Ben Bradley is cycling to Copenhagen
I’m a pragmatic kind-of fellow and having understood a little about advocacy and campaigning as part of my time working at an international relief and development charity, I thought it was right to offer my time and enjoyment of cycling to the cause.
I think we can all see that I couldn’t exactly justify flying out to Copenhagen for the COP15 event. It was for this reason that my employers The Methodist Church of Great Britain had been put off sending a representative. So I offered myself and teamed up with Christian Aid who have pooled together 30 or so other passionate folks to cycle there as well.
I do think the time is now, I do think it will be hard to implement, I do have hope that there is going to be the political will to sign on the dotted line, and I know that people are already suffering and dying because we haven’t already acted decisively on this.
