Blogging for climate change awareness

Today is Blog Action Day, and this year, blogs around the world will be talking about climate change.

Blog Action Day 2009Here at the Bank, we've already spurred a lot of discussion about climate change so far, and hope to continue the discussion on climate-smart development in the future. You can learn more about our efforts and research on the topic by visiting the newly-redesigned and re-structured Climate Change site.

In addition to the topic site, the Development in a Changing Climate blog has been hosting a discussion around the issue for a little over a year now, and the recently-released 2010 World Development Report focuses on how both low- and high-income countries need to work together to address the issues of climate change.

(The East Asia & Pacific on the rise blog posted their own Blog Action Day post today as well, and there's some really great thoughts leading up to Copenhagen15 on there. Do be sure to check it out.)

 

 

We'd love to hear your views on climate-smart development and climate change, so be sure to visit the Climate Change site and Development in a Changing Climate blog if you have any thoughts.

And if you have your own blog, think about participating in Blog Action Day and help kickstart the discussion on global climate change.
