Climate Change

We are a bunch of local activists that believe that there are people here, in Plymouth, who are concerned, willing to understand and to take action about the Climate Emergency we are living in.

Like the rest of the Rising Tide network, we work voluntarily by creating direct action against the root causes of Climate Change and providing popular education on this matter.

We also organize actions as a local ART NOT OIL group www.artnotoil.org.uk.

Mayday Mayday! Activists target climate snatchers around the country.

Coventry
Leamington Rising Tide and People and Planet visited the E.on headquarters at Westwood Business Park in Coventry to expose the truth behind E.on's greenwash and show that carbon capture is a false solution to the problem of climate change. People arrived at 8am to hand fliers to the workers. One protester occupied the roof of the building. Banners were erected reading "POLLUTE.ON NO MORE GREEN WASH". There was juggling and a picnic outside the doors of the building as the protestors waited for a march of students from Warwick University People and Planet to arrive at 1.30. The marchers came with a replica model of the coal power station and a game of 'catch the carbon' with balloons and nets. The protesters gathered outside the building and then the sign outside was painted green to symbolise the e.ons greenwash.

Fossil Fools Day was such a great sucess - Now is not the time to pause for breath, now is the time to continue building out networks, continue skill sharing and continue taking action! And here are the dates of the next two Days of Action on Climate Change, called by the Network for Climate Action in co-operation with the Rising Tide Network and the Camp for Climate Action. 1st May - Mayday Mayday: Invasion of the Climate Snatchers & 3rd June - The Climate Action Day that bites.
