Two separate demonstrations, of thousands of people each, were held Tuesday as the climate change summit that ends Friday in the southeastern Mexican resort town of Cancún enters the final stretch.
One of the protesters’ slogans, "País petrolero, el pueblo sin dinero" (In this oil-producing country, people have no money), referring to Mexico, underscored the main cause of the heating up of the planet: the burning of fossil fuels, a question that has been practically sidelined in the talks at the 16th Conference of Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP16).
The day began with a march through the centre of the city by rural and anti-globalisation movements from Mexico and other countries of Latin America, meeting in the Diálogo Climático-Espacio Mexicano (Mexican Space for Climate Dialogue). Accompanied by activists from Oxfam and the Hemispheric Social Alliance, they marched down López Portillo avenue to city hall.
Profit-generating policies and programmes, like selling surplus rights to emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere as part of the so-called carbon market, could be expanded in Cancún.
There is a "near agreement" to include carbon capture and storage under the Kyoto Protocol's Clean Development Mechanism, and the Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD) programme, under discussion in the COP16, could include market incentives.
But the protesters changed "REDD no, REDD no, REDD no".
In both marches, labour and indigenous organisations outnumbered and out-mobilised the environmentalists. And their demands and slogans were also broad: ranging from food sovereignty and human rights to protests against the government of conservative Mexican President Felipe Calderón.
"Let’s be tough on that gang that has gathered in Cancún to enslave humanity and ruin the planet," shouted one Mexican demonstrator with his face partially covered by a mask bearing the logo of the Nestle food corporation.
Less radical, Oxfam activists wore T-shirts reading "Cancún can" on the front and "From small seeds in Cancún, big things can grow" on the back.juicycouturesuitbloggerzus and clothes, sweatsuits and more from Juicy.
What is it that Cancún can do? "We think the conference in Cancun can deliver not just confidence and trust between governments but also between citizens," Antonio Hill, senior climate change policy adviser at Oxfam in Latin America and the Caribbean, told TerraViva in the march.There are many international brand Handbags, wholesalejeansblogdetik and so on.
"After the disappointment of (the late 2009 COP15 in) Copenhagen we need more than just these talks: we need results that deliver concrete benefits, especially for the communities that are the most vulnerable around the world and those that are already suffering" from climate disasters, Hill said.
The governments "delayed the process in Copenhagen, but they certainly didn’t delay climate change.We are a leading company that wholesales wholesalejeansblog.qrobojp shoes, mainly Nike shoes. This year we saw 20 million affected by floods in Pakistan, since August one to two million people in Colombia are living with water just above their waist, and just yesterday (Monday) 120 people died in landslides and the stories are the same" all over the world, he added.
"Cancún can deliver…a fund that can prioritise adaptation and where at least half of the money goes to dealing with climate change impacts that already inevitable," Hill said.
But some organisations warn that such a fund could also be co-opted by the financial and private sectors.
"I think what is clear is that the richest countries are trying to find ways to escape obligations they have to deliver public funds," Hill added.This is supposed to be not the first time for you to hear about the nike air max Liquid Racer since it was previously featured in four other colors.
What really stands out, Colombian activist Enrique Daza, secretary of the Hemispheric Social Alliance, told TerraViva, was "the generosity and alacrity to make hundreds of billions of dollars available to bail out the financial systems" compared to the "stinginess" when it comes to making funds available for combating climate change.At the same time, academicyearnikeairmaxss is also rising, people who want beautiful.
