From Cochabamba to Cancun: Building a Climate Justice Movement in Quebec http://www.socialistproject.ca/bullet/367.php

In Quebec, the action plan proposed by the Cochabamba Conference should encourage the building of a grassroots movement that extends far beyond the existing environmental groups and organizations. Just like the Bolivian environmental summit, this must seek to involve the trade unions, community groups, the women's movement, progressive organizations and parties –

in fact the entire gamut of social and political movements – in a militant campaign for climate justice. The targets of this movement should be the failed environmental policies of our governments and large corporations, as well as those of the main international organizations (the UN, IMF, WTO, World Bank, NATO) that are all beholden to the Western industrial powers and dominated by the United States.
