March from Freedom Square

‘No, No, No to CO2!’ and ‘Climate Justice Now!’ were chanted as we marched out from Freedom Square, raising our voices for action on climate change.

Raju, Advocacy Advisor from Tearfund’s partner organisation in Nepal spoke to the crowds about how climate change is impacting his country through floods and changing weather patterns. He called for more funding to help poor communities adapt to the changing climate.

Lots of polar bears, penguins and other animals were represented in costumes. But we must remember that the poorest communities are already bearing the brunt.
