s around the world. // We come here in Copenhagen becau climate change pos a grave and growing danger to our people. All of you would not be here unless you - like me - were convinced that this danger is real. // This is not fiction, it is science. Unchecked, climate change will po unacceptable risks to our curity, our economies, and our planet. //
