Haka challenges leaders in Copenhagen

In the lead up to the UN climate change conference in Copenhagen, a huge haka is performed in New Zealand to challenge world leaders to seal a real climate deal - one that is fair, ambitious and binding.

The haka is led by world renowned kapa haka group Te Puru o Tamaki, with the audience joining in to take a stand for the sake of future generations and vulnerable people who are already struggling to cope with climate impacts that they did not cause. This is likely to be the largest ever haka performed.

This is very cool guys. You gotta love New Zealand. The warming side of things is not the issue.What the big problem is is the acidification of the sea from the Co2 poisoning

Why in the world should we save banks? Should we save every company that fails? My lemonade stand outside my house isn't turning a profit, bailout please.

What in the world do you mean by "We don't have a lot fo time?" We have all the time in the world. If you haven't noticed, there is a giant ball of fire in the sky that believe it or not has something to do with the heating and cooling of the earth. Don't be so arrogrant as to believe that you or me are having a detrimental effect on our planets temperature. Everyone I have met that has seen both sides of the argument agree that anthroprogenic global warmign is a joke, research it.

Your noble intent ,is being used against you,,..and twisted into just another form of control of the masses.

Africa NEEDS help ,..and they WONT get it from the New World Order,Who's quislings are now getting their instructions in Copenhagen.

Their main agenda is to depopulate,.

This "irrationality" will soon become more clear to you guys.

"...as a challenge to sign on to a real deal"

can you explain what are you talking about? what is your agenda?

have you not been reading what is going on in the world?

the science on the subject of climate change and global warming is not settled. recent scandals have show the data and graphs that the IPCC have based all their agenda on have been manipulated. c02 is what makes plants grow. it is not a pollution, and the planet it cooling and has been for the last few years.
