COP16

At this very moment, in Cancun Mexico, delegates and politicians from around the world are deciding on the future of our planet.

Among the thousands of people there are two AC students and two of my closest friends: Lindsay and Laura.

Laura is working with US youth delegation
and
Lindsay is with the UNfairplay delegation which helps countries who can't afford to send enough delegates

they are extremely busy and so I haven't really been able to communicate with either of them very much, but they are keeping a blog which is very interesting. To be honest, I don't really know what they are talking about half of the time, but I think it is incredible how much they are doing and how much they are learning.

Just this past week the Guardian wrote an article on UNfairplay which articulated many of the problems that the delegation is trying to deal with.

So, if you want to know what is happening right now to solve climate change (or what is doing being done), you can hear about it straight from the source.
