Time to act, again!:

I just signed an emergency petition trying to help save the climate talks going on right now, and it would be great if you could join me. The most important global warming meeting since Kyoto is happening right now in Bali. 192 countries are meeting to discuss what comes next - but they're in crisis.
Negotiators were nearing agreement on cuts by 2020--a step which the scientists say is needed to avert the worst ravages of global warming, and which will help to bring China and the developing world onboard. But then the news broke: the US, Canada and Japan rejected any mention of such cuts.
We can't let three governments hold the world to ransom, by vetoing a real solution to the climate crisis. Bali is the opportunity we've been waiting for to start working toward real climate action, and we can't let it pass by.
The campaign will be delivered direct to summit delegates, through stunts and in media advertisements, so our voices will actually be heard. But we need a lot of us, fast, to join in if we're going to make a difference. Just click on the link to add your own name now:

Thanks!
PS Avaaz, the organisation hosting the petition, are very serious -- they host the Fossil Awards held by hundreds of NGOs at the summit
