Walk Against Warming - Melbourne 2009

The Melbourne Walk Against Warming took place on Saturday 12 December 2009. 40,000 people participated in the walk which culminated with a human sign that urged world leaders to reach agreement on climate change action in Copenhagen. The sign simply said SAFE CLIMATE DO IT!

Environment Victoria, its Partners and Supporters, would like to thank you for participating. The numbers who attended exceeded all our expectations. Your help is greatly appreciated.

We would also like to extend a special thanks to Victoria Police, for controlling traffic in Swanston Street, and ensuring the 2009 Walk Against Warming was safe for everyone.
