The UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen has now ended. Without a fair, ambitious and binding agreement, it is the world’s poorest people who continue to suffer most from the adverse impacts of climate change. We need to continue to put pressure on our political leaders to deliver Climate Justice.
The fight for Climate Justice continues and with your support and other Climate Allies, including Jet Li, Clarence Seedorf, Desmond Tutu, Bob Geldof, Ted Turner, H.M. Queen Rania of Jordan, Vitali Klitschko, Muhammad Yunus, Dan Carter, Jamie Burke, Mélanie Laurent, Angélique Kidjo and many more, the ‘tck tck tck – Time for Climate Justice’ and its partner campaigns have become the biggest and most broad-ranging petition in the run-up to the U.N. Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, collecting over 15 million digital pledges of support. We need to build on this growing momentum to ensure that the call for Climate Justice remains heard.
The individually numbered tck tags, worn by our Climate Allies, will remain a visual symbol as we continue the fight for Climate Justice – purchase and wear yours in support here.
Over the next few weeks we will ask you to continue to support the fight for climate justice. Our unique human clock will now be reset to ‘tck’ down the start of the next UN Climate Change Conference in Mexico on November 29, 2010.
We need your continued support to exert pressure on world leaders in the fight for Climate Justice. You can send an email directly to your political leader using the 'Lobby Your Leader' email function and spread the word about ‘Time for Climate Justice’ using Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and the ‘Tell Your Friends’ email function.
Kofi Annan, president of the Global Humanitarian Forum and inspiration behind the ‘tck tck tck – Time for Climate Justice’ campaign, said:
“A deal that stops at rhetoric and does not actually meet the needs of the poorest and most climate vulnerable countries simply will not work. [...] climate justice must be at the heart of the agreement."
Tck tck tck. The fight for Climate Justice continues.
