Join people all over the world on December 6th and 'Ring the Changes'

1 Nov 2008

Saturday December 6th marks the Global Action Day Against Climate Change coinciding with the United Nations Climate Talks COP14/MOP4) in Poznan, Poland, December 1st to 12th 2008. Events will be held around the world on Saturday December 6th to call on world leaders to take urgent action on climate change. In Ireland at 2pm people will get involved by ringing bells in their communities to 'Ring the Changes' and herald in a new era of urgent action on climate change.

What is 'Ring the Changes'?

The Irish Stop Climate Chaos coalition are running a 'Ring the Changes' activity across the country to highlight that the time for urgent action is now. With just 12 months to go until a global deal must be reached, more needs to be done, especially by governments, to ensure real progress is made in the fight against climate change. People throughout Ireland will ring bells in their communities to ensure Ireland plays its part in preventing runaway climate change.

What can you do?

Help ring in the changes to Stop Climate Chaos! We will provide you with bells, leaflets, posters and information to run your own event in your local area. You can ring the bells outside the church, local shop, community centre, wherever there are people really-even if you ring your bell on your own doorstep you will be contributing to the campaign! Any bell will do - even your mobile phone!

If you would like to take part we can send you a Ring the Changes Action Pack containing 10 posters, 50 leaflets, Stop Climate Chaos Temporary Tattoos, extra information about the campaign and a set of 4 Stop Climate Chaos bells that you can put on your Christmas tree after the event!

Decide what kind of event you are going to run in your community; gather friends & family to help you and decide where you're going to ring the bells.
