Film night: Countdown to Copenhagen

Venue: Bread and Roses Pub, 68 Clapham Manor Street, SW4 6DZ (about ten minutes walk from Clapham Common tube)

It is now clear that there will be no binding agreement at Copenhagen to stop runaway climate change.

Countdown to Copenhagen film night will provide a chance to discuss the issues around the Copenhagen talks, how to get to Copenhagen for the mass mobilisations and what we can do locally.

Films:

Save Vestas

When the only wind turbine factory in England was threatened with closure, workers occupied the factory supported by an unprecedented red, green and black coalition. Featuring amazing footage from inside the occupation shot by the workers themselves, the dispute has led the way in bringing the battle for green jobs to the forefront.

Plymouth; Stop the Nuclear Waste Dump

Plymouth is already where nuclear submarines are refueled, to the detriment of local people's health. Now the privatised dockyard want to decommission submarines there too - by sawing the core reactors into pieces and storing them in warehouses in the centre of a population of 250,000 people! If Trident was scrapped, these docks could provide 1,000s of green jobs producing renewable energy equipment, with very little extra investment.

Climate Camp: Kingsnorth

Last year's climate camp saw an increased trade union presence as they fought to stop a new coal-fired power station being built - a campaign that has just resulted in an incredible victory. With footage of the spectacular direct action that brought it about, this film looks at the arguments against "clean coal" and for the creation of millions of green jobs.

Countdown to Copenhagen

Participants in this year's climate camp explain everything you need to know about the talks in December, why the mobilisations are so important, how to get there and what you can do here.
