Swedish Society for Nature Conservation, SSNC, celebrate their 100:th birthday with a national bikeride relay. Since the beginning of May, members of the association have been making their way to Stockholm by bike, from different parts of the country. On their way the bicycle caravan has stopped in numerous cities, arranging talks about climate change, signings of their petition and meeting people. The demands they are putting forward are that the industrialized countries should reduce emissions of greenhouse gases in their own territories with 40 percent compared to 1990’s levels until 2020. They also want the industrialized countries to strongly increase their support to climate work in developing countries. During the tour CEO:s from Swedish major companies as well as private persons and local politicians have signed the petition, which will continue collecting names until the UN summit on climate change in Copenhagen in December. Now SSNC will celebrate their anniversary with a big party - before returning to work with mobilizing. – We want to provide support from many different parts of society, so that we can reach an ambitious agreement in Copenhagen. Sweden has a decisive role to play in making EU take on a real leadership, says general secretary of SSNC, Svante Axelsson.
