Live blogging from Chatham House
by Alex Evans | Jun 25, 2007
Back from a brief radio silence (me on honeymoon, David doing public diplomacy stuff in Nigeria), we’re off today and tomorrow to Chatham House‘s two day conference on climate change, from which we’re going to be live blogging.
We’re also jointly doing the wrap-up speaking slot at the end, during which we will attempt to sum up 2 days and 45 speakers in seven and a half minutes each… As Woody Allen once said:
“I took a speed reading course and read ‘War and Peace’ in twenty minutes. It involves Russia.”
