In December 2009, delegates from around the world will meet in Copenhagen, Denmark for the 15th Conference of the Parties (COP 15) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Copenhagen will provide a critical opportunity for the world’s nations to reach a comprehensive agreement before the commitments set out in the Kyoto Protocol expire in 2012.<br /> <br /> Beyond War President, Elaine Hallmark, an environmental mediator in her own right, and her husband, Beyond War Voting Member, Bill Hallmark, will be traveling to the Copenhagen meeting in December and to the Barcelona pre-meeting in November as representatives of Beyond War on the Mediators Beyond Borders team. (See discussion <a href="http://beyondwar.ning.com/forum/topics/beyond-war-endorses-mediation">here</a>.) We’ll stay current with the process by providing a blog or other information about their experiences once they are underway.
