The UN Climate Change Conference due to take place in Copenhagen from December 7 to 18 2009 is the world’s opportunity to replace the Kyoto protocol with a new treaty that addresses climate injustices and the resulting human suffering. It is crucial that world political leaders recognise this suffering and propose precise solutions that mean that everyone can live in safety everywhere on earth.

 

Commensal and Rythme FM support the world movement for climate justice.

Why support the movement?

• The world’s poorest citizens are the most vulnerable to climate change because they don’t have the resources needed to minimise any negative impact.
  
  
• In many regions of the world, war, famine, and disease have all in part been fuelled by changing climate.
  
  
• Millions of people need an increasing amount of aid, a responsibility that should be shouldered by the world’s big polluters and decision makers.
  
  
• Climate justice means that people can live safely the world over.
  
  
• The clock is ticking. We must act.
