The Global Day of Action Against Climate Change took place on Saturday,
in parallel to the Conference of the Parties to the UN Convention on
Climate Change, which is being held in Bali for the past two weeks. A
delegation of over 200 members of La Via Campesina from nearly 20
countries from Asia, Africa, America and Europe participated in the
demand for serious government measures to tackle climate change
globally. 1,300 people from social movements and organizations, as well
as farmers, small producers and landless peasants joined a big
mobilization in the Bali region of Kuta, to demand climate justice.
Real World Radio interviewed the international coordinator of La Via
Campesina, Henry Saraghi, who is also the top leader of Peasant
Organizations of Indonesia. Saraghi said “For us is very important to
say to the governments that are meeting in the hotel that if they
continue to solve the problems of the global warming based on the
market, the global warming problem can’t be solved, and the same thing
happens with the hunger in the world”.
