WDM campaigners report from the UN climate talks in Cancun
The UN climate change conference - COP 16 - is being held in Cancun, Mexico from 29 November to 10 December 2010. Follow it all here.
WDM has sent three campaigners to Cancun. They are working alongside campaigners from the global south to push for climate justice for the world’s poorest people.
They will be following what’s happening and reporting back through email, blog posts, videos and photographs. We will be asking you to take urgent action to hold politicians to account.

As we arrive in Cancun with people from across Mexico and around the world, concerns about a repeat of the dismal failure of the shambles that was Copenhagen abound. The deepening of the outrageous behaviour that was seen in Copenhagen seems more likely than ever.
