The BBC are starting to gear up for Copenhagen with a couple of special programmes, and there's more to come in the weeks ahead including, I hear, a showing of the film The Age Of Stupid.
Monday 23rd November
The Yes Men
On: Channel 4
Time: 01:25 to 02:50
Satirical documentary. Giving new meaning to direct action, Mike Bonanno and Andy Bichlbaum are anti-globalisation protestors with a talent for impersonation. Setting up a fake World Trade Organisation website the pair soon found businesses inviting them to present at their meetings and conferences. With speeches that stepped over the boundaries of good taste, the duo demonstated just how readily corporate America will listen to and accept the most ridiculous ideas.
Tuesday 24th November
Home Planet

Can Obama Save the Planet?.
Investigative documentary series. Justin Rowlatt reports on whether or not President Obama is on target to keep his climate-change promises. Travelling across the US, using public transport, he encounters coal miners and car manufacturers, activists and politicians, a pig farmer and a film star. The film reveals two very different sides of America - people who agree that the US should be leading the world on tackling global warming and those who see Obama's plans as an attack on their liberties.
