Hundreds Sign Petition As Environmental Campaigners Gather In Market Harborough

Over 350 people signed a petition calling for the government to do more to tackle climate change after environmental campaigners held a noisy gathering in Market Harborough.

Armed with placards and whistles, around 50 people supported the event by the Old Grammer School on Saturday afternoon, which was part of the Global Day for Climate Justice.

The Sustainable Harborough Community group will present the petition to Harborough MP Neil O’Brien next week.

Volunteer Sarah van der Walt told Hfm people can continue to show their support to an on-line version of the petition:
