Greenpeace Southeast Asia is marking today by announcing the upcoming filing of a petition with the Commission on Human Rights of the Philippines. They are encouraging Filipinos to sign on to the petition, and non-Filipinos to show their support. People can get involved by signing up here.

The petition asks the Commission to investigate the responsibility of the investor-owned Carbon Majors  - some of the world's largest fossil fuel producers - for human rights violations or threatened human rights violations resulting from climate change and ocean acidification impacts.
