December 8th Global Climate Demo is endorsed by the Alternative Summit at the G8

Klaus Mielke of 'Germanwatch', speaking for the new German coalition on climate change - the "Klima-Allianz" - at the Climate Change plenary session, urged the audience to join the December 8th global climate demonstrations. The same message came from the "Climate Forum", organised by the BUND (German Friends of the Earth), the Global climate Campaign and Practical Action, a few days earlier. Finally at a workshop organised by the Global Climate Campaign and others activists began to make concrete plans to build for the demonstrations.

Meanwhile at the big Saturday demonstration, and others, thousands demonstrated for action on climate, while thousands of leaflets for the December 8th demos were given out. Germany and all Europe is now gearing up for mass action on climate on December 8th !
