing some things up. I've got to say I'm happy that they're talking about it at least. Our voices are being heard; Malcolm Turnbull was on TV's Sunrise on Tuesday and said 'the Australian people want action on climate change'... That'…

China wrecked the Copenhagen deal?

Mark Lynas, author of 'Six Degrees', writes...

"Copenhagen was a disaster. That much is agreed. But the truth about what actually happened is in danger of being lost amid the spin and inevitable mutual recriminations. The truth is this: China wrecked the talks, intentionally humiliated Barack Obama, and insisted on an awful "deal" so western leaders would walk away carrying the blame. How do I know this? Because I was in the room and saw it happen. (Published in… Continue
