Pink Heart Remote Things Remembered

Save the climate now!

So today is our common motto, as I sit down with our partners in Cameroon and Michel Masum from Bangladesh and 150 international protesters at 6.30 clock in the train from Poznan to Warsaw. Our common goal that day is the presidential palace in the Polish capital. There are meeting today Angela Merkel, Donald Tusk, to their strategy to weaken the EU climate package in favor of the industry prior to final approval on Friday to vote.

Supported by the Polish Green Party, Greenpeace, WWF and Friends of the Earth / BUND we protested in Warsaw against the destructive attitude Donald Tusk and Angela Merkel and show the two heads of government that the NGO community in Poznan know exactly who should take the lead for the further development of the climate negotiations. It is the EU and particularly the German chancellor, who has changed within a month under intense pressure from industry lobby of the former pioneer of climate protection to the patroness of industrial interests. Accordingly, the focus of the demonstration is also a poster that is running the "Air Queen" Merkel "climate killer" demoted. But Tusk should not adhere to the coal. It represents 93% of the Polish energy needs. Thus, Poland has one of the highest CO2-emissions per Capita in Europe.

call with chants we Tusk and Merkel to adopt the EU's climate package with lofty goals and as our planet, while helping the economy. For tackling climate change is not a useless burden, but a highly profitable investment in the future and our economy. must act

Therefore, the EU finally and especially Merkel and Tusk to abandon its unilateral policy and coal may no longer bow to pressure from the industry. For the world's climate needs now finally committed action!
