From the Charles Morris “World Diary” or the week’s preview – we find that today, Monday June 7, 2009 -

Start The Montreal International Economic Forum, and The African Energy Conference in Tanzania. Then on Thursday there will be a meeting of the G8 Development Ministers in Rome – but none of these has anything in their announcements that says they will focus on climate change.

On Wednesday June 10, 2009, very appropriately,   The Yearly Meeting of The Institute of International Finance starts its meetings in Beijing   – after all that is were the money is – but they do not mention climate change.

Better are the Brazilians who start the Latin American Cities meeting in Sao Paulo on Tuesday to discuss the economy and energy issues, and the EU, will talk in Brussels starting Wednesday on the creation of a “Green” future.
