Hundreds of Thousands of Canadians Call for Urgent Action on Climate Change
On the opening day of the Copenhagen Climate Summit, 152,843 Canadians have signed the KYOTOplus petition and 120 organizations have called for a sustainable Canada. On the same day as the presentation of the KYOTOplus petitions in Copenhagen over 10 million petition signatures from the Tck Tck Tck campaign were delivered to United Nations representatives. KYOTOplus calls on the Canadian government to set a national target to cut greenhouse gas emissions at least 25 percent from 1990 levels by 2020 and to implement an effective national plan to reach this target. The petition also calls for Canada to help developing countries to reduce their emissions and adapt to climate change.
