Welcome to the January 2010 issue of Think Global and take our urgent action on climate finance in Bangladesh.

We are campaigning in solidarity with the Equity and Justice Working group in Bangladesh and are calling on the UK government to rethink money for climate change adaptation going through the World Bank.  In addition we are demanding that this money is disbursed as grants, rather than as loans which will further add to Bangladesh's debt burden. 

Download the template letter below and write to Douglas Alexander.

 

 

Welcome to the December issue of Think Global.  This month we give you updates on our campaign plans for 2010; alongside the latest developments on new coal, more on our climate debt campaign, and information about what's going on in the world of European trade. 

Over the next month, WDM staff will be travelling both to Geneva to stand in solidarity with those protesting against the WTO, and to Copenhagen to demand a just deal for the world's poorest people at the crucial climate talks.  Keep an eye on our website for up to the minute blogs from both these conventions. 

 

Time to celebrate; three campaign successes in one month!  Find out more in the November issue of Think Global. 

Though of course campaigners never have much time to sit back and relax so this month's issue is packed with campaign activities, stunts and events taking place over the next couple of months.  From our climate justice speaker tour, to WTO media stunts, to the Wave marches in December, there is much to plan for and get excited about. 

Welcome to the October issue of Think Global. This month's newsletter contains a round-up of coal related activities over the past month, plus information about our work focusing on climate debt (including details of the climate justice speaker tour in November) and the latest on MEP lobbying around trade. November also looks set to be a busy month stunt wise; we are encouraging our groups to hold both trade and climate justice and so the newsletter contains info for you to plan ahead. We have produced a survey for our individual activists (which can be completed online via Survey Monkey - you will find the link below). We would be very grateful if you could take a few minutes to complete this, it will be very useful to us in improving our communications with activists, and the way in which we develop the WTO network.
