Speaking at Bristol Peoples' Climate March 29 Nov 2015


I am really pleased to announce that I will be addressing a climate change rally in Bristol on 29 November 2015.  If you live in the West Country, please come and march.


On Monday 30 November 2015, the UN Climate Change Conference in Paris (COP21 Paris) made up of 196 countries will be meeting to discuss climate change

The day before COP21 starts, there are going to be rallies around the world, highlighting the importance of stopping climate change.



As well as a major rally in London, there will be a big rally in Bristol.  As the European Green Capital for 2015, Bristol is hoping to have big numbers of people present, sending a clear message from Bristol 2015.  Please try and attend a rally somewhere in the world or organise your own.  

This is the website for the event where you can register that you are coming or offer to volunteer

  1. Well done! This is the only place where I found info about Climate Rally in Bristol. I only knew about the one in London because I am organising the Vegan Bloc. I was looking for information about the march in Bristol because Kerry McCarthy will be there.

    1. Thanks so much for that. I didn't know Kerry McCarthy was speaking so am excited to meet her, as she is amazing. Everyone forgets that DEFRA covers Environment, Food and Rural affairs and not just animal farming, although they like to think the other sections are not important. Did you see my Flexitarian blog post? I'm about 80% vegan now and the rest is work in progress!

Thank you for posting a comment. Please can you make sure that it is positive and is about me or my blog and not about promoting you or your business. Thanks. Mya-Rose Craig
