[Gcap-mujeres] RE: Nominations for the GCAP Climate Change Working Group

[Gracia Violeta Ross Quiroga]

Dear Ana
 
I have been watching some documentaries on this issues, the most famous: Verdades Incómodas (Al Goring), The 11th hour (with Leonardo Dicaprio) and one recent in CCN Untold stories series: Bolivia Melting.
 
I was so sad to learn my dear Bolivia is affected when our contribution to the emissions of toxicitities to the plannet is so low, this is really not fair, because we do not even have industries, but our beautiful mountains are already melting.
 
I am not en axpert on this issue as I wanted. But I was not an expert on AIDS when I started either. I learned based on the need. I have two nieces and one third one to be orn on April 2008, I worry about the world in which they will live in when they are my age (30).
 
I want to do something. I was even thinking of challenging the AIDS community not to travel so much in order to avoid the extensive use of air planes.
 
This is why if you do not have any names, I would like to be part of this. I am really concerned. And I was thinking all the people we are saving some how out of the AIDS epidemic, might not live very happily or may die earlier because of climate change.
 
Violeta
