We need 60 seconds of your time to keep the Pacific Islands on the map!

Dear friends.

The United Nations climate change conference is now underway in Bali, Indonesia. We, the Australian youth need 60 seconds of your time to help
keep the Pacific Islands on the map. We have met with many Pacific Islanders over the week and their emotional pleas make the urgency of the situation clear. Small island nations are
already suffering the impacts of climate change, with sea level rise innundating countries like Kiritbati, which are a maximum of two metres above sea level. It is these countries that have contributed the least to climate change, yet are suffering the worst effects.
We can secure the Pacific Islands a place on the map if we look to the future now. Australia needs to make deep cuts in its emissions and to support its neighbors.

Here’s what we want you to do:
Email us a simple message of support for the Pacific Islander people to australianyouthdelegation@gmail.com or join our Facebook group ‘Keep the Pacific Islands on the map’ and leave a wall post. The Australian Youth Delegation here in Bali will be presenting these messages of support to a group of Pacific Islanders here in Bali on WEDNESDAY 12 th December.
If we get over 2000 messages we will present them to the Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd; we will call for deep cuts in Australia’s emissions.

This is a great way to show your support for action on climate change and for climate justice.

Please email your letters to us NOW!

Thanks,
Australian Youth in Bali!
