Chairs for Copenhagen

We wanted to contribute in some way to the Copenhagen climate conference. Jens, our sales agent in Denmark, found a way. The public dimension of the Copenhagen conference is called Klimaforum09–”The People’s Summit”: this is where citizens can meet and discuss the activities of the governments at the UN talks. Klimaforum09 needed chairs for the media centre, so we donated 21 Reee chairs.

It’s a strange time: things have been building up to the UN Climate Conference for months, the debate has sharpened and minds have focused, yet the overriding sensation is uncertainty. As a small business that makes furniture, all we can do is give people something to sit on while they work it out. But we’ll be watching the outcomes of the conference closely to see whether they give us a new sense of direction. Fingers crossed…
