Dear John,

We set this site up to send encouragement to support you to go to Copenhagen.

It seemed to have some success... so we are encouraged to keep it going.

We want to support you to be a brave courageous and honorable leader, and there are some new policies on the table that threaten your reputation as a good leader.

We want to support you to work hard to protect the things that we hold dear, to guarantee 'thriveability' for all New Zealanders - today and in the future.

We have great hopes for you as a leader, and now is your chance to shine. There's a special role for you in the Big Work of our time. We know that it's hard work, but we are confident that you are up to it. Go on John, make us proud.

We stand behind you.
With love,
Us

Would you like to send John Key (New Zealand's Prime Minister) a love letter too? You can share a letter with John on this website by clicking here www.dearjohn.org.nz/submit You can upload pics as well! Invite your friends to write a letter too. Copies of all these letters will also be given directly to John Key.

John

I’m a kiwi working this week in the Maldives a country in democratic transition but also under huge threat from climate change. I’ll be seeing President Nasheed before I leave. It would be great to be able to tell him that you recognise the urgency of the threat to his country and the planet and that you are therefore going to the Copenhagen conference.

Yours, Peter
