Klima Aktion Time is Running Out Horgen

Horgen, 14. September 2006: Drei Minuten vor 12 zeigt die riesige Uhr an, mit der Greenpeace-Aktivisten gestern die Teilnehmenden der Vorbereitungs-Tagung zur Weltklimakonferenz in Nairobi empfingen. Die rund 40 Minister und Laendervertreter werden in Ruschlikon noch bis heute Nachmittag beraten. Ebenso lange wollen die Aktivistinnen und Aktivisten ihre Praesenz aufrecht halten - als mahnendes Zeichen fuer die Dringlichkeit, mit der jetzt die Weichen gestellt werden muessen, um den globalen Klimawandel moeglichst bald zu stoppen. © Greenpeace / Ex-Press / David Adair
