Ring the changes on climate

Ring the changes on climate change - countdown to Copenhagen

6 December 2008

This December governments are meeting to discuss solutions to climate change. We want to send a clear message to world leaders that bold action on carbon emissions is essential.

Ring the changes on climate change is your chance to get involved.

The section of a barometer that says 'change'

This action is open for everyone to join and we'd love you to come along and add your voice.

There are a number of actions for you to choose from over the weekend:

1) Join us on the steps of St Anne's Cathedral from 11am until 12pm on Saturday 6 December.

2) Arrange for bells to be rung in your Church at noon on Saturday 6 December.

3) If you don't attend Church organise a gathering and ring hand bells at noon.

4) Persuade the clergy in your Church to bring the central message of the event into that weekend's services.

5) Make 6 December a "Power Down Day" by not using heating or electricity for an hour from 8pm to 9pm.

An action guide is available with ideas, tips for getting the media interested and contact details.

We hope to see you there.
