350 Aotearoa

Join the movement

I saw this just now at http://www.transitiontowns.org.nz/node/2174 :
"We have launched the only formal written petition to go to Parliament on climate change policy.

It urges the Government to use the 350 ppm CO2 equivalents as the policy basis for all legislation and international negotiations - and that we all work together knowledgeably and in partnership to reach this target.

We are trying achieve a sense of shared direction and positive action over the challenges of climate change. We have so many skills and good ideas in this country. We need to harness that very real resource, and use it for our country's and the world's benefit.

New Zealand can only benefit economically if it is an early formal acknowledger of what the scientists are telling us about climate change, and uses this as a point of difference to promote our country and its products. Such actions will also make us more internally resilient.

PLEASE if you agree, download the petition attached to this post or go to www.caritas.org.nz - print it out, sign it, get everyone in your world to sign it, and return to the address on the petition by 2 December so we can present it on the eve of Copenhagen"
