This week, we will be asking MP’s to “Lead Canada to be part of a progressive global deal in Copenhagen ”
What does that mean?
• Show leadership and work constructively with other nations to reach a strong new global climate treaty in Copenhagen that puts us on track to reduce carbon dioxide below 350 parts per million
• Assist vulnerable communities and developing countries in the transition to low-carbon economies and with adaptation to the changing climate
As young people, our future hangs in the balance of their decisions. There is no waiting. There is no higher priority. We demand the passage of bold climate and energy legislation in 2009-10.
