Climate Change - Support The Passage of Bill C-311

PEJ News - This bill called for 25% reductions in greenhouse emissions by 2020 and 80% by 2050 and was blocked by Conservative members. The Liberals asked for 30 day extension which makes it too late for the Copenhagen global climate treaty negotiations.

Harper plans to take the old Bush position of blocking the treaty. We need to push the Liberals to get the bill passed ASAP. Here are some actions you can take:

These three are on the Environment Committee:

David McGuinty - Liberal, Email: McGuiDa@parl.gc.ca

Ruby Dhalla - Liberal, Email: DhallR@parl.gc.ca

Francis Scarapaleggia - Liberal, Email: ScarpF@parl.gc.ca

Also Contact:

Michael Ignatieff - Liberal Leader, IgnatM@parl.gc.ca

Stephen Harper - Prime MinisterLeader, pm@pm.gc.ca

The big question here is: Is blocking progress on resolving the global warming issue equivalent to a crime against humanity?
