On 16th December thousands of activists will attempt to take over the United Nations climate summit in Copenhagen for a day and set the agenda. In contradistinction to many of the false solutions in play at the talks, protestors will advance a common sense approach based on the principles of Climate Justice. We speak to one of the activists who has been helping to organise the mass mobilisations with the Climate Justice Action coalition about the planned week of actions. We also speak to a lawyer about the legal context for the protests.
