The need for action on climate change is what causes the fight to break off

Greenpeace members and supporters are dead set on curbing climate change and global warming.

From their standpoint, there is one sure way of achieving this goal: convincing both ordinary folks and politicians to do their best to cut down on the amounts of pollutants that get released into the atmosphere on a daily basis.

The video above is meant to draw attention to the fact that politicians are the ones responsible for making sure that the ecological footprint of urban areas worldwide is reduced to a considerable extent.

“We want European politicians to vote in the coming weeks to reduce pollution from new cars by supporting car efficiency targets of at least 95g CO2/km by 2020 without any loopholes like super-credits or time delays and supporting challenging 2025 car efficiency targets that ensure carmakers mass produce the ultra-low carbon vehicles we need,” reads an online petition started by this group.

Those wishing to sign the petition and support this Greenpeace campaign can do so here.
