There are almost many different opinions on the most effective way to deal with the climate emergency as there are individuals concerned about it. On Saturday 1st December, we are organising a rally outside the Polish Embassy and march to Downing Street, marking the beginning of UN climate negotiations with a call to action.
Why do we believe this is important? Because to deal with a crisis as huge as climate change we have to take it on at every level. You can make changes as an individual (you won’t save the world by changing your lightbulbs, but if you make significant changes to cut carbon, like not flying, and talk about it, it helps raise much-needed awareness). And you can make changes in your workplace. And by lobbying local government. And of course you can target national government, where much vital action is blocked.
