Climate Change: It’s a mens’ club.
Last week, the U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon announced a new climate change financing group. The group’s task which has 19 members is to allocate funds to developing countries to help mitigate the impact of climate change.
There are no women in this task force. All 19 members are men. It seems that climate change is a man’s job.

Demanding Justice and Action. A must-see video from Copenhagen
This must be probably the most honest speech I have heard all these days in Copenhagen and it comes from the Canadian youth delegate, Taryn McKenzie-Mohr. She makes an emotional plea to Canada’s lead negotiator, Michael Martin, to change Canada’s obstructive role at the global climate negotiation.
