CAMPAIGNERS were feeling blue as they tried to raise awareness of global warming and the fight against it.
People dressed in blue and surrounded York Minster on Saturday morning, as part of the International Day of Climate Action. It was to highlight Christian support for the United Nations Climate Change Conference, happening in December in Copenhagen.
The Wave – a ring of people wearing blue to symbolise the key role of the world’s oceans in the conservation of the environment – was co-ordinated by a coalition of organisations including the Catholic Agency For Overseas Development (CAFOD) and Christian Aid.
