Background - 7 December, 2009
On December 12, 2009, Greenpeace will be joining with Tcktcktck.org, 350.org, Avaaz.org, and many other organisations around the world to send one simple and clear message: At the Copenhagen climate summit, the world wants a real deal!
Events will include public "signature walls" and evening
candlelight vigils where we will gather in silence to show our
support for a climate deal at the UN climate talks in Copenhagen,
which will be at their halfway point on Dec. 12th.

The World Wants a Real Deal is the latest in a series of
worldwide and local climate events that are building pressure on
world leaders to pass a fair, ambitious, and binding deal on the
climate in Copenahgen. Other events in the series include the
September 21st Global Wake-Up Call, the world record October 17th
Stand Up action, and the October 24th 350 Global Day of Action.
The world is at a tipping point. By acting together we can tip
it in the right direction.
