The UN Climate Change Conference in Cancun, Mexico is over. For a brief summary of what the meetings accomplished, read this post on IntLawGrrls.: Winning & losing (mostly losing) in Cancun. See also this related op ed in the Sydney Morning Herald by Jane McAdam, written partly in response to a news story in The Observer.
Also from Jane McAdam is her presentation on "Climate Change Displacement and International Law," given at a Side Event to the High Commissioner's Dialogue on Protection Challenges, 8 Dec. 2010.
