Appeal To The twittosphere For The UN Climate Change Conference 2009 #cop15

In less than 50 days the 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference (also known as COP15) takes place in Copenhagen. Delegates from 92 countries will be mapping out the Copenhagen treaty which will take the place of the Kyoto Protocol. The aim of COP15 is to come to a binding  climate agreement to reduce the amount of man-made greenhouse gases that have a negative effect on the earth’s climate system. Negotiations have been tough going and the  new international treaty on CO2 reduction is far from being endorsed.

As social networkers, we can take part in the movement by creating awareness and drawing the attention of internet users in our own networks; by disseminating information and links, and by making appeals to sign the agreement and striking up conversations on our blogs.

But most of all, you can use the hashtag #cop15 in your tweets to push up it to the Twitter “hot trends list” *. The more we are to use it every day, the more people it will reach. Invite your friends to do the same. Send your opinions to the leaders who will be gathering at the COP15: The most important global warming conference of the decade.

You can follow the official cop15 United Nations on Twitter and page Facebook.

You will find the Cop15 countdown clock on the blog of Humans Associated every day, as well as on our Twitter account (800 followers from all over the world) or on our Facebook page. It won’t be long before the 5 billionth tweet is sent (4 billion tweets have already been sent this year).

* The #cop15 hashtag appears regularly in the “trending topics” of Twitter, i.e., conversations. The hashtags, which are easy to find via the search engine “Twitter Search”, are a way of gathering tweets according to main interests, topics or events. Most of these “Twitter Memes” are temporary. The purpose of the hashtag #cop15 is to unite the community in the global flow of tweets around the Copenhagen Climate Change Conference, and to promote collaboration and networking. We also suggest the use of the hashtag #greenfr.
