As to ways of influencing the
negotiators, I did make the case for establishing a framework, especially
C&C, at the Stakeholder Conference in Brussels on 15 October, as a way, et
al., of dealing with countries squabbling over their share of the 'greenhouse
pain' (letter to G copied to you on 16 October) and then sending a copy of my G
letter to the chair of the Conference session: Artur Runge-Metzger, Head of
Climate Strategy etc at the EU. So attending such conferences and speaking
up when few others are doing so is one way.
One can also speak direct to policy
makers in the All Parliamentary Party Climate Change Group meetings in the House
of Commons, when they are held, including, in the past, the front bench
spokesmen for all the main parties and Lord Adair Turner. And occasionally
at other public meetings from the floor.
Cheers from Jim
