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.

Just FYI. mcs ---------------------- Forwarded by Mark Schroeder/LON/ECT on 20/02/2000 12:51 --------------------------- Catherine McKalip-Thompson@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT 31/01/2000 18:36 To: John Palmisano/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT cc: Mark Schroeder@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Fiona Grant@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Terence H Thorn/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Mary J John/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Heather J Mitchell/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT Subject: European Trip Report 22-30 Jan 2000 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. Catherine
