Dec 12 - save the date, save the planet
Dear friends,
In just weeks our leaders will meet in Copenhagen to negotiate a global climate agreement -- without doubt the most important international treaty of our time.
But, even now, governments are backsliding on fair, ambitious and binding action that could stop climate catastrophe.
In September we sounded the alarm together across the world with our spectacular Global Wake Up Call and showed the strength of the public demand for climate action. Now it's time to double our efforts. That's why on December 12 we're holding the largest ever global day of climate action, with vigils in every corner of the earth.
Holding a vigil is fun, effective and easy. Simply click below to register a local event and check out our simple 5-step organising guide. Avaaz members nearby will be invited to attend.

Thousands of vigils across the world drawing attention to those already suffering climate disaster, right in the middle of the Copenhagen negotiations, will send a powerful political message that communities the world over won't accept greenwash -- we want a real climate deal.
Holding a vigil is very simple and the more of us that sign up to hold local actions, the more the media will see our global force and the more we will be heard at this crucial meeting -- a video of our vigils will be shown to negotiators at the meeting center in Copenhagen.
