Onwards, to Poznan
|

The next big big big meeting will be CoP-14 in Poznan, Poland this December. Here the big Transformer (to borrow my metaphor from last week) will come together to battle the evil forces of climate change. It's legs (AWG-KP and AWG-LCA) and it's arms (SBSTA and SBI) should be familiar components to you all by now!
In the interim there will be a key meeting of the AWGs in Accra, Ghana this August. They have pushed a lot of work there from this session, so it will be a veeeeery long week! We hope to be there in some capacity to be able to share with you the struggles and stories and hopefully successes on the road to Poznan and (eventually) Copenhagen
Poznan will be momentously important. In a few weeks, the Canadian Youth Climate Coalition, in partnership with TakingITGlobal will be formally launching applications to join the Canadian Youth Delegation to this meeting. For more information stay tuned, and don't hesitate to contact us. We will be working very closely with other youth delegations and hope to make a very big impact.
For now, thank you VERY MUCH for reading. It has truly been a pleasure, and I hope this has been useful.
Klimaliebe fur alle,
-PJ
