This December the whole world will be watching as global leaders meet in Copenhagen to build the framework for an international treaty to fight climate change. Boulder has been hosting some fantastic local events, like the FLASH MOB in the University of Colorado’s UMC Fountain area last Friday, and the Hope March on Pearl Street this Sunday, and I fully support them. As a student and member of the commonwealth deeply concerned about climate change, I hope that President Obama hears the growing number of voices from people across the country. We want President Obama be a strong and committed leader at these negotiations to move them forward. He’s said that climate change is a top priority for the Administration – this is his moment to prove that he knows just how dire the consequences of inaction will be. The rest of the world will follow what America does, and as a proud American, I want my country to lead us all down the right path. Right now is the best chance we have to show the world that we’re committed to being a part of the solution. President Obama, please be the leader the world needs.
Peace, Green & Love,
