Earth Negotiations Bulletin

Every day there is a reporting team from a Canadian based NGO which covers the Conference Activities and reports the following day on main developments. They do this both for the negotiations and the side events . Its great to catch up and they also produce a great curtain-raiser which gives a lot of background to the conference and the different meetings that have resulted in the current agreements and processes.

ECO

The Climate Action Network produces a daily newsletter which gives a critical commentary on the negotiations and key developments. Its an awesome civil society tool as most delegates pick it up and read it. You can see the daily ECO on the CAN website
