CALL
TO ACTION!
Desmond Tutu is a South African
social rights activist, Nobel Peace Prize recipient and retired Anglican bishop
who rose to worldwide fame during the 1980s as an opponent of apartheid.
At the age of 83, despite some health
problems, he has taken up the cause of climate change by encouraging people all
over the world to sign a petition imploring our political leaders to take
assertive action.
“If we stay on our
current course, our world can expect to suffer more deadly storms, heat waves,
droughts, crop failures, water shortages, mass migration, and new threats to
our health and security.
This will hurt all
of us -- especially the hungry, the sick, the poor, and the excluded. The
people who benefited least from the burning of fossil fuels are already paying
a steep price.”
If you are concerned
about our degradation of the planet because of the burning of fossil fuels –
why not sign the petition!
