Climate Rush is a new campaign inspired by the actions of the Suffragettes 100 years ago, who showed that peaceful civil disobedience could inspire positive change. We are a diverse group of women and men who are determined to raise awareness of the biggest threat facing humanity today – that of Climate Change. We demand DEEDS NOT WORDS because individual choice alone cannot curb CO2 emissions if we are to stop runaway global warming.
We say: “No new coal – to avoid runaway climate change. We can’t have infinite growth on a finite planet.” We demand a transition to a low-carbon society with sustainable jobs, counteracting any jobs losses from the coal industry with a major re-skilling programme in sustainable trades.
The most important thing you can do to support Climate Rush is to attend one of our actions (see our website).
