Climate Justice Potluck and Hui – July

350 Aotearoa, The Fossil Free State Sector Coalition, Sustainability Trust, and Generation Zero invite you to their monthly climate justice group hui/potluck.

They will be having a catch-up on what everyone has going on, and seeing how we can collaborate together in the coming month. 

Whether you are part of an organisation or an individual who is passionate about change to our system, with a focus on looking after papatūānuku, come along.

The idea is to together, share our mahi, ideas and see if there are overlaps, room for collab, and just have a general catch up and eat some tasty kai!

When: Thursday 28th July, 5:30pm

Where: Sustainability Trust, 2 Forresters Lane, Te Aro.

Details on the Facebook event

Please feel free to spread the word (and the Facebook event).

Bring potluck if you feel comfortable doing so, but if you would prefer not to share food, feel free to bring something along for yourself to snack on.

Got 5 minutes? Join the Climate Club

The Climate Club is an e-newsletter you can subscribe to for climate activism you can fit into your busy life. It’s run by a trio of volunteers.

Every week, they send you an email about climate campaigns in New Zealand and world-wide – along with actions you can do that will take 5 mins, 10 minutes or 15 minutes of your time.

For example, this week’s edition includes:

  • a Green Party petition to the Minister of Finance asking to save our regional rail services
  • a 350.org petition to the president of the Democratic Republic of Congo to cancel their plan to auction of blocks of land for oil exploration – including land within the world’s second-largest carbon sink
  • a reminder to get enrolled so you can vote in the local elections
  • the handover of the petition to Eugenie Sage, to stop sending plastic waste overseas (at Parliament on 26 July, at 12.30pm)
  • a link to an article about how emissions increases with wealth
