Interesting timing for your question. My take, after discussions with Terry,
was that she was brought on to handle the environmental side of sustainable
development, but that Palmisano was utilizing her for greenhouse gas related
issues since not much had occurred on the other front yet. Burt Mike and I
learned last week that she actually reports to Palmisano--he is the one who
took her from consultant to employee status. I spoke with John on Friday and
told him that I wasn't going to poach her now that I knew where she fit in
the scheme of things.

This actually solves a dilemma for me anyway. As you know, I need a more
senior environmental person with good high level relationships with NGOs and
I didn't want her to feel slighted when I found someone. Moreover, she has
just advised us that she and her husband are moving to San Francisco and
wants to telecommute. This should work fine for John but I feel it is
important for my person to be in DC or NY.

Is Catherine working on environmental policy related to sustainability or is
she working on greenhouse gas transactions . . . or both?

You do not need to real Catherine McKalip-Thompson's full trip report from
her European venture, but you did express some surprise that on her trip to
Europe she went beyond policy and discussed "busienss" or commercial
activities, as I recall our conversation. her note below makes clear, to me,
that partnerships and investments were discussed with, inter alia, a Dutch
distribution company, Credit Lyonnais, and CGU (an insurer). Just FYI. mcs

John,

Attached is my trip report for Amsterdam, Paris and London - I've given the
contact information for everyone to Kathy to be entered in the database and
thank you notes are going out today.

The company meetings did not go quite as well as I might have hoped (Edon was
not so interested), but we need to discuss further the potential relationship
with Credit Lyonnais' effort to develop the "gap financing" fund.UNEP
conference not as billed but some contacts there such as Credit Suisse First
Boston and Gerling's Sustainable Development Company were useful as both are
quite interested in climate change business opportunities. Also it provided
a chance to gather interesting updated info on current financial-sustainable
development metrics, links, funds, firms, etc. Discussions with participants
in the UK Emissions Trading group were interesting and I now have several
working papers on this effort which I can distribute to anyone who is
interested (though Mark's group probably has them already but I'll check with
them directly on that). I did not get the chance to meet up with Nicola Steen.
