This weekend, people across the world will join together and make a spectacular stand. Marches and creative actions are planned globally – and Reading will be a part of that as communities join together for a message of hope and optimism.
We are delighted to announce an amazing range of people who will speak at Reading People’s March for Climate, Justice and Jobs this Saturday. Be sure to look out for some Local Champions too marching with us throughout the demonstration and speak in the Town Hall!
We have worked hard to bring the big issues facing us in Britain and across the world to the protest – from fracking, to flooding, to the need for investment in renewables and jobs.
We want everyone to leave the day inspired and ready for action.
Climate change affects everyone, it is a global issue People are already facing the furious impacts of environmental devastation through floods, droughts, landslides, and typhoons
Be part of the global solution People all over the globe will be marching on 28th and 29th November to mark the beginning of the COP21 summit in Paris.
If there is an issue that is important to you and your friends, then make a banner, make placards, form a bloc and let your voices be heard!
Leaders must listen when hundreds of thousands of people march and demand that they support ambitious action on climate change and injustice.
- No to dirty energy (fossil fuels)
- Yes to renewables
- Yes to Justice for People and the Planet
- Yes to new Climate Change related clean jobs
- Yes to sustainable development NOW
- Yes to science and clean tech for the future
We believe that change is possible and within our reach if we stand together.
