Numbers
make a difference. Please read this and send a quick email. We're on
the countdown to Copenhagen -- and some politicians (mostly Canadian)
are saying we can't get an agreement on climate change.



So I’ve joined with David Suzuki Foundation supporters and millions of
people all over the world who want world leaders—i...ncluding Canada’s
Prime Minister Harper —to sign an ambitious, fair and binding agreement
to safeguard our future at the crucial UN climate change summit in
Copenhagen this December.


Last week over 3,500 Canadians sent messages to our political leaders. Help us reach our goal of doubling that number.

Numbers count!

To send your message, go to: http://davidsuzuki.kintera.org/ClimateSummit/



For the sake of the health of our economy, environment and future,
please take a minute to send your message to Canada’s Prime Minister
and opposition leaders in the House of Commons today.

Montreal Gazette just reviewed my book: "I have a huge pile of recently-published environmental books on my desk, and most of them, quite frankly, are major downers. But I just picked up Bothered by My Green Conscience...and read it cover to cover in one 20-minute sitting. It is a funny, moving, and inspiring read even... though it deals with a topic that usually depresses the hell out of me; climate change."

Franke James Check out the great review of Bothered by My Green Conscience Woman.ca:
"In a non-preachy and humorous fashion, Franke’s book explains how she made big decisions that were suitable to her lifestyle and in turn significantly reduced her personal contribution to environmental waste and damage. Franke’s advice: 'do the hardest thing first.'"
