On the occasion of 20 RIO I propose that, women of the world, especially Africa, to start the project "Women, 7 billion of action against climate change. All women should make proposals and recommendations for regulate the climate today. I propose that the tracks of reflection should be focused on environmental education, environmental entrepreneurship, sustainable development, sustainable tourism, environmental engineering etc.

This list serve is for members of the Women Major Group following the Post Rio+20 process (Financing SD, SDGs-post2015) as well as for members of the Women Major Group following Environment processes (UNEP). The Operating Partners (OPs) of the Post Rio+20 process that coordinate the group rotate periodically.
