Good Magazine - The GOOD Guide to COP15 - A Primer

Basically a bit more background on COP15, what will be happening there and other seemingly random facts. Interesting, but not really all that important after the part titled "A brief history of carbon". Again, a very short read that does provide a little info about COP15.

Copenhagen, ho!

There’s a famous Danish proverb that roughly translates to, “He who is afraid of asking is ashamed of learning.” So, lest you get caught in a cycle of fear and shame in anticipation of the world’s convergence on Copenhagen, we offer this primer on all things COP15—and all things Copenhagen.

Point of Clarification: The COP in COP15 doesn’t stand for Copenhagen. It stands for Conference of the Parties, and it’s the 15th such event. You’re probably most familiar with COP8, which took place in Kyoto, Japan, in 1992.

When is it? December 7 to 18, 2009
