Horizontally linked

I am trying to develop some informal connections with other people in North American who are working on climate change policy or research. In particular, I would like to get in contact with anyone studying feedback effects or policies that cities are adopting. Also, I would like to get in touch with people working within Canadian federal departments other than Environment, as well as people at the US Environmental Protection Agency.

PS. Harold Coward and Andrew J. Weaver’s book Hard Choices: Climate Change in Canada is worthwhile reading for those interested in Canadian climate change policy.

On the networking front, there is probably a group of Oxonians in Ottawa.

There is a relatively new interdepartmental ‘strategic foresight working group’, coordinated by Agriculture. They deal with many issues, but climate change is one of their concentrations, and many of the members are involved with climate change-related files. It might be worth checking out.
