Ljubljana, 17. november – Člani Fokus društva za sonaraven razvoj so danes ministru Podobniku predali nekaj več kot 2500 podpisov ljudi, ki zahtevajo aktivnejši boj proti spreminjanju podnebja. Vlado pozivajo, da Slovenija sprejme cilj zmanjšanja emisij toplogrednih plinov za 30 % glede na leto 1986 do leta 2020. Ta cilj je v skladu z napovedmi znanstvenikov o potrebnem zmanjšanju emisij toplogrednih plinov v razvitih državah, če želimo ohraniti varno podnebje.
