I am working with Laura Hamilton from Divest Waterloo on putting together another People's Climate March event together for Nov 29 as part of an international day of action.
We are in early planning mode right now. Would GREN like to join in?
We're thinking of a family friendly event, March that starts at Waterloo Square and ends at either Swimplex or First United Church on William st. Displays from area groups
Transitions KW BlueDot Regional Waste ManagementGRCA and Emergency Services for flood and climate preparedness Divest WaterlooCREWREEPSustainable Waterloo Etc.
Event is solutions based and politically polite. That protects participants who rely on grants and we could invite the Mayor to give welcome. Standing with our community leaders is the strongest stance we can take.
Is this something GREN would like to help with? If so let me know.

Dear friends,
Something magical is happening... All across the world we’re coming together to hit the streets on November 29th — hours before the most important climate summit this decade!
This is a day of action not to be missed — click on the map to find an event near you:
This is going to be mega! Last year almost 700,000 people took to their streets and created the largest mobilisation on climate change in history. This year we are going even bigger!
If hundreds of thousands of us join events in cities and towns everywhere, we’ll show our leaders meeting in Paris that our movement cannot be ignored and we will accept nothing less than an ambitious climate deal, with a global commitment to 100% clean energy!

Let’s seize this moment, for our future, our kids’ futures, and everything we love.
With hope,
Oli, Alice, Morgan, Iain and the rest of the Avaaz team
