September 8-9, leaders of 21 nations- responsible for half the world's greenhouse gases- meet at the APEC summit in Sydney, Australia. Some leaders support binding global targets which experts agree are needed to avert climate catastrophe. Others are campaigning for a weak voluntary alternative: hot air and hope. </DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.avaaz.org/en/apec_petition/j.php?cl=17590498"><DIV>
<B>This is already the biggest global climate petition, but we need more signatures to win over waverers and save the next Kyoto Protocol -- please, add your name today!</B> At the summit, we're sending the petition to leaders and negotiators and mounting ‘target’ spectacles in Sydney, the Great Barrier Reef and all round the world. <B>We will be heard.</B>  </DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.avaaz.org/en/apec_petition/j.php?cl=17590498"><B>Petition To World Leaders:</B>
Climate change is the greatest threat facing our world today - and we are almost out of time to stop it.
You must tackle this problem now, decisively and together. Start working toward a new global agreement this year.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.avaaz.org/en/apec_petition/j.php?cl=17590498"><DIV class="box384blueheader"><TABLE><TBODY><TR><TD><IMG src="http://www.avaaz.org/images/boxnumber1.gif" /> </TD><TD>Sign the Petition</TD> </TR></TBODY></TABLE> </DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/81D978FD-6EE8-4AE6-ACF7-CDCDB519D8C7/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
