Japan climate ads and poll results
Japan's international reputation and economic future are at stake as Japanese Prime Minister Taro Aso prepares to announce Japan's 2020 climate targets in the next few weeks. His decision will be critical to progress at global climate negotiations -- currently taking place in Bonn, Germany -- as countries like the USA and China are deliberating about their own ambition levels.
Avaaz.org, working with partner organizations in Japan and around the world, is running a campaign to call on Prime Minister Aso to set strong, science-based 2020 climate emissions targets. The campaign includes a public opinion survey showing widespread Japanese support for strong targets and an ad campaign calling on Prime Minister Aso to be a hero. You can download the press release and memo including the full survey results here.
