IN PERSON Woodlands Climate Action 2021 Coffee Chats - The Irony of COP26

  • 66 Ashley Street Glasgow United Kingdom (map)

There is a lot to feel nervous about these days, and while the effects of the pandemic are often in the forefront of most of our minds, many of us are simultaneously combating anxiety related to the climate crisis.

Please join us for our weekly Climate Action 2021 Coffee Chats on our community terrace, where each week we will chat about a different topic relating to the climate crisis, to offer support, advice or even just a sympathetic ear as well as connect community members during these isolating times.

This week we will be discussing the UN climate conference (COP26) coming up in November, specifically at some of the more cynical and ironic aspects of the conference. For example, is it responsible to host a conference centred on taking responsibility for climate change which requires a huge amount of collective air travel from delegates? Is it wise to allow car manufacturers and tech companies who contribute so much to the climate crisis to be sponsors and thereby greenwash their image? Simpler still, do these conferences actually help the issues being discussed?

Please join us! The climate chat will be hosted on our community terrace at 66 Ashley Street.

Email, text or call Xander on xander@woodlandscommunity.org.uk or 07708 474895 to register for this event for free.

Tea/coffee and vegan bakes will be provided!
