Tomorrow the Climate Change Conference in Bali will be over. So, what will the outcomes be and what will they mean for our planet and everyone on it?
I thought it might be useful to highlight a few ‘Bali Talks’ resources informing us what the world leaders are discussing, what they decide and how we can get involved.
URGENT PETITION: Stop the Climate Wrecking at Bali!
AVAAZ.org have put together an urgent petition to stop the leaders of a few countries making a big mistake.
The talks in Bali were reaching an agreement across all nations which stated that rich countries would meet climate emissions targets by 2020 and developing countries would contribute over a longer period of time. According to AWAAZ Japan, the US and Canada are trying to block these targets and could potentially ruin all of the plans which were so nearly put in place.
Before the end of Friday 14th December please sign the ‘Stop the Climate Wrecking at Bali Petition’ and show the leaders of these countries that it’s not acceptable for them to throw away the planet’s future.

DO IT YOURSELF
Of course whilst we’re waiting for those in charge to deliberate and argue amongst themselves we can take the lead and show them how its done. Whether you’re a business owner, parent, young person – anyone - you can reduce your own carbon emissions and tackle climate change individually. Here at Green Girls Global and next door at Green Guys Global you’ll find hundreds of ideas on how to go about it.

Oh no I missed the deadline for the petition! Thanks for the great links will check them all out, also I had never actually encounted Avaaz before, they are running some great campaigns.
The Do It Yourself advice is fantastic, we all have to take personal responsability as we can not expect politcal ‘leaders’ to always make the best decisions or guide us.
