Overview

Everyone is talking about COP26 and the climate emergency. But what should we really be doing about it?

The planet is in ecological crisis: we are in the midst of the sixth mass extinction event this planet has experienced. Scientists believe we may have entered a period of abrupt climate breakdown. This is an emergency. In this public talk, speakers from Extinction Rebellion Sheffield will share the latest climate science on where our planet is heading, discuss some of the current psychology around climate change, and offer solutions through the study of social movements. Everyone is welcome and there will be time to ask questions and discuss afterwards. Entry is free. This is a really good opportunity to meet those who are involved in XR locally, and to understand more about what the group gets up to. It’s also a great way to meet others who are also concerned about climate change, and who are ready to offer a bit of time and energy to accelerating positive changes.
