IPCC's Climate Change Report
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)
was established in 1988 by the World Meteorological
Organisation (WMO) and the United Nations Environment
Programme (Unep). The role of the IPCC is to assess
the scientific basis of risk of human-induced climate
change, its potential impacts and options for adaptation
and mitigation.

Campaign at Primary School, Ledina, Slovenia
Primary School Ledina in Ljubljana, the capital city of Slovenia,
has joined the project Against climate changes, too. Considering
the fact that the school is situated in the very city centre, we wish
to have a cleaner environment, with less noise and pollution. On
the other hand, we are aware of the fact that the changes in the
environment are leading us towards catastrophes on a much larger scale.
Class 5a at Primary School Ledina
In class 5a we talked widely about the topic, examined the
material we had gathered at home and discussed the climate
changes on our planet.
We have come to a conclusion that everyone of us should start
by making small changes him/herself. In this way we wrote our
promises. At art classes we designed a frog named Frank, the
mascot of our campaign.
On Wednesday, January 17, we prepared a march of frogs.
We put up posters reminding people of the dangers for the
environment if the climate continues to change dramatically.
We also made leaflets on which we wrote suggestions what
each of us could contribute to the campaign. We distributed the
leaflets to people all over the school and warned the passers-by
who were given a chance to write their own promises as well.
Many pupils, parents and teachers responded and we managed
to gather over two hundred promises.
The media responded, too. Radio Slovenia reported on the
campaign on Wednesday morning and on Saturday on the
programme Sobotna raglja. The newspaper Slovenske novice
published an article about us on Friday, January 26.
What is going to be our next step? We have decided to keep
our promises . At the same time we wrote to Slovenia's highest
authorities and urged them to write their own promises and
send them to us. We have truly enjoyed the project and have
learnt a lot for future life.

"So that the frogs could breathe easier" .... Ptuj, Slovenia
So,that the frogs can breathe easier!
The students of Gimnazija Ptuj (class 2.a) have joined the ENO
and the project about climate changes. The project is called
»So that the frogs can breathe easier«. We were inspired by the
mascot (a frog named Frank), which we made by ourselves and
was symbolically carried across the road. Why did we do this?
The frog is an animal that is very sensitive to climate changes,
so many kinds the species are already onthe edge of extinction.
humans have a big influence on their life. The most interesting fact
is that frogs need the closeness of humans. Humans, however, are
changing frogs habitat by building houses and roads, changing layers
of humus, using pesticides in farming, destroying natural ponds etc.
Did you know, that gardeners are very happy if frogs inhabits their
gardens because that means they wont have any problems with pests?
By building an extensive road sistem network, humans are interferring
with frogs natural paths that lead to their spawning places.
This is the reason why there are so many frogs run over by cars during
theirr spawning season. Many environmental organisations are warming
us about this problem by carrying frogs across the roads, closer to the
spawning places.
Our preparations began quite some time ago. We startedto cutting frogs
from paper. Onto those paper-frogs we wrote our promises how we were
going to improve the environment. We made posters and invited other
students to take part in the activities. We presented our work with a
role-play between two worried meteorologists talking about climate changes.
We organised an exehibition in the school library.
But, if you look at the pictures, you will see for yourselves!

Gimnazija Škofja Loka, Slovenia
How did the students at Škofja Loka GrammarSchool, Slovenia, participate in the campaign known as:
The March of Frogs or how to reduce the emissions
of greenhouse gases, on January 17th this year?
The 1st year students (class E) already in December
last year discussed the causes and consequences of
climatic changes in the atmosphere at the science
subjects, such as Biology, Chemistry and Geography.
They brought up a lot of pledges how to change their
environmental behaviour and increase their awareness.
The 2nd year students (class A) made frogs out of
recycled paper, wrote pledges and on January 17th,
2007 prepared the school exhibition of the frogs and their pledges in a
school hall.
Besides this, the students prepared a lot of leaflets, saying: Turn off the
lights when the sun shines, which were attached to all classroom doors
in order to save some energy, when possible.
We informed the local media and there were some local newspaper reporters
who came to school on that day and they promised to report about the students’
activities which, we hope, might improve their environmental awareness.
Furthermore, the 3rd year students will watch an Al Gore film The
Inconvenient Truth next week as a part of their regular curriculum.
