WE CAN ONLY HOPE...:

Copenhagen called climate 'crime scene' (New Zealand Herald, Dec 20, 2009)

The United Nations process at Copenhagen was slammed as "appalling" by New Zealand's climate change ambassador yesterday, in comments to international media.

Adrian Macey's strong words were overshadowed only by those of the Sudanese ambassador, who compared the deal to the Holocaust and said it would condemn Africa to widespread deaths from global warming.

Ian Fry, delegate for the low-lying Pacific island state of Tuvalu warned the goal for limiting global warming to a maximum rise of 2C above pre-industrial times would spell "the end for Tuvalu".


...that someone has preserved all the great Tuvaluran literature....
