Getting there

Reading my favourite technology website I find a piece on Gordon Brown's energy policy, his recent speech on climate change and what may be a commitment to a broader target on renewables.

I also know that our UK office has been heavily engaged with the UK government in pushing for meaningful change. While there have been some public signs that this discussion was ongoing it's nice to see that it's starting to generate policy results. Of course the real crunch will come in Bali when we'll be looking to European leaders to set the standard for the rest of the world in environmental responsibility.

Fans of bear-baiting may enjoy this clip from Monday's edition of the BBC's flagship news programme, Newsnight, following Brown's speech in which the presenter and the executive director of Greenpeace UK tear into the energy minister about our government's shambolic performance to date.
