TCK….TCK…TCK…..GREEN PARTY
CLIMATE EMERGENCY ACTION!
SUNDAY, 12/6 IN BROOKLYN

TELL PRESIDENT OBAMA:
“LEAD THE FIGHT AGAINST GLOBAL
WARMING IN COPENHAGEN -
STAND UP TO CLIMATE-COOKING
COAL CORPORATIONS!”

Please join The Green Party of Brooklyn, the
Park Slope Greens, Parents for Climate Protection
and other groups in Park Slope, Brooklyn, at 3pm on the
corner of 3rd St & 5th Ave – Sunday, Dec 6th to pledge
our community’s support for climate change legislation
that follows the demands of The EARTH, not big business.

* We’ll gather dozens of ice globes made by YOU and your
neighbors (go to www.gpbk.org to learn how to make them
or see what they look like) — and display them by
candlelight as the sun sets

* Pledge cards will be on hand so you can send a personal
message to the President that now is the time to save our
planet

* Local environmental activists and climate change experts
will be on hand to answer your questions and talk about what’s
next in the climate change movement

***

During his election campaign, Barack Obama promised to “restore
science” to the fight against global warming.*

But on November 25 the president proposed an emissions reductions
target of just 17% below 2005 levels by 2020, however this is just
a tiny fraction of what scientists says is needed. Now, as Obama
plans for his Dec 9 visit to Copenhagen, it’s time for us to let
him know we expect this country to join the European Union, Japan
and Great Britain in setting a target that will cut down the risks
of climate change on our future.

Now is not the time for small plans! The US is responsible for 30%
of the global warming pollution in our atmosphere today. Yet we are
just 5% of the world’s population. The U.S. coal industry alone emits
almost as much global warming pollution –8%– than India and Africa
combined - that’s 2.3 billion people! The U.S. must take responsibility
for our pollution.

Come to 3rd Street and 5th Avenue on December 6th, bring your ice globe,
and take a stand for our future! Email iceglobes@gpbk.org or call
718-369-2998 to tell us how many you’re bringing or if you have any questions.

*Science calls for the United States and the developed world to cut pollution
by at least 25 to 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2020, and to reduce greenhouse
gas emissions 80 to 95 percent by 2050.
