Obama Reschedules Visit to Copenhagen Climate Summit

The Obama administration announced this afternoon that the president has moved his appearance at the U.N. Climate Change Conference from Dec. 9 to Dec. 18, the final day of the summit.
The date change signals an exciting and bold adjustment to Obama's involvement in the talks, as the last day is considered a crucial time in the talks with more leaders present, full of last-minute negotiations, and suggests that the president is confident he can help broker an agreement. According to the White House statement:
Based on his conversations with other leaders and the progress that has already been made to give momentum to negotiations, the President believes that continued US leadership can be most productive through his participation at the end of the Copenhagen conference on December 18th rather than on December 9th. There are still outstanding issues that must be negotiated for an agreement to be reached, but this decision reflects the President’s commitment to doing all that he can to pursue a positive outcome.
Of course, the U.S. will still be well represented throughout the duration of the talks by State Department negotiators and Cabinet officials, but I am thrilled to hear that Obama has decided to raise the stakes. This move could be a game-changer and help bring about some tangible results from the climate summit, hopefully putting to rest the whispers of doubts that have been circling over the past couple of months. Help keep the momentum going by signing the Hopenhagen petition below.
