If anyone is interested then email Mike Schwarz. I've told him I've no time. Bear in mind the other side will likely get someone to put the opposite view across. Not sent widely as I presume a court would only be impressed by qualifications.

I have been given your name by Greenpeace. I am acting for some Greenpeace campaigners who face criminal proceedings arising from a protest about a new Landrover model which they say is unnecessarily fuel-inefficient and therefore contributes more than necessary to climate change. I am looking for an expert who might be able to prepare a short (4 or 5 pages) report - aimed at a lay audience, rather than cutting edge science - summarising the connection between human activity and climate change and the effects of climate change with a view, if need be, to giving evidence at my clients' trial - at West London Magistrates Court on 28^th and 31^st October. My clients have legal aid to be represented and so I would be able to pay for a report. Is this something, in principle, you would be able and willing to help with? If so I shall give you further details. If not, is there someone else you could suggest? You should be aware that I have written in similar terms to Professor Hulme. I look forward to hearing from you.
