Show the Love - 1 - 21 Feb
Show the Love is an annual celebration of everything we care about and want to protect from the worst impacts of the climate crisis. People from across the UK use the power of green hearts to join together and ask decision makers to tackle the climate crisis.
Use your voice to ask politicians to commit to building a cleaner, greener world that works for everyone. Create a green heart display or wear a green heart. More ideas and info at: www.showthelove.org.uk
