A lot of effort has been expended getting climate change back into the public eye in the lead up to the upcoming United Nations (UN) Climate Summit in Paris. Many involved have declared the ‘eyes of the world will be upon’ the meeting. Those promoting this perspective aim to build a groundswell of public understanding of and support for the goals of the summit, in the hope that this will generate strong pressure on political leaders to reach an ambitious deal at the conference.
