350feet long letter to Barack H. Obama for 350ppm world, Bangladesh
Related to country: Bangladesh


Bangladesh, victim of climate change. Here and there is no national and international attention for climate change, damage and about duty. If we and world leaders dont think about the Bangladesh, who will? Bangladeshi students writing a letter to the President of the United States Barack H. Obama to gift a 350ppm world. This 350feet long letter signing starts 15-11-2009 at 11am from Bangladesh Agriculture University Mymensingh, Vice Chancellor of the university starts the letter signing by giving his 1st signature. Later on every professor, lecturer, students sign on the letter. Before the signing program a rally march on the university ground by the speech of university admin, there Vice Chancellor of the university said that, “We very lucky and proud that this letter signing program starting from our university on the occasion of National Agriculture day. We are part of this world, agriculture is essential for us and for this off course need a stable climate. We hope the decision makers will think about us to think about them also. Thanks to the organizer to include us in this Nobel event.” After VC speech proctor of the university request all the students and teachers to attend the letter signing ceremony. Presenter of the program Professor Zakir Hussain described climate issues. Director of Design Bangladesh MD. Mahmudul Karim read out the message from 350.org by Bill McKibben. Bill McKibben sends a message on this letter signing action to Barack H. Obama “As I have been traveling around the world and showing pictures of the International Day of Climate Action, none have moved people more than the photos from Bangladesh. They demonstrate that the people who have the most to lose from global warming have put aside their daily worries and joined in common cause with people around the world. This is deeply inspiring, and has helped many nations move closer to a Survival Pact for Copenhagen--one that demands that the world's rich nations cut their own carbon emissions steeply enough to give countries like Bangladesh a chance.

The whole world is grateful to the leadership that the ordinary people of Bangladesh are providing on this issue. And it makes me especially happy, because though I've traveled across the whole world there are very few places I've ever been with landscapes as lovely, or people as warm, as in Bangladesh. Thank you enormously for your hard work.” After this, Project coordinator Shofikul Islam read out the message from Taking It Globally “Good Day Ladies and Gentlemen,
Our world today is undergoing massive and rapid change. People on all sides of this planet are coming together in order to address global challenges which cannot be solved without worldwide collaboration. The scope of Climate change demands new ways of doing things. It is evident that the results of global warming are already affecting many parts of the world, but what is remarkable about this time is the climate FOR change.

Never has the world been more ready to connect, collaborate and share. From Toronto to Mymensingh, from Cairo to Kansas citizens around this planet are coming together to overcome that separates us and unite towards social good. Networks like TakingITGlobal prove that change is coming faster than ever.

We will carry the message that you sign here today to the most powerful individual in the world, to the president of the United States, but even his power is small compared to the power we have to change when we work together on a global scale.

While there are many gathered here today, there are countless others all over this planet who stand here along side us in the struggle to remake the world into a more sustainable and just reality. It is with great honor that we continue on this journey alongside you.” This program successfully runs 11am to 5pm. After finishing at BAU the letter signing program held on a Madrsha from 6pm to7pm. Madrsha students and teachers signed the letter.

16November will sign school students, 17November will sign college students and 18November the ending letter signing ceremony will be held at Dhaka University. Vice Chancellor of Dhaka University will address the program. This letter signing program gets mass attention and popularity. Locally this program organized by Design Bangladesh in support of 350.org and TakingItGlobal.org
