Cancellations gives new opportunities, Ecosystem-based adaptation

Yvo meeting was cancelled!

In this moment I therefore attend an IUCN meeting on Ecosystem-based adaption. Ecosystems that are developed and managed well is a accessible solution for the most vulnerable countries, but one example was from Roslagen in Sweden where agricultural practices have been changing, not least due to adaption against fungal pathogens. UNFCCC is about us all!

Other examples of High Nature Values that is a natural response to climate change came from a new report ISBN 978-2-8317-1215-4, probably downloadable from IUCN: s homepage.

Before leaving the room! Rumours say there will be a draft on a "protocol" already this afternoon, but rumours also claim that last night Mr Lumumba Di-Aiping, representing the Group of 77 left a meeting in anger. He thinks the COP-15 "conference will be wrecked by negative intentions of some people," (TV2 DR). We will see what happens.

But I know that people do work to find good formulations that can apply to a majority. For example, I know that 30 groups of EU-staff work on their specific "chapters", and at my hotel the lobby and corridors are full of energy!
