The Road to Copenhagen: Report Back From Ed Miliband's Visit to E17
Thank you to everyone who came to our community meeting with
Ed Miliband last Thursday. Over 250 local residents participated in the discussion, representing many different aspects of Walthamstow. It was inspiring to hear them come together to talk with such knowledge and passion about how we can tackle climate change. A big thank you to Willowfield School, staff, parents and pupils for their help and participation as well.

If you'd like to respond to the ideas in this document - or correct any misreadings of handwriting - you can find it all on Facebook here As we mentioned at the event, I'll be attending The Wave this Saturday 5th December, along with Ed Miliband. The Wave has been organised by the StopClimate Change Chaos coalition. It's a rally for action on climate change and part of a global series of public actions.

The Wave will call on world leaders to take urgent action to secure a fair international deal to stop global
warming exceeding the danger threshold of 2 degrees C. We will be leaving Walthamstow at 11.30am on
Saturday to join the rally in Grosvenor Square in central London before the march starts at 1pm. The nearest tube is Bond Street. If you would like to join me and other local residents on this event to show your support for action on climate change, please getin touch.
