#CEEbill

5000 leaflets are ready for distribution. Please contact us if you can help – there’s a Googlesheet for Berko sign-up. Email your contact details on dacorumclimatenetwork@gmail.com to arrange drop-off/collection of leaflets for delivery – which must be non-contact – i.e. just dropping through the door, not ringing the bell. You can also email if you find it tricky to access the google docs sheet, and if anyone would like to contribute towards the printing costs (which were £147).

M and M to take for Tring and Hemel too.

We agreed to try to share the petitions to MPs more widely. When Covid allows we can collect signatures on high streets. The CEE bill team have asked members of groups like WWF, FOE, Christian Aid etc to ask them to support it; that worked with Greenpeace.

DON’T FORGET to keep sharing photos of you holding up an A4 card calling on people to ask their MP to support the bill – every Sunday morning. Share on social media/send to xr-dacorum@protonmail.com

The Ripple Effect from 22nd Jan – please support this initiative by inviting three friends to: 1) change their energy provider 2) switch their bank and 3) join Stop Ecocide to become an Earth Protector (once you’ve done all three yourself). They then ask three more… See the film: https://youtu.be/G7JVvOlBMTY
