Dear colleagues,
Thanks for signing the petition on inclusion and sustainability at the coming ICMPC.

It seems that in response the organizers have made some changes to their guidelines for presenting remotely, which is promising. But they still propose charging about $430 for both on-site and online participants, which will exclude most potential remote participants.
Could you forward the link to colleagues? There is still time to sign it. Perhaps you have an email list for graduate students, or for your lab. Do you have access to a social media page?
Unfortunately we could not convince the SMPC to include the petition in their digest emails, so many potential ICMPC participants in North America have not been informed.
In another special request, would you like to sign and share a different petition on a related topic, and/or give me a tip on how to improve the content? It's called "Save a billion children at the UN climate conference" and the short link is change.org/cop28reform.

Thanks for your support and best wishes
