One day. One issue. Thousand of voices. (13/10/2009)
Today bloggers from around the world will post on one issue: climate change. Blog Action Day wants to create a wide and democratic debate on this subject prior to Copenhagen in December.
Bloggers should talk about climate change within the blog's original subject. For instance, a culinary blog may discuss food that has a lower carbon footprint (amount of CO2 emission generated by the production, transportation and marketing process of the item).
The Ambassador Alan Charlton is taking part in the action. Through out the day he will exchange posts with Brazilian bloggers. Click here to see Ambassador's post.
