WWF Online Video Blog Goes Inside Copenhagen Climate Talks
COPENHAGEN, Dec. 4 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
A ground-breaking online video blog aimed at keeping the pressure on world leaders at the Copenhagen climate
change summit goes live on Monday 7 December.
WWF - the world's largest conservation organisation - has partnered with Green TV and Greenfilm to create
Inside COP15, a live and on-demand online video service which will operate round the clock for the two weeks of
the talks.
Inside Cop15 - at http://cop15.panda.org - will cover all the breaking news stories as well as carrying comment
and analysis from some of the world's leading climate change issues. In addition to the hour-by-hour story
developments, Inside COP15 will also be covering all the side events, demonstrations, cultural happenings and
alternative summits which go to make up the circus that is Copenhagen.
"The whole point is to allow people all over the world to feel as if they too can participate in the Copenhagen
climate change talks," said WWF's Martin Atkin, Executive Producer of Inside COP15. "The eyes of the world will
be on Copenhagen, expecting a global deal on climate change, and there is a massive demand to be part of that
process."
"We will be covering everything from the latest developments in the negotiations to what the food is like in the
convention centre and everything in between. These talks are a serious business, but there's plenty of room to
have fun as well. We'll be avoiding the grey men in grey suits talking in jargon - we aim to be accessible and
authoritative, informal and informative."
Green TV founder Ade Thomas said: "Inside COP15 will bring the people to the COP, and the COP to the
people. It's the next best thing to being there - in fact, its better, because it's be dark, cold and wet in Copenhagen
in December."
Inside COP15 will be creating a number of on-demand video podcasts every day plus a live-streamed talk show
each evening. All the content is free to use - anyone can grab the video and embed it on their own site. All we ask
