Hopenhagen
This week is Global Climate Week, which means we’re now inside 80 days before the United Nation’s Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen begins December 7.
In a bid to ramp up support and enthusiasm for a climate treaty that is “ambitious, fair and effective in reducing emissions,” the UN has partnered with the likes of Siemens, Coke and SAP in launching Hopenhagen.org.
The goal is to get people just like you to sign a petition, which will be presented before the world’s leaders at the conference.
It only takes a moment, and the website is pretty cool in that you can put in a short message about what “gives you hope” and it shows up on a glowing global map.
As UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon puts it, “World leaders will come together for the Copenhagen Climate Change Conference in December and every citizen of the world has a stake in the outcome.”
Here’s your shot to claim that stake.
