Who knows what goes on at all those bureaucrat-level United Nations climate change meetings? Jason Anderson, for one, energy specialist at Climate Network Europe and Grist correspondent extraordinaire. In his latest dispatch, Anderson reports on the unofficial agenda of the latest Conference of the Parties: the World Cup. Inspired by the mania of the fans, conference participants decided soccer could be the key to finally getting something done about climate change. Unfortunately, the whole concept hit an old, familiar adversary: the United States. The rest of the world could go ahead with the soccer plan, but the Bush administration had its own idea -- baseball. Sound wacky? Well, somebody's tongue might have been in the vicinity of his cheek during the last conference. Help yourself to a little dose of satire, only on the Grist Magazine website.
