Would anyone like to join Friends of the Earth's action on
Saturday 30 March from 10:00 to 1.00
at
HSBC, 88 Muswell Hill Broadway, London N10 3RX (corner of Hillfield Park)
to combat HSBC, one of the biggest funders of climate breakdown.
We are disgusted that HSBC are HAPPY STILL BEING in COAL.
HSBC have responded somewhat to campaigners’ pressure, agreeing to stop funding new coal-fired power stations, except in 3 large Asian Countries. Our MP Catherine West will join us on 30 March to ask people to complete our postcard telling HSBC to stop funding coal.
HARINGEY DECLARES CLIMATE EMERGENCY!
On 18 March Haringey Council accepted our proposal to declare a climate emergency. The Council has undertaken to step up efforts to make the borough carbon neutral by 2030. We will closely monitor their plans and continue to push for greater urgency.
41 British councils have now declared a climate emergency, in effect promising to become carbon neutral, in most cases by 2030. They include Bristol, Cambridge, Liverpool, Manchester, Lambeth, Enfield and Lewisham. No doubts campaigners will get other councils to follow their example.
