But not in Edinburgh!
The next round of UN climate changes negotiations take place in Bonn,
Germany from 14th-23rd July (COP6.5 to discuss the Kyoto Protocol). The
immediate 60% cuts in greenhouse gases scientists state is the required
action is not even being discussed. The cut being negotiated is 5.2% across
developed countries, with important exclusions, such as aviation and
international freight (so as not to interfere with globalisation?).

your bike for 'Critical Mass', and a grand tour of Edinburgh's climate
change landmarks.

Where? Festival Square (large square on Lothian Rd, next to Shearaton
Hotel, opposite Usher Hall)
