i count a success

from the icount website:

More than 25,000 people packed Trafalgar Square and closed surrounding roads to make their voices count, each one calling for urgent action on climate change.

The carnival-like event was the first of its sort for ‘I Count’. It brought together a huge range of supporters from the Women’s Institute members to Miranda Richardson.

Johnny Borrell, lead singer of Razorlight, who performed live on stage said:
“Today is all about showing that together we make a difference, together we can send a message, together we can stop climate chaos and together we count.”

wish i coulda been there, but my current state of brokenness forbade it.

did anyone go?

i count

this is something to DO!
this is something you CAN actually do!
this is something that is actually WORTH getting involved in!
this is something where you can join others and see that your care and efforts are NOT INCONSEQUENTIAL.
this is about YOU being involved and making a statement to yourself, your family, your friends, your neighbours, your country, and yes, even the world, and even yes, to GOD, that you are wanting to be counted amongst those who will STOP CLIMATE CHAOS.

so, let me encourage you to:
1. GO to trafalgar square on 4 november and make your presence felt;
2. visit the i count website, register, read, and DO the simple actions;
3. TELL other people about it.

go on. go on. go on. go on. go on. go on. go on.......
