Put a knot in it

Sign up to the Great Cut the Carbon Shoelace Petition – and turn old shoelaces into a real force for change while you’re at it.

As our Cut the Carbon marchers tick of the miles, we’re asking UK prime minister, Gordon Brown, to cut UK companies’ carbon emissions and take action internationally. We want him to strengthen the upcoming Climate Change Bill and push for other countries to match this at UN talks in Bali in December. 

There are a four ways to sign up.

1  In person

Well, in shoelace, anyway. We want to deliver thousands to the government as a symbol of our demands. 

Send us your used laces. Order a Shoelace Petition Card and return it to Christian Aid with your old lace.

And display your commitment to fighting climate change by replacing it with the ultimate eco-accessory – a Cut the Carbon shoelace! To order one, call 08700 787 788 and quote F1427. Suggested donation £1 per lace.

We also want people to organise shoelace connections in their area. Find out how on our campaigns website, Pressureworks. More…
