KYOTOplus campaign and the Copenhagen Climate Conference

We must act now for the future.

The most important climate conference in history runs from December 7 to 18 in Copenhagen, Denmark.

At this United Nations conference, world leaders must agree to take action to significantly reduce the world's greenhouse gas emissions if we are to avoid climate chaos.

The KYOTOplus campaign has already mobilized 150,000 Canadians to pressure the federal government to support strong action on climate change in Copenhagen. Without action, millions will suffer.

The federal government has failed to act, failed to lead.

Why? A big reason is the dirty oil of the tar sands. Greenpeace actions in September and October exposed the climate crimes of the tar sands

Support KYOTOplus to demand action to stop climate chaos.

We'll deliver the signatures to Ottawa and to the Copenhagen conference.

SIGN THE KYOTOplus PETITION Help turn Canada from failure to leadership.
