Description
This event is organised by SCOTTISH CLIMATE CHANGE CAMPAIGN as the Scottish part of the Global Day of Action during the United Nations Climate Talks in Poznan, December 1st to 12th 2008. This international event will call on world leaders to take urgent action on climate change. We want to involve the widest possible range of people and organisations, so bring your banners with your message and all your family, friends and colleagues!
The purposes are: to be seen by the public and in the media; to bring together all the numerous organisations and individuals who are committing to action on climate change; and to invite them to bring their contributions under the theme of the march. We aim to send a positive message that we CAN indeed do something about the situation if we all work together on this and also tell our elected governments: Act now – for just solutions to climate change! We are prepared to act - are you?
We will be walking together from the Clyde Amphitheatre through Glasgow city centre towards Glasgow Caledonian University where we will hold the rally. Bring banners and anything bright, visual and colourful, as well as warm and waterproof clothing. There will be speakers, music, workshops and fun activities before, during and after the event!
