Tuesday, 08 of June 09, 9 – 10 a.m., Maritim Hotel, Bonn:
Banner rally in front of the Maritim Hotel against any attempt to finance nuclear power through market mechanisms like CDM/JI and technology transfer
Bonn, 08.06.2009 – With a spectacular action Ecodefense, Gendercc, Life and WECF e.V. - Women in Europe for a Common Future will call attention to their claim to keep out nuclear power from the Clean Development Mechanism as a possible solution to climate protection.
With banners, saying"No Nuclear in CDM, JI and technology transfer" and "More Equity in Climate Protection" the activists from Russia, Georgia, Germany and the USA will be standing in front of the Maritim Hotel, where the UNFCCC talks take place, and ask the delegates for an intelligent and sustainable use of climate change without nuclear power.
The protesters want to express their concerns that in the coming months, the world's governments will decide whether nuclear energy is a possible alternative for the CDM, the technology transfer, its successors, or any other financial mechanisms, under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
The action is organized by Ecodefense, Gendercc, Life and WECF e.V. - Women in Europe for a Common Future - and is particularly interesting for photojournalists.
