ACT NOW: EUROPE MUST BACK KYOTO!

*LOBBY EUROPEAN LEADERS TO STAND FIRM ON CLIMATE
- EMAIL EURO PRESIDENT ROMANO PRODI NOW!*

In March the US announced they would pull out of the Kyoto Protocol -
the ONLY international treaty on action to cut greenhouse gas emissions
and stop climate change.THIS THURSDAY, US President George W Bush will
meet with European leaders and will try to push a new US proposal on
climate.Europe must stand firm on the Kyoto Protocol - it's taken
10 years of negotiations to get this far - we need action NOW!

Last year's climate talks broke down due to US demands for loopholes>in the Kyoto treaty.European negotiators had argued for stronger
action to protect our climate.Europe must now ensure the Kyoto
agreement comes into force with or without the US!

*ACT NOW!*EMAIL European Commission President *ROMANO PRODI*,
plus European heads Goran Persson and Guy Verhofstadt and demand REAL
action on climate change.

EASY ACTION: You'll find a letter to Prodi, Persson and Verhofstadt at:

3 Upprop mot EU:s WTO-politik .Friends of the Earth England, Wales and
Northern Ireland

Ronnie Hall, FoE (England, Wales and N Irland) wrote 01-05-25:

"Dear friends

Here is the final version of a joint NGO statement calling on the EU to
withdraw its proposal for a new WTO round. It has been put together by
the European 'From Seattle to Brussels' network and will be launched
during the next EU Trade Ministers' meeting (which was delayed from May,
date as yet unknown, but probably very soon).

It would be good if we could start collecting signatures as soon as
possible, both inside and outside the EU, so if your group wishes
to sign please let me know (I will be coordinating the sign-ons). Please
pass it on to your contacts too.
