Action Plan. With this roadmap, we are charting a forward course, based on the three
“Is”. It is through my consultations with you that the three objectives of this
Conference emerged -- the three “I’s”: implement the Kyoto Protocol;
improve the Kyoto Protocol and the Convention; and innovate for the future.

Ne tuons pas la beauté du monde
Ne tuons pas la beauté du monde
Ne tuons pas la beauté du monde
Chaque fleur, chaque arbre que l'on tue
Revient nous tuer à son tour
Ne tuons pas la beauté du monde
Ne tuons pas le chant des oiseaux
Ne tuons pas le bleu du jour
Ne tuons pas la beauté du monde
Ne tuons pas la beauté du monde
Ne tuons pas la beauté du monde
La dernière chance de la terre
C'est maintenant qu'elle se joue
Ne tuons pas la beauté du monde
Faisons de la terre un grand jardin
Pour ceux qui viendront après nous
Après nous
Ne tuons pas la beauté du monde
La dernière chance de la terre
C'est maintenant qu'elle se joue
Ne tuons pas la beauté du monde
Faisons de la terre un grand jardin
Pour ceux qui viendront après nous
Après nous
