The Wave march crosses the squinty bridge

Faith leaders and politicians led a march of 8000 people through Glasgow to demand action on climate change. The march coincided with the the United Nations climate conference in Copenhagen, where world leaders are meeting to discuss climate change and agree measures to limit the impact. The Glasgow march took place at the same time as similar events in London, Belfast, Dublin, Paris, Brussels and Berlin.  The march, known as ‘The Wave’, made its way from Bellahouston Park over to Kelvingrove Park, where faith leaders including Cardinal O’Brien and Osama Saeed from Glasgow Central Mosque addressed the crowd.
