Please Sign This Petition ASAP: Governments WTF?

Why is it the only people that don’t seem to get the urgency of the situation are our elected (so you don’t count Mr Brown) leaders? Avaaz is a lobbying group, and this is a good one to raise.

Climate negotiations in Bali are in crisis. Things were looking good till now: near-consensus on a delicate deal, including 2020 targets for rich countries, in return for which China and the developing world would do their part over time. IPCC scientists have said such targets are needed to prevent catastrophe. But Japan, the US and Canada are banding together to wreck the deal, and the rest of the world is starting to waver…

We can’t let three stubborn governments throw away the planet’s future. We have until the end of Friday to do everything we can. Please sign our emergency global petition below — we’ll deliver it through stunts at the summit, a full-page ad in the Financial Times in Asia, and directly to country delegates to stiffen their nerve against any bad compromise. Add your name to the campaign below now!

Please just go sign the petition. Remember: small things can make a difference, when you add them up. We need to Step it Up folks.
