    The Road to Paris

    In December 2015, world leaders were scheduled to meet in Paris for the UN’s COP 21 climate conference. On the agenda: a historic global agreement to cut greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change before it was too late.

    What was COP 21?

    What was COP 21? Why were the UN climate talks happening in December 2015 in Paris, France, so important? And what can you do about it? Morgan Freeman gives you the details on why this meeting was really your meeting.

    What was COP 21?

    OUR FUTURE WAS ON THE LINE.

    After years of wrong turns and failed attempts to address the climate crisis at the international level, a turning point was finally in sight. We had to act.

    In response, we launched the Road to Paris campaign to raise awareness of the stakes at COP 21 on a planet-wide scale and give people everywhere a say in negotiations that carried profound implications for our shared Earth. By connecting digital outreach, live media programs like 24 Hours of Reality, organizing events across US college campuses, and many, many more initiatives over nearly a year, Road to Paris brought together over 2.2 million citizens from Philadelphia to the Philippines to call on world leaders to act boldly and decisively at COP 21 with a strong agreement to limit emissions.

    THE REST, AS THE SAYING GOES, IS HISTORY.

    Thanks in part to pressure from our Road to Paris supporters and climate activists worldwide, 195 countries signed the Paris Agreement, creating the first truly international framework for concerted action to stop climate change. Now our work continues to ensure leaders live up to their commitments and make the promise of the Paris Agreement a reality. And we will.
