Hackney Climate Coalition is calling on the people of Hackney to get behind the planned London COP 26 coalition demonstration.

Assemble 12.00pm in the City of London and march to rally in Trafalgar Square at 3.00pm

The greatest crisis imaginable, described starkly by the UN Secretary General as ‘code red for humanity’ demands the biggest popular response ever. Despite the evidence of climate breakdown and the need for rapid systemic changes, our government remains fatally wedded to a business as usual approach of road building, airport expansion, a coal mine in Cumbria and drilling in the North Sea.

The demonstration called by the COP26 coalition plans to assemble in the City, the location of the banks and financial institutions that have failed to heed the warnings issued by the 2015 Paris COP showering investment capital into the fossil fuels. Our political leaders need to meet our demands and abandon the policies that are contributing to climate chaos.
