Climate Talks
Trade Talks
Money Talks
All talk an no ACTION!
But not in Edinburgh!
The next round of UN climate changes negotiations take place in Bonn,
Germany from 14th-23rd July (COP6.5 to discuss the Kyoto Protocol). The
immediate 60% cuts in greenhouse gases scientists state is the required
action is not even being discussed. The cut being negotiated is 5.2% across
developed countries, with important exclusions, such as aviation and
international freight (so as not to interfere with globalisation?).
Make you opposition known - join hundreds of others in the streets with
your bike for 'Critical Mass', and a grand tour of Edinburgh's climate
change landmarks.
When? Friday 20th July, 5.30 pm
Where? Festival Square (large square on Lothian Rd, next to Shearaton
Hotel, opposite Usher Hall)
What to bring? Yourselves, friends and bikes, rollerskates or equivalent,
anything thats colourful and/or makes a noise!
