What a way to ring in 2016!! YOU helped Cut the Red Tape! YOU were part of history and YOUR voice was heard!  

Our report from COP21. 

On December 3, 2015 - Cut the RED Tape Project  hosted a Side event at COP21 called The School, Student & Parent Call to Climate Action  as part of their year culmination campaign in life of the climate talks in Paris.  The project presented schools commitments from 14 different countries that signed the   School's Act On Climate Declaration   demonstrating their collective effort and commitment to do their part to face the biggest threat for future generations thanks to the support of  Green Schools   in the United States and the Global Issues network in South America.

On December 4, 2015 - Cut the RED Tape project participated in the  GIN Paris School Conference at Marymount School of France where schools from different parts of the world including the Green School of Bali gathered for two days to discuss global solutions to our most pressing environmental problems with distinguished keynotes including Conspiracy director, Kip Anderson and No Planeta B Director, Yoca Arditi-Rocha, among many others.  Students leaders from around the world like Avalon Theisen from   Conserve it Forward  where present and supported the  Call of Action to COP21 Leaders.

And because we have been raising our voice for the past year, on December 12, 2015 world leaders finally listened. 196+ countries signed the  Paris Agreement sending a clear and loud message that the transition to a clean base economy is here to stay!  Like the landing on the Moon, this is another Giant Leap for humanity.  

Many years from now, all of us will be able to say to our children's children we were part of history, that we called on leaders to Cut the Red Tape....  and our voice was indeed heard in Paris. (Read Full Report)
