Global Warming Siren

Climate Change Activists parade through downtown Copenhagen on Wednesday beating drums and chanting slogans.

A group of Protesters are beaten and arrested after breaking through the police line at the end of the parade route.  You can hear someone on a megaphone give the call to action, a countdown ensues, then the protestors rush through the police line.

Over 900 people have been arrested by Danish police in Copenhagen this week.

It seems like a few people that were initially very brave at the start of this where stuck in front of the mass,  and pushed into the police if they liked it or not.   It seems like there was no escape if they were caught in the front of the swarm.

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s presentation at the United Nation’s Conference on Climate Change (COP15) in Copenhagen Denmark today.

Arnold starts out thanking various dignitaries from around the world and throws out a few quick jokes before getting down to the business of addressing the challenges involved with creating a global treaty to help curb climate change.

Schwarzenegger’s wildly anticipated presentation was preceded by a series of domestic appearances and interviews over the past several months. He has long been an outspoken advocate of fighting global warming and greenhouse gases.

His speech focuses on helping developing countries avoid the fossil fuel revolution by using alternative energies. He cites Kenya’s 75% reliance on hydro-electrical power, the decreasing price of solar power, and his expectation that the Green Revolution will happen much quicker than people anticipate.

Leaders from countries around the world are preparing for their trip to Copenhagen in December to attack global warming issues. Although U.N. global warming conference kicks off the first week of December, 29 leaders have already signed a declaration supporting cleaners transportation and new climate change laws. These laws would mainly affect industrial polluters who already purchase credits for their waste products.

The UN Climate Change Conference will take place in Copenhagen (Denmark) from Dec 7 to Dec 18, 2009. The goal of this summit is to bring global leaders from over 190 countries to the table in order to form a new global climate change agreement that will be enacted after the first first agreement (from under the Kyoto Protocol) expires.
