Earlier at Saturday volunteers worked on a project called wreath across America. It’s been going on for 20 years, volunteers keep get together to lay holiday wreath on the head stones in Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia and more than 500 other cemeteries around the United States and oversees. Family members, military veterans, cop, scout troops anyone can do this. The organization that coordinates the wreath laying has three goals: remembering the lives that have been lost; honoring the people who have been serving in the military right now; and teaching young people about the sacrifices made by the veterans and their families.

Representatives from the world have agreed to keep fighting the challenges of climate change. They reached a deal during a conference at South Africa this week, some critics say the new agreement won’t do enough to address the issue, most the officials who were at the conference are happy with it. R K fills us in on the details. 

It started with a pleat and a prayer, “and whether you’re rich or poor this is the only home, and if we destroy this home, we already had it.” “Climate justifies itself! Climate justifies itself! Climate justifies itself!…” A weekend at protesters marched outside the climate change conference, activists rallied for deals to be signed that will limit carbon emissions to less dangerous levels. Fro two weeks now, delegates from nearly 200 countries have been talking about climate change, they haven’t been here on the beach, they’ve been locked up in meeting rooms in the conference hall, and now they come to a decision. “We’re indeed saved tomorrow, today…” For the first time, the world biggest polluters have signed up to a global pact on climate changes. “First of all we are committed to get in a long term overreaching agreement in place by 2015, it will kick in by 2020.” Also the Kyoto Protocol was renewed which increased its certainty for the carbon market and provides incentives for new green technology, and progress was made on creating a green climate fund channel around a hundred billion dollars to vulnerable nations to help them deal with the impact of climate change. “It’s extraordinarily complex negotiation with a lot of moving parts, upon till the last minutes there was every reason to think it could will have fallen apart, so I think the fact that it came together is another self-success even if the outcome doesn’t fully satisfy anybody, and it’s just enormous amount of work ahead of us.” Activists say the deals aren’t ambitious enough, but after years of failure, many believe is now a historic global commitment to tackle climate change.
