It's the new year!
Let's talk conferences. Not just ways to meet and talk, but also make money meeting and talking. As to actually doing anything, well...
Sorry, I'm jaded.
Here's the first of what will be many, but it's a goodie:
BP, Ford, Ben & Jerry's, Stop Climate Chaos, and others talking climate change 7-8 March in London
Dear Colleague,
Everyone is talking - if not going - carbon neutral. At least that's the way it seems. "Carbon neutral" was recently named Word [or two words, or phrase, shouldn't that be?] of the Year [that, or rather they, say a lot right there] for 2006 by The New Oxford American Dictionary.
Looking back, last year may end up remembered as the year that climate change went "mainstream," catapulted to the spotlight by major media outlets around the globe. And if 2006 was the Year of acknowledging climate change, it's time to make 2007 the Year of communicating AND acting on climate change.
Yaaaay, and this will cost me...how much?
I got to '...and to take advantage of the £100 early registration discount.' and gave up. That means they want at least £1k to talk some more.
Talk... about a waste.

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.
Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.
I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
