As for the global part, I think that part of the research on climate change should be directed towards better mechanisms for international and intergovernmental coordination on climate change, beyond the IPCC.

You write really well. And I do think people have had a mindshift in recent years, thanks to Gore. We are on a road to solving climate change - we just happen to be in the slow lane. There just needs to be a bit more support nationally and internationally. For such a "glocal" problem, the global part of the solution has to pick up some slack - local people can only do so much.

But I wonder if the positive attention Gore brings to this cause will be diminished if he re-enters the political race. Great post Raoul.
