Urban Eco Tour 17th July 2010

This urban eco tour is a walking tour and also a crash course in environmental issues in two and a half hours! We’ll visit Trafalgar Square, Whitehall, Horse Gaurds Parade, the gorgeous St James Park (even better in the sun!), The Cabinet War Rooms, Westminster Abbey, The Houses of Parliament and The River Thames.

The walk explains how these places and London impact on the global environment in terms of population, traffic, emissions, and water levels.

Then we’ll all go to the nearby pub to mull these over a beer – much discussion guaranteed !!

MEETING POINT

Trafalgar Square, Westminster, London.

On the raised level at the glass lift box near the 4th Plinth. Opposite the National Portrait Gallery, Trafalgar Square, i.e where the big green arrow is pointing in the picture

A plinth is a thing that holds up statues (big ones in this case!) The nearest tube is Leicester Square or Charing Cross.

I will be holding the clearly marked "Green London" Folder.
