It's why we're all here. Negotiations between the G8 leaders at Gleneagles take place all day, hammering out the details of tomorrow's communique. The Guardian's diplomatic editor Ewen MacAskill and economics editor Larry Elliott will report from inside the compound on the discussions.
Meanwhile as anti-poverty campaigners keep the pressure on the politicians, us sherpas will keep tabs on the protests as they continue today here in Edinburgh and at the Gleneagles.
Today Friends of the Earth activists will set off an alarm outside the G8 summit. Across Edinburgh, and around the world, you will hear church bells. The time of the bells - 1345 - is significant; 13% of the world's population live in the G8 countries, but account for 45% of global carbon dioxide emissions.
We'll be rounding up catching up with what happened at last night's Final Push Live 8 concert at Murrayfield.
We'll be finding out what the police think about their week so far, and catching up with what the bloggers have been saying about G8.
