Last year Campaign against Climate Change organised the biggest climate demonstration in history mobilising 10,000 people on the streets of London.

Climate Change is an issue that should be of concern to everyone. Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans showed not only the terrible damage caused by increasingly volatile weather - but also that the worst effected by climate destabilisation will be poor and working class people. Already there are thousands of "climate refugees" who meet racism and closed borders. According to the World Health Organisation, 150,000 people die every year from the effects of climate change.

Hurricane Katrina was a glimpse of what will be happening on a much larger scale across the world if our government's fail to take action to cut greenhouse gas emissions NOW - and it will be ordinary people who will bear the brunt of floods, drought, famine, and the economic turmoil caused by climate catastrophe.

Government Chief Scientist Sir David King has predicted that a 3 degree rise in temperature would cause 400 million to starve as cereal crops failed,
and leave up to 3 billion people without water.
INACTION IS NOT AN OPTION!
