Sign on for climate change
I've Signed On and joined 130,000+ Kiwis calling for urgent action on climate change and I think you should too!
Climate change is happening faster than expected and time is running out to avoid catastrophic climate change. World leaders will meet in December this year in Copenhagen for the United Nations climate talks. This could literally be the most important meeting in history. They could set us on the path of positive change - or they could lock the planet into catastrophic, irreversible climate change.
Leaders of the developed world, including our own Prime Minister John Key, must agree to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 40 per cent between now and 2020.
The current Governments target is 10-20% by 2020 and is highly conditional. John Key must step up and do the right thing and Sign On to a 40% target for New Zealand to do its bit globally, protect our clean and green reputation, and capitalize on the growing green economic opportunities.
I urge you to Sign On and support this campaign.
