Something magical is happening... All across the world we’re coming together to hit the streets on November 29th — hours before the most important climate summit this decade!


Dear friends, 

Something magical is happening... All across the world we're coming together to hit the streets on November 29th — hours before the most important climate summit this decade! 

This is a day of action not to be missed — click on the map to find an event near you: 



This is going to be mega! Last year almost 700,000 people took to their streets and created the largest mobilisation on climate change in history. This year we are going even bigger! 

If hundreds of thousands of us join events in cities and towns everywhere, we'll show our leaders meeting in Paris that our movement cannot be ignored and we will accept nothing less than an ambitious climate deal, with a global commitment to 100% clean energy!

Let's seize this moment, for our future, our kids' futures, and everything we love.

With hope,

Oli, Alice, Morgan, Iain and the rest of the Avaaz team
