and growing movement for climate action. Around the country people are
talking about how climate change affects us, and how the system we live
in is doing nothing to slow the tide of climate chaos. Despite
government rhetoric little has been done to address the problem and it
is time to take matters into our own hands!
Boiling Over will be a space for thought, analysis, learning,
networking, training and creativity. It will bring together community
concerns and global issues, as well as provide a space to develop a
strategy for stopping climate change from within Scotland.
The event will be a safe, accessible and open environment, free from
oppression, hierarchy and discrimination. There will be a fun kids space
and food & accommodation will be provided for a small donation. Light
entertainment will take place in the evenings and film showings will run
throughout.
So come along and join us!
