Klimaforum Bonn: What next for climate protection? - Climate justice now!
The climate crisis is upon us. But despite widespread political claims of support for climate protection, the UN negotiations in Copenhagen collapsed. A breakthrough for just and effective climate protection is not in sight – either nationally or at the international level. Good reason for social movements and environmental groups worldwide to continue our efforts for climate justice.
On the occasion of UN climate talks in Bonn, the German section of Attac and the BUND (Friends of the Earth, Germany) in cooperation with Alliance Klimawelle (“Climate Wave”) Bonn are organizing the strategy and action conference Climate Forum Bonn. This alternative summit will continue the important work of the Climate Forum 09 during the Copenhagen Summit.
Attac and BUND organized the Klimaforum 2010 in association with Klimawelle Bonn on June 3rd and 4th 2010. To get an idea what the forum was about we will leave the program online, as well as we do offer you some pictures made on the confererence. On the same page you can find a link to the Klimaforum-Blog (in german language).
Thank you for taking part and/or being interested in Klimaforum 2010!
We must do it ourselves!
New Strategies for just and effective climate protection!
The conference took place at the Rheinisches Landesmuseum, Colmantstraße 14–16, Bonn, Germany, June 3-4, 2010

About Bündnis Klimawelle Bonn
BUND (Friends of the Earth) and Attac, in cooperation with the coalition Klimawelle, are organizing the Climate Forum in Bonn. At the beginning of 2010, members of regional and national groups as well as interested individuals came together in Bonn to counter the political inaction before and after Copenhagen. Under the name "Climate wave - action for climate responsibility and climate justice", they plan to accompany the negotiations with creative street protest and support networking among climate activists.
