Climate Chaos Coalition (CCC) with Christian Aid choir says coal kills at Department of Energy and Climate Change
Minister Ed Miliband came out to meet Climate Chaos Coalition (CCC) protesters who had gathered outside his Department of Energy and Climate Change offices this evening to urge him to put a stop to the use of "climate-wrecking dirty coal power." He responded to some critical questioning about the government dragging its feet over renewable energy with claims that he was working hard on a similar agenda to the protesters and was very aware of the challenges we face over climate change. Other speakers at the vigil included Ashok Sinha, Director of the Stop Climate Chaos Coalition, while Christian Aid provided a fine campaigning choir in clerical garb which performed a number of well known tunes with new climate-friendly lyrics which others present joined in - and for once everyone was really singing from the same song sheet. The coalition involves virtually all of the major environmentally concerned groups in the UK, including Friends of the Earth, Greenpeace and the Campaign Against Climate Change, as well as faith groups, aid agencies and many others - a total of over 100 organisations with a total membership of more than 11 million.
