G8 Action Network statement: The G8's communique regarding their action on climate is actually inaction being masked as movement. It is a great fraud being perpetrated on the global community that would significantly reduce its capacity to contain climate change. We fully agree with the statement of the Government of South Africa that "[W]hile the Statement may appear as a movement forward,we are concerned that it may, in effect, be a regression from what is required to make a meaningful contribution to meeting the challenges of climate change."
