Welcome to London Rising Tide

London Rising Tide (LRT) takes creative action on the root causes of climate chaos, and promotes socially just, ecological alternatives to the fossil fuel madness that we're living through. It's part of the wider Rising Tide UK and international networks, and seeks to be part of a growing European and worldwide movement of groups working to dismantle the oil industry and live the future we want to see right now. Find out more about what we stand for.

Occupy London

This past week lots of LRT folk have been down at St Paul's. Have we found religion? No. Have we found an experiment in direct democracy camped in the center of London? Yes. The camp is a starting point, a work in progress, people are bit by bit drawing up plans for an alternative future. We suggest that if you want to see direct democracy in action come down round about 7pm to join in the general assembly. we'll see you there.
