You Control Climate Change

The European Commission is launching an information campaign to build public awareness of climate change. Using the slogan "You control climate change", the campaign encourages citizens to adopt certain everyday habits to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The campaign being kicked off on 29 May 2006 in Brussels directly targets the public at large. Its aim is twofold: first, to get all European citizens to understand that their daily personal behaviour can have an impact on climate change; and second, to describe the small changes in everyday behaviour that can help cut greenhouse gas emissions.
