Together with a wide coalition of civil society groups, Greenpeace worked tirelessly &#8211; under the banner of the Global Campaign for Climate Action (GCCA), of which we were a founding member &#8211; to generate the public interest and pressure needed to make the those talks a success.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That pressure compelled some 120 Heads of State to turn up for one of the largest gatherings of world leaders ever. Yet despite the clear public call for a Fair, Ambitious and legally-Binding (FAB) climate deal, all they produced was a feeble three-page Copenhagen Accord.<\/p>\n<p>It is now clear that the only way big changes are going to happen is if civil society takes the power and compels politicians and business leaders to act. We\u00a0<em>must<\/em>\u00a0have a say in what our future and the future of our children will look like. We\u00a0<em>must<\/em>\u00a0make political and business leaders understand that, if they do not act to avert climate chaos, they will be replaced. And to achieve this, we\u00a0<em>must<\/em>\u00a0protect the right to non-violent protest.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-international-stateless\/2018\/11\/1f27c590-greenpeace_international_annualreport2009.pdf\">Read the full report<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>December 2009 &#8211; the UN&#8217;s Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, where the talks were meant to avert catastrophic climate change. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":19652,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_planet4_optimize_post_is_variant":false,"_planet4_optimize_experiment_name":"","_planet4_optimize_variant_name":"","ep_exclude_from_search":false,"p4_og_title":"","p4_og_description":"","p4_og_image":"","p4_og_image_id":"","p4_seo_canonical_url":"","p4_campaign_name":"","p4_local_project":"","p4_basket_name":"","p4_department":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[100],"tags":[79],"p4-page-type":[62],"class_list":["post-19711","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-about","tag-about-us","p4-page-type-publication"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19711","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/18"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19711"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19711\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19733,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19711\/revisions\/19733"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19652"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19711"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19711"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19711"},{"taxonomy":"p4-page-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/p4-page-type?post=19711"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
