Two Interesting Lectures on Thursday the 10th
The first thing I will attend at Oxford directly related to environmental politics is tomorrow. Professor Patricia Birnie will give a presentation entitled "Exploiting the ambiguities of Article 65 of the Law of the Sea Convention: current practice of the International Whaling Convention" at 12:30pm. It is taking place in lecture room 6 of New College and I encourage anyone interested in the law of the sea to come. Free sandwiches will be provided.
Also tomorrow, at 5:00pm, there will be a lecture at St. Antony's on the topic: "Marxism: The greatest fantasy of the twentieth century?" Professor Leszek Kolakowski and Professor John Gray will be speaking.
On an entirely unrelated note, several people have asked me to change the font for the blog back to Garamond. This I would be happy to do, since it is a lovely typeface, but for the following problem. When I set the blog up so that Garamond is appropriately legible at 1024x768, the screen resolution used by 67% of readers, anyone viewing the blog on a computer without Garamond, and therefore seeing it in the fallback typeface, sees all the text as ridiculously huge. At present, my knowledge of CSS doesn't permit me to overcome this, so I will need to stick to fonts that both Windows (83% of readers) and Mac OS (12% of readers) come with by default.
