4.4.07 A22

Climate change campaigners the Global Warming Alliance held a Blue Ball at the Wentworth Club in Virginia Water on Saturday, March 24th.

The glamorous event was the social launch of the GWA which aims a series of initiatives to raise public understanding of the climate change problem and support for action. Global Warming Alliance chairman Donald Burfitt-Dons gave a short speech to introduce the NGO saying ‘we now know that the world’s oceans are indeed warming and at a faster rate than IPCC scientists have been predicting’ and showed a graph of the Alliance’s research demonstrating how ‘hurricane intensity has broken out of the range which has prevailed for the last half century’.

The blue theme, to symbolise the planet from space and the colour of the skies from earth was the colour of the evening with the ladies wearing long blue gowns.
