Join us for informal meetings to share your concerns about climate change, wildfires, storms, and flooding and let’s pave the way for impactful environmental actions in Canada.
Have the feeling individual Canadians and workers are not at fault for Canada missing emissions targets? You’re right. Wildfires now ‘explode’ on a regular basis, meanwhile oil & gas companies’ huge profits & pollution hurt your wallet and our climate.
Anyone who has ever lit a campfire knows that the conditions into which a spark enters matter. If it’s dry and hot then fires start more easily, and they burn faster and hotter. Get the facts (with sources) on wildfires and indisputable links to oil and gas corporation emissions here. The burning of fossil fuels made spate of 2023 Canada wildfires twice as likely and:
“Thirteen oil and gas companies operating or based in Canada, including five of the six that make up the Pathways Alliance oil sands lobby group, are on the list of 88 big carbon polluters now being called out for a major share of the forested lands lost to wildfires in North America between 1986 and 2021.”
Free dinner will be provided – because oil and gas CEOs don’t deserve a free meal, but you do.
