Virtual Walk to COP27 - 'Townhall' Gathering 2 in London

In September 2021 climate campaigners started walking from London to Glasgow for COP26. They aimed to influence the United Nations Conference on Climate Change - COP26 - to act urgently to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

This year, a virtual journey from Scotland to November's COP27 in Egypt started last week in Glasgow. Hybrid or virtual events will be held in each of the countries on the way. They aim to link COP26 to COP27 and focus on local climate challenges and solutions with speakers and panellists.

The purpose is to bring together people to educate each other on climate challenges and action, forge a sense of solidarity, connect with like minds, and catalyse action.

The first 'Townhall' meeting was in Glasgow and the second in person meeting and online gathering will be at:

King's College, London

12:30 - 2:30 pm on Monday 26 September

One speaker is Bishop John Arnold of Salford, Episcopal Liaison on Environment for the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales.

Topics to include: Climate change challenges and responses in England and Climate change and transport in England.

All welcome to register to attend in person or to join online.
