Thanks Mike. In looking at the Mitigation theme (Day 3*) I see no evidence of CDR being discussed. Presumably "Geoengineering" means SRM. Nevertheless good to see that "Gender Issues and Climate Change" gets a top billing, as does my favorite, "Private Resilience" I take this to mean methods of keeping a stiff upper lip in the face of impending climate and ocean acidification catastrophe. Valuable, indeed. Anyway, too late to change the course of destiny now, deadline for Parrallel Session proposals was Nov. 14. Enjoy. Greg
*Day 3: Responding to Climate Change Challenges This day addresses mitigation and adaptation options, highlighting scientific and technological breakthroughs and discussing barriers, trade-offs, co-benefits, risks and feedbacks. It explores local and regional responses, and discusses pathways for integration across sectors and stakeholders, emphasizing the need for bottom-up approaches that will be explored through the examples of local and regional case studies.
