From: KlimaForum09 - Peoples Climate Summit
Background:
The fear is that the official climate deal likely to come out the UN conference in Copenhagen will be focused on »technological fixes« and biased towards the interests of the corporate lobby and the rich and powerful nations.
During the fall of 2009 the Klimaforum09-declaration group invited civil society groups, grassroots, indigenous people, and local communities from all over the world to come forth with ideas and solutions rooted in their local experience with climate change.
The actual declaration finalized during the first four days of Klimaforum09 has given the participants a possibility to influence the process.
