Action on Global Warming

Two recent interviews help us understand that some governments are serious about addressing the problem of global warming.   Both Sweden and Great Britain are proving to be innovative in this regard.  The first interview is with Sir David King, King4_2  Prime Minister Tony Blair's Science Advisor. http://globetrotter.berkeley.edu/people5/King/king-con0.html  The second interview http://globetrotter.berkeley.edu/people6/Liljelund/liljelund-con0.html is with Lars-Erik Liljelund,Liljelund2  Director of Sweden's Environmental Protection Agency. Both interviews provide fascinating accounts of the meshing of science and politics to create a public consensus on moving forward while experimenting with medium term national policies.
