Dear Climate Change Colleagues

The article is: Six Things that Citizens Around the World Urgently Need to Know About Climate Change In Light of Several Recent Scientific Reports.

- Developed countries must legally, morally, and practically more aggressively reduce their GHG emissions than developing countries
- Developed countries must legally, morally, and practically help finance mitigation and adaptation programs in poor developing countries.
