Action on Fossil Fools Day - 1st April

There are lots of great opportunities to show our concern about our greenhouse gas emissions, and our appetite for strong action on climate.

The Global Day of action on Dec 8th last year was a good example of how we call all be organising actions and events in our communities.

There are three more days of action in the pipeline, which have been called by Rising Tide. Info is below.

Who here in Aotearoa is keen to get involved in any or all of these? Lets start the discussion...!

1) FOSSIL FOOLS DAY - NATIONAL, 1.4.08
Roll up! Roll up! The Countdown to Fossil Fools Day Begins...
With less than two months to go, activists are busy plotting and planning, intent on bringing the spirit of carnival and mischief to the fight for climate justice. The day of action is being supported by the Climate Camp movement, Global Exchange and Rainforest Action Network among others.
Numerous actions are expected worldwide, with possible targets including
the oily strongman and gas guzzling gowk, the dirty coal merchant and
biofuel clown, the offset juggler and aviation freakshow. It's time to
turn the tables on the fossil fools and to pull a prank that really packs
a punch.
