Postcards from Poznan
|
In December, world leaders meet in Poland to discuss the most important challenge ever faced by humanity - tackling climate change. This will be their first major step since the climate forum in Bali last year. The Poznan climate negotiations will begin the process of setting climate change emissions targets for all countries, including for the first time the United States and Australia - and what measures can be used to meet those targets, starting from 2013. The Wilderness Society has greatly strengthened its engagement with the UN climate processes this year. Thanks to strong support from our members we are able to send a very strong delegation to Poznan - urging world leaders to take strong action to reduce logging and land clearing, as part of the global plan to tackle climate change.

Events in real-timeDid you know deforestation (land clearing) and forest degradation (logging) are one of the leading sources of greenhouse gas emissions? We'll be posting regular updates from inside the UN Climate talks both on this page and at our Twitter Climate Change website >> What is Twitter? Twitter is a free service that lets you keep in touch with people through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing? |
