So today I wrote a song and we sang it after the US won first place for Fossil of the Day today.
(to the tune of "America the Beautiful")
Oh Nusa Dua, the beautiful
Home of UNF triple C
In plenary and contact groups
Negotiate for you and me
The time has come, we cannot wait
The seas are rising fast
It’s time for action on climate change
An agreement which will last.
As Americans we are ashamed
At our country’s intransigence
Blocking REDD and tech transfer
And adaptation funds
Delegates of other lands
Don’t think they speak for us
We are the youth, we beg of you
Protect our futures now
Harlan Watson, don’t try to stop
International action
Two degrees bring droughts and floods
And tropical disease
America America demonstrate leadership
Commit to binding emissions cuts
From sea to shining sea

Also, I'm currently in one of the plenary halls waiting for Al Gore to get up and speak. I got a free teddy bear too!
Me, Josh, and the Climate Cub
