President Evo Morales announced on Sunday that call all the nations of the planet to a "great mobilization" in environmental protection and shall, by April next, to a world conference of social movements in Bolivia verified, after the "failure" of the Copenhagen summit. "The global problem (climate change) is irrational for the industrial development of factories. To this should result. He was asking for technical and scientific arguments to ensure, from here, a large international mobilization to defend the environment, especially water. Monday there will be an international press conference to call the peoples of the world, "Obama said in the rural town of Culpina, in southeastern Bolivia.
Following the Summit on Climate Change, which issued a meager outcome document, "undemocratic", as the same Morales, who on Saturday returned from the Danish capital, La Paz in South America proposed to mount an alternative forum to Copenhagen.
The forum, whose agenda is stage of consensus, it will be noted for the April 22 International Day of Mother Earth.
Morales, who participated Sunday in the 49 years Culpina Foundation, which awarded funds for implementing various irrigation projects, construction of an educational unit and sports fields for a total of 6 million Bolivians summon the social forces around the world to a meeting in Bolivia "to carry out a great event where will propose solutions on climate change."
The president expressed his frustration at not having reached any agreement at the Copenhagen Summit, but stressed the achievement of breaking the hegemony of the countries developed in this event.
protested the proposal to representatives of developed countries, which require an increase in global temperature to two degrees Celsius, being that now, with 0.7% increase in the average temperature on the planet, dry lakes, glaciers disappear and feared the disappearance of islands, placed just above 10 and 20 m above sea level by melting of continental ice.
"If we do not take important decisions in 30 years more our children and future generations will have serious problems. Heat and people are dying in Europe. And the capitalist countries do not want to change their policies to avoid further damage to nature, "he said.
And if they (the industrial powers) do not want" people will have to make change, "said .
The president suggested that when there is an official call for the international meeting, Bolivia's social organizations should immediately start discussions among its affiliates, to find solutions to world problems.
said one of the main reasons for the call to this work aims to ensure food for the world's population, compared to the famine broke out in various parts of the world.
"I even thought about having a fellow English-speaking leaders to send them to raise awareness, mobilize and nationalizing natural resources worldwide, including in Africa where there is much suffering and embarrassed," the Chief State.
The Copenhagen agreement, drawn up by the U.S., which was supported late in China, recognized the need to keep global warming below 2 degrees, but does not commit to doing so.
The plenary adopted a document described as ridiculous by environmental organizations.
The agreement is not binding, is more like a declaration of principles and far from the initial proposals.
The Climate Change Summit in Copenhagen, presented in the last two years almost as a "last chance" save the planet, has been a resounding failure and what is worse, it represented a change from previously accepted mechanism and participation.
