A
large part of the population continue to be unaware of global

do not act quickly enough.
On April

information day on the high-street of Winchester in rural
Hampshire between the hours of 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
Throughout the day we will distribute
information packs and encourage people in the street to talk about
climate change, ask questions and what they can do to help combat
global warming under the old motto - "THINK GLOBAL - ACT
LOCAL!" - now more relevant than ever before.
