September 28: Come Spoil Bush's Sham Climate Conference

A worthwhile event if you are based in or around washington DC. The only thing that i know about this event is that the UK arent planning to send a minister, let alone the PM. It looks like a bit of a farce. (Via Climate and Capitalism)

Sponsored by: Chesapeake Climate Action Network, U.S. Climate Emergency Council, Oil Change International, Greenpeace, Friends of the Earth, and U.S. Climate Action Network.

In a clearly manipulative move, George Bush is inviting top leaders from around the world to Washington, D.C. on Sept. 27th and 28th to officially convey his "deep concern" about global warming. His proposed fix: more useless "voluntary" measures and huge subsidies for "clean coal" and nuclear energy. The event is clearly meant to undermine real international efforts now underway to achieve mandatory greenhouse gas cuts under the Kyoto process.

Protest this cynical conference on September 28th from noon-1:00 p.m. in Washington DC.

Top ministers and heads of state from around the world will be attending Bush's conference as well as a great concentration of national and international media. We need to show up and loudly proclaim our own message: George Bush doesn't speak for us! We want real climate action now!
