So then why does it feel like only the rich countries like the U.S, Australia, Canada, and the European Union are dominating this Climate Conference and shutting out over 100 countries from the Global South!? This feeling is common in both the adult delegation as well as the youth. The adult delegation of these 100 developing countries has been threatening on several occasions to walk out of the Bella Center because of the lack of being heard and the US decision to stall negotiations. There has also ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear UN:
We are losing faith in you quickly.  Please advise.
With love,
Future Leaders.
As Copenhagen boils with anxiety about today’s mass climate justice action at the Bella Center, all I can do is lower my head at the United Nations in complete disappointment.
Shutting out thousands of representatives of civil society from entering the UN conference this week, without showing a drop of compassion, has put me teetering on the edge of renunciation.  We came to the UN conference to represent ourselves, as young leaders from the US and youth of ...]]></description>

The youth chanted &#8220;1 degree now, 2 degrees suicide&#8221;. This was reportedly in response to one of the lead negotiators of the Group of 77 least developed nations (G77) Lumumba Stanislaus Di-Aping of Sudan walking into a meeting of non-governmental organizations from Africa crying. Di-Aping stated that the current state of the international negotiations would mean suicide for Africans. Checktheweather co-founder Kari Fulton reported ...]]></description>
