What's the purpose of the ClimateReads group?

• create a forum for discussion, gaining information and new ideas
• provide supporters with the opportunity to draw on powerful new ideas and arguments
• help us all gain confidence when engaging in the broader debate and policy development not only in our own campaigns but more widely with other groups, our local communities, the media etc.
