As the negotiations heat up behind closed doors, the supposedly open COP process remains suspended as the temperatures continued to drop outside as winter draws near in Copenhagen.
There were several interesting quotes today:
“This is the largest and most complicated international process that has ever been – because there are so many issues all at the same time.”
“It is chaos from which order emerges with many many people talking to each other”
“The government can lead but it can only lead so far. The biggest thing missing for the US to take stronger action is a large grassroots movement at home creating the political will necessary to move this issue in Congress.”
and finally,
“If you ever think you’re too small to make a difference, just remember a time when you’ve been stuck in a room with one mosquito.”
