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

One small step for man, one giant leap for humanity...

To the honorable John Key,

I hope your actions will fit this title. Making history often means taking bold steps for change. The thinking that has caused the problems of today will not be the same thinking that solves these problems.

I urge you to be bold, you have us to stand behind you and back your decisions on a strong climate treaty and binding legislation.

The science is clear, we need to adjust our lives to fit with planetary boundaries. An aim of 350ppm will help us determine targets.

Thank you for being present at Copenhagen and thank you for accepting the climate negotiation challenge.

With love

Youth of today, future of tomorrow.
