SOW meeting 24 April: Communicating about Climate Change

Do you sometimes feel despairing about climate change? Look around you and think that nobody’s doing anything to help? Come to the next SOW meeting and be inspired. Alana Sinclair from Cambridge Carbon Footprint is giving a talk on “Communicating about Climate Change” which is guaranteed to make you see things differently, and positively!

Cambridge Carbon Footprint is the organisation that connects all the local groups in the area, combining small efforts to create a larger impact. For instance, they support the Repair Cafe network, loan out thermal cameras, and run the Net Zero Now course which was the inspiration for SOW.

We’ve all had those frustrating conversations with people who resist doing anything about (even believing in) climate change. And the reality is that things can’t improve if only a passionate minority are taking action. But how do you engage and persuade people? The answers might surprise you!

Wednesday 24 April, 7:30 at the Church Hall.

Plant Swap Stall

Free Plant Swap / Stall

10–12 on Saturday 18 May
2–4pm on Sunday 19 May

Outside 36 Coles Lane

Bring some vegetable plants you’ve grown and take away something planted by someone else. Even if you don’t have anything to swap, take some plants anyway – leave a donation (collection for the Cambridge Ukraine Fund.)

Sow some extra seeds now so you can bring along spares to the stall. While the main focus is on veg plants and sustainable food, we won’t turn away flowers!
