Your call on Copenhagen

Every day you call friends, colleagues, and loved ones without a second’s thought. But have you thought to tell the most important decision-maker in Australia what you need?

The UN climate talks in Copenhagen are approaching crunch time. Kevin Rudd is representing you at this meeting - a meeting to decide how we deal with climate change. Is it business as usual? Or will we make the changes necessary to reduce Australia's greenhouse gas emissions?

Protecting our native forests is one of the most cost effective and easiest ways to reduce our emissions. 25% of greenhouse gas emissions are caused by logging and degrading forests and bushland – so protecting forests makes climate sense.

Kevin Rudd is about to make a call on your future. Why don't you make a call to Kevin?

Go on, call Kevin Rudd on (02) 6277 7700 and let him know you want him to:

• Start reducing our greenhouse gas emissions now
• Protect and restore the world's natural forests as part of the climate solution
• Ensure comprehensive accounting for land use emissions (including forestry)
• Prohibit conversion of forests to biofuel or plantations
• Protect Australia's own carbon-dense native forests, not just point the finger at developing countries

Call the PM's office on (02) 6277 7700 before the Copenhagen talks end this week.
