KlimaForum09: The People's Climate Summit (Video)

While there may be some question about who will attend the UN Climate Change Conference, and what they will accomplish,  you can be sure that the public will have an opportunity to discuss climate change in Copenhagen at the KlimaForum09.

Billed as The People's Climate Summit, the free event will simultaneously take place only a few blocks from the UN gathering, and will feature guest speakers (including Naomi Klein!), over 150 open debates, 60 exhibitions, as well as music, film and art concerning climate change.  KlimaForum09 provides an open space for ordinary citizens, grassroots movements and organizations to develop constructive solutions to the climate crisis.  Special efforts have been made to invite people from countries that are and will be most directly affected by climate change, and who have limited opportunities to participate in the global discussion. 

I'm really excited to see what ideas arise from parallel climate summit events like KlimaForum09, and I'll continue to keep you up to date on them as the events approach. Watch the video below for a guided tour through the facilities that will host KlimaForum09 and use the Act link to find out how you can get involved.
