宗教領袖於空前龐大的氣候議題遊行示威之後呼籲行動

Hundreds of thousands of protestors marched through cities around the world on Sunday, demanding that world leaders act immediately against climate change.

Shattering the expected turnout of 100,000, an estimated 400,000 people processed through Manhattan alone – joined by UN Secretary Ban Ki-Moon, Leonardo DiCaprio and Al Gore.

In total, more than 2,000 marches took place in 168 counties around the world, ahead of this week’s climate summit in New York.

The New York rally has been described as the largest mobilisation against climate change in history.

Speaking ahead of the march in London, actress Emma Thompson said: “This is important for every single person on the planet, which is why it has to be the greatest grass roots movement of all time.
