Challenging climate change

Just a quick one as I've lots to do today. As I'm sure many of you know there is a March against climate change happening all over the world on Sunday. Will and I will be going, and I hope that anyone who is near a city that has one and who physically can will also be going. As probably anyone reading this has a Blogger, and therefore possibly a blog, you probably have a message to get across and you want your voice to be heard. Well this is the way to do it. Make your interests known.
It comes at an appropriate time where Scotland had the opportunity to vote for the independence of their own country, and sadly lost it 55%-45% (certainly I believe as a direct result of shameful scaremongering by the English press and politicians). How gutting it must have been for those 45%, and how regretful those who chose to stay home, or who were too scared by England's threats but believed in the independence of their country must feel. The only way for change to happen is to make it happen. Other people won't do it. Other people won't stop eating meat or driving their cars or buying iPhones while you watch, YOU have to be the change. See you there.
