COP15 - The world's gathering to tackle Climate Change


Here I am in Copenhagen @ the UN Climate Conference as a correspondent covering for the Editorial Group www.cittanuova.it , which includes the Italian magazine Citta Nuova, and also 36 international editions in 22 languages for countries like Germany, Brasil, USA and Japan.


This is the first time I write on my blog after an intense year in the Masters degree, and I do it to help raise awareness of the Climate Crisis & Solutions.
