User:2over0/Climate change arbitration proposals

This page presents the proposals at Arbitration/Requests/Case/Climate change/Workshop organized by topic instead of by proposing editor. We are coming up on the proposed decision phase of this case, and I wanted to be sure that there are at least no glaring holes in the proposals. This is an open subpage - if the organization can be improved, please do so. I have avoided commentary here other than a brief neutral summary where the heading is not sufficient to the purpose, and I request that anyone else who edits this page do the same. Some proposals are included in more than one section. Ordering within a topic is vaguely straight down the /Workshop table of contents within each sub-sub-topic. - 2/0 (cont.) 22:12, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
