After all, why in heavens Canada has already won six Fossil of the Day awards

A Canadian, son of Portuguese parents and who has lived in Brazil for more than three years (he’s an ecologist with a Masters degree by USP!) explains why, after all, his country doesn’t stop winning the least envied award at Cop – despite being one of the most easy-going moments in the conference. That’s the Fossil of the Day, contest created by Climate Action Network (Can) Climate Action Network (Can), an alliance of world NGOs, showing those countries that disturb the negotiations the most every day. There’s first, second and third places. And Canada has already won all of them. One day, it got to be on all three spots at the same time. Today, for the first time, the USA has won the first trophy – for its goal to reduce only by 4% in relation to 1990 and for not supporting the idea of long-term financing for developing countries. However, once again Canada has risen to the podium, sharing the third place with Saudi Arabia. A member of the A member of the Canadian Youth Delegation, which gathers more than 20 Canadian youth from several fields, Dean Medeiros reveals that the position of most Canadians diverge from that of their government, which is not representing the real desire of its citizens (apparently, that happens around the entire world). He further tells how he and a bunch of youngsters are trying to change this situation. His desire is for Canada to become a leader in the fight against climate changes. For that, even the Little Mermaid applauds.
