Thursday 29th May, 7pm-9pm
Can Sheffield take a leading role? A discussion led by Suzanne Jeffrey from the Campaign Against Climate Change. Suzanne is a key driver behind the One Million Climate Jobs and It’s Time to Act campaigns. More information about ‘Its Time to Act’ campaign on www.campaigncc.org/timetoact.
The alternative to climate chaos starts with building a movement from below. All progressive changes in society have been brought about through movements of people, creating a massive groundswell. Think of the civil rights movement in the States, the abolition of slavery and apartheid and the winning of rights for women. The Time to Act! Campaign sets out to build a base, aiming to bring the political pressure needed to commit Government and the European Commission to a carbon-free future. Go out and argue the climate case and build local climate alliances.
