Come to ClimateCamp G20 on April 1st!

Hi folks,

Is anyone planning to go to the Climate Camp on Wednesday 1st April in Central London?  I and at least 1 other Peckham Powerer might be going.  Let us know if you fancy going by replying to this thread!  Here's a short bit of blurb from the Climate Camp website:

...

We've camped against the Heathrow runway, we've camped against the Kingsnorth coal power station. Now its time to camp against the over-arching problem: absolute faith in unfettered markets and endless economic growth. On April 1st the G20 leaders arrive in London. At a time of climate crisis their response to the market meltdown is emergency loans to car manufacturers, increased spending to encourage consumption, and bailouts for the very people who got us into this mess - just the thing that will make the climate crisis worse.

Don’t let them get away with it: join our camp in the Square Mile!

We will convergence on the European Climate Exchange, Hasilwood House, 62 Bishopsgate, EC2N 4AW at 12:30 exactly. If we are to be succesful, it is very important that we all arrive at the Climate Exchange at the same time. We must swoop in from different directions, and under different means to all arrive within a minute or two of each other. We therefore advise that people meet up with their mates early, and somewhere within easy reach of the Climate Exchange. Then, at the appropriate moment, leave quickly, and timed to arrive at exactly 12:30. You may even want to practice beforehand.

Perhaps a "Peckham contingent" could gather before hand?

bother, I'm not going to be able to make it to today's Climate Camp because I've got to work.

If you go then please do let us know how it turns out.

Thanks,

Jack
