FFD leaflet front**Three Resources For The Day**

1. Leaflet to hand out on the day
Explains the basics of Fossil Fools Day but has a big empty white space for you to add the specifics of why you are taking action in the way that you are, why you are at the location you have chosen and your website or contact details. The editable Photoshop files can be downloaded here - front and here - back. If you don’t have Photoshop, the leaflet is also available as a Word file so you can print it off (4 per piece of A4) then physically glue your text in the empty space before you photocopy the leaflet.

2. Local press release (Word)
This is an adaptable press release for you to use on the day. Obviously you will need to fill in the gaps and change the tense depending on if you send it out before or after your action. Take bits from it or use the whole thing – it’s yours to play with. Also see the national press release here: http://risingtide.org.uk/fossilfoolsday/press

3. Now available: Media Q&A sheet - Email us for a copy.

We are in the middle of an unstoppable rise of creative, radical, necessary direct action against climate change… be part of it, on Fossil Fools Day and beyond.

Whether you’ve been plotting for months or have just been inspired, there’s still time left to plan your action. Read on for loads of resources and support… and whatever you do, make sure to call or email us on the day so we can add your action to our end-of-day round up, and show the world what grassroots action against the fossil fuel industry can achieve.

Happy Fossil Fools Day everyone!
