Shared Planet 2009
This is no ordinary year, a general election is on its way, a new climate deal is being decided in Copenhagen and the dust kicked up by the economic crisis is still settling. This year has huge potential for positive change, but are politicians listening to our calls for action or desperately trying to patch up the damage and continue with ‘business as usual’? Its our future they are gambling with, so, at Shared Planet they will be answering to us! Introducing:
