Copenhagen Summit - Good Parenting (Youtube Young Lions, Cannes submission 2009)

This video has been made for Oxfam GB as part of the YouTube Cannes Young Lions Ad Contest.

December 2009 will see 192 world leaders meeting under the UN to create a new treaty for the world to follow, to secure the environment from irreversible climate change.

Copenhagen Summit will be an historic event as it not only seeks to replace Kyoto Protocol but also persuade the countries that had not signed Kyoto Protocol to do so this time round.

More about the summit at http://en.cop15.dk/

You do not need to know everything about environmental hazards to support the summit and demand, as world citizens, better legal / infrastructural / financial framework to secure life for future generations. There's hardly anyone who'd say the environment is not in danger. If you're not that person, then sign up today at www.oxfam.org.uk/climateaction and push for a better tomorrow.

Everytime a power has become centralised it has led to a dictatorship or damn close to. Yes, I agree we need to stop littering and tougher laws need to be in place for things such as toxic waste, but we don't need a centralised world government dictating our economies cause just like the US Federal Government, it can and WILL spin out of control. You all need to wake up and realise you are being conned into giving up your fundamental freedoms for an eventual global dictatorship.

But you got to understand, this carbon tax bull is going to make so many things unaffordable to the middle and lower classes when we are already in an economic crisis. It's transfering our wealth to third world countries that have dictators in them. This is all a scam set in place by very crafty masterminds way above Al Gore, he is just a puppet. They have been planning this for years and use YOUR fear as their weapon so you give up your liberties for security. Yet take a look at history,

Okay, newsflash people. And if you disagree with what I say, look it up for yourself.

This is giving far too much power to a one world government over something that has scientifically proven to be a hoax. NASA confirmed that all the planets are getting hotter except Mercury. Why? The sun is getting hotter. The sun has CYCLES just as Earth does. Mt. Kiliminjaros ice has been melting for over 100 years, way before this carbon stuff came in. I know you all want to see a great change here people,

Admirable effort, Deepika.

For us in India, its tempting to dismiss the issue of Climate Change as yet another poster child of the "developed" nations,

since they are not plagued by seemingly pressing issues like poverty and basic health facilities.

Its important for developing nations to appreciate the urgency of the situation, and realize that both efforts need to go hand in hand.
