Umbrella Action Day Against Climate Change 2008
15 Jun 2008
Umbrella Action Day - 3pm, Sunday 15th June
The second Umbrella Action Day on Sunday 15th was a great success! Stop Climate Chaos supporters took to beach again to press the Government to deliver on its climate change commitments 
Days after the first Umbrella Action Day last year the new Government committed to reducing Ireland's emissions by 3% a year. This year the brolly brigade delivered the clear message that it's time to act and that putting a price on carbon pollution in December's budget is the place to start. Directed by leading choreographer Muirne Bloomer the large crowd celebrated our connection with the natural environment, and as you can see from the photo on the front page of the Irish Times, led the charge to take on the climate challenge.
