Email 3757: Roger Harrabin and Joe Smith write to UEA warmist Mike Hulme, ask: "What should the BBC be doing this time in terms of news, current affairs, drama, documentaries, game shows, music etc?"

We are writing to some alumni of the University of Cambridge Media and Environment seminars gathering ideas for the BBC's coverage of the Rio+10 Earth Summit in a year's time. Before the Rio summit, the BBC held the One World festival, which included some memorable broadcasting - particularly a feature drama on refugees. Some broadcasting is already in the pipeline that will relate to the themes of Rio+ 10, but this is an open opportunity for you to put forward ideas that will be collated and circulated amongst relevant BBC decision-makers.

* What should the BBC be doing this time in terms of news, current affairs, drama, documentaries, game shows, music etc? * How can the BBC convey the theme of sustainable development to viewers and listeners who have probably seen all the issues raised before? * Is there any scope for a global broadcasting initiative? * What are the strongest themes and specific issues that should appear in the media in the months and years following the conference?
