Tony Blair works to convert the remaining CO2 hysteria into profit for carbon traders

Khaleej Times Online - Blair to Report on Climate Change Deals at Abu Dhabi Summit
ABU DHABI - Former British prime minister Tony Blair will report on the state of the deals on climate change at the World Future Energy Summit 2009 to be held here from January 19 to 21 at Abu Dhabi National Exhibitions Centre (ADNEC).

Tony Blair will be delivering the closing speech at the Summit which brings together over 100 experts, 300 exhibiting companies and 12 national country pavilions from around the world, the organisers told Khaleej Times here.

The former British prime minister is now leading the ‘Breaking the Climate Deadlock Initiative’, through which he is working with world leaders to develop an international climate policy framework.

Backed by the Climate Group, a non-profit international business body dedicated to a global deal on climate change, Blair is leading a team of international experts to work on various international projects to tackle the intractable problem of securing a global deal on climate change.
