What percentage of the world's population will wear dogtags proclaiming their fear of carbon dioxide?

Cannes: Annan and Geldof kick off climate change campaign
A new global campaign to halt climate change, dubbed ‘tck tck tck’, has been launched at Cannes by Kofi Annan, Bob Geldof and Havas global CEO David Jones.

The campaign will be backed by a reworking of Aussie classic ‘Beds are burning’ by Midnight Oil, with lyrics reworked by the band, and sung by a host of stars.
...
The campaign urges people globally to become ‘climate allies’ and apply pressure to world leaders to reach a binding deal at the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen in December this year.

Supporters can show their support for the campaign with dogtags that can be worn bearing the ‘tck tck tck’ logo.
...
Bob Geldof said: “The relationship between climate change, poverty, and development is self evident. I have seen myself war, famine, and disease that have all in part been fuelled by changing climate. It is critical therefore that in Copenhagen world leaders recognise this and tell us precisely how they intend to deal with it.”

The ‘tck tck tck’ logo will be freely available for placement on to any marketing content at the website www.timeforclimatejustice.org .
