10,000? marchers took to the streets of London to protest climate change while world leaders decide to do too little too late in Montreal.

This was the largest turnout yet for any climate change demo. A sudden mid afternoon downpour failed to stop people on their way to the US embassy. Apart from a short sit-down outside parliament, The A to B march was fairly uneventful. Would definitely have been improved by some direct action.
