Tree Trouble - A Compilation of Testimonies on the Negative Impact of Large-scale Monoculture Tree Plantations prepared for the sixth Conference of the Parties of the Framework Convention on Climate Change by Friends of the Earth International in cooperation with the World Rainforest Movement and FERN.

In 1992, governments acknowledged that climate change was real and that something needed to be done to avoid a major catastrophe. As a result, they signed and ratified the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Fifteen years have passed and the Convention’s Conference of the Parties will meet for its 13^th time in Bali, Indonesia, from 3-14 December 2007.

The 12th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Convention on Climate Change are having a meeting in Nairobi, Kenya, from 6 to 17 November. Unfortunately, this Convention has until now shown that human greed has prevailed over human intelligence, and has been dominated by interests that care too little about the environment and people and too much about money.

Here there are some message's on behalf of the people.

SPECIAL WRM BULLETINS FOCUSED ON CLIMATE CHANGE

Special Bulletin Nº 128 - March 2008 (complete version)
Life on Earth found its origin in water. And water continues to sustain all forms of life. This precious natural element has been respected and valued by all cultures except for the present dominant market-based culture which is increasingly converting water into a mere resource to be used and abused. Forests are a key component of the global water cycle. Forest degradation and destruction affects water reservoirs which together influence the earth’s climate. In turn, climate change is impacting on forests, water and people. The main drivers of deforestation  --transnational corporations-- by appropriating and destroying water and forests are putting at stake our common future on Earth. We intend this month’s bulletin serves as a tool to highlight these connections and raise local communities’ denounces.

Special Bulletin Nº 124 - November 2007 (complete version)
Climate change is not only already happening and impacting on the lives and livelihoods of millions of people, but is set to accelerate if actions to address the problem are not urgently implemented. The resulting extreme winds and temperatures, floods, droughts and rise in sea levels will affect increasing numbers of people, millions of which will be forced to migrate and become environmental refugees.

Special Bulletin Nº 76 - November 2003 (complete version)
This issue of the WRM bulletin is entirely focused on the crucial issue of climate change. Its aim is to provide people with relevant information and analysis as a means of empowerment to counter the false solutions being promoted by governments to suit the interest of corporations. Climate change is affecting us all and will affect future generations even more. Life on Earth is at stake and civil society must intervene to force governments to change course. We hope that the information contained in this bulletin will encourage people to include climate change in their social and environmental agendas in order to increase pressure for making true solutions possible.

Special Bulletin Nº 37 - August 2000 (complete version)
The Conference of the Parties of the Framework Convention on Climate Change -preceeded by a meeting of its Subsidiary Bodies in September in Lyon- will take place in The Hague in November. The obscure language used in the climate talks -and the even more obscure objectives of many governments and businesses- make it necessary to translate what's being negotiated into understandable concepts in order to facilitate very much needed public participation in the debate. As a contribution to that end, we have focused this issue of the WRM Bulletin entirely on this matter, of vital importance for the future of humanity as a whole.

Special Bulletin Nº 16 - October 1998 (complete version)
The Conference of the Parties (COP4) of the Climate Change Convention will be meeting during the first two weeks of November in Buenos Aires. Much of the discussion will concentrate on the role of forests as carbon sinks and many negotiations will include deals between Northern and Southern countries on how to trade emissions and sinks: we emit, you sink.

  The globe is warming. The more carbon dioxide pours into the air, the less stable the climate becomes and the more urgent it becomes to leave remaining fossil fuels in the ground. Yet the dominant neoliberal approach to the crisis -- carbon trading -- is failing. It is slowing social and technological change; dispossessing ordinary people in the South of their lands and futures; undermining already-existing positive approaches; and prolonging industrialised societies' dependence on fossil fuels. This book lays out the case and describes what can be done.
