COP15
Countdown to Copenhagen : Climate Change







Climate change is one of the most important ecological imperatives facing the human population in our modern times. There is hardly any debate remaining among scientists these days regarding whether climate change exists or whether it is caused by human activities. Climate change threatens not just global average temperature, but it also can play a damaging role in all other aspects of ecosystem health, such as biological diversity and world food supply. We have identified the problem, now we must come up with a fair and sustainable solution.

This blog will focus around the United Nations climate change conference to be help in Copenhagen from December 7th to 18th 2009. During this conference, 192 countries including two of the largest polluters - the United States and China - will gather to discuss the problem and try to find solutions. These widely varied countries will be responsible for the onus task of hammering out an agreement that can satisfy all involved for the period following 2012.

The countdown to COP15 TIG blog aims to consolidate the many youth climate action blogs from around the world, while offering a forum for youth to get informed and get involved regarding this important issue.

Love Stories at the United Nations

Once upon a time, Ann* and KP** were engaged.

They couldn’t live without each other. Ann needed KP to be safe and feel a sense of security, and to discipline herself to maintain a sustainable and green household.

On the other hand, KP would be nothing without Ann. KP needed Ann to carry out life targets and aims.

Yet, word had it that Ann was not ready to commit to the relationship. In fact, Ann had not been fulfilling the sweet promises between them.

At the same time, KP couldn’t wait forever. KP would leave Ann soon, or would eventually die of heartbreak.

It had been long suspected that the relationship will end soon, but things took a turn during the UN Bonn III meeting recently.

Ann and KP got married!!

But that was not all.
The day after the wedding was the last day of the AWG-KP Session.

During the session, a youth delegate asked the chair, “Will you marry me?“

Perhaps others would think she was being very demanding, but she was doing so not only for herself, but for the greater good.

“We can build commitment gradually, but it starts now with an adequate 2nd commitment
period with Annex I targets that follow the science to keep temperatures below 1.5°. So this means an aggregate target for Annex I Parties of at least -40% based on 1990, without offsets and loopholes, and a review of its adequacy.

“This means everybody must do their share.

“It means, we need them to make more ambitious targets public before we meet again.”

Nevertheless, she liked leaders who were decisive, and who could make the right choices.

“But time is not on our side, we need to order the cake.

“To do this we need a location, please tell us that we can send the cake to Cancun and hold the wedding ceremony there. Because I am young, I won’t, we can’t wait for you forever!”
For now, let’s watch closely how world leaders will respond to the proposal and demands!
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————-
True love needs commitment. Do we truly love our world, our people, and our future generations?

Will this end with ‘happily ever after’?

If yes, how long are we willing to make it last?
