Kenya — Dig It!

While the mid-term elections get all the media coverage in this country, much of the rest of the world is focused on the major international climate conference going on in Nairobi, Kenya.

Sadly, the Bush Administration continues its “stay the course” policy of refusing to take action to prevent catastrophic global warming:

“I certainly got no indication (from the Bush administration) that there’s any change in our position, nor is there likely to be during this presidency,” U.S. negotiator Harlan Watson said.

While Climate Progress would love to have attended, you can get daily blogging from Nairobi from the World Resources Institute blog. They are not only providing daily updates, but have excellent background information on exactly what this conference is and on what its agenda is (and should be).
