PrinceGaga 7,644 Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Friday's rally was the first of several demonstrations planned across Australia/New Zealand for the weekend. The demonstrations have been timed to take place ahead of United Nations climate talks in Paris next week. Leaders will meet at the climate conference to discuss a new global climate agreement to limit greenhouse gas emissions in an effort to keep global warming under 2 degrees Celsius. Melbourne march organisers hope those attending the meeting will heed the message of climate concern. It is said that up to 60,000 people were in attendance. 35 marches were held in different locations around New Zealand today including 20,000 participants in Auckland, 10,000 in Wellington and 8,000 in Christchurch. Up to 2,000 marches are said to have been held worldwide by the end of the coming week. Source _____ I participated in the Auckland one today!! It was the most awesome thing ever!!!
