Will you be one of 100,000 people surrounding the Houses of Parliament to demand action on the climate emergency?
The biggest climate protest yet is taking place from 21st April – 24th April.
Join Christian Climate Action as they take a stand against fossil fuel company greed and government inaction – which is fuelling both the cost of living crisis and the climate crisis.
CCA are working to bring 100,000 people to protest outside the Houses of Parliament in London, directly taking our call for change to those in power.
Back in 2019, 10,000 people came out on the streets of London. Shortly after, Parliament declared an environment and climate emergency. But not enough has changed in the behaviour of those in power. Imagine what 100,000 people working together could do. Imagine you are one of them. Would change be unstoppable?
If you have never attended a protest before, this is the place to start. We’re working to make it as inclusive as possible. Churches, small groups, families, friendship groups, knitting circles… they will all be there! We are also joined by charities and organisations, including Green Christian, Tearfund and SCM (Student Christian Movement).
As a church we are encouraging people to take part in this movement and a group of us will be heading up to London for the protest on Friday 21st April – do join us! This is a movement fully supported by the Church of England and Diocese of Oxford and our own Bishop Olivia will be there in London.
