[greenlifestyle] OOT : dari 350.org : international day of climate action tanggal 10/10/10

Teman2 semua, Minal Aidin Wal Faidzin. Semoga lebaran dan liburannya berkesan.

Mau mengingatkan nih, gerakan global 350.org mau menggemakan kembali gerakan internasional untuk iklim bumi pada tanggal 10 Oktober 2010. Gerakan ini sudah diendorse oleh sekjen PBB Ban Ki Moon.

Yang perlu kita lakukan adalah mencari ide kegiatan di komunitas kita untuk tanggal 10 Oktober itu. Kegiatan kita (apapun bentuknya) bisa kita register di website 350.org supaya kita menunjukkan bahwa di tingkat lokal di seluruh dunia kita melakukan sesuatu untuk planet kita. Kita tunjukkan bahwa Indonesia peduli dan kita memang melakukan sesuatu. Info lanjut, apa itu 350.org bisa lihat di www.350.org

 

Salam hijau! Andy

Subject: What's missing?

 

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki Moon says "it's time for us to roll up our sleeves and get to work on October 10".  So make sure to start or join a 10/10/10 event near you. 

10/10/10 is shaping up to be the most widespread day of action on climate change EVER--but there are still 35 UN countries that don't have events.  Can you help spread the word to the missing 35?

Dear friends,

We've got some exciting news: Ban Ki Moon, Secretary General of the United Nations, just sent over the following endorsement for the 10/10/10 Global Work Party,

"It's time for us to roll up our sleeves and get to work on building the clean energy future that will generate economic opportunity and provide a better, safer, healthier world for our children. On October 10, I encourage everyone to do his / her part to be part of the solution to the climate challenge."

350.org is less than three years old, but thanks to your hard work, we've quickly grown into an international movement that's getting the attention of decision makers across the planet.  We didn't get solar panels put on the White House roof yet, but political leaders in every corner of the world are taking notice. 

After all, together we're hard to ignore: there are 10/10/10 events in almost every country on the planet.  Almost. The UN has 192 member nations. Right now, there are 10/10/10 events registered in an astounding 157 countries. That leaves just 35 missing countries where we need to register events to have work parties in all the countries in the UN.

Last year, many of you you helped organize climate rallies in 181 countries on October 24. CNN called your work, "the most widespread day of political action in the planet's history." That broad support for the goal of reducing CO2 below 350 ppm had a powerful effect -- 112 nations adopted the 350 target at the UN Climate Talks in Copenhagen.

Now, we want to see if we can make this movement even more widespread and show our so-called leaders that the entire planet is already hard at work solving the climate crisis, and that they better follow our lead.  You can help by reaching out to friends who may know someone in our 35 remaining countries and by getting to work in your own community.

Can you help recruit a new 10/10/10 event from one of the missing countries--or get involved in your own community?

The United Nations brings the world's governments together. Our movement can bring the world's people together. We may not have a fancy building in New York or a Security Council, but we've got the creativity, commitment, and compassion of hundreds of thousands of people--and the power of the Internet to help us work together like never before.

As Ban Ki Moon said, "It's time to roll up our sleeves." Let's get to work pulling in those 35 remaining countries and sign up even more work parties for 10/10/10.

Together, we'll show our nations what unity is all about,

P.S. Here's one more way to recruit people to join in on 10/10/10: a brand new video that paints a picture of what the world has--and what it needs.  Click here to check it out and spread it far and wide.
