You are invited to bring any placards inspired by Thay’s teachings or similar, vegan packed lunch and an alarm clock set to go off at 1.00pm to remind leaders that time is running out.
This has been inspired by the Plum Village Earth Holder call to action – Give Mother Earth the next 18 Months.
With Love
