Biggest Day of Climate Action in History
On Saturday October 24th Greenpeace joined 350.org to mobilize people around the world for the October 24th International Day of Climate Action. At events all over the country, from St. Louis’ iconic arch to a coal plant in Chicago, thousands of Greenpeace activists joined in warnings of rising sea levels, demonstrations of how coal is bad for communities as well as climate, and marches for climate leadership at iconic structures and government buildings.

Dear Student Network, Last week was quite a bummer with Copenhagen, but today I want to share a success story and something truly amazing about environmental leadership in the US...

Greenpeace Student Network Each and every one of us [...] must take the struggle to avert climate catastrophe into every level of politics, local, regional, national and international. We also need to take it into the board room and onto the high streets. We can either work for a fundamental change in our society or we can suffer the consequence...s of one. - Kumi Naidoo, Greenpeace International Executive Director
Greenpeace Student Network Video from "Climate Shame" rally early Saturday morning in Copenhagen and interview with 350.org founder Bill McKibben
www.youtube.com
350.org founder and author, Bill McKibben offers his perspective of the end of the Copenhagen climate talks amidst a rousing rally to shame world leaders for not stepping up to the plate with a real deal.
Dear Student Network, We've been talking about the final showdown in Copenhagen for the entire semester, but what we've seen these past two weeks has been bewildering, a disappointment...
Greenpeace Student Network CALL RIGHT NOW the Office of the US Climate Envoy, ask for science-based negotiations from President Obama 202-647-9873!
From Brinkley Hutchings. Our Student Network activist on the ground in Copenhagen! I’ve been asked if I still had hope going into this last day of the Copenhagen International Climate Negotiations. Definitely. Yes. I did. ...

EAC asks you to do a sit-in at your senator's office for a fair and binding treaty:
With 48 hours left in the Copenhagen negotiations, the pressure is
building. More than 11 million people have signed a petition for a real deal, and demonstrations and vigils continue around the world.
Yesterday, young people took a bold s...tep to bring these voices to
the negotiations as youth from 14 countries sat down in the Bella
Center and refused to leave as they read the names of the 11 million
people who had signed the petition for a fair, ambitious and binding
agreement.
We need this level of action around the US. Between now and Saturday
there are two things that you can do to help us step it up in the
homestretch:
Organize your own sit-in at your Senators office
and read the names of people who have signed the petition for a real
deal. You can find that list here.
Call
President Obama before he leaves for Copenhagen and urge him to
strengthen emissions reductions targets to what the science demands.
To make that call and find some tips on what to say click here.
The negotiations remain in deadlock largely because the US has not
stepped up to the plate with the ambition that young people are
demanding and that science dictates. Thanks to the advocacy by you and
hundreds of thousands of people around the world, Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton announced that the US would join others in securing a
$100 billion fund to help developing countries if an agreement can be
reached on a "substantive political accord" that would include
transparency in tracking emissions cuts by major developing countries.
The announcement was a pleasant surprise and we're working hard to
clarify the specifics of how it will be executed, but it is still less
than what developing countries are rightfully calling for. Likewise,
the emissions reductions targets that the Obama Administration has put
on the table - at 17% of 2005 levels - are far behind the approximately
35% of 1990 levels that most of the rest of the world is pledging. We
must call for more.
We have one last opportunity to influence these negotiations. We
need everyone - Obama, the Senate and the public - to know that world
is looking to the US for leadership.
Will you join us? We've got more information and materials at www. powershift09.org/copenhagen.
These next two days our critical, we need to throw everything we
have into them, but also remember that it doesn't end here. No matter
what happens in Copenhagen it will be up to grassroots leaders to build
the movement for a just and sustainable future.

It's game time, Obama! Please meet w/ youth leaders, give a national address on climate & attend Copenhagen.
