| Climate change is increasingly disrupting climate patterns. More flooding and drought means crop instability and the spread of disease, and human suffering will increase as a result. |
| CanadaRick :: These Are Our Children, Climate Change Fatalities |
| Save the Children said today that a quarter of a million children could die next year due to the effects of climate change, and that the figure could rise to more than 400,000 per year by 2030.

Save the Children's director of policy David Mepham said: "Global leaders need to act now to stop the needless deaths of millions of children. It is still possible to avoid the worst predictions for climate change if governments are bold and commit to a binding international agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions when they meet in Copenhagen."
It is up to us to insist that we have governments who will act, not on behalf of the oil and coal gang, but on behalf of these children, and all children.
