G8 Plus Five Climate Summit, coming October 3-4 to Mexico!


Please communicate urgently to g8(AT)risingtidenorthamerica.org (english) OR justiciaclimatica06(AT)gmail.com (español) to help mobilize grassroots international action for climate justice countering the first G8 + 5 Summit on Climate Change: October 3-4 in Mexico! With the dates revealed by a European Union source (PDF), this critically "strategic" meeting will bring together the Energy and Environment Ministers from all the G8 Countries (United States, Canada, England, Japan, Germany, Russia, Italy and France) plus the Energy and Environment Ministers from five "emerging" countries: Mexico, Brazil, India, China and South Africa. The G8 + 5 leaders will meet October 3-4 in Mexico City to begin negotiating the next (i.e., post-Kyoto) international agreement addressing climate change. But their agenda focuses on corporate-friendly "carbon trading" to privatize and commodify the atmosphere! Radical action is necessary to prevent global climate catastrophe, not more subsidies to the fossil fuel industries responsible for the global warming crisis!
