Where next for climate activism in London?
Second Camp for Climate Action follow-up meeting, Tuesday, September 26, 7 PM at RampART

Everyone is welcome, whether you came to the camp or not – and bring your friends! Among other things, we'll be talking about how we want to get involved in upcoming climate-relevant days of action, and doing some last-minute planning for Saturday night’s Climate Camp benefit gig, also at Rampart – more details below.
