What: A public PARADE FOR THE PLANET for action on climate change

Where: From the amphitheatre at Dublin’s Civic Offices to the Custom House

When: Saturday 8th December from 1pm

December 8th marks the GLOBAL DAY OF ACTION ON CLIMATE CHANGE. As the Bali talks on climate change proceed, ordinary people around the world will be finding different ways of sounding the alarm on climate change so their politicians wake up and do much more about it.

Stop Climate Chaos is hosting a PARADE FOR THE PLANET which will see supporters making their own carbon-neutral way along the route, by foot, bike, skateboard and buggy, ringing bells and blowing whistles to SOUND THE ALARM FOR ACTION ON CLIMATE CHANGE!

At 2 p.m. the bells of churches from around the city and the country will ring out to signal that the world must warm by no more than two degrees centigrade if mankind is to continue to live here with any level of comfort and safety.

The Government will be invited to receive over 25,000 petition signatures which Stop Climate Chaos has collected during 2007 demanding strong political action to stop the planet burning and give us a future worth having.

Member groups from around the country are also planning to find their own ways of marking the Global Day of Action.
