Aims:
- protest against the continued failure of 29 COPs (Climate Summits);
- encourage activity in local environmental groups;
- network and make friendships;
- have fun making a noise and dancing.
stop press: We have just heard we've got a little grant from the Climate Justice Coalition, so we can offer a piece or 2 of vegan pizza to those who stay to network after. If that's not an incentive to get involved, we don't know what is!
