In September'09, I received a mail to join one of avaaz.org's petitions for a "WORLD TO APEC: HOPE IS NOT ENOUGH!". Since then, I start to take small actions daily to do my part for climate change. Encourage public transport/carpooling, saving energy...I wished i could have done more then.
On Sep 21st, I was not able to join the Global Climate Wake-Up call flashmob at Orchard ION, but throughout the world, over 1900 events around the world took place. Huge masses gathered together, took out their mobile phones and dialed the office numbers of respective leaders of their country. For Singapore, we were given the numbers of PM Lee and our grassroot leaders.
On FB, a fellow St.Margs alumni set up a Go Green Rally. Was surprised to know that she cares alot abt this issue and that so many of her friends are joining her in this!! :D
Here's wad SAM posted.
"On December 7, leaders from 192 countries will gather at the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen to determine the fate of our planet. Let's turn Copenhagen into Hopenhagen. Hopenhagen is a movement, a moment and a chance at a new beginning. The hope that we can create a global community that will lead our leaders into making the right decisions. The hope that by solving our environmental crisis, we can solve our economic crisis at the same time. Hopenhagen is change - and that change will be powered by all of us.
Help lead the leaders by visiting hopenhagen.org today. Sign the petition. Become a citizen of Hopenhagen. Fuel the movement. More important, pass on the story of Hopenhagen to your friends and family. Encourage everyone you can to get involved and sign the petition. Because the more of us who do, the more our leaders will recognize the world is serious about change.
Let's turn Copenhagen into Hopenhagen."
Let us all do a part. Sign the petition against Climate changes! (:
