On the weekend of 27-29 November, as world leaders arrive in Paris for the UN climate summit, people will take to the streets in hundreds of major cities around the globe as part of the largest climate mobilisation ever: the People’s Climate March.
In Melbourne, a broad and diverse coalition of organisations from the environment, conservation, clean energy, development, indigenous, health, labour, faith and grassroots climate sectors will join forces to demonstrate the huge public support for real action on climate, hold our political leaders to account and build on existing campaigns and organising methods to strengthen our movement for the longer term.
The Melbourne march will be held at 5.30pm on Friday 27 November.

This is a very important event, part of a global movement. It would be great to have a BSFG contingent there to help show the world that we do care enough!

Unfortunately our train timetable does not synchronize with this event - but if there is enough interest it may be possible to organise a bus to go down and back on the Friday. If you are interested in taking part in the major event and would like to travel by bus please let John Lloyd know as soon as possible.
