Today 1.00pm: Climate Change Flashmob event in Oban

At 1.00pm today (21st September) at Oban’s North Pier, Annie Loughlin hosts the Climate Change wake-up call ‘Flashmob’ event.

It’s one of thousands of events taking place on September 21st all across the world to demand a strong global climate treaty.

Everyone participating in each of the global  locations will set their alarms and gather together a few minutes before the assigned time, at locations chosen by the hosts in our local area. When alarms go off, participants at each location will hold up their mobile phones and find each other, and then, as a group, call leaders to urge them to go to Copenhagen and sign a fair, ambitious, and binding climate treaty this year.

Participants will make as much noise as possible, while recording videos and photos for a United Nations presentation — then head back to work, school, or home to upload the results.
