An Invite to All from Extinction Rebellion Niagara, a group of Niagara area citizens calling for urgent action to address the climate crisis

Posted August 23rd, 2019 on Niagara At Large

EXTINCTION REBELLION NIAGARA (XRN) INVITES YOU TO THE ST. CATHARINES FEDERAL ELECTION CANDIDATE (CONSERVATIVES, GREENS, LIBERALS, NDP) CHALLENGE ON THE CLIMATE

PURPOSE – Extinction Rebellion (XR)   is extremely concerned about the imminent climate collapse that virtually the entire scientific community, including  the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), is warning us about.

This concern is acutely heightened because of the dire consequences that this collapse is already beginning to have on the entire world, especially the most marginalized. Our security and, much more so, that of our children and grandchildren are immediately at stake.

About Extinction Rebellion (XR) –

To get a fuller understanding of Extinction Rebellion (XR), you are invited to visit https://extinctionrebellion.ca/ . This short note is an attempt to offer some very basic understanding of it.

XR is demanding VERY urgent changes in national and international policies that have completely denied and even lied about  the Climate Crisis for at least four decades, which has led to the present “do or die” state of affairs.
