Film Disruption: ‘When it comes to climate change, why do we do so little when we know so much?’
Through a relentless investigation to find the answer, Disruption takes an unflinching look at the devastating consequences of our inaction.
We are hoping people will come and be inspired by this short, uplifting film and gain an understanding of this important issue. We want to share with you why tackling climate change is driving us to take action to protect our children’s futures. This hopeful film shows the power of people like us coming together to act.
Arrive for AGM starting at 6.15pm or food and film at 7pm – PLEASE BOOK here

Tuesday 3rd November, 7pm
In early 2016, a trade deal between Canada and the EU (the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement, or CETA) is due to be debated and voted on in the European parliament. CETA is a lot like TTIP, the US-EU trade deal currently under negotiation – except the negotiations are finished on CETA. Like TTIP it allows corporations to sue governments in secret courts over decisions they don’t like.
As part of the growing movement against corporate trade deals and to try to stop final agreement of CETA, Global Justice Now are planning a speaker tour in early November. On 3rd November it will be in Leeds and will include speakers from Uganda and Canada.
Venue: The Carriageworks, The Electric Press, Millennium Square, Leeds LS2 3AD
We’re part of Global Justice Now, a democratic membership organisation which campaigns against inequality and injustice in the global economy. We want to see a world where ordinary people control the resources they need to live a decent life, rather than corporations and the super rich calling the shots.
