From the global day (or was it week?) of action on climate change - activists block the entrance of the Czech Ministry of Environment with a wooden barrier carrying the messages

'canceled for inactivity' ,

'(ministry) protects polluters, not climate',

'closed due to incompetence'

We're reacting to the Ministry’s National Allocation Plan (NAP) with regards to CO2 emissions for years 2008-2012. The proposal allows an increase of the CO2 emissions in the Czech Republic by one quarter above the agreed figure - which means the ministry is failing to protect the climate.
