Comments on Tim Wilson “Pass the climate parcel”, 24/09/2009, http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,26116014-7583,00.html
I couldn't help laughing when reading your article. It is amusing and an interesting read.
Nevertheless, I can't whole heartedly agree with or share your view that "INTERNATIONAL negotiations are like a game of political pass the parcel and every government is desperate to ensure they're not holding up negotiations when the music stops."
I acknowledge there is enough truth in it, but it is not and can't be true all the time.
China has made encouraging promises and India is also catching up, whether it is due to the pressure you argue or not. And that is a good thing to see on this important issue of climate change.
We should encourage the players to make more progress, as compared to just holding a stick!
