Special welcome awaits leaders flying down to Copenhagen
Posted by jamie on 4 December 2009.
With world leaders and his/her partner of unspecified gender arriving in Copenhagen over the next few days, it's the perfect time to grab their attention and focus their minds on the task ahead. Particularly as most are funnelled through one small area, namely Copenhagen airport.
It's a fair bet that many key people will be arriving by air (even those European leaders from countries well connected to Copenhagen by train) and the route into and through the airport has become one long mantra on saving the climate.
The Greenpeace ship Beluga is positioned in the Öresund outside the airport sporting a giant banner which can be clearly seen from the air as delegates fly in. As you can see, the message is stark and simple: "Stop climate change here".
Once inside the airport, delegates will pass by several large adverts with images of what our world leaders might look like come 2020 and the frank admissions they may be forced into if the climate deal gets fudged. You can see Brown and Obama below, but Rudd, Medvedev, Harper, Sarkozy, Tusk, Merkel, da Silva and Zapatero have also been given the same predictive treatment.
Greetings from the Beluga II
I'm right under the banner now.
We are back in the warmth of the Beluga after a tiring few days in the wind, rain and cold setting things up. It's great to be here taking action rather than sitting listening to those who are doing nothing.
Climate change stops here!
Hello from the Rainbow Warrior
We've been taking is slowly, and making advantage of the wind to sail across the North Sea. We should be in Oslo tomorrow and then Copenhagen within the week.
Fingers crossed for some world leaders who can see beyond the next election, Change the Politics, Save the Climate....
Reduce carbon dioxide
By growing easy to grow crops where there is little vegetation and using a grow then burn then grow more method, rather than coal, carbon dioxide can be reduced.
Growing (reduces CO2) and burning (increases CO2) is carbon neutral. Digging up coal and burning it increases CO2.
