Moving
Planet is a worldwide rally on 24 September to demand solutions to
the climate crisis—a
single day to move away from fossil fuels.
Come on bike,
on skates, on
a board, or just on foot.
For too long, our leaders have denied and delayed, compromised and caved. That era must come to an end: it's time to get moving on the climate crisis.
Come with your neighbours and your friends, your family and your co-workers. Come be part of something huge.
Synchronised
demonstrations
around
the
world
on
Saturday
December
3rd 2011 - in as many places as
possible - to call on world leaders to take urgent action on climate
change.
The 'Call to Action' for the demonstrations is as follows
“We
demand that world leaders take the urgent and resolute action that is
needed to prevent the catastrophic destabilisation of global climate,
so that the entire world can move as rapidly as possible to a stronger
emissions reductions treaty which is both equitable and effective in
minimising dangerous climate change.
We demand that
the long-industrialised countries
that have emitted most
greenhouse gases currently in the atmosphere take responsibility for
climate change mitigation by immediately reducing their own emissions
as well as investing in a clean energy revolution in the developing
world. Developed countries must take their fair share of the
responsibility to pay for the adaptive measures that have to be taken,
especially by low-emitting countries with limited economic resources.
