CLIMATE JUSTICE NOW! SPEAKER TOUR

The climate crisis has been caused by rich industrialised countries, but
it is the world's poorer majority who are paying the highest price, as
extreme weather events become more common, freshwater glaciers melt, and
droughts increase. We believe that this means rich countries owe a climate
debt to the global south.

Speakers include:
* Md Shamsuddoha (Equity Bangladesh)
* Eriel Deranger (Indigenous Environmental Network) on tar sands
* Beatriz Souviron (Bolivian Ambassador to the UK)
