Stop climate change

Dear friends and colleagues,

I thought you would be interested in a op-ed published yesterday by AlterNet from Venezuela’s climate negotiator, Claudia Salerno. You can find it at the following link as well as in text form below: http://www.alternet.org/environment/148733/we_must_stop_climate_change_and_we_can_do_it_in_cancun

I also had the opportunity to speak with her after a panel discussion,”the Coalition Between Governments of the Global South and Environmentalists,” at the Washington D.C. Green Festival. Ms. Salerno is passionate about climate justice to say the least. Watch what she has to tell the U.S. American people here: (starting at second 40)

I promise it’s hopeful.
