date: Tue Jun 25 12:50:46 2002 from: Mike Hulme subject: Re: Forum 2002 to: John Houghton , jp bruce , M.R.Allen@rl.ac.uk, PeterBakken@cs.com Dear John, Thanks for this. An alternative title for my contribution could be 'Is climate change dangerous?' which will take the FCCC wording as a starting point, run through some of the elements of potential 'dangerous' impacts as revealed by science research, and end by emphasising that 'dangerous' in the end is a value judgement to be resolved through national and international discussion. I would prefer to use a powerpoint presentation from my laptop (is a data projector available?) - if not, then I could prepare OH transparencies. A bio is attached which can be edited as needbe. Best wishes, Mike At 18:44 24/06/02 +0000, John Houghton wrote: Dear Mike and Jim Thank you for your messages. The audience will be around 70 we expect about 40 from outside the UK (mainly US). Thank you Jim for your speaking notes which I thought interesting, challenging and appropriate. Are you happy with the rather dull titles I have given you or would you like something different? I have noted that Jim is bringing 35mm slides. What visual aids do you wish Mike? Please could you each provide me with a short biography for the Final Programme by the 3rd July please and please copy reply to these questions to Myles Allen With many thanks again for your help, Best regards John
