The March 28, at 20:30, you have an appointment with the planet to show that the fight against climate change is possible. This initiative WWF is the largest campaign in defense of the environment in history, with the participation of 1000 million people. Earth Hour 2009 will involve governments, citizens and businesses in a joint action to draw attention to the effects of global warming and demand that political leaders act to control CO2 emissions before it is too late. So far, more than 1000 cities in 80 countries have pledged to turn the lights off most emblematic buildings, as a symbolic gesture of support for Earth Hour.
No time to waste. Let us each do our part in the hourglass for that time of change do not stop ... Only from each can stop the countdown of the destruction .... We synchronize our conscience to save the planet
only have word of mouth to get it, we can not have "the media" are too afraid to lose advertising customers; not with governments, through too many interests! ...
From: Greenpeace's Blog last week coincided in time two international events that addressed the issue of climate change. One of them has been a summit of Holocaust deniers, which has received wide coverage in the Hispanic media. The second a major scientific conference to discuss the latest research on climate change held in Copenhagen on the same dates ( http://climatecongress.ku.dk/ ) and that is hardly covered in the media. And today in my blog I want to denounce the apathy of the media treatment of climate change that was evident last week. Regardless of their ideological orientation all media gave wide coverage to the denial. Certainly stands out as the best review that made Carlos Fresneda in elmundo.es . Certainly the fact that Aznar was on the agenda of this summit, and then disappeared from it was an element that influenced the coverage. All this also removed the victims of the Holocaust deniers, always complaining of the lack of attention they receive (impoverishes!). Despite its position of victimization, the denial handles large amounts of resources, and get a false image of silencing. Any communication strategy developed especially through the Internet, and that one day broken down into detail. In fact, while the Copenhagen Congress were the most prominent representatives of research on climate, climate change and its consequences, his voice barely reached the public. Summarized their findings in a communication final ( http://climatecongress.ku.dk/newsroom/congress_key_messages/ ) of which only underlined the first (the translation is mine): "Recent observations confirm that, given the high levels of emissions observed, the trajectories of the worst scenarios of the IPCC (or worse) are producing. For many key parameters, the climate system is moving beyond the natural variability parameters in which our society and economy handesarrollado. These parameters include the average global temperature, sea level rise, ocean dynamics and ice sheets, acidification ocean, and extreme weather events. "But it's more fun to follow the adventures of Aznar and Klaus.
