GGJ-IEN hosting Delegation of 22 people to the World People's Conference on Climate Change, Cochabamba April 19-22

With the US and European countries pushing carbon offset trading as a primary “solution” to the climate crisis, social movements are stepping up coordination to oppose this dangerous approach and to make a collective push for stricter binding carbon reductions, reparations for industrial-driven environmental destruction, and a human rights approach to climate policies.

Do you Oppose Land Grabs and Carbon Offset Trading? Join IEN - SIGN ON to the Durban Group for Climate Justice Statement

*No REDD! No REDD Plus!

(*/Español e Português /**/abajo)/*)
