16 December 2009 - Copenhagen
BURN THE BADGE!
We Don't Need A Badge to Be Heard
Grassroots leaders from across Asia, Africa and Latin America - representing communities that protect, nurture and live as one with nature - call for your action and solidarity in condemning the disrespect to the voices of the people at the Copenhagen Summit and demanding that world leaders take inspiration from the democratic process of engagement and consultation that they - and others like them across countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America - have organized at the grassroots to ensure that people across the world stand committed to real action and lasting solutions.
Join us at 8.30am on 16th December 2009 below the Bella Centre Metro Station to 'Burn The Badge' as a message that our voices cannot be controlled and our commitment to find the answers to protect this earth and the future of the coming generations cannot be restrained.
A Declaration of Leaders of Climate Communities will be released at 10am on the same day at the Klima Forum INFO POINT Meeting Room.
The Coalition of Climate Communities is a spontaneous platform that represents the hope and anguish of grassroots leaders attending the UN Climate Summit at Copenhagen (Dec 2009) - and their resolve that grassroots communities need to be the protagonists and not the exhibits of the global debate on climate change.
