Establishing Partnership for Change is my personal
contribution to raising public awareness and increasing
understanding of the risks of climate change. It aims to
foster climate leadership within the community, strengthen
links between politicians, professionals, institutions, the
public and private sector to address the single most
important crises facing humanity; climate change.
The recent United Nations Climate Change conference in
Copenhagen was a enormous opportunity to set in place an
international agreement to help prevent catastrophic climate
change. Copenhagen failed to agree a fair, effective and
legally binding agreement. Our political leaders and
governments failed to grasp the enormity of the implications
of climate change and powerful lobby groups were successful
in protecting the interests of industry over people and the
planets ecosystems.
The challenges remain immense, the next few years are
crucial to limiting the worse impacts of climate change.
Scientists, engineers, educationalists, planners,
politicians, private citizens; all of us must mobilise and
work together to inform, educate and demand urgent change.
This website provides information on climate change,
including a virtual library of important documents, links to
other organisations, news and publications. I hope that you
will join the PFC network and work with us in building a
better future. We are all our future has to work with and
each of us will make a difference in deciding that future,
it is up to us. We are all part of the problem of climate
change and global warming, together we can be part of the
solution.
