Waking up at the start of the end of the world...
Bitched on: Thursday, December 13, 2007 Time: 12/13/2007 09:40:00 AM
They are at it again... We know we're in a climate crisis, yet these countries are still stubborn to make any changes, citing economic reasons...
Hello? The world is coming to an end, don't they care? Here's a message I got from my email from a non-profit global campaigning organization this morning:
We're here at the climate summit in Bali - but it's reached crisis point. Working late, negotiators were nearing consensus that developed countries should pledge post-Kyoto emissions cuts by 2020--a step which the scientists say is needed to avert the worst ravages of global warming, and which will help to bring China and the developing world onboard. But then the news broke: the US, Canada and Japan rejected any mention of such cuts. Every few hours the draft changes.
We can't let three governments hold the world to ransom: so we're launching a global emergency petition before the summit climax in 48 hours. We'll deliver our message every way we can - a stark full-page advertisement in the Jakarta Post conference supplement which all the delegates are reading, stunts at the conference gates, direct to country negotiators - telling Canada, Japan and the US to accept the option of post-Kyoto targets, and the rest of the world to settle for nothing less.
Please take a moment right now to sign the new global emergency petition. Wake up people!Labels: global warming, natural disasters
