As I get ready to head off to COP27 in Egypt, three things are on my mind.
Firstly , I’m none the wiser as to whether the views of people in Northern Ireland will be represented as world leaders decide what’s needed to keep global warming to 1.5 degrees higher than preindustrial levels.
Until this week, Rishi Sunak wasn’t going to the annual global climate conference. Now he is... so at least that’s something. But I have no idea if any officials from NI will be joining the UK team, as no one here has been able to tell me.
