The National Climate March (http://www.campaigncc.org/) and Global Day of Action (http://www.globalclimatecampaign.org/) will be held during the UN climate talks in Potsdam, Poland. This year’s UN climate talks are CRITICAL as they’re our last chance to make sure we have a really strong Post-Kyoto agreement. This agreement will be finalised next year during the Copenhagen UN climate talks, but most delegates will have chosen their position by then.
In London, we’ll be marching to Parliament, bringing four main themes to the UK government:
- NO to runaway expansion in aviation
- NO new coal - no new coal-fired power stations
- NO to the expansion of agrofuels
- YES to renewable energy and green jobs
Assemble: 12 noon at Hyde Park Corner
Speakers at the rally include:
George Monbiot- Author & Journalist
Caroline Lucas - Leader, Green Party
Nick Clegg - Leader, Lib Dems
Michael Meacher – Former Environment Minister
A cycle protest will be joining the march, starting at Lincoln ’s Inn Fields at 10.30 am. See more at: http://www.campaigncc.org/bikeride.shtml
An after party will be held at the Synergy Centre in Oval, London on the evening of the march.
Let’s Show We Want Solutions Now!
