From the 7th of December 2009 in Copenhagen, a small assembly of individuals will gather at United Nations Climate Change Conference in an attempt to mitigate the biggest threat the human race has ever faced.
At home in Norfolk, we seek to inform the government of our awareness, of the local and global impacts of climate change: To remind them that Norfolk, the United Kingdom and the world will be watching and that the magnitude of their actions will be historically unparalleled.
The melt of the Greenland ice sheet is progressing faster then predicted. The International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) estimates that Greenland alone could contribute approximately 1 metre to global sea level by 2100. If Greenland were to completely vanish, sea levels would rise globally by approximately 5 to 6 meters; a sea level rise of just 1 metre would be catastrophic.
Precise details of future climate change are uncertain; what is certain, however, is that we are currently producing greenhouse gasses at a rate which is greater then has ever been predicted by the IPCC. Our destructive actions are causing an ecological loss of diversity, comparable to that which wiped out the dinosaurs, right now! Our consumerist, high energy lifestyle could not be more unsustainable.
