No images? Click here Dear John, It's been a busy two weeks on from the National Climate Demonstration where thousands of people from across the island, came out in full colour to demand just climate action. Ireland indicated on the international stage that it wants to be a leader in the fossil fuel phase out, while at the same time the Taoiseach has said that "LNG can't happen fast enough". This type of misalignment causes delays and inaction, and results in Ireland being a climate laggard. Since the demo, people have been calling and emailing their TDs to invite them to the Climate Mass Lobby of TDs. On the 3rd of December between 11am and 8pm, TDs will be attending the Climate Mass Lobby where they will be asked to pledge for quality climate action which pushes back on big polluters such as Liquified Natural Gas infrastructure, champions a fossil fuel phase-out, and ensures Ireland meets its national, EU and international obligations There's still time to get involved and there's a few bits of information I wanted to share with you. If you are require subsidised travel if you live outside of Dublin, please get in touch. You can download your copy of the How to Lobby your TD handbook which includes the list of demands for fast, fair and funded climate action. If you haven't signed up for the Climate Lobby day, there's still time. Just click the link above to get more information sent to your email. Alternatively, check out this info pack with e-mail templates, links, resources and the three pledges being asked of your TD at the lobby day. Can we make Ireland the next country to announce no further fossil fuel developments? Come to the Climate Mass Lobby and let's pressure the Government to take real climate action.
In solidarity, Stop Climate Chaos
Stop Climate Chaos is a coalition of civil society organizations campaigning to ensure Ireland does its fair share to tackle the causes and consequences of climate change.
