Ah, smoking in restaurants.

Nothing like good Swiss food marinated in a film of tobacco smoke after a long and sleepless flight. But it’s a small price to pay for free wifi. I’m gearing up for a climate change conference for journalists that is being held here over the next few weeks. The roster includes reporters from almost every corner of the globe, and I’m looking forward to learning about what they think are the important climate and environment issues back home. My goal is to utter the phrase climate-risk management no less than a thousand times in 4 days.
