To all!
This blog will (ostensibly) follow my 2010 travels across southern Mexico, from COP16 to backpacking in Chiapas.
There will (hopefully) be beautiful pictures and grand adventures related to you herein.
I am going to Cancún for the UN Climate Negotiations, where I will be a delegate representing the Cascade Climate Network. However, there will be no UNFCCC talks on this blog- in response to the inevitable failure of COP15 and other UN environmental initiatives, I will be searching for real solutions to climate crisis among the outsiders.
The "outsiders" are the indigenous, the peasants, the community organizers, the students, and the radical thinkers. The passion for the new climate movement will come from them.
The Stimulator talks about COP16 (along with other anarchist nonsense).
After COP16, I will travel through Chiapas and practice Spanish speaking. I'm going light and will probably only be able to update when I stop at an internet café or hostel. I'm going to be making plans as I go, so I don't know when that will be- I might even end up celebrating the New Year with the Zapatistas.
Travelers always promise to update their blogs and never seem to be able to.
So if I don't, I'll be keeping a journal. You might read it?

This is my personal blog, not connected to the CCN. For COP16 reporting, go to the delegation blog where I will be uploading articles, photos, and video. It should be a riot.
