Who owns the Arctic? Who owns the Ocean? Who owns the fish?

These are questions the Coalition for the Global Commons will pose to thousands of children from around the world via Plant for the Planet during the first international children’s consultation to take place at the UNEP Children’s Conference on August 20, 2009.

The following months the children will share their wishes with the international participants of the Conference for the Global Commons to take place in the Residenz Palace in Salzburg, September 29, 2009. At the same their wishes will be sent to 10,000 of the world’s most influential actors, whose answers will in turn be posted on the website. These wishes will also influence the decision to be made during the UNFCCC Conference in Copenhagen as to whether or not there will be a global contract on climate protection.
