The star turn at the UN climate change talks in Nairobi came from Britain, according to a proud David Miliband.
The environment secretary told Guardian Unlimited in the latest of a series of exclusive podcast interviews that the Stern report, commissioned by the chancellor, Gordon Brown, and published last month to widespread acclaim, has been a hit on the international stage.
A packed room of 450 high powered peopled debated the report's content, Mr Miliband told us earlier today.
The Australian prime minister, John Howard, whose government resisted becoming a signatory to the Kyoto agreement on the grounds that it wasn't fair because developing countries like China and India didn't have to have binding targets, is starting to wonder whether he was being so clever after all, Mr Miliband said.
