Hey guys, If you're looking for a really memorable trip over the Easter Holidays come and join the Amsterdam Hitch-Hike and raise some money for RAG! Every year the Union picks 3 charities to raise money for through a wide range of activities and events.
If you thought that Hitch-Hiking is dangerous - you're wrong, it is actually a dying art form! OK, that may be pushing it a little, but many student unions have these trips every year and there has never been ONE safety incident. We have lots of safety measures in place so we track you as you go...... and we have a party planned for when everyone arrives in the 'Dam - including the prize giving that includes 2 tickets to the most amazing festival of the summer - Bestival! Wooden spoon or possibly some clogs for last place So grab yourself some mates or come to the meeting to meet people and get more information Wednesday 28th February, 5pm in the UnionPermanent link

The first of February 2007: Participate in the biggest mobilization of Citizens Against Global Warming! The Alliance for the Planet (a group of environmental associations) is calling on all citizens to create 5 minutes of electrical rest for the planet. People all over the world should turn off their lights and electrical applicances on the first of February 2007, between 10.55 and 11am in British Columbia, 1.55pm and 2.00pm in New York, 18.55 for London, and 19.55 for Paris, Bruxelles and Italy. This is not just about saving 5 minutes worth of electricity; this is about getting the attention of the media, politicians, and ourselves. Five minutes of electrical down time for the planet. This does not take long, and costs nothing, and will show all political leaders that global warming is an issue that needs to come first and foremost in political debate.
Why Feb 1? This is the day when the new UN report on global climate change will come out in Paris. This event affects us all, involves us all, and provides an occasion to show how important an issue global warming is to us. If we al participate, this action can have real media and political weight. blogroll & links (what's this?)This member hasn't added any links to their diary's sidebar yet.
