Copenhagen: online petitions for climate change action

Wednesday, August 26th, 2009 by admin

The UN Climate change conference in Copenhagen, in December 2009 is crucial for the future of the climate.  It’s where a gobal deal will hopefully be made to agree action on climate change.  I keep stumbling across online petitions asking for people to support decision-makers attending Copenhagen to make an ambitious agreement  leading to effective action on climate change. I’ve brought the petitions together here – feel free to sign them!
