Activism meets rock and roll this week at the University of Lethbridge's campus pub, the Zoo.

The Highest Degree of Rock event, Thursday, Dec. 10 from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m., features bands Jesse and the Dandelions and Planet Telex . . . rocking for action on climate change. This free show is open to everyone.

Against the backdrop of Canadian representatives attending an international conference in Copenhagen this month on the issue of climate change, an international call to action has been sounded. Highest Degree of Rock, presented by the Lethbridge Public Interest Research Group and the Campus Roots Cooperative Garden, is the answer to that call.

The goal of the international meeting is to cooperatively reduce emissions on a global scale. This event is part of an international call for action on Dec. 11th and 12th put out by various groups dedicated to raising awareness about climate change and the importance of a binding legal agreement at Copenhagen.

People interested in this topic are urged to attend the event, show their support, meet some amazing people, and voice their thoughts on these issues.
