Love, Rage and ACTION : Mon 14 Sept
On Monday 14th we take to the streets. The Government know that climate breakdown is here, yet where is their plan? How do they intend to secure a liveable future for the British people?

Cacerolazo
Time: Midday (gather from 9:30)
Location: Central London, details coming soon
A loud, insistent banging of pots and pans, it’s a strong and fairly traditional expression, going back into early 19th century France and it's widely associated with protest in Latin America.
However, ours is a cacerolazo with a difference, we’re not just being a noisy rabble, but holding that key 'and', so we’ll be alternating short periods of big banging noise with quiet periods, silence, a song, a poem, nature sounds.
It’s going to be a pretty impactful, dramatic action. It’s essentially a very simple design and there’ll be plenty of pre-action briefing. We’re going to be processing the action to visit certain key locations in Central London.
What should you bring for the Monday day of action?
Bring your a pot or pan and something to bang them with, decorate your pot with XR symbols, stickers or anything your creatives minds can thing of. Bring your XR flags and pin on your patches and badges. And some earplugs!
What should you bring or wear on Monday?
Make a flame shaped placard, put flames around a hat or wear a heart on your sleeve. See the Get Creative page for ideas.
Earth Love
Time: 9:30-16:00
Location: Central London, details coming soon
The EARTH LOVE Action on Monday will intentionally accessible.
It will take place away from Parliament in a green park and we’ll have Poets Corner, art blockers, DPAC, Quakers and Buddhists and those who choose quieter forms of protest, gathering in a park.
We’ll express our LOVE FOR THE PLANET against the backdrop of the fires and the drought which are ravaging our beautiful Planet, our Home, our only Home.
You can bring their own unique interpretation, colourful outfits, signs and creations to show the beauty of the imperilled natural world. Some are holding small discussions, talking to the public, others like Quakers, Christian Climate Action and Buddhists may hold ceremonies and vigils.
A roving band of Red Rebels may perform at intervals.
People join with Earth Love when the Cacerolazo is has finished at around 3.00pm.
A Climate Choir will lead us all in song as we depart in peace.
The protest reminds us that there are many forms of protest and also of the need for prompt action in an emergency with no one left behind. We are all Crew. We treat Nature and Life with RESPECT.
