Por mi no mucho la verdad. No se opone firmemente a transgénicos, es más dice que se evite hablar de ellos; prioriza el tema clima-agricultura, habla de agricultura smart-climate- el tema social y ecológico secundarios; temas económicos no controlo de financiaciones sorry. Además poner en práctica las conclusiones del IAASTD porque son lo mejor que hay...

pues eso, que finalmente había mucha gente que no podía quedar tan pronto, para poder asisitir a la reu del Eje metabólico (que es a las 20h en la Tabacalera)...así que se ha hecho un doodle para fechar la reu en noviembre. María, si quieres pasarte por la reunión del Eje (es de 20h a 22h) estará bien tb, y es interesante saber lo que se está moviendo ahí. De la ISAm irán algunos, que pensamos en la útlima reu que estaría bien buscar sinergias, y hacer una "presentación formal" ; ) (María y Berta, ya le pasé a Jon vuestros contactos para la lista de correo la ISAm) buen finde a todas, y que aprendáis mucho las que os vais a Logoroño...¡¡ya nos contaréis!! un besote, alba.

IMPORTANTE. Reunión comisión de coordinación 25 de octubre
by maria teresa charro moro 26 Oct '10

26 Oct '10

Buenos días, Os mando un resumen de la reunión de coordinación de ayer. La próxima asamblea se fijó para el lunes 15 de noviembre ya que el próximo 1 es fiesta y el lunes 8 con el puente del día 9 festivo en Madrid se pensó que habría poca gente. Hay que decir hoy cada comisión si nos reuniremos el día 2 martes o el lunes 8 para fijar la próxima reunión de coordinación el día que más comisiones se reunan, asisque debíamos mandarles qué día/días vamos a reunirnos en el día de hoy. Tambien entre las cosas urgentes habría que mandar a Tom la lista de los que vayan a ir a la concentración del miércoles frente al casino por la condecoración del CEU a Uribe. Os lo explico en el word. Un beso. María
