Guide To Climate Bliss

A 4ft high ice sculpture of the Prime Minister’s head encased around a first edition, was unveiled on Tuesday, to launch a book about climate change.
The SCC’s, (Stop Climate Chaos coalition) book `I Count: Your step-by-step guide to climate bliss’, will be available in all major bookshops from Thursday, October 19.

SCC also publicised an ‘I Count’ mass public event at London’s Trafalgar Square on Saturday, November 4, on the eve of global climate change talks in Nairobi when thousands are expected to turn out and `be counted’.

SCC is a growing coalition on climate change, bringing together environment and development organisations, unions, faith, community and women’s groups. Members include Friends of the Earth, RSPB, Greenpeace, WWF, Oxfam, Tearfund, Christian Aid, the Women’s Institute and UNISON.

I Count is designed to inspire personal and political action and counter the view that climate change is too big a problem to fix. The campaign has already gained support, from leading environmentalists to global poverty campaigners.

“I Count because the world is facing its greatest man-made threat ever – climate change. Urgent action is needed – by individuals and most of all governments. Without political will, action on the scale required will not be possible.” Sir David Attenborough

“I Count because I care about the millions of people living in poor countries that will be hit first and worst by climate change”. Annie Lennox

The I Count pocket sized book, published by Penguin, outlines 16 essential steps that take you from The Power of Off and Rejecting the Ridiculous, to the Magic of Sharing. It provides practical and entertaining guidance on how people can reduce their personal carbon dioxide emissions, and encourages them to place pressure on politicians to take action too.
