Attention global youth!
(and Climate Change Action Members)
In less than 24 hours, hundreds of members of youth networks around the world
are meeting with the chair of the biggest international climate negotiations in
a decade--and they need our help to make sure they are heard!
Right now in Bali, Indonesia, 192 governments are at the UN negotiating a new
international climate agreement. By next week, they will either agree to launch
urgent negotiations for a new global treaty that can finally avert this crisis,
or the summit will fail. Young people are the biggest stakeholders in climate
change and we have the most to lose at Bali. The youth delegates will deliver
messages from young people around the world at their meeting tomorrow. We need a
massive show of young voices – in the next 24 hours -- to leaders in Bali to
take bold climate action now.
If you haven't sent a message already, click on the link below, and then tell
all your friends!

Subject: Thanks for taking action
Thank you for sending a critical message to your leader and joining with young
people around the world to build a global youth climate movement.
Climate change is the major challenge of our time, and we're the ones who will
have to bear the brunt of its impacts.
It’s time for our voices to be heard at the negotiating table. Let’s turn
this global movement into a global roar so that politicians can't ignore us.
Tell all your friends to join the global youth climate movement by sending a
message to their leaders using the link, below:
