Saturday 5th December Stop Climate Chaos rally in Central London

There will be "coaches from every city and town in the region" for the historical national gathering in London to Stop Climate Chaos. Dr David Golding CBE, speaking on behalf of the regional campaign for action to curb global warming and block the construction of new coal-fired power stations, unless they have full carbon capture and storage, goes so far as to describe the Copenhagen conference as "the most important negotiations in the history of humanity".



Please pray and consider putting it in your diary now. Christine Clarke, a Tearfund campaigner from Manchester, says, "There's a group of us at church who see campaigning as being obediant to God by speaking out on behalf of poor people. In my own life prayer and campaigning go hand in hand. This is God's work. "(Summer Teartimes)



If you don't get Tearfund's Act fast cards then I'd fully recommend them as a very quick and easy way to add your voice and to keep up to date on current campaigns. You receive a postcard, simple prayer points and information four times a year. The latest Act Fast Summer 2009 is For Money to Bring Climate Justice. Let me know if you'd like some.
