Climate change is a global issue that will affect all of us. If we work together and take immediate action we can stop dangerous climate change. Industrialised countries need to reduce greenhouse pollution by 20% by 2020, and by 80% by the middle of the century, if we are to combat climate change.

The key ways to avoid dangerous climate change are:

• Set legally binding targets to reduce our climate change pollution
• Switch to renewable energy sources, like solar and wind power, and move away from dirty coal.
  
• Set energy efficiency targets to ensure we use energy wisely.
  
• Shift from private cars to public transport.
  
• Stop broad scale land clearing.

We have the technology to reduce our greenhouse pollution. Our government needs to ratify the Kyoto Protocol and legislate targets to reduce our greenhouse pollution for this potential to become reality.
