Perhaps it will wake up even President Bush to the idea that action is needed. The story may be fiction but climate change is real and human activity is causing it.
The Russians have just confirmed that they will ratify the Kyoto Protocol, providing the extra votes needed to bring it into force.
This is a first step towards long overdue international action, and it is possible only because the European Union battled to keep the Kyoto agreement alive when the USA reneged on the deal.
The real issue in the European elections is not the sovereignty of any one nation but the future of our world.
This is the chance to make our voices heard. We need urgent action to prevent today's fiction from becoming tomorrow's horror story.

Stop fiction becoming reality
