Walk Against Warming

Posted on Monday, December 7, 2009 at 08:43PM by Registered CommenterHappyEarth in | CommentsPost a Comment

From Wollongong to Iceland to Tokyo, it’s so inspiring to see the way communities across the globe are coming together to show their concern about climate change and support for strong leadership in creating sustainable futures.

This Saturday is Walk Against Warming – where we can walk the walk as world leaders talk the talk at the 15th United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen. In Wollongong, we’ll be joining in the walk at 12 noon, meeting at the steps of the Westley Uniting Church in Crown St Mall, and heading down to Wollongong Harbour. If you’re wondering where the nearest walk to you is, check out http://www.walkagainstwarming.org.

We’re extra inspired for action on climate change at the moment after watching the DVD ‘The Age of Stupid.’ Told through the eyes of a lone elderly man in the year 2055, this documentary/drama explores what lead to a devastated future world. It shares insights into the real life stories of people from seven countries, including a British windfarmer, Nigerian medical student, Iraqi refugees kids and a 82 year old French mountain guide, and leaves an empowering legacy for creating a more sustainable and humane world – check out http://www.ageofstupid.net for the details.
