With the UN climate change conference taking place in Bali in December, the implications of current policies on climate justice will be an important consideration.

On 23 October, there was also a protest against carbon trading in Denpasar, capital of Bali. Top marks to whoever made a banner that read: “Our Forest is not a Carbon Toilet for Developed Countries.”
