“It has been clear for decades that the Earth’s climate is changing, and the role of human influence on the climate system is undisputed” – the United Nation’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Working Group I Co-Chair, Valérie Masson-Delmotte.
A Brief One from Doug Draper at Niagara At Large
Posted August 30th 2021
Along with addressing and recovering from the health and economic toll caused by this pandemic, no challenge facing us now and in the future is more in need of attention than climate change.
If the destructive winds, floods, droughts and wildfires that are causing so many trillions of dollars of damage this summer alone, is not enough to bring that point home, then nothing will.
We are federal election in Canada. For all of our sake, please get engaged. Do your homework and vote for the party that has the most effective plan to address this climate crisis now.
Demand a full and uncompromising commitment from candidates running in your riding for climate action now!
We can’t afford any more destructive wildfires like this in northern Ontario and western Canada –
And we can’t afford any more flooding like this that we have suffered along the shores of Lakes Ontario and Erie in Niagara like this –
