A tidal wave of climate activity in the South West

A new South West survey published on 24th October 2007, reveals a massive surge in community activity on climate change across the South West.

The survey carried out by Friends of the Earth shows that:

• Over 250 community groups are involved in activities around climate change.
• Between them they involve over 25,000 people, who give their time almost entirely voluntarily.

The scale and breadth of this activity shows how great is the public's appetite for positive action on climate change. It should encourage all South West politicians to show leadership and put their weight behind a strong Climate Bill.
