The Youth of the World attending this year’s COP12 can rest assured that their right to demonstrate peacefully and reasonably will not be impeded upon. Meetings with the appropriate authorities confirmed that actions taken by security to 1. End the demonstration through confiscation of signs and dispersal of those present, and, 2. Delete photos taken by a Youth photographer of security’s illegal actions, were both unneccessary and illegal. Unfortuneately, those photos are irretrievable. However, Youth still retain their gusto for taking further actions as the COP moves forward(or stagnates). What these actions will concentrate on will be decided by the particular impediments to progress that shall later present themselves in the later stages of the COP.
