ACTION ALERT UPDATE PLEASE FORWARD WIDELY! CLIMATE ALERT! Tell World Leaders Urgent Climate Change Action Cannot Wait for a Return to Hyper-Economic Growth
By Ecological Internet's Climate Ark, http://www.climateark.org/ October 5, 2008 TAKE ACTION Climate change and the bad economy are both symptoms of the same growth-based "ecological bubble". Tell governments to urgently address climate change despite the economic downturn, as both Wall Street and Main Street must realize that without ecosystems there can be no economy http://www.climateark.org/shared/alerts/send.aspx?id=ecological_bubble Wall Street's sickness of growth at any cost, and its damage to both the world economy and global ecosystems, is bad news for already faltering efforts to craft a new international climate change treaty. Tighter budgets and worries about jobs will surely be used at upcoming UN talks as excuses by governments hesitant to make the sacrifices necessary to avoid looming abrupt and run-away climate change. Current global economic difficulties must not stop urgent ecological measures -- like dramatic emissions reduction and natural habitat protection and restoration -- necessary to maintain a habitable Earth. The global growth machine is seizing up because it is hitting ecological and economic limits, and because of its own greed. We must demand world leaders not ignore looming apocalyptic global ecosystem collapse, in a vain effort to return to unsustainable and inequitable economic growth which caused the problems in the first place. This is a last warning, after which all men and women of good conscience and clear minds must commit to escalating "people power" resistance to bring about the necessary changes to ensure a continuation to being and a livable Earth. Tell world government below that climate change is a deadly fact, action cannot be delayed and its solution will help, not harm the economy. TAKE ACTION NOW: http://www.climateark.org/shared/alerts/send.aspx?id=ecological_bubble P.S. After sending the alert please continue to participate in the other numerous and on-going ecological protest campaigns, particularly the FSC campaign which is at a critical juncture.
